One day, coming back from the ice cream shop, we spotted in the distance a blonde headed thing in our front lawn. As we drove closer, we came to realize that it was a little girl, with strange glasses sitting on her nose. "Who is this cute little girl?", we thought to ourselves when we pulled into our drive. And, "Why is she at our house?" Weird I thought to myself, as we got out of the car. She didn't seem to talk and we didn't want to be rude, so we invited her in.
She seemed to be very happy, and made herself right at home. She started to search our children, ending the uncomfortable silence with a couple of "hmmm's", and "ah-ha's!" while looking in their pockets. Then, she asked for a map of the refrigerator, making us all laugh. She definitely fit right in with the rest of the family.
Then she started searching the house and was looking all around. Way up high, real down low, and she even peeked one eye out from behind her peculiar glasses to look more closely. Strange was all I could think. "What could she possibly be looking for? The only thing out of the ordinary is our fourteen year old daughters homemade weird video's of herself making strange animal sounds.
Then, all at once this terrible screeching screaming sound poured out of her tiny little mouth, and the sound was incredibly deafening. The next thing we knew, she had pounced onto our puppy Jack. "What on earth was going on?" I thought. Jack seemed to wonder the same thing as he yelped and yelped his little heart out. "HELP ME, HELP ME" was all I think he was saying. She had a death grip on the dog like I've never seen. What did she want with the dog? What was she doing at our house? "I'll get you yet My little pretty" were the first words that came from her mouth. Quite disturbing to our ears, especially to Jack. I've never seen him so frightened. It's like he knew something terrible was about to happen. I was frozen, and couldn't move. I was scared to death for our little Jack. What was going to happen to him? To us?
At the most heightened moment in time as I knew it, all the chaos came to a screeching halt, and this was the last thing I remember seeing.
And this is the Twilight Zone.
