the truth of the Puppet Masters

we begin our story on Nirvana on the floating continent in Mother and Fathers castle "wake up please wake up" a small girl said waking up Mother "who are you" Mother asked "let's play" the small girl said running out of the bedroom "wait" Mother said running after him she saw the girl watching a mirror like a television (there not in Nirvana by the way) then ran off Mother walked in front of the Mirror and it spoke to her

"the Puppet Master is always born into a tragedy when you were very young your parents beat and raped you it was until you were saved by your brother and brought out of that life" then the mirror shattered "that's a lie that never happened to me what's going on" Mother said almost being put into tears "come on slow poke" the little girl said running away "come back here" Mother said flying this time but when she saw the little girl in the foyer this time with a small faceless doll and then she went out the door Mother flew over and picked up the doll and it spoke to her

"a Puppet Master always has something they love taken away when you were injected with the Izanami gene at age three it took eighteen years from your life you also lost your brother as well" then the doll turned to dust "what does this mean why do they want me to know this" Mother said "over here slowpoke" the little girl said jumping off the continent "wait come back here" Mother said flying over the continent and when she reached the ground she saw the little girl next to a crib then run off Mother got to the crib and it spoke to her

"a Puppet Master has to be good at handling and raising children you seemed to surpass at this skill but a Puppet Master must be good at other talents as well" then the crib lit on fire "come on slowpoke" the little girl said running away "wait" Mother said flying after her she finally caught up with her she was sitting on a noose "what the hell is this" Mother said as the hanged man started talking to her "as a Puppet Master you bare the blood of thousands upon millions of lives your past lives weir merciless just like you ha ha hee ho ho" the hanged man then fell to the ground turning into fire "now do you understand what you are" the little girl said "what the hell are you" Mother asked being pissed in the first time in forever "i'm your faithful servant Master im Will the keeper of your memories" she said revealing her true form

"why did you choose me" Mother asked "we didn't the last Puppet Master did before he died and he is always right bye" then Will disappeared then Mother went back to her home and went to sleep but it didn't last long "Mother Mother wake up please Mother" Ishtar said holding onto the rim of his crib "mm okay i'm up Ishtar what is it precious" Mother said walking up to the crib "well for starters i'm wet secondly i have a playdate today and i want to get something to eat some time today so if you would be so kind" Ishtar said putting on an adorable pouty face "well let's get you straightened out little one" the events from last night raced thru Mothers mind but she managed to get Ishtar ready for the playdate he was wearing a baby blue shirt and rose red pants

then a knock was heard at her door and when Mother opened it Alice holding her son Mageus and Amaterasu with her daughter Luna and Gia with her son Blair and Cress with his fraternal twins Alex and Pi and finally Valentine with her son Paladin "hey guys come on in Ishtar's in the playroom so please drop of your little ones and let's get this party started" Mother said welcoming them inside after the drop off they all went into the kitchen and got some tea and cookies "so Gia would you mind telling me who's the father" Mother asked "well Mother if you must know Blade and i were out drinking at the Divine chateau one thing led to another and wound up in his bed feeling so tranquil that's how i knew i was pregnant" Gia said eating a rose tart "but Amaterasu i'm more interested in your baby's daddy i'm sure we all loved to know" Gia said "well um it's Kimba" Amaterasu mumbled "what was that" Mother asked "Luna's father is the beast God Kimba okay" Amaterasu said as the whole room was in shock "so how are you handling two kids" Valentine said "actually if you handle him right Kimba's a real sweetie and the nudist thing is completely over it just a lot of acupuncture tee hee" Amaterasu said sipping tea "so Cress how are your twins and where's Lotus" Alice asked "oh she's going to be a little late and Alex and Pi there doing really well there really close to walking but not quite yet" Cress said sipping tea

meanwhile in the playroom "how have you been Mageus wanna play with the blocks" Ishtar said as they both started crawling over to the blocks "hey can i play with you" Blair said looking so nervous "sure come on maybe we can build a castle or a fort" Mageus said as Blair came crawling over and all three of them started building the most adorable little fort Luna was playing with a small cute cat doll "hey give me that doll" Paladin demanded "no my papa made for me out of his tail fur you can't have it" Luna said "too bad" Paladin said as he snatched the doll away from Luna "hey give that back to her" Ishtar said crawling over snatching the doll back and giving it back to Luna and causing Paladin to hit him in the head with a rattle and lead to Ishtar hitting him with a another rattle till this happened

