In the beginning the only thing that existed was a spider. That spider grew and grew and grew until he was so fat he became the earth and his legs became the gods. His head also became the sun. One of the god’s name was Zealous and he’s the ruler of all gods. Then there’s the creator and his name is Hy-Ki-Mo. Then there’s the god of after life and the god of evil -- Hades.
Now here’s how the story starts. Hy-Ki-Mo loves making glass figures, so one day he decided to make glass humans. Then after he made two-hundred he decided to go and ask Zealous if he will bring them to life. Zealous said only if you perform two tasks. The first task you must do is build the biggest building and name it the Empire State Building. Next you must make a flag with fifty stars and thirteen strips.
So while Hy-Ki-Mo was gone Hades heard that Hy-Ki-Mo was making humans. So he decided to go over and break some of the glass humans into pieces.
When Hy-Ki-Mo came home he saw that over half of his glass humans were broken.
So Hy-Ki-Mo thought to himself, who could have done this? Well, Hades would be the only one that would do that.
So Hy-Ki-Mo went and told Zealous and Zealous said that we must get rid of him.
Zealous decided to make solders to fight against the evil god Hades.
As soon as Hades heard the news he quickly took all of his power and brought all the dead to life to fight in the war.
So as soon as the sun set behind the mountains the war began.
The war was over quickly with Zealous as the winner.
Hy-Ki-Mo did his tasks (it took many years to finish the Empire State Building) and also built over 1,000 more glass humans to go along with the other ones.
When Hy-Ki-Mo was all finished he went to Zealous and Zealous said you have done well. Now I will make your humans have life.
And that is how the earth became how it is today.
