Derek didn't feel like going home just yet and decided to just take a little hike around the neighborhood. He still couldn't believe that Sara was dead, killed by her youngest after a prank gone terribly wrong. Not only that, but the trauma from the whole affair also caused Johnny to go catatonic.
"I really messed up." He blamed himself. Granted the whole idea for the prank was Johnny's but he still shared some of the blame for bringing his dad's invention into it. That damn shrink ray. When he got home, he was going to put it back where he found it and never look at it again.
He placed his hand into his pocket and felt just how light it was. That wasn't right. He stopped dead in his tracks and placed his hand in his other pocket and felt it just as empty. A horrifying revelation fell over Derek as he realized the shrink ray was no longer in his possession.
"Where-" That's when it hit him. He knew he still had it when he was at Johnny's house and then he bumped into Rose on the way out. It must've fallen out of his pocket then and was still at Johnny's house. "God damn it."
With a frustrated sigh, Derek turned on his heel. He didn't want to go back to Johnny's right now after everything that happened, but he had no... choice?
Derek's ceased his stride as his eyes grew as wide as saucers. Off in the distance he could see people running for the hills and cars racing every which way. He could also hear the sounds of alarms and shattered glass mixed in with the telltale sound of screams.
"No way!" Derek breathed when he set his eyes on the source. It was Rose. A gigantic Rose. She had to be about as big as Godzilla if he had to take a wild guess. She was freaking huge and just crushed a truck flat as she carelessly stepped through her neighborhood. If she was this big then that meant she must've got ahold of the shrink ray and figured out how it worked. "Holy shit. My dad's gonna kill me."
All Derek could do was watch as Rose continued to move forward crushing anything or anyone in her path towards the city.
"What have I done." Derek panicked. The first thing that came to mind was his friend Johnny and he began to sprint towards his house, ignoring the giant monster that made the ground beneath her feet quake. He had to make sure his best friend wasn't seriously hurt or dead. He'd never forgive himself if he was.
Unlike with Sara, this really was all his fault.
