SMILIES REVENGE
Once upon a time, there was a bandicoot called Crash. Now, this marsupial as such wasn't so much a bandicoot as he was a moving earthquake, because whenever he touched anything it just exploded into a million tiny pieces of dust like a balloon full of candyfloss. Aku Aku would have been rendered into splinters by now, if it weren't for his ability to move swiftly away from any life form approaching him. Only that little did they know - that Crash had a match. He had a rival - a bunch of rivals, in fact.
"Smilies", sometimes called "emoticons", are somewhat crude little creatures. Sit they will in the middle of cyberspace, locked up in a post stuck upon a cheap message board. Smilies bred by being created by humans - typing in something of a small symbol or two generated them. And once there were enough of them, they had the ability to freeze any PC with their almighty girth. Being 2D, they could easily be folded away into a person's pocket for extensive use later on.
One day, Crashie met his match. Whilst quietly strolling down a lake, his round, green eyes caught sight of something BIG. And plastic. No, hold on... it was a computer! Personal Computer, the folk called it. So, Crashie took hold of it, and typed in a load of gibberish with his teeth. It turned out as Crash Place and after stupidly hitting the enter button, Crash was warped into the monitor, right into the world of Crashiness...
He did, of course, try to redeem himself as Crash there, but none of the posters took any notice, instead seeing him as a spammer or shameless advertiser bloke. So, he looked around for interesting topics. He spotted quite a few, including this fan fic voting poll thing, which wasn't a poll at all (just a topic). Then - then - he noticed the biggie.
Labelled "Smilies Revenge!" and created by this MRacer bloke, this was one tantalising topic. So he clicked on it. Yet he was dazzled instantly by tons of horrid, modem-grinding smilies. Lightning struck behind him, and all of a sudden he was warped off to the shoddy world of Automobile Online. IT WAS HORRIBLE!! Crash and the rest of his thick species got killed off and by the end of the year 2050 Traveller's Tales had forgot Crash Bandicoot existed. End of story.
