Jason stopped and pulled the shoe off of his foot, peering down inside. He saw a fuzzy mass. Worse, a fuzzy mass that was moving. “AH!!”
Without thinking, he dumped the mass onto the wood floor—it made no sense to do it on the carpet. Then the pest could simply hide in the fibers! No, this would reveal the creature in all its squirmy horror for him to examine up close.
But there was no time for that now—it would soon get away! The poor thing writhed and squeaked out gibberish, and it seemed to lose a couple of legs as it tried to crawl away. But Jason was already readying his weapon of pest destruction. “Sayonara, freak,” he growled, and he SLAMMED his shoe on the creature.
A shrill, pained scream reverberated into Jason’s ears. But all this told him was that the creature was still alive! So, he SMASHED it again. This put an end to any noises, though a third time for good measure never hurt anyone.
“Ah… ah…” Thank goodness. Finally, Jason’s heartrate fell to normal levels. Out of morbid curiosity, he took a look at the underside of the sole—ugh, it looks all sticky and dark red! But he’d destroyed the pest so utterly that there was no way he could really identify what it’d been. In Jason’s opinion, he considered that a job well done. And good thing too—there’d be no way for him to focus on finding Franky with that… thing on the loose.
