A/N: Sorry for this delay. Man I wish these school projects and reports
will stop hitting me after I finish one of them. Also I'm spending lots of
time trying to think what will also occur in the next two fanfics,
including the other one that comes after The Sheiug Trilogy. I only
generally have what's going to happen and a bit more, so I need some
thinking time, but I'll try to get this story finished too. Defiantly on
Spring Break (March 15- 19) I will have tons of time to finish these three
final chapters of this fanfic. Hopefully everyone will be patient. Now on
with the story!
Chapter 17- Ham-Ham World (PG-13 somewhere between the middle and end of chapter for graphic images)
"Why...?" Hale then muttered.
The 3 other Ham-Hams, who were once exited to see Ham-Ham World and now saddened, all wondered what was wrong.
"Hale, I don't see anything wrong with the planet." Boss said.
"Look...closer..." Hale slowly said, still stunned from the planet's color. He brought the ship closer to the planet with the Ham-Hams looking closer...and they saw what was negative about the planet's appearance. The brown was actually the ground ripped and scarred with burned houses and trees. The red was the floating clouds that reflected the color of the burning fire scattered around the planet. It brought sadness to the Ham- Hams. They didn't know Sheiug could cause so much destruction in so little time.
"Oh you muszt feel terrible." Bijou sadly said. She felt highly sorry for Hale and couldn't believe that his home was now taken from evil. Hale sighed heavily.
"It's all right, Bijou." Hale responded. "I should've expected more from Sheiug right at the beginning."
The ship was now in Ham-Ham World's ash-filled atmosphere. Dust was flying everywhere, but it didn't cover the scene. It seemed the village was separated in 4 corners by a small and cross-shaped forest, but Hale stayed silent and didn't explain. Trees were damaged. Houses were destroyed. No hamsters could be found anywhere. The ship now landed on a big area of sand and in the middle a tiny piece of grass. In 1 ½ minutes the Ham-Hams were out of the ship. They had never seen such a devastating wasteland. It was shocking. Their jaws were dropped to the bottom of their small necks. Sand flew by them as they just stared at the destroyed area of what use to be a lively place of hamsters.
"This...this is not what you deserve, Hale." Boss angrily said. "Sheiug and Spat are mad hamsters. They think nothing but evil was meant for this universe! If they're dumb enough to think so, then they deserve to die so we hamsters can not have evil disturb our lives!"
Never has Hamtaro or Bijou heard Boss so determined to accomplish something so badly.
"Boss," Hale started. "I know you're tempted to find Sheiug and Spat, but you must control your anger. With these powers, whenever we go angry our own minds will control us and...well who knows what could happen?"
Boss just breathed deeply, which relieved his stress a little. "You're right, Hale. Still, though, where are they?"
Then all of a sudden an evil cackle filled the air. The Ham-Hams all looked around to check if any of the two evil hamsters were there. They only saw the destroyed hamster villages.
"Where are you, you coward?" Hale wanted one of those two to come out. Still the evil cackle played in the brown air. The sound seemed to come from every direction.
"Strange," the evil voice, who was actually Sheiug, began. "You call me the wimp when you're the ones who took so long. Probably so afraid that your hard thoughts of the future held you all back. Maybe you're thinking of dying from a painful death or staying alive but being traumatized from what you might witness Hah! And that's what will happen to you if you enter the hole in front of you."
"Enter wisely..." another voice, obviously Spat, went on. The Ham-Hams then looked in front of them and saw a strange, rusty tube sticking out of the ground. It seemed to have a platform on top of it; probably like an elevator that will take them down to who-knows-where. Though they now knew where to go, they all hesitated to go. What if it was a trap that would lead to their doom? Or maybe Sheiug and Spat really telling the truth and want to fight them face-to-face...but then instantly kill them as soon as the evil hamsters saw the slightest sight of them?
"Oh...I see. Scared again?" Sheiug's voice went on. "You are just pathetic hamsters. You'd be scared if any of you'd find a brown spot on a sunflower seed. I can't wait for long; I can get impatient. Heh heh heh"
"Just shut up and show yourself!" Boss instantly stated. "We're ready to take both of y'all on!"
"Show ourselves?" Spat's voice now said. "But we're waiting for you to show yourselves. Now could you stop standing there like some abandoned seeds? We're getting very impatient!"
"Fine." Hale then responded to the demand. "Just go prepare yourselves. You might expect something more"
"Oh I can guarantee we'll be ready." Sheiug said.
