Lady Hawke's Spectrum Challenge

To use Ron Embleton's beautiful paintings to create a story for Chris Bishop's Captain Scarlet and the Mysteron's Unofficial Web Site

The challenge: to create a story within which you describe one (or more?) of Ron Embleton's end credit paintings.

Pick a favorite, create a motive, and go with it!

The situation for our dear Captain Scarlet is definitely S.I.R.!!

Don't worry if someone else picks the same painting(s). Each story will be wonderfully and 'Mysteriously' unique. Have fun pitting our favorite indestructible man against disaster. As with previous challenges, please adhere to Chris Bishop's cautions about slash stories and those which do not remain truthful to Gerry Anderson's well-crafted universe. As always, remain respectful to his works.

Stories can be any length and will be posted on Chris' web site starting March 15th, 2003. Like Julius Caesar, who also led a colorful and fateful life, Captain Scarlet lives on through the words of story. Therefore, I say, "Scarlet! Beware the Ides of March!"

What better way to spend a cold winter night than to share a good Captain Scarlet yarn?

Mysterons or not, Captain Scarlet's going to be very busy surviving your challenges to his unique gift.

Have fun!

Lady Hawke
