Wow. We received over 120 entries for this contest and after much work Kathleen and Kelly were able to narrow it down to two winners!
Kathleen’s Winner:
By Kiyote
The bus kicked off into light speed, the stars around them blurred, and time crawled to a standstill.
A writhing mass of tentacles poured forth as the great Cthulhu came into view.

Kelly’s Winner:
By Daniel Brown
If accelerated to light speed, the Desert Bus would complete it’s journey approximately 448254 times per second.

Damnit, Matt.
