Summary: The crackening is happening! In the aftermath of being kidnapped and impregnated by an alien race, Howard must navigate the trials and tribulations of being a single father. Luckily, he has Vince and the Shaman Council by his side.
Sighing again, Howard stared out at the sky, resolutely ignoring the chatter and clamor of all the revelling partygoers in the streets below. It was a Saturday night in London town, and it seemed like everyone in the whole city was out with their mates, getting drunk, having fun,getting off . Their existence was alien to a man like Howard, a pathetic 33-year-old virgin who sat on the peaked roof of the little townhouse, silently staring at nothing, all by himself without even the moon for company.
The sound of his self-pitying contemplation was punctuated with a low, thrumming pulse. He assumed it was from the raucous music playing in the flat, or elsewhere in the city, but it seemed to grow louder, the steady hum getting closer and closer. Howard tried to ignore it and resume his martyrdom, but when the roof tiles started vibrating beneath him with the reverberations of the sound, he could ignore it no longer.
Before Howard realized what was happening, the sky turned white. Blindly, he teetered, grabbing at the tile in panic, but it was no use–Howard was airborne. He screamed and closed his eyes, certain that he would fall to his death at the age of 33, before he’d even begun to peak (or lose his virginity, for that matter), but when several seconds passed and he was still airborne, Howard noticed something strange… he wasn’t falling down. In fact, he seemed to be falling up.
Howard screamed again, then passed out in midair. Just before he lost consciousness, he caught a glimpse of a massive silver spaceship, hovering directly above him. Then the world went black, and Howard knew no more.
