The Thunderbolt!

The myth of monster war god Fuzz and his Thunderbolt

Written by Edmond Antwi

Once upon a time, the Earth was enjoying its many peaceful days of natural balance and harmony, humans enjoyed the bountiful presence of life and all the animals were living out their existence. This was also the time when mankind discovered agriculture that they had learned from the monster goddess Earthia, whom she taught them how to harvest and manage crops to sustain their needs to survive. The monster gods watched and cared for over human kind and all creatures natural and supernatural from their heavenly Monster Realms, and made sure that they were responsible for maintain the natural harmony on life on Earth. Until one fateful day.

A herd of deer was racing gracefully through the woods during the autumn months and their movements bristled the leaves of from the trees. The running of the leaves had gone underway. But suddenly a shade suddenly loomed over their heads, where was that shade coming from, it was sunny and during the midday. But everywhere turned dark. A village of people were stunned by this event and one of the people looked up into the sky and yelled in horror. The sun was eaten up by a strange dark giant spot that had engulfed the sun, and plunged the entire world into perpetual darkness. The people were terrified, how could this have happened.

Suddenly a miniature being sat meditating in the cliffs towards the distant horizon. An intimidating, jet black hooded figure, with dry rock peachy skin with fierce ruby red big oval eyes, a dwarf, with a grim smile and golden flashing teeth, an elderly but a very scary dwarf. Was he the one that was causing the darkness to happen? Indeed it was! For he was a sorcerer, for he was the master of mighty magic, for he was the self-proclaimed lord of darkness, his name was Euruba. He laughed menacingly, as he managed to waver around a wand and he began to expand, he grew bigger and bigger to as high as the tallest and as strong as the strongest oak, he became a giant and he began to stomp around raiding, singlehandedly stealing peoples' foods, animals and causing havoc in unprecedented ways. But what's worse, his brother suddenly emerged, the muscularly stone cold dwarf called Geo, the biggest dwarf they had ever seen and he also became gigantic in size thanks to magic. He emerged from the mountain tops in helping his brother in this beastly campaign to conquer the Earth. He cast a spell to remove every moisture of water from the Earth. The oceans slowly dried up, the river beds, lakes, rivers. Worldwide drought to the extreme emerged.

"Brother!" yelled Geo in triumph "It is done! Together we rule the world as no longer tiny intsy dwarves but as giants' ahaha and soon the Monster Realms of the gods to our liking hahaaha!"

"Indeed brother Geo!" yelled Euruba back with a menacing glee on his face "Mankind! Welcome to the eternal age of darkness and drought hahahahaha!"

The two troublesome dwarf giants could not be stopped even by the most famous, courageous and bravest of human warriors. Many have tried and many failed. They were different to any terrible monsters they had faced before, in giant form they could not be killed by anything solid, nor liquid, the warriors learned, that Euruba and Geo had disguised themselves as two very humble and decently good human beings that had claimed to have done tremendous good in the world and previously tricked the high monster goddess of all creation Rainbow into granting them the mead of invincibility. They drank the mead and according to legend of the mead when they drink it, they cannot be killed or even harmed by anything and everything that is solid or liquid. With this power the cunning dwarves can invade, subjugate everybody on earth under their rule without effort.

In the Monster Realms above the clouds, the Monster Gods and Goddesses witnessed this disaster and they too were soon in danger as Euruba and Geo with their giant armies that they created with their magic to aid them in their campaign - the Shadow giant dwarves and the Mountain giant dwarves. The leader of the immortal monster gods and goddesses, the wise Bubbles was stunned by this news and the impact of the dwarfs' actions and rallied all her brethren together for a massive fight. The Monster Gods and Goddesses, led by the ferocity and courage of the monster god of war Fuzz, were brave in the battle. The gods destroyed thousands and thousands of their enemies. But even they did not stood a chance against the invincible dwarves as nothing can hurt them in their giant form. They cast spells and conjured up new armies. The rest of the gods were captured and imprisoned in the end. Apart from Fuzz in which he discovered in the hallway a helmet that once worn turned him invisible to remain undetected from the villainous dwarves. He rode on a unicorn and escaped out of the Monster Realms.

He ascended up into Rainbow's world, whom she was watching a romantic movie and he interrupted and told her about the situation happening on Earth. Rainbow was outraged, realised how she was fooled and tricked from Euruba and Geo, disguised as men and she soon came up with a plan of her own, she had an idea and forged an incredibly new weapon made out of pure flash of light that has never been seen before....a Thunderbolt.

"It's incredible!" said Fuzz so stunned and amazed.

"The dwarves stated that nothing can hurt them, nothing can penetrate them, but they had left one flaw in their wish that they had had me grant to them. They had stated that no weapon can destroy them that is solid or liquid. This thunderbolt is a weapon that is not solid nor liquid, but pure destructive light energy that is. Use it in the skies and you can send down flashes of lightning that can zap these two dwarves and destroy them in giant forms" said Rainbow.

"Wow! A remarkable weapon! I will use it and save Monster Realms and Earth from catastrophe" declared Fuzz.

Fuzz used the thunderbolt to destroy Euruba and Geo, and destroyed all their armies and the dwarves erected palaces. And it worked! He freed the other monster gods and goddesses and they brought back light and moisture to the Earth. All life and the Monster gods of the Monster Realms was saved. Euruba and Geo wrecked from the chaos and defeated, and back in their tiny dwarf bodies were arrested by the monster gods and summoned before Bubbles when she gathered them round for a meeting.

"I wonder what we can do with them?" she wondered.

"You know what?" said Fuzz "I've always wanted a chariot pulled by magnificent mountain sheep, inspiration from the sheep I've always stood by to gaze at on Earth, they are beautiful creatures. And these two will make magnificent, mighty and powerful animals, with shiny golden horns and red shaggy wools."

"Your wish is grant indeed" agreed Bubbles as the goddess of magic wavered her magic bubble wand and with a flash of bubbly sparkles, the terrified dwarves transformed, into exactly what Fuzz imagined and envisioned. The dwarves were no longer immune to all magic after their defeat and their magic powers granted from Rainbow taken away with authority by Rainbow herself previously before.

"Beautiful!" he chuckled "You have new names now, I shall call you Zeti and Zumma hahaaha how do you like that"

The transformed dwarves couldn't speak but grunted out "baa baa" of frustration and angrily stomped their now hooves. Fuzz grinned even more "Excellent! I believe it's time for a test drive don't you?"

Fuzz dashed into the air riding his chariot pulled by the two massive red sheep, they had no choice but to submit. They will now forever be Fuzz's workhorses and slaves, instead of their independent selves before....their punishment!

Fuzz stormed through the skies while the other gods cheered from below in victory how Fuzz saved their realms and the world, flexing his new weapon the thunderbolt, smears through the clouds, dancing around. Every time you look up in the sky and see thunder and lightning, the thunder...echoes of the roars of two sheep Zimma and Zeti's anger in their imprisonment, and the lightning strikes, from Fuzz's thunderbolt, reminds the people below about the victory of the gods over the forces of the evil giant dwarfs that stalked the land. But most importantly, this myth basically explains how thunderstorms and lightning themselves came into being on the Earth, and will stay from now on, for better or worse, governed by the yellow fuzzy monster of not only warfare but of now thunder and lightning Fuzz himself.
