Before the Bombing: The Chia Bombers

by Syaron Li

Chia Bombers is one of the hottest games in Neopia, but did you know it's actually historical. Geoffrey the Chia really lived a long time ago, before the year 1. Looking up old phone books in the Neopian Library I found an ancient phone book with his old address in it.

I checked the NeoHome's address in a current book and found it now belonged to a young Kacheek. With my pets at my side, I visited the house. The Kacheek had no idea that his house was the house of Geoffrey the Chia and told us of an old locked chest in the basement. I asked him if we could go and pry open the chest and he agreed. We all gathered around and with the help of a crowbar we pried it open.

Inside lay a book labeled Geoffrey's War Diary. Flipping through it there were several pages missing or to old to read but some of it was readable. The are replicas of the actual pages.

Page 1

Today strange looking Chias invaded my neighborhood holding bomb-firing bazookas. Several friends of mine fell to them and I knew I had to avenge them. Equipping myself with all the Battledome weapons my owner ever bought me, I have decided to go outside and fight for the sake of Neopia. If I survive I will write another entry later.

The next few pages were too old and the ink was smeared but page 4 was readable. Here's page 4.

Page 4

I've run out of weaponry and was forced to steal one of the bomber's bazookas today. Still this must end soon, where are these all coming from? One of the survivors of my neighborhood is a mad scientist, I'll check his place for leads today and write the information he gives me tomorrow.

The scientist told me today that in an attempt to make a device to make NeoPets better in every way he accidentally created a vortex to an alternate universe with its own Neopia. He said all NeoPets there were evil so he turned the device off, however the device was stolen the night before the attacks began. He had luckily placed a tracker on the device. I'm now going to stop the culprit before any more damage is done.

I found the thief of the machine today. It was a curious Jubjub who liked to goof around and accidentally opened the door to the parallel Neopia releasing millions upon millions of Chia Bombers. I turned the machine off and then realized that all the Chia Bombers had fled, hidden somewhere and was going to strike again someday. While the machine was made of an unbreakable metal I knew it must be disposed of. This will be my last entry, I have found the solution to the problem but I must leave forever to do so. For those who read this, please don't come looking for me, good-bye.

This was the last page in the diary; it left no clue to Geoffrey's current whereabouts. So where is Geoffrey, did the parallel Neopia have more evils and possibly a parallel Dr. Sloth who was good, these are only a few of the many questions left unanswered by this diary. The answers will only be told through time.
