the council of of ten sat down for the first time in several hundred years, each elder was responsible for one aspect of reality. each one knowing of the golden strands threat. "ah... asteroth, i see that three of your assistants are not present during.... no four now... i wonder what could have happened to them?" the grand overseer said without hesitation. "it is the golden strands my lord, theyve over taken my realm... i fear that not even the vigilante group who is currently fighting the threat of the golden strands will be enough to statiate the situation." asterroth said, his mind a buzz with the problems of his realm. "well, what do you suppose we can do? it seems that the pentulma have already taken steps towards giving them the help they required, although with their track record as of late... it would be in our best interest, and the interest of all those who have... survived the catastrophic events thus far, to seek our advice. talmos, do you have a bearing on where they are at the moment?"

telmos, a floating brain like thing with wires and snowglobed glued onto his front for no other reason then for decorative purposes hummed silently for a few minutes before speaking. "no. i do not." "you arent very helpful are you?" the brain floated away before jerkily coming back, thick black string penetrating out of one of his snowglobes. a new voice emerged from the flailing threads. "i do beleive we are in more trouble then i thought my brothers. my name is barney fife, and i am the puppet king."

morgan and caasi had been waiting at the grey hole for several days when the creatures and resaec popped out of the portal of screaming shadows. "NEVER DO THAT AGAIN!" resaec said furiously to morgans amusement. "ITS CALLED THE PORTAL OF SCREAMING SHADOWS FOR A REASON JIM! YOU ARENT SUPPOSED TO COMFORT THEM!" now it was caasis turn to laugh. but her thoughts turned to another surprising thing. "wheres the inner beast?" she said simply. resaec huffed away at the cold air, turning his right hand over to notice that he had been infected by a spiderweb like patter of golden strands. 'how could this have happened? i need to tell mrogan and the others quickly if i am to... no... i wont burden this news to them as well.' he thought to himself sadly. the worried look on his face didnt get past caasi though. "resaec? whats wrong?" the overlord of the nightmare dimension simply turned his banck to her, hiding his hand as he did so.

"othing is wrong iwth me that i cannot fix myself." morgan took no notice of this and simply looked towards the grey and psoke. "ok, were all here methusela... except for thei nner beast, but im sure shell outlast the golden strands. what the-" he was interrupted when a puppet on thick back threads slowly grew from the ground, it was in the image of thei nner beast. it shivvered every once in while, making a clattering noise as it did so. "dont worry, she is with the puppet king. i must go, my king is conversing with the council of ten. they will know what to do." the puppet then exploded, sending peices flying outwards, some landing in the grey hole itself. "ok... that was... NEVER MIND! every one here that out to be here?" there was a general agreement amongst everyone. "hold on... that puppet just now?" caasi said concerned about the inner beasts where abouts, "what did it say about the inner beast?"

morgan gave her a weary look, his eyes told her all she needed to know. 'it said shes with the puppet king, not to worry, and that something about the council of ten.' caasi shrugged. "can we finally cross into the damned grey hole already? me and her have been waiting for what seems like forever now, and franly, even though it was fun, i really dont want to be eaten by the golden strands!" the creatures and resaec nodded slowly on that point. "ok, well cross over... hoefully we dont regret this." caasi was powerless to change their minds. she wanted to wait for the inner beast, but knew the others woldnt wait forever. "alright... i guess ill come along too." "good, because i owuldvej ust picked you up and carried you through the grey hole myself anyways." morgan said with out much thought.

as they got nearer to the grey hole, they realized that it was a lot bigger then they originaly thought. "WHAT THEH ELL IS IT WITH EVERYTHING BEING SO FUCKING BIG!?" morgan shouted in aggrivation. "dunno, but were here at any rate." jim said non chalantly. caasi and resaec had been talking amongst themselves, and general became better aquianted with each other. resaec learned of all the adventures that she and morgan had been through, and caasi just learned the only thing about his castle, was that it was devoured by the golden strands. "yes.. that is theo nly thing new that has happened, that and this." he snapped his fingers, and two clones popped into existence, walking on either side of jim. "you just had to summon those things near me didnt you?" the creature said, slightly annoyed.

barney fife extended a hand out to the inner beast, who was back in control temporarily. "whats happening to me?" she asked to barney, who knew the pain of rebirth. "from what i have learned in my time with the great mouth, ifghting the creature, and some time with morgan, howeverl ittle that might be, it seems that you and sarah are starting the seperating process." the inner beast looked panicked, the right eye looking aorund franticaly while sarahs left eye and part of her cheek and forehead simply stared stright ahead. "what can i do!? YOU HAVE TO HELP ME!" she panicked she she clawed at her metal skin, with little effect. the peices she tore of only slipped back onto her body like watter through her fingers. barney fife looked sadly upon the inner beasts predicament and sighed. "the only thing i can do at this moment, is take you back to the creatures themselves. they have had this experience when they were the single beast."

