Purouette

The entire Monster shuddered as the string of Sixes shifted to a new position. Ready to connect another One-Six-One group onto another wiggle-tail 5-ring, the monster became as nimble as a Shorty, as least as far as the main mesh was concerned. Rolling entirely on a line of Eights, the monster spun on an invisible thread that ran vertically from the base mesh.

Turning away from the unloaded attraction zone, the working surface of the monster was now facing me and the wiggle-tail 5-ring that was nestled in the attraction zone that I found myself next to. As the rotation slowed, I decided not to take any chances and kicked the Eights into reverse and started counting mini-hops. After 20 mini-hops, I scanned backward as a large number of One-Eight-Ones began to rapidly pass me by.

While focusing the beam, the flow of One-Eight-Ones kept pushing me along, making the last few hops a bit easier if not almost automatic. That's when I finally started getting things into focus. The return angles were far wider that I had expected, especially since I was expecting to peek through a maze of One-Eight-Ones just to view the monster. Discovering that the edge of the monster was not more that two mini-hops away was an unexpectedly pleasant surprise.
