Well, here is the story I've been working on for about five months. I've done 17 chapters and I hope that you like it.
PROLOUGE
Time cannot go with out Earth and Earth cannot go without Time. Time is black and Nature is white. But what about the small grey area no one notices? The small grey area that is prophesised will be defeated as the 21st Century ET begins…That small grey area is evil.

The old, grey man sat with his hands folded staring at the giant clock as it swept from second to second, minute to woeful minute.
Beside him a tall, graceful lady stood proudly; head held high as she twisted her hands silkily.
“Tell me? Why is it the women that get the best job?” Time said. He tilted the knob at the back carefully so the second hand advanced a few dots, he stared straight at her.
“You have the Clock of Time and yet you sit beside it as if it is a mere toy created by the wise but naïve humans.” She retorted, her voice was smooth and her features were as stunning tall with straight black hair and lively green eyes and an upright, pointed nose she was simply beautiful.
Time grumbled ad stroked his long beard. Mother Earth was right, the Clock of Time shone brightly gold lined up against silver seemingly racing to touch the number 12 first.
Time was about to adjust the clock so the New Year would begin when he stopped.
“Earth, look at this. Quick, look at this!” Time shouted. The Clock was glowing brightly. The gold and silver lines shone brightly this time actually racing, hitting the 12 and illuminating the rest of the numbers. As soon as the numbers were illuminated the Clock turned into a mirror and Time and Earth could see two babies covered in blood wailing at the top of their lungs. Each fighting for the attention of their mother.
Time and Earth looked at each other and smiled softly. Time’s wizened face whispered softly: “Kiam.” Earth glanced at her companion and said, “Jo.”
Time’s face slowly began to lose its colour; suddenly a thought dawned on him. Could something really disrupt the Ceremonial Birth? The same message seemed to have been relayed in Earths thought as she gasped and twisted around in the small white room they were in.
A gold and silver door leading to who knew where was pounded on.
A slow voice drawled, “Time I know you’re in there, you too Earth. Give yourself up, I mean now!”
Time shouted and drew a long staff while Earth continued shouted.
“Time cannot go with out Earth and Earth cannot go without Time. Time is black and Earth is white. But what about the small grey are no one notices? The small grey area that is prophesiesed will be defeated as the 21st Century ET begins…That small grey area is evil. The boy has been named Kiam and the girl Jo…”
There was silence, Time was gone. Suddenly a lightning bolt struck the Clock of Time and it shattered. Earth screamed and then she was gone…Silence.
CHAPTER 1
The green spaceship floated about for a second before it was jet-boosted; narrowly avoiding an incoming asteroid it flew steadily past Mars and looped-de-loop around Jupiter.
Kiam whooped as he made it to Uranus, pausing the game, he left the bedroom he was in and jumped down a flight of stairs and turned to the room on the left of the corridor.
“Jo! Guess what.” Kiam said to the blond girl who was watching a TV show. Jo turned on her brown haired brother and said, “Are you dieing, stupid.”
“No, I aint stupid, I travelled round the Solar System: Uranus to Uranus!” Kiam shouted excitedly. Jo stood up to her graceful height and slowly drawled up to her brother. “Tell me Kiam, how long does it take to travel round the Solar System?”
Kiam went on tip-toe so his eyes were level with his sister’s nose. “A few hours.”
Jo laughed and shooed him out of the living room. Kiam shrugged and went back to his bedroom. He was an excellent drawer and his room was filled with blown-up pictures of an old man and a tall graceful lady. Kiam had no idea were they had come from. They had always been in his head, since the day he was born.
Jo is just a grumpy sop, Kiam thought, all books and no games. He returned to his game and spun around Saturn twice for extra points. He was about to fly straight into Pluto to enter the portal back to Earth when a large object appeared on his radar.
Thinking of it as just a passing meteor he continued straight for the planetoid.
“The thing on your radar is the Halley Comet, I’d watch out if I were you.” Jo said suddenly from behind him. Kiam glanced at her and when he turned back the screen went blank.
GAME OVER – YOU GOT HALLEYED.
Kiam groaned but his suffering was eased when they heard their mum call them. Jo followed a reluctant Kiam as they slouched their way down the stairs.
Their mum- fierce red hair with pale, grey eyes- was waiting for them as they entered the dining room. She was with a young man who was obviously uncomfortable. Changing his posture, coughing unnecessarily, he’s afraid. Jo thought, smiling inside.
Kiam turned her attention to their mother. She smiled nervously.
“Kiam, Jo, I’d like you to meet your father.”