"Very ready." Spat chuckled. Then their evil laughs went on. It was very loud so it heavily startled the Ham-Hams. It echoed all around them. The sound was like everything a hamster feared was circling around them. Bijou wanted to cover her ears from the loud noise. The laughs were probably meant to haunt them and make them scared forever. Slowly, though, the laughter was getting softer and now harder to hear. Soon the noise faded away and now nothing could be heard. Bijou took her hands away from her ears and looked around. Still Sheiug and Spat weren't around. Then they all looked at the tunnel again.
"Are you sure you wanna go in there, Hale?" Hamtaro asked.
"It iz probably a trap!" Bijou yelled and refused to go in there.
"What else can we do?" Hale then said. "I can't just warp us there because Sheiug has some blocking shield on this planet that won't allow us to instantly transport to where he is. He wants us to do things the hard. And if that's what he wants, that what he'll get. It could be freaky, but Ham- hams...follow me!"
The Ham-Hams made scared groans as they followed Hale to the platform that was located on top of the green tube. Soon all four of them stood on it, which was luckily large enough for all of them to stand on. Boss then made a big gulp in his mouth.
"Are you sure you wanna do this?" Boss asked with a sweat drop on his forehead.
"What else can we do?" Hale responded, which made the Ham-Hams shiver with fear, but left Hale silent. Nothing happened for awhile, but the Ham-Hams knew that something unexpected was going to happen. They only wanted to know what. Maybe Sheiug and Spat will instantly pop out of the air and knock them when they're not looking...or maybe they will instantly warp to some place that could lead to death...or maybe something somehow worse. Much worse. The Ham-Hams looked around every direction trying to find anything suspicious. Nothing was changed until...CA-CHINK! The Ham-Hams immediately looked at their feet. They couldn't see it, but some metal claws had locked their selves to the platform they were standing on. Trouble was ahead.
"Uh-oh..." stuttered Boss with a sweat drop." Something tells me we're gonna need some seatbelts on this thing..."
"What's going to happen?" Hamtaro asked very worried.
"Vat vill ve dzo?!" the French Ham-Ham, Bijou, wanted to know with her eyes sparkling from held back tears of fear.
"I think we need to agree with Boss on this one." Hale said, still looking down. He then breathed heavily as he prepared for what would happen. Boss groaned at the thought that his idea was true. Strangely, though, nothing happened for the moments. Still they all kept looking down and wanted to exactly know what will happen.
"What are you trying to do, Sheiug and Spat?" Hale quietly mentioned to himself. Suddenly their questions were answered as the platform they were on instantly went down the tube at 25 miles per hour, which is fast for hamsters. They, even Hale, screamed like in a runaway elevator. All of a sudden freaky music went on and soon Hamtaro, Bijou, and Boss were now screaming in fear as they saw the most horrifying pictures on the walls of the tube they've ever seen. All around the walls were screens that showed black and white and inverted, flashing pictures of Sheiug, Spat, evil cats, a deadly Phantom-Ham, and the scared hamsters would know more if they weren't closing their eyes and holding their paws on them, though still screaming from the suspense of the ride. Hale was now silent on the ride and he had his arms folded and his big eyes staring at the horrific pictures. He knew that Sheiug and Spat are just trying to scare them and make them surrender, but he knew that they should not give up, especially when the future of hamsters lie in their souls now. Now the fast-going platform was taking turns and sharp curves, making the ride as scary and heart-pounding as possible. Only noticed by Hale, the pictures were now changed to a flashing red and white picture of an inverted Spat with his arms folded out. If Hale was photosensitive, then he'd have seizure about now because the red and white colors were heavily bright and were flashing at high speeds. Hamtaro and Bijou were now heard crying.
"Vhen vill zis curszed ride endz?" Bijou yelled out.
"We might stay like this forever!" Hamtaro yelled. It's true that the deadly path was going on for long, though only 4 minutes.
"Please, Ham-Hams, these pictures are fakes and are trying to traumatize us! Just keep calm and everything will be all right!" Hale yelled out.
The scared Ham-Hams, including Boss, then took their arms off their eyes to open them. They learned not to be scared and now got used to the ride's suspense. After sharp turning, instantly the platform bumped onto the ground and stopped, making the Ham-Hams lose their balance and try to get back up. The invisible claws that held them were then heard coming off. They shacked their feet to make sure they were free and then jumped off of what was scarier and deadly then the asteroid belt fly. They all sighed in relief, but were then put back into fear with a gasp. Ahead of them was a long, dark tunnel. The darkness made it seem like an endless tunnel.
"Do we have to go in there?" Hamtaro groaned.