the inner beasts right eye became clear and revealed sarah right eye, who had now taken control. "you mean to tell us, that the only way we can do this is with the help of the one guy not here at the moment?" the inner beast took control as grnuals of her body began slipping off her person and forming a cloud four feet above her. "yes. now hurry, we havent much time." barney fife was about to open a portal when a single pentulma appeared before him in a puff of cherry scented smoke. "i have decided to give you a new title, befitting your current power level. this caught barney off gaurd as he questioned whether or not this was actually the time to do this. "i dont mean to rush, but we have a situation h-" "i am well aware of the situation at hand, the human and heri nner beast are in the process of seperating, just like thel ost wolf did those many centuries ago."

morgan and caasi were laying next to each other under neath a thick blanket of fog graciously given by the grey hole. "what do you think lays beyond the grey hole morgan?" caasi asked worried at what they might find on the other side. "dunno, but whatever it is, i do know this, we need to have all our allies gathered. remember that there is strength in numbers." caasi seemed agitated by morgans lazy view on things. "what do you mean!? we have a chance to get away from resaec flaoting, literally fourteen feet away, and youre just oging to wait for him!?" morgan nodded slowly as he got up to stretch, his clothing appearing on his person as if they had never been taken off. "yes caasi, that is exactly what im saying. you know what he is, and the fact that he doesnt die should be enough to tell you he is a valuable ally at this point. besides... weve killed him over three hundred different times.... and the fucker still wont die. hesl ike a cockroach, they are fucking invicible! so why wouldnt we want him on our side?"

caasi saw the logic in this, but she knew what he was like. "well, what if i odnt want him to go with us?" she asked pointedly. "then.... tough... remember, im in charge here, so-" "WHOS IN CHARGE!?" caasi asked angrily, shooting straight up and waving a finger in her husbands face. "i am. like it or not, we may be married but it has been my strength-" "YOUR strength is how you almost ended up dying five times in a row? remember resaec nearly killed you? it was only because you had that doem and the beast that saved your ass! not once have i ever seen you win a fight with out using some help morgan, not once!" morgan saw her point, but stood by his. "we may be married, but ive still managed to rescue you from certain death on a number of occasions. in and outside of the dream and nightmare dimensions. so stop trying to get on my case. i know what im talking about. besides, it seems as though we have another ally with us now wether we like it or not."

caasi was hurt and angry. "well i dont have to like it." morgan nodded his head and focused inwardly. 'reason, i need you to do a round up mission, get all our allies here in a weeks time, it should be easy locating jim, jon, chris and resaec plus thei nner beast, so hop to it.' morgan felt a little bit of anger towards him. 'i dont know if youve realized this or not morgan, but we still have to get twilight taken care of, the fuckers still floating aorund your mind. apparently those things we fought, werent him, they were ismply copies. i have a feeling that theyve been in there holding place this whole time.' morgan wanted things odne fast. they didnt have a lot of time before the golden strads would collapse everything together. 'dont give me that reason, i need our allies here or things are gonna get a lot tighter around here then we would both like them to be. now skiddadle or ill make you skiddadle.' reason grumbled something about making him skiddadle but obeyed none the less.

reason stepped out of morgan with erde and then dissapeared in a puff of cerry scented smoke, its puffs covered in a lsight tinge of gold webbing. "not good. the infections spreading fast."

the creatures each felt ap ulling sensation in the back of their minds that they each knew perfectly well. "um, resaec? we have to get back to morgan, reasons calling us." the overlord of the nightmare dimension agreed. "well, if wem ust, then i suppose we dont have a choice... dying is such a painful process anyways. lead the way." with a snap of his fingers, and much to the creatures delight, the clones melted back into the ground. "we dont have to walk all that way you know." with a snap of his fingers, resaec opened a portal. "which way again? its easier to know the direction."

the green arrows came at the inner beast with lightning speed, nailing her into the ground, each impact had the concussive force of a stick of dynamite. "this is nothing... this is nothing... this is nothing... " she repeated to herself as the great laughed, his army of puppets firing more and more arrows inthe sky. "see now the great inner beast, slain at the hands of those weaker then her! fuego enfocado!" the hail of arrows turned into a strem, each knocking the inner beast into the air higher and higher. 'not good. i odnt know how much i more i can take...' she thought to her self as her body began to fail at repairing the small dents, which turned into bigger scratches, then into holes in the armor which tore apart. "see now the great inner beast, slain by those with greater number in their ranks!" the great mouth cackled as it launched the orb of insects in its great many rowed mouth.

