| Terry bunked
off school as you do when you're at that rebellious age
(12 - 18 as I recall) and you just feel like doing your
own thing instead of sitting in class all day. He was
relaxing on a bench in the park where he normally went
to when he bunks off (usually Tuesdays and Wednesdays,
but every once in a while he'd slip a Monday or Friday
in there too). He woke up suddenly (he had fallen asleep)
to realise that the sun was already setting. It was getting
late. "It's getting late," Terry thought, not
coincidentally. However, as he gazed up at the sky, he
noticed a shining light of some sort... |
| |
| The light caught
Terry's attention for the very simple reason that tiny
green crystals were falling out of it. Like rain, except
green and made of crystal (he was later to find out). |
| |
| Before long,
a space ship Terry had never seen before descended from
the sky (though it should be noted that Terry had never
before seen any space ship in real, close up). Out of
the ship stepped an old man in a labcoat. |
| |
| "Hey,
don't touch that," said the old man from space. "Give
it here, boy." |
| |
| While
Terry sat startled at this strange old man in a mixture
of confusion and perplexity, another light streaked
from the sky (this one red) as if chasing the previous
flash which was clearly the professor's ship. |
| |
| The
space professor tensed, "....watch out! Quick,
get inside!" He directed Terry into his spacecraft. |
| |
| Terry
rushed inside, as instructed. After an intense chase
through a small corner of the galaxy, the ship took
critical damage and fell to an unknown planet. |
| |
| The Professor
had only one place to turn. You, the player who has
purchased Contact for his or her Nintendo DS! Hopefully,
that player (you) will agree to help the Professor
and Terry... |
| |
| Terry's
mother was at home the entire time, cooking a lovely
family dinner and utterly oblivious to the fact that
her son had ditched class yet again and was now on some strange and far off planet in a crashed space ship. |
