Gordon Baxter was hurt and confused, he was holding his front tooth that just came off, and he missed his R C truck that was some where around here, he did not know where it was or where the remote control that he had dropped when all the noise started.
He wished he wasn’t here so he could see his dad who was working here and not at other school. His mom was trying to protect him from the scary monster who had his dad in it’s arms. The scary monster also had shot one woman and hit another woman that was here in this room with him, his mom, his dad, the scary monster and another woman. He could also hear another voice coming from the place where the scary monster came from but he could not see it.
He already heard his name call out by one of the women who was standing and was holding a gun toward his dad and the scary monster, he didn’t know who she was and the more she talked, the more she sounded like a man than a woman. She seemed to know his mom but Mom didn’t know who she was and she knew dad but Dad at first was not to happy to see her but it seems that he knew her well enough to say to his mom “Listen to her, she knows what she is doing, you and Gordon get to safety.”
And the scary monster was counting, it had already said “Four.”
“Mommy it hurts.” said Gordon as he held his hand to his mom and showed her his front tooth.
“There, there” said his mom, as she tries to hide him from the scary monster but she did turn toward him to see him and his hand holding the tooth. “Oh no Gordon” she said.
“What happen?” said his dad
“His tooth came off.” said his mom
“How bad is it?’ asked his dad
“It was lose for the last couple of days, it must have come out when he fell.” said his mom “There is a little blood around his mouth.”
“Look” said his dad “let them go, he his hurt, let his mom take care of him,you you have me.”
“You are nothing” said the scary monster.
“Yes I am” said his dad “I make a better shield than my son could have and as long as I am here, she is not going to shoot me, right?
“Do you take me to be a fool?” said the scary monster.
“Let the two of them go” said the woman with the gun pointed toward his dad and the scary monster.
“Why should I?” said the scary monster
“What do you want?” said the woman with the gun
“Want?” asked the scary monster
“Yes, what do you want such that you will let these two go.” said the woman with the gun.
“What can you do?” asked the scary monster
“You be surprised.” said the woman with the gun “You want to be in charge of this world, I can help make that happen”
“You?” asked the scary monster
“Yes, you want off this world?” said the woman with the gun “I can arrange transportation back to your home world.”
“You lie, you do not have the technology to reach the stars.” said the scary monster
“And I can stop the attack on your orbital weapon.” said the woman with the gun
“How dare you, there is no way for you to do that.” said the scary monster as it tighten it’s grip around his dad
“No don’t hurt my dad” yelled Gordon
“Listen to her, she can do things.” said his dad “You shoot me now and what ever you had in mind is not going to happen.”
“What is it going to be?” said the woman with the gun
“You are lying to me.” said the scary monster
“No I am not” said the woman with the gun
The scary monster looks around the room, waits for a few seconds and then says “Five!”