"garras explosivas del enjambre!" the great mouth said smiling as he did so. "it was not a good idea to seperate from your group, i shall destroy you and take over your body, just like i did with -" "barney fife!? little ol me!? taladro de la secuencia!" the skeleton of barney fife, now draped in thick white string slammed into the great mouth, the insects landing in and on barney fife, his empty eye sockets showing no emotion, but his voice telling the truth. "ill handle ol chewy here, you get back to you friends and tell them that-" "FEUGO!" the great mouth screamed, angry at the thought that it would be bested by his own puppet. "trampa de la secuencia de las rebeliones de la marioneta!" barney screamed as the one hundred thousand puppets turned on their former master and launched torrent of white string into the orb of insects that inhabited the center of the mouth. "this shall not stand... i will free you from your bonds to me, barney fife, but in turn, you shall have mastership over this army in the same way i did!"

the black strings which ensnared the puppet army were cut and the strands fell to the ground slowly as they turned white and slammed through barney fife, his own ribcage becoming a spoll of thread, his arms and legs becoming the carrying dimensions for all his armys parts, his eyes andm ind, becoming their eyes and mind. "all this power... will not go to waste." his said, his form restoring itself. his skin segmented plastic, his eyes shiny glass orbs, his mind at the center of his being. "now then..." he said, returning his sites to the inner beast. "where were we?" the inner beast, barely able to hold her form together as it was as chunks of metal fell off her person revealing peach colored flesh underneath. "so the beast has a beauty in it does she?" barney could see sarahs panicked eye darting from one thing to another, her mind still unsure of what she was seeing behind the metal prison of the inner beasts body.

"i... i need help..." barney heard both the voice of sarah and the inner beast say at the same time. "someting isnt right... we should be seperate! not together! SEPERATE!" barney understood the predicament she was in. "let me help you, ill take you to the door of existence, itll know what to do. it help seperate morgan from the beast almost five hundred years ago." barney said, his hand seperating and reeling in the army of puppets at his disposal. "come iwth me inner beast, and i shall teach you things the creatures could not." the inner beasts right eye went blank, flacid, then clear as if made form tempered glass. sarah now had full control over the inner beasts body. her left eye focusing. "i iwll come with you, barney fife. if this means an end to the chasm of non existence then so be it."

jim, jon, and cris were still poking fun at resaec situation after the inner beast had put him through hell. they had crossed many miles of the golden strands, had fought off many enemies along the way, and for some reason, resaec was still the butt of all their jokes. "if i had my army of clones with me, you would be more agreeable iwth me. oh wait!" with a snap of his fingers, resaec conjured two clones into existence, each wearing a golden skull mask over their faces along with a long coat covered in red flames and black clouds. "you summoned us master?" they said with smiles underneath the masks. "yes i did... i want you to enjoy the company our new... friends."

"as you wish master." the creatures didnt know what to expect as they had fought against resaec as the beast, and they all shared the same memories of it all. "well... take it down a notch... just call off yourselves ok?" resaec kept walking along the thick golden strands with ease. "oh.. by all means... do enjoy yourselves. i wouldnt want you to miss out on my jokes as well." the clones walked slowly until they caught up with the creatures. "um.. hi, my name is jon!"

morgan and caasi were still at the grey hole, they had long since decided to go into it, but wanted to spend some quality time together. morgan held his wife in his arms andl ovingly kissed her on the lips, his green eyes closed, feeling the urges that he had not satisfied in a long time. " i want you my love, i crave you, i need you, your breath is like my oxygen..." he said, starting to growl to her pleasure. "aha... so thats what your up for is it?" she said smiling back. they didnt know when they would have this oppertunity to be laone would come again, and they made full use of it.

"taladro de estallido del tifón" barney fife said quickly, the swarms of insects forming a cloud like drill that rammed into the inner beasts massive tank like chest, each explosion knocking her farther back into the golden strand infested darkness. she finally cratered into a leftover piece of land that was covered in the deadly fires of the burning chasm. the drill whirred madly as the insects dove and exploded with unimaginable force into any depression they could find, the inner beasts mind racked with searing pain as she endured the unending attack. the holes where ever they formed were quickly repaired and reinforced, again and again, quicker and quicker until barney fife had seen enough and launched his spider puppet at her, the puppet losing the golden strands thath eld it together. 

