"Dr. Saturn, administer the anesthesia," sweat already drip-dropped from the forehead of an anxious Dr. Andonuts, who would be responsible for putting his own son under the knife. It was times like these that the brilliant scientist would remember the cause at hand. Of course, he could only get more nervous anyway.
"BOING! HERE IT IS!," Dr. Saturn might as well be Dr. Andonuts's
Saturnian counterpart. Technically, the creature was just as intelligent. The most intelligent creature in the entire wondrous colony known as Saturn Valley.
"We need another dose, the levels are not high enough--," Dr. Andonuts lost his breath as a sleepy Ness strolled into the Saturn Valley Hotel room.
"Doctor?!," Ness exclaimed, estranged by the sight of the operation being performed in the hotel room.
"Why....er...Ness!," the doctor sputtered. "What are you doing....a-a-awake?"
"May I ask why you are operating on Jeff in his hotel room, while he's sleeping?," Ness a bit disgruntled looking over the complex setup of scientific equipment in a quaint valley hotel room.
"The logic is quite simple," Dr. Andonuts was about to explain.
Dr. Saturn cut in, "BOING! THE DOC ANT KNOW HIS SON IS SCARED. NOW WAS ONLY TIME COULD DO!"
"Ohhhhh, I see," Ness chuckled, calmly, "I'll see you tomorrow then. Do you plan on finishing by morning?"
"We believe so Ness," replied Dr. Andonuts in a comforting tone.
"Okay then, take care of Jeff!," Ness exited and returned to his own hotel room.

"Whahoah, whoa, where am I?!," Jeff Andonuts exclaimed as his conscience, his soul was hurled through a blur of color and life. The timid teen genius could not get a hold of himself. Or a hold of reality for that matter.
"It's me Jeff," a familiar voice pierced the intensity of the atmosphere.
"Wh-who??," Jeff couldn't fathom what he was hearing.
"Me!," the voice replied sprightly.
"And who would th-th-that be??," the boy genius further attempted to get a grip on the situation.
"You, Jeff! It's you!," the omniscient voice cheered.
"No way, this is against better judgement," Jeff still manages to put his scientific blather to work, despite the fact that he was tumbling through a mess of colors, past events and light, "it is physically impossible for a single compound organism to communicate in dialogue directly with itself."
"You want to talk sense?," the voice challenged. "You can throw your technical nonsense out the window considering that we're not in physical space."
"Alright then, where are we?," Jeff sighed, out-debated by himself.
"Want to get technical?," Jeff's voice once again bickered forth. "Don't say we, I am you and you are me so we are one entity and should not be referred to in any plural."
"Ugh, I'm annoying," Jeff once again defeated, corrected himself.
"Well then, I am well on my way to my proposition," Jeff's voice spoke more calmly.
"Wha....oh that means me," Jeff concluded. "What proposition?"
"Right now, my father is transferring my soul as data into an android," Jeff's conscience explained.
"Was that not supposed to take place tomorrow?," Jeff still was getting a hold of himself speaking to his own conscience.
"No, that's why you're in your mind," Jeff's conscience continued, "your physical being has been temporarily eliminated by dad so all that you have left right now is your conscience, and your soul."
"Simply amazing....." things were starting to make sense for Jeff Andonuts.
"I shall be free now....free to wander my innermost thoughts....to analyze them....to find the real Jeffrey Andonuts," said Jeff's conscience, "I don't have much time I guess, so I'll be on my way now. I am always here, Jeff."
"My theories regarding the correspondence between emotional conscience and superior mental accument definitely need some rethinking. I suppose now would be the perfect time to research," Jeff once again turned his train of thought to science as the movement of his soul ceased and the boy rose to traverse his dream collection.
"Stop right there good friend!!," a familiar likeness sifted through the blurs that were Jeff's thoughts and appeared before Jeff.
"Is that you?!," Jeff was once again deeply puzzled.
"It's me silly! How could you have forgotten your old buddy, Jeff?!," who else but Jeff's old boarding school roomie and best friend revealed himself.
"Tony?! What are you doing in my head??," Jeff exclaimed, somewhat frightened.
Tony said, "I'm always in your head Jeff. I've been in your head since the first time I met you!"
"Aggh! I knew there was more to our friendship than met the eye! Why were you always following me around?," Jeff tends to jump to conclusions on rare occasions like this.
"I don't think you understand Jeffrey," Tony explained, "all your memories of me are stored in that impressive databank you call your mind. Everyone's in your head Jeff."
"That's....ridiculous!," Jeff was due for another scientific rant.
"Before you get scientific Jeff, just remember, the imagination knows no bounds of science," Tony once again explained, "or any other realistic concept for that matter."
"Very well," Jeff concluded as Tony's likeness dissipated before him, "I'll get to the bottom of....my mind I guess." Jeff proceeded along to descend a multi-colored pathway textured like the coils of his brain.
"How long should that take?," Jeff's only company now was his own conscience.
"Alright, if this is my mind," Jeff declared, "then right here, right now, I'm banishing my....conscience. I don't care how hard I have to concentrate."
"Hahaha, you think it's that easy," Jeff's consciene rebutted, "why don't you take another step into the darkness that lies before you??"
"Is this not my mind, where all my dreams exist?," Jeff asked.
"Yes, but it is also where your nightmares exist," Jeff's conscience, who was no longer showing the good side of Jeff, finally took upon the likeness of Jeff himself. It didn't hesitate to try and take control of Jeff's soul.
"Ugh," Jeff collapsed to his knees as Jeff clutched at his head. He reached for his gaia beam, and fired off a blast of rage and anguish, "Nyaaaaaggghh!!!!"
Jeff's Nightmare was hurled forth, tumbling backwards before immediately recovering with blinding speed. Jeff proceeded to fire again, much more calmed. The nightmare was not phased. Nor did the nightmare speak throughout the duration of the battle.
"How am I supposed to--nugh!!," Jeff felt a pain like he had never felt before. The nightmare just stood defiant, a blank stare in its eyes as Jeff collapsed in pain. He felt like he was being torn apart from the inside. Jeff's rage accumulated once again as he fired a blast from his gaia beam. Jeff's nightmare was blown off into the distance, and Jeff once again calmed himself with a feeling of security. Jeff realized that any of his friends would have utilized their PSI to defeat the foe. Jeff knew he lacked that, and by sheer will he conquered the darkness. "I suppose now that the dark side of my soul has been destroyed," Jeff puffed, "I have reached the utmost level of mental purity. This must be what happened to Ness at the fire spring. He would be proud of me. But then again, so would.....
