well, this perdicament derek is in might take sone time to get through. This may sound like an elementary assumption, but to me thedevil dogs and the large animal in the cave remind me of some of his previous adventures; the dogs, his story about the skater chased down by a ghost dog, or the story about the large animal (or whatever it was) in the cave reminds me of the pterodactyl story in Owensmouth where that farmer died in the cave with it. I think that it has something to do with derek taking over adams place when he died. adam's just trying to tell him something. I hope derek get's the message soon before he completly looses it.
