Before Saviors of the NET:
Human Aquarium!
by Arthur Spitzer
Net.hampton, England --
There was a fishbowl next to the TV. Everyday the fish bowl could feel
the tragic events, the horror, the misery that came from the TV's
screen. Everything about the world seemed wrong. Seemed broken.
The fish bowl wondered to itself as it soaked in the hopelessness. What
could one fishbowl do?
And one day it realized that it would never know what it could do if it
never tried. And so one day it tried.
It changed. Fingers and Toes emerged from the little fishbowl. Then
arms. Then legs. And a body. And all it took was one minute.
It was no longer a powerless fishbowl.
It was an aquarium.
A Human Aquarium!
Later than day...
A man with a great big beard (and kind of looked like a certain English
comic book writer) walked into the home with a big bag of groceries in
his arms.
"Bloody Hell! Who stole my bleeding fishbowl?!!!!"

Writer's Note:
Okay wrote this for the new challenge. Hopefully Tom didn't mean by one
minute to write this in one minute.
Actually had this idea back when Before Watchmen was getting started to
write a bunch of Before Saviors of the Net with each one ending with
Alan Moore raging at the world.
But could never think of any ideas for them except for the Human Aquarium.
If anyone else wants to do a Before Saviors of the NET feel free.
