Amazon Warrior Priestesses

Tom Ball (from Tales from a Remote Distance, Vol. 3)

    And Ben told me, “When the clock struck 24 our World would be attacked by foreigner pirates and for my own safety, I should work together with them and help them take control.” “Who are these marauders?” I asked. He said, “They are a large group of Amazon warrior priestesses.” And he said, “He was working together with them to overthrow the government of our Planet.” I asked him, “Why?” He replied, “Our government is debauched and corrupt and don’t care about the people, just care about their own Virtual Reality. They consider themselves to be dreamers, but they are selfish and power-crazed in their own Worlds. We need fresh blood.” I said, “But it was treason!” He said, “No risk, no gain.” And I didn’t care for our government, I knew it was in a state of anarchy. And most of the people were depressed and impoverished and desperate. So, I joined Ben. And sure enough, the Amazon warrior priestesses attacked the Capital and executed the former leaders who were so out of it on drugs and dreaming that they put up no defence of our World. But to Ben’s and my surprise they then started killing off all the men, including Ben and I, and as we died, we both wished we’d played it differently, but perhaps it was just venomous destiny.