"de los olvidos beso muerto!" he screamed as the hundred fangs of the spider puppet sank deep into the armored plating on thei nner beast. the acid already devouring any and all attempts made to repair itself, the fangs penetrating all availible spaces on the inner beasts body, arms and legs. "ha! now feeling the full fury of the great mouth! we shall have-" "WE ARE NOTHING!" the great mouths little versions said furiously. "I AM YOUR MASTER, YOUR BENEFACTOR, YOUR CREATOR AND REJUVINATOR, AND YOU WILL DO WELL TO NEVER FORGET THIS ONE FACT! EYECCIÓN DE LA VIDA!" the great mouth said angrier, "perhaps when i have calmed down, i will return your lifegiving string to you. for now, DIE BARNEY FIFE!" the strings which had held barney fifes body together, which had given him life exploded out of his body, the inner beast was simply amazed at how much string the great mouth had given him as the spider puppet and the swarms of insects had fallen apart and landed harmelessly on and around her. 

barney fife himself fell lifelessy from atop his puppet, his eye falling out of its socket as skin and muscle fell from his bones, revealing a clock work like frame holding him up. the corpse clattered on the golden strands and then slid into the ever increasing darkness. "now then... i shall take my leave of you, i do apologize for my slaves ignorance. but this does not mean i am on your side by any measure. i fully intend on kill you and your friends... sarah." the great mouths said before fading out of sight. "you would do well to train yourself before someone else attacks you... TOO LATE!" 

one thousand puppets leading ten thousand more puppets each marched along the golden strands, each being controlled by hundreds of golden strands. she recognized the puppets now as the deceased from each dimension, demons, humans, and everything else inbetween had been carved up and shunted with the life giving string. they stopped just a mile in each and every direction from the inner beast and their ribs popped open like swivel doors revealing a horrible amount of spines. "thanks to the information i recieved from that earlier fight, i know now how to defeat the undefeatable!" the great mouths vioce said from above her. "there is nothing you are able to do now! FUEGO!" 

the inner beast watched as her view of the golden strands, the darkness that they surrounded, and the view of the great mouth was blotted out by a great green cloud, that was even more deadly the the insect swarm that had previouly been pinning her to the golden strand. 

"i should be-"

barney fife was slammed into the ground, his stitching barely able to keep himself together as the nails of green blood with blue spots stuck him into the ground with great accuracy, "HA! THIS IS YOUR DEVACION!?" the inner beast smiled as she simply pointed upwards. "its not finished yet. " the undead looked up as he saw to both his and to the great mouths horror, that she had shot out four thousand ten foot long pins that were rocketing towards him. "not goo-" the first of the pins shunted its way down barney mouth, effectively pinning him place as the rest slammed through him. 

"does it hurt yet? because im just getting started!" the inner beast said as she ran full force, breaking the osund barrier three times and shot ahead of the shockwaves by one hundred inches. barney struggled against his unbreakable prison with horror as the inner beast of sarah di le sogno dinistia stopped thrity feet away from where he stood. "how about n-" barney fife saw her say the words, but couldnt hear them as three shockwaves slammed into him, the first ripping him from the pins and sending him tumbling through rocky patches that decided to pop up. the second shockwave knocking the pins out of the ground, and the third shockwave slamming the pins into barney fife, effectively pinning him again into the ground as the innerb east claws ripped out of her arms and spun. "TORNADO DEL HIELO!" she screamed, the whirring weapons unleashing wave after earth shattering wave of icicles upon the defensless target. 

"oh yeah!? well my previous attacks were nothing compared to this one! mil marionetas de la araña de la tonelada!"  the ground around barney fife crack and shattered as a robotic siper puppet, complete with black strings attached to the various parts and joints erupted from the ground, barney fife screaming with laughter all the while. "NOW LETS SEE HOW YOU ENJOY MY PUPPETS STRENGTH!" he said with a sad tone of voice. "the great mouth has done much to revive me! and i will not be defeated by such a paltry excuse for the dream dimension monster!"  barney had touched a nerve, if the inner beast had any. the claws in her arms solidified into fifty caliber guns with two hundred round barrels for good measure. "i..." she said as she aimed for the spiders joints with one arm, her legs splitting into four, "am not..." she aimed her other arms at barney fife, the stiching practicly bursting from his body. 