"Unless you want to give up and let the future of hamsters become a life of pain and death, yes." Hale said. It hurt the Ham-Hams a little, but they knew that he was right. They had to control their fear because it was that that held them back during the guardian battles. The Ham-Hams all ticky- tickied their way onto the dark path that, in theory, would lead to Sheiug and Spat their selves. As they walked through the creepy tunnel they looked around for anything else suspicious. If they squinted they could see hamster skeletons put all over hanging on the walls. Even if they tried to whisper, their voice sound would echo all across the tunnel. Soon things got weirder as the air got colder, like a ghost was in the area watching them as they went. They just continued walking, trying to ignore the bizarre occurrences. But then a strange 'whoosh' sound was heard behind them. They all turned around to see if anyone was there. No one. Then the sound of a water drop hitting the ground was heard. This made the Ham-Hams go forward with someone whimpering, but they didn't look to see who. Then Boss squinted his eyes.
"Hey what's that up ahead?" he asked. The Ham-Hams tried to look closer to see what was ahead of them, but they only saw darkness. Hale, however, did see something. The image was so faint due to the enormous darkness, but he could tell that it was a door. He knew it was. He then held up his hand and out popped a small electric ball. He then instantly threw it to the area in front of them. The flying ball's bright light lit up the area it was going as it kept going and going...until it was near the end and a red door could be seen. Hale then raised his hand and made the ball disappear.
"Hams, I think we've found our last stop!" Hale yelled. But before anyone could cheer, a loud and rough 'grr' noise was heard behind them. Again they turned around, but this time something was there. It was a gigantic ghost form of a huge cat. The Ham-Hams were now scared again. The ghostly cat meowed loudly with its deadly mouth and teeth that looked like dripping glue.
"RUN!" Boss yelled out. Soon all four of the Ham-Hams were running as they tried to get away from the cat ghost, but it just glided across the air and chasing them at higher speeds. They all panted and raced for the unseen door that was ahead of them. The ghost sided to the left and right, but stayed in a straight path on chasing the escaping hamsters. The door now seemed farther away than they expected. The ghost then roared out an unnatural growl that sounded like a mad lion.
"Why won't you go away?!" Boss yelled at the ghost, which did absolutely nothing. They all kept running, but soon saw something ahead.
It was the creepy-looking door, which was finally at sight. The door that led behind it was probably Sheiug and Spat, waiting for them. They all raced for the door with the ghost catching up so easily. A light bulb went on and they were all finally next to the door.
"Hurry open it!" Hamtaro yelled to Hale, who was in front of them all. He grabbed the bone-shaped knob and tried to pull the door open. Nothing budged.
'What? This can't be happening!" Hale thought to himself. He then noticed that on top of the knob was a combination lock connected to the top side of the doorknob.
"NO! The door's locked!" Hale yelled to the Ham-Hams, who were now stunned.
"HEKE?!" they blurted out. Now there was nothing to do. They all slowly turned around and saw the ghost coming right at them.
"Well...bye-q, Ham-Hams." Hale gulped. The Ham-Hams all closed their eyes and screamed as the cat ghost was now so close to them. It would be any minute now that their death occur. All of this time trying to stop two evil hamsters from dominating the hamster universe: wasted. Now they would be in Heaven, the place where all good spirits are sent, and all watch with tears coming down as they, Sheiug and Spat, succeed in making a new and evil hamster world. They now felt the ghost coming. This was it. It was time for their unexpected death to come. Any second now... now something was felt from the hamsters. But it wasn't pain or suffering...it was the wind flying away. They all slowly opened their eyes and saw no cat ghost.
"What the...?" Boss just stuttered out. Hamtaro and Bijou just had their jaws wide open. Instead of death they got a very unfunny joke. Even Howdy couldn't have made such an ugly prank.
"We've been tricked again!" Hale complained. "I should've known from the beginning. All these times it looked like we were about to die but it was just glimpses of what we would see when we face Sheiug and Spat."
"YES!" Bijou cried out happily by jumping into the air. "Ve didzn't zie!" Without her expecting it, she instantly hugged Hamtaro, not knowing that Boss was watching. Hamtaro blushed at what Bijou just suddenly did. Bijou then realized what she did and let go of Hamtaro, trying to cover her red face. It was shame, though, that Boss saw that too, who was now concerned.
"Sorry about zat, Hamtaro." Bijou explained. "I guess I got tzoo exictzed."
"It's okay, Bijou." Hamtaro forgave her. "Hamsters can sometimes get too happy at times." Both hamsters were now blushing and then looked at Hale, who was now trying to figure out the code to unlock the code by some how' mind hacking' through the combination lock and trying to find the exact code.. Boss just stood there, not believing what he saw from Hamtaro and Bijou.
"No. Can it be?" he thought to himself. "It just can't be like this. How could Bijou love a hamster like him? I'm much more attractive and deserve her more! How could he win her? Maybe my mind is just messing with me. Still I guess I'll have to keep an eye on those two. Ya never know what could happen..."
