NOTE:  This post contains some creative writing elements.

With my sanity intact, I am finally able to enjoy a day off.  I had my dentist appointment this morning (hence the title) and my teeth are pretty healthy.  But contrary to the title, the dentist doesn’t bother me at all.  I said “ah…” but not “AHHH!!!!!”

Dark Muse: I’m back!  Tee hee! I found them!

Found what?

Dark Muse:  The two homes that the pretty angel didn’t want!  They’re mine now!  Tee hee!

Says who?  Those “homes” don’t belong to you…

Dark Muse:  Says me!  Tee hee!  I found them myself!  I thought that there was only one home, but I ended up finding two!  Tee hee!

Why would you need an extra Muse clone?

Dark Muse:  So I can do…this!  Watch me!  Tee hee!

*Dark Muse tosses extra clone in the air and flashes, absorbing the extra clone*

Dark Muse:  Tee hee…That was yummy!

That…was not good…

Dark Muse:  Watch what else I can do!

*Dark Muse flashes a dark flash, sprouting two angel wings*

Dark Angel Muse:  I’m a pretty angel, too!  Tee hee!

But how…Where did you get that form?

Dark Angel Muse:  When I entered that pretty angel and she threw me out, I tasted it.  It was yummy so I made more!  A whole lot more!  Tee hee!

Stop…Your voice…It sounds like a chorus of 10,000…

Dark Angel Muse:  I know!  Tee hee!  Isn’t it great?  Time for some more growing up!  Whee!!!  Tee hee!

*Dark Angel Muse’s size increases tenfold*

This is not good at all…

Dark Muse:  This world is not pretty.  I will make it pretty!  Tee hee!

*Dark Angel Muse vanishes in a cloud of smoke*

And what is “Gabrielle” doing at a time like this?

Gabrielle:  Enjoying my own realm.  What does it matter if my realm is not in danger?

Dark Angel Muse:  That pretty angel’s house is not pretty.  I will make it pretty!  Tee hee!

Gabrielle:  That insolent dark cherub.  Where did she get that ability?

She “acquired” it after being in you for a short time.  She also took the two clones that you threw away.

Gabrielle:  Well, if it affects my dwelling place, then this is personal.  Companion of darkness, BEGONE!!!!

Dark Angel Muse:  Tee hee!  That tickles!

Gabrielle:  I SAID…Companion of darkness, BEGONE!!!!

Dark Angel Muse:  Tee hee hee hee!  S-stop it!  Before I have an accident!

Gabrielle:  Why isn’t it working?  YOU!  Simple-minded mortal.  Explain to me why I can’t stop that angelic brat!

Well let me see…One, she possesses the power of two Intangible beings. Three if you count her original form.  And two, she is an angel just like you.  A more powerful one since  she has the power of three Intangibles…

Gabrielle:  Then I need to gather my friends to help me.  Together, we will possess the power to stop her…

Dark Angel Muse:  More pretty angels, tee hee!

*Dark Angel Muse flashes, absorbing nearby angels and flashing even brighter*

Dark Angel Muse:  So yummy!  Tee hee!!!!

*Dark Angel Muse grows again, increasing her size tenfold*

Great.  Now she’s 30 stories tall.

Gabrielle:  And she’s capturing all of my friends!  She’s growing more and more powerful by the second…How can we stop her?

With my Director’s Privileges.  That’s the only way that we’ll be able to.

Gabrielle:  Director’s Privileges?

Yeah.  You should know what they are if you still have my Muse’s memories.

Gabrielle:  Her memories are beginning to fade.  My memories are starting to fully materialize.  Now what are these privileges?

I can pretty much control whatever aspect of this story I want.  Think of it as an “emergency override”.

Gabrielle:  Well use it!  She needs to be vanquished…

Director’s Privileges, ACTIVATE!

*Dark Angel Muse freezes with a flashing force-field around her*

Gabrielle:  That’s not vanquishing her!  What did you do?

I froze her.  She will be unable to move for a full week.

Gabrielle:  But she must be stopped…

Think about it.  If I take her out, all of your other angel friends will be taken out with her.  Is that what you want?

Gabrielle:  No.  I want every one of them alive.  They, like me, were born out of imagination.  They are not like the more powerful counterparts that exist in your world…

I understand.  They are important to you.  Now promise me.  If I save your friends, you will save my world…

Gabrielle:  Agreed.  My friends and my realm for your world.

I also want my Muse back.  I understand that you are a new creation apart from her.  I need her, too…

Gabrielle:  There is not much that can be done there.  I already discarded the two bodies, along with her memories.  And within a week, all of her memories will be gone…forever.

Well, we can’t have a deal then.

Gabrielle:  What can I do?  I can’t bring her back!  Even if I tried!

Just leave.  I need some time to myself.

Gabrielle:  Very well.  I’ll see how I can save your friend…

*Gabrielle vanishes in a golden ray of light*

Remedy: It’s just as I feared.  The Dark Muse found those two clones before I did.

And to make matters worse, she acquired my Muse’s angel form while she was in her for a short time.

Remedy:  Well, I didn’t want to do this, but it leaves us no choice.  We need to travel back in time.  Back to the day of the two-year anniversary.

That’s right.  In that period, I still had that extra clone.  But what would we do with it?  We can’t take it to the present.  Gabrielle’s transformation is already nearly complete.

Remedy:  We wouldn’t go back to the present.  In the past, on that day, Gabrielle was beginning to form.  Well, to be honest, she has existed since day one of Muse being an angel.  What we must do is separate Muse from her angelic form.  We would then take her to a place far away from it.  Then, in the present, Gabrielle will not be around, and neither will the Dark Angel Muse.

Sounds like a good plan.  When will we execute it?

Remedy:  Like all my good plans, I need some time to develop it.  That includes filling in holes so that nothing is left out of it.  You have a good day off, Kyle!

You too, Remedy!

*Remedy vanishes in a beam of light*

Well, things have gone from bad to worse.  With the Dark Muse having both clones, we need to go back to the past to set things right.  I hope that we succeed.

Now to enjoy this day.  I’ll be seeing a movie with my brother later and then enjoy the remainder of this day.  That pretty much covers today.

Today’s high is going to be 91 degrees and the silver lining is finally having a day off.

To those of you who are enjoying the hot weather, I hope that you all have a fantastic day.

 

Gabrielle:  Kyle…I have been a very lousy angel.  But I will make amends.  It is my pledge to correct my selfish mistakes and to reform my motives to ones that reflect goodwill and friendship.  I will also work with my utmost to find a way to restore your precious friend.  This, I promise!