"hey what's going on break it up" Mother said picking up Ishtar and Valentine getting Paladin and coming back into the kitchen "sorry everyone these two got in a fight are those high chairs over there" Valentine asked Mother nodded as they placed Paladin and Ishtar in the high chairs bottles came soon afterwards but then Cress heard his twins calling him in the other room "if you excuse me i have business to attend to" Cress said leaving the room "why did you do that earlier Paladin" Ishtar asked "because i could and i don't care the same reason i don't care if i do this" Paladin said pulling on Ishtar's hair "hey hey can you guys just get along" Valentine said then Cress Came back "hey they're starting to get tuckered out do you think it's time for naptime" Cress asked "sure now might be the perfect time" Mother said "i think i'll switch places with my husband now" Amaterasu said pressing a button on her bracelet and Kimba took her place "hey so whats going on guys" Kimba said seeming over excited as always "we're going to put the little ones down i do ask that you each pick a room in the castle and hunker down" Mother said taking Ishtar to her room Kimba transformed into a silver fox and went into the playroom "papa" Luna said crawling towards Kimba they met half way

Kimba licked her with his tongue then picked her up by the strap of here overalls and they went outside Gia came and picked up her son Blair and took him to the garden Alice came and picked up Mageus and took him to the library Valentine picked up Paladin and they went to the music room then Cress picked up Alex and Pi and they went into the hot spring room "Papa how about under that tree it'll be so cozy" Luna said Kimba was going to go there anyway he curled up with Luna in the center and looked so cute and the breeze felt just right meanwhile in the gardens "achoo" Blair sneezed looking adorable "oh dear little one sigh i the marvaless Gia was blessed with a son that's allergic to exotic flowers" Gia said "it's not my fault" Blair said "i know at least your not allergic to roses" Gia said summoning a rose bassinet and placing little Blair inside and rocking it slowly back and forth back and forth "mom can you sing that song to me the you made just for me" Blair asked "little seed little seed little seed soon you'll be a apple tree grow little one grow soon a strong tree you'll be grow little seed grow soon a great proud tree you'll be" Gia said as Blair fell into a peaceful sleep

"mom what book will you read me today" Mageus asked looking around the library "we'll see let's see" Alice said but after looking for awhile they found a bunch of fairy tales and other sweet dream trash that made Mageus feel sort of depressed "don't worry i brought sleepy hollow let's get reading" Alice said as she sat in the rocking chair and started reading sleepy hollow Valentine set up a place for Paladin to sleep on the coach "i'm not going to sleep" Paladin said "well see about" Valentine said playing happy little lamb on the piano and Paladin's eye's started slowly started to close

meanwhile with Cress Lotus had just made her way in thru the power of Gateway "oh and i thought you weren't going to show" Cress said "you know i wouldn't miss this" Lotus said taking off her clothes and grabbing Pi and Alex out Cresses hands as he undressed "okay are we ready" Cress said "yaw dad mom took our clothes off" Alex said "well then let's get started" Cress said as his vampire wings were unleashed and wrapped them around his family as they went into the hot spring meanwhile inside the wings "look at them they're sleeping so peacefully in the warmth of your beautiful wings it's so comfortable in here" Lotus said falling asleep with Cress

"now little one it's time for a nap" Mother said "Mom can you get sharia" Ishtar said rubbing his large amethyst eyes "here you are little one" Mother said handing him a little mouse doll "thank you mom" Ishtar said almost to dreamland Mother summoned a his little mobile and it played a little melody for him then he went to sleep

the thoughts from last night still weighed on Mothers mind but she decided to shrug them off it was going to be rough ride but as long as sweet moments like this keep happening things would be just fine

"hmm she's taking the truth well" Fredric said "well she should be the things she witnessed them many a time so this is no surprise" Will said "but she's one step closer isn't that what really matters isn't that good for something" Grace said sounding pissed as always "what's our next move we have to be careful this Puppet Master won't be like the others we must plan our next move carefully" Dusk said

"and i think i know what that move is we're going to launch one of the dead Planets but we're going to make it big enough to wipe out that tiny little Galaxy that out'a give her the nerve to take charge tee hee" Meloda said laughing to herself "let's do it she'll have to learn one way or another Dusk can you put something together" Fredric asked "i always can manage i'm the general and head engineer but it will take time thirteen years tops now good day" Dusk said leaving the council room

Mother was now aware that she was living in some sort of fantasy and now everytime she fell asleep she was given strange visions not about Cassiopeia's past life but someone elses Mother was scared by these visions because something terrible always happened to her it was very scary and horrific but whenever she saw Ishtar every morning everything was fine it was as if those thoughts waited at the bed only to greet her by nightfall

but sadly my reader this adorable chapter has come to a close so without further adieu