Hale then sighed heavily. Boss then snapped out of his trance and paid attention to Hale. "I just can't seem to get this lock out of here!" he said. "I just don't understand. I've already searched through the lock telepathically about twenty times and I still can't find the..."
But before Hale could finish, instantly the lock somehow unlocked itself and fell to the ground. Strange that that could happen because at that moment Hale wasn't toughing the lock.
"So...is this it?" Hamtaro asked, obviously already knowing the answer.
"Yes, Ham-Hams...the reason that we all came to this planet for." Hale said. He then inhaled and exhaled deeply. He had to calm down because only Ham-Goddess knew what lied behind the door, but they all knew what would be there. Hale then slowly opened the door and they all looked inside. Now it was one hundred percent pure black darkness. Absolutely nothing could be seen.
"Come out, you freaks..." Boss whispered. They all slowly walked through the darkness, but only a few hamster feet away from the door. Nothing was seen. Nothing was heard. But suddenly, a bit expected, 2 large, red eyes were glowing ahead of them. Their minds were now filled with shock. It was Sheiug himself, staring right at the hamsters.
"Welcome...:" was all he said. The door behind them then instantly closed and became locked. Now only the future would tell which team would have triumph.

"Why...?" Hale then muttered.
The 3 other Ham-Hams, who were once exited to see Ham-Ham World and now saddened, all wondered what was wrong.

"Look...closer..." Hale slowly said, still stunned from the planet's color. He brought the ship closer to the planet with the Ham-Hams looking closer...and they saw what was negative about the planet's appearance. The brown was actually the ground ripped and scarred with burned houses and trees. The red was the floating clouds that reflected the color of the burning fire scattered around the planet.

"Uh-oh..." stuttered Boss with a sweat drop." Something tells me we're gonna need some seatbelts on this thing..."
"What's going to happen?" Hamtaro asked very worried.
"Vat vill ve dzo?!" the French Ham-Ham, Bijou, wanted to know with her eyes sparkling from held back tears of fear.
"I think we need to agree with Boss on this one." Hale said, still looking down. He then breathed heavily as he prepared for what would happen. Boss groaned at the thought that his idea was true.

"NO! The door's locked!" Hale yelled to the Ham-Hams, who were now stunned.
"HEKE?!" they blurted out. Now there was nothing to do. They all slowly turned around and saw the ghost coming right at them.

"It's okay, Bijou." Hamtaro forgave her. "Hamsters can sometimes get too happy at times." Both hamsters were now blushing and then looked at Hale, who was now trying to figure out the code to unlock the code by some how' mind hacking' through the combination lock and trying to find the exact code.. Boss just stood there, not believing what he saw from Hamtaro and Bijou.
"No. Can it be?" he thought to himself. "It just can't be like this. How could Bijou love a hamster like him? I'm much more attractive and deserve her more! How could he win her? Maybe my mind is just messing with me. Still I guess I'll have to keep an eye on those two. Ya never know what could happen..."
Hale then sighed heavily. Boss then snapped out of his trance and paid attention to Hale. "I just can't seem to get this lock out of here!" he said. "I just don't understand. I've already searched through the lock telepathically about twenty times and I still can't find the..."
But before Hale could finish, instantly the lock somehow unlocked itself and fell to the ground. Strange that that could happen because at that moment Hale wasn't toughing the lock.
"So...is this it?" Hamtaro asked, obviously already knowing the answer.
"Yes, Ham-Hams...the reason that we all came to this planet for." Hale said. He then inhaled and exhaled deeply. He had to calm down because only Ham-Goddess knew what lied behind the door, but they all knew what would be there. Hale then slowly opened the door and they all looked inside. Now it was one hundred percent pure black darkness. Absolutely nothing could be seen.
"Come out, you freaks..." Boss whispered. They all slowly walked through the darkness, but only a few hamster feet away from the door. Nothing was seen. Nothing was heard. But suddenly, a bit expected, 2 large, red eyes were glowing ahead of them. Their minds were now filled with shock. It was Sheiug himself, staring right at the hamsters.
"Welcome...:" was all he said. The door behind them then instantly closed and became locked. Now only the future would tell which team would have triumph.

A/N: Whew! All right only 2 more chapters and part 1 of The Sheiug Trilogy will be finished. Also if you want to see the reference of what the Ham- Hams saw on those walls when riding in the tube, go here:
Click on Video, which is on the left side of the menu, and then click on the black and white image of the possessed girl. Make sure you have QuickTime Player to view it, though. Also the music you'll hear isn't the one I planned for that scene, but it will have the same feeling. Also be warned...what you're about to see has been cut from theaters because it was, err...too scary for audiences. You've been warned...
