A godlike voice shook the air like thunder. Terence wailed and fell to the ground, but Amber and Freddy stood firm. The trio could feel the earth beneath them tremble as the pounding footsteps of a giant drew near. Amber shot a demanding look at Freddy, who suddenly realized with dread what was happening.
"Shit! I forgot! My mom wanted to come over and make dinner tonight!!"
As soon as the words left Freddy's mouth his mother swung into the kitchen entrance. She towered far above them, the miniaturized workers straining their necks to even see higher than the woman's knees. From there time seemed to slow to a crawl. The little exterminators minds began to race as they considered the situation before them.
Amber, the most experienced, immediately began to think of an exit plan. She immediately scoped out the space beneath the kitchen counter. If they made a break for it they could hide beneath that alcove until the coast was clear.
Freddy was overwhelmed by seeing his mother, a commanding force in his life, now larger than a skyscraper. But in addition to that he was worried that a repeat of his last blunder was about to happen. Who knows what kind of stupid nickname he'd get tacked on if his mom found out about this?
Poor Terence was a wreck. His mind went blank as he stared at the woman's impossibly huge feet. All he could think about was how this stranger could smear him from existence and never know it.
"HUH. WEIRD."
The giant's muttering snapped them all out of their trance.
SHRRRPPP.
She stepped forward. Her foot peeled from the linoleum floor, leaving behind a foggy stamp of perspiration. Amber and Freddy turned and began to flee for cover, but Terence was completely paralyzed at the sight of the giant woman. Amber let out an exasperated sound and reversed course, feeling obligated to save her comrade.
"Amber no!" Freddy shouted, but it was too late, Amber was at full-sprint. She grimaced as the woman's right foot began its next step. Her white french-tipped nails zipped by with a flash and were replaced with the grim sight of the sole underneath. Dust and debris littered the damp surface, and Amber knew she could very well be next. Freddy was unable to look as his mom's foot swung directly over his coworkers. Terence let out a scream as the ceiling of flesh began to lower, before Amber tackled him into the gap between the kitchen tiles.
The two fell into the grout just in time to be buried beneath Cheryl's foot. The pink swollen flesh of her sole sank into the trench, polluting the limited space with a funky smell. Amber and Terence screamed as the immense pressure increased. The doughy ceiling pressed on Terence's back and squashed him down into Amber. The weight was threatening to crush them both, and just when Amber was convinced she was about to burst the foot rocketed away with another moist SSHRRP, the screaming Terence going with it.
He shrieked as he soared through the air, glued to the steaming surface of the woman's foot alongside stray hairs, carpet residue and globs of old shoe lint,