"A MONSTER! tormenta de la bala... fuego!" the barrels on either amr swelled with anticipation as the energy began to gather at the end of the barrels, the inner beasts eyes becoming lightning filled black. "oh... did i touch a nerve!? here let me do it some more! your creation was a mistake! a burden to all! you are a mon-" the energy released, almost as quickly as the spider was able to move, the first round shattered the ground below as it ripped through the robotic spider puppets left legs and tore off part of its butt, revealng the  golden strands that gave it life. "monster!? look at yourself! you used to be nuetral..." she said angrily, her eyes pulling the trigger to the second round, which slammed into barney fifes head full on.

the bullet spun to a stop an inch outside barneys head. "you were saying? the great mouth knows all! the great mouth sees all! the great mouth is right behind you! respiración oral de la muerte!" barney fife screamed at the top of his lungs, theb ullet falling to the ground, only to explode right next to the spiders head, tearing off the thick covering, revealing more of the twisted golden strands. but it was too late. the inner beast had been surrounded by ten mouths that seemed to erupt from the air around her, each with thousands of rows of nashing sharp teeth and full red lips, each with a swarm of insects in the back of its throat, roaring with a collective anger to be released. "enjambre de la condenación!" the zombie said with insanity. the ten mouths released the  insects they carried inside them like flamethrowers, the insects swarming all over the inner beast as she stood still and let them attempt to hurt her.

"bu-" the first two letters were all she was able to geto ut as the insects acted like tiny nukes, pelting her both on the outside and the inside of her body, the force ripping her to pieces, sending chunks of limbs, head, and body alike all over thep lace. "i thought that the great inner beast would be like her brother... how shamefull to be beat so... well this is a great development!" the great mouth started to say, then stopped to watch as chains slinked outwards from the inner beast beating heart and peiced her body back together, the wounds redoubling their strength and becoming impervious to the attack. "enjambre de la condenación!" barney fife said again, the remainder of the insects blasting apart the body before it had a chance to complete the healing process.

"that should take care of her-" "YOU FOOLISH MAN! DID YOU NOT WITNESS HER REBIRTH!?" the great mouth said through his body, clearly angry at his host. "no... i was... hold on a second, enjambre de la condenación!" the zombie said yet again, the body of the inner beast looking more monstrous then it had been before. "that really hur-" she was blown apart yet again and again, till there was nothing left of her but specks of metal in a neat little pile. "you have dissapointed me, my servant. i shall let you realize the error of your ways. look upon you attacks and see that she rebuilds herself again and again. increasing her strength each time she does so. are ou now aware the power that these beasts hold with in them?" the mouth lectured his servant with calm calrity. barney fife watched in horror as he felt a sudden drop in his excitement as thei nner beast loomed over him like a giant meteor on a collosion course.

"enjambre de la condenación! enjambre de la condenación! enjambre de la condenación! enjambre de la condenación! kill her! i dont care how you do it! JUST KILL HER!" the ten mini mouths shot torrents upon torrent of the explosive insects at the inner beast, who was now dangerously close to their master with out regaurd. the swarm that now surrounded the inner beast was fourteen times the size of the first, and three times the amount of the current number of bugs. the swarm formed a hail of mini bombs, each capable of taking out three suns, each more devasting then the last. 

"I SHALL KILL YOU! I SHALL KILL YOU! I SHALL KILL Y-"

Do you remember those wind-up toys, or the cars that needed to be pulled back and let go to move forward.

This is my analogy for tonight.

Those toys can be wound up a little bit and they'll move a little bit, or they can be wound up a lot and they'll move a lot. I remember wanting to wind my car up as much as possible so that it would go really fast, really far. After so much winding, though, the car would start to make this weird cracking noise. At that point, winding more (pulling back further) would be 1) bad because it could break the mechanism inside, 2) pointless because the car won't go any further or faster.

This semester -fall of my junior year- is my busiest yet. I've never been so busy in my life. Aside from anxiety attacks every now and then, I'm even too busy to stress about this stuff. It's kind of ironic. Anyway, I feel like a wind up toy. My mechanism is wound up and very tense/tight. If I'm wound up anymore, I might break.

Colleges are almost like little kids, then, in that they wind us students up way past the point of there being a point in them doing so (I hope that made sense).

Some winding is good. It gets us going. It makes us work.

Too much winding; bad.

I'm kind of interested to see what will happen when my Christmas break finally comes and the winding key is released. Will I be like a car and zoom? Will I be like a McDonald's kid's meal toy and limp around in a circle? Will I be broken?

Anyway, I hope you're getting wound up enough to get going, but not so much that you break.

Thanks for reading :)
