Drabble Challenge #24 [Alternate]

Prompt: don't panic

part 3 of the series: The Continuing Saga of Phyzz and Muze


Oh, they’re back! They’re back!!!

We hear a key in the door, so my brother and I race down the staircase to see what our long-absent companions might have brought us to make up for their recent neglect.

As I round that last corner though, and look up expectantly, I discover that the newcomer standing in the foyer isn’t someone who belongs here.

And she smells of DOGS!

I look toward my brother to see that he is already racing back up the stairs.

I follow, and even pass him, so great is my terror.

We hide under the bed.
