When all the World is Dark (for 5.25.120)

She stares into the darkness.

“Daddy? DADDY?”

“What is it, Sweetheart?”

“I heard a noise. I think it’s a monster. Can you check under my bed?”

“Well what does a monster look like?”

“It has the eyes that shine in the dark, huge pointy teeth, four arms that end in horrible claws, and…and those things that octopuses have.”

Her dad lies down on his stomach and looks under her bed.

“I don’t see any. Oh and here is a special spray. Now, if you see any monsters, just spray them with this, and they will disappear!”

“Does it work?”

“Absolutely!”
