Editing The Dark Cloud

''"I understand your mistrust. However, through your 'observational tool,' did you see the great Metal Wars? The billions upon billions that could have been saved? Did you see the Dark Perforation, and again, did nothing as they ravaged planet after planet, slaughtering countless innocents? And now evil lurks on the horizon, as the demonic powers of the Neo-COUE and monstrous crystal creatures threaten our universe."''

*COUNT BLEAH<br>The Cloudy Threat

==Trivia==

*The game of Monopoly between Topmonhit and Chills was pre-determined in an actual game of Monopoly.
*This story is the introduction of Count Bleah's second body, a body made of cloud.
*Shem was originally supposed to hatch in this story, but as it was forgotten, it instead remained with Sub. However, as Topmonhit did not recognize Shem, it is assumed that he brought Shem to [[Mekkai]] (where Sub and Tron found it) sometime after this story.
*Like previous times in Topmonhit's stories, Subsourian's use of Erishkigal is said to be a weaker version of the fullest power of it.

===Connections to Other Stories===

*This story ends a search by Subsourian for the power of The Cloud.
*At the end, Topmonhit mentions the warning Top, Oshy and Topper had been given in [[Return to Gisho]] about something returning. At the end of The Dark Cloud, Topmonhit tells Sub that it was not referrin to [[Neo-COUE]] (which was due to [[User:Sneezier|Sneezier]] believing that was whom it referred to). It referred to [[Metal Marauder]] returning in [[Inherit the Pokemon]].
*Count Bleah was previously imprisoned at the end of [[Tick Tack Emissary]].
*The [[Metal Army]] were on Distant Planet in [[Omega]], where Athene and the Sapphire Legion had been taken over by a splinter of Count Bleah. In a special part of the same story, Subsourian comes across a moon that had a morph being grown by the splinter, where it was revealed that there were multiples of these (which would be the morphs that appear in this story).
*Count Bleah previously met Team TOT in the [[Topmonhit Story '07 Halloween Special: Bleah! Countdown to Doom]], which he briefly mentions.
