    The ninja turns towards the police, raises his sword, and starts running towards the police.

    A crow circles above. It is now raining lightly.
    You are beginning to regret having moved to Luton.

      The rain continues and increases in intensity. You have 4 options:

      1 - Remain in Luton
      2 - Leave via Luton Airport and remain off mainland
      3 - Leave via road to the North
      3 - Destroy passport and re-enter country as refugee immigrant to live off generous government benefits, with free housing included.

        Walk away quickly. North will do. Need to get away from the destruction, rain. and psycho-ninija violence. Look for the crow as you walk.

        oh, keep any eye out for any surviving shops that sell pants.

          You see a shop that sells pants - but they are for big fat fatties, only. You buy a pair of beige 100-inch waist slacks, and, naturally, a Gabicci Noel Edmonds-inpired shirt, neck size 35 inches. You have run out of cash. Need to catch a bus now. How do you raise the lolly?

              You hurry North. You are standing by the entrance to the North building. Part of the building has crashed to the floor and there is rubble all around you.
              There is a receptionist casually filing her nails by a big desk inside the foyer.

              To the South, you see the 3 police teams flank the ninja and open fire. The ninja leaps onto the smouldering wreckage of a hover-milk float and launches himself into the air, throwing several shuriken into the first team with deadly accuracy.

              The ninja lands, skids along the floor between the police team leader's feet, sword raised, and flips upright and around, behind the team.

              The team leader falls to the floor in two different directions as the ninja whirls through the second team, sword flashing.

              The remaining police drop their weapons and flee the scene. The ninja picks a few of them off with more shuriken - just for target practice.

              The ninja is wiping his sword clean and humming to himself.

              There are pieces of police, trolls, people and ninjas scattered around the ruined piazza, along with police radios, katanas, shuriken, miniguns, rifles and grenades.

              A crow circles overhead.

              It is raining.

              Your mobile phone starts ringing - the ninja turns in your general direction.

                Do you realize that this is the third most active post in CUK History?

                1. TPD
                2. Word Associations
                3. Am I Going the Right Way?

                Some way to go to move it up the list, though.
