 to sleep, perchance to dream

Matthew tossed and turned in bed, thinking about the past couple of days. It still irked him how Tony had unceremoniously foisted the two new wolves off on them. He certainly didn't mind the new blood, but . . . did Tony really have to be so abrasive?
Matthew couldn't speak for Steven, not having seen him in action, but Grip-of-Steel had certainly managed to prove himself. He was resourceful and held up under pressure -- a lot of pressure -- and had spoken quite eloquently when the situation called for it. Matthew also wondered whether Grip-of-Steel had some personal demons of his own.
Finally, Matthews thoughts turned to his awareness of Taylor and Jacob, as he puzzled over what he had felt this evening. For several minutes, they had seemed to be on both sides of the Gauntlet at the same time. Matthew racked his brain, but then he thought about what he new about Beshilu. Suddenly the realization hit him that the rat-creatures must have gnawed completely through the Gauntlet! Matthew sat bolt upright, his heart pounding. Finally, Matthew calmed himself and slipped off into sleep.

White and black's pawns have arranged themselves in a jagged pattern across the board. Black's pawns are armed to the teeth, swords and guns and knives and vests, while white's pawns hold sticks and toy guns.
Black's bishop stays back, while its Queen moves forward, ready to strike. Black's king polishes its pistol, while the King's knight sharpens the king's sword. Its own sword lies off the board.
You look and see Black's player, a whorl of flame, expanding in size with each breath you take.

Matthew jerks awake in a cold sweat, his mind racing. His thoughts focus immediately on Black's player, trying to find some way to relate it to what he already knew. The pure pack that we vanquished, their totem was exceptionally strong. I doubt that it would have treated them as equals. As the potential implications sink in, Matthew desperately hopes that his speculation is wrong. And yet, he instinctively knows that any other plausible interpretation will have implications that are at least as dire.
Finally, Matthew glances at the alarm clock, his thoughts spinning. 5:07. And he knows he there's no point in trying to go back to sleep. Then he remembers that Taylor had wanted a meeting of the pack alphas. That is exactly what we need right now. Matthew picks up the phone and calls Taylor, knowing that what he is about to ask is no minor matter.
