This choice: ...pulled out the remote, hoping to use it on the door. • Go Back...Chapter #3Crossing Her Fingers by: Tocks pointed the remote at the door. I’ll just tap the button,” Jenn thought, maybe if the building shrinks, it’ll just shrink a little. Closing her eyes, she hit it. A slight creak. She peeked up at the water-stained ceiling. It didn’t look any closer. Another creak and Jenn followed the sound to the door which was slightly ajar. It appeared to have shrunk about half a foot and the lock no longer met. “Hello,” Jenn said, pushing into the apartment office. It was a mess. She found herself stepping all over clothing and papers as she picked her way to the wooden desk with a plaque stating LITTLE: DETECTIVE in bold letters. The thumping seemed to be coming from a door to the right, likely a closet. This is so not worth the effort, Jenn thought, this place is gross and weird; gross and weird being two of Jenn’s greatest insults. She opened the door and let out a little squeak as a gunnysacked body flopped out.
I don’t really want to even touch that, but I guess I have to, Jenn considered. She pulled the top sack off, revealing a middle aged guy’s head with tape across the mouth. Taking out her frustration with this whole scene, she ripped off the tape and a good portion of the guy’s mustache too.
After the muffled scream, the guy panted, “Sanderson. . . tell him. . . no sign”
“What?” Jenn asked impatiently.
Swallowing, the guy asked, “Huh, aren’t you with Sanderson?”
“Look Mr. Little, if that is who you are,” Jenn said as he acknowledged his identity, “I just had a question about this strange thing I found.” She pulled out the remote.
His eyes got wide as plates, “The mass transformer! Untie me and give it here, girl!”
“Hey now.”
“Don’t give me any lip, you spoiled brat! You don’t know what you’re messing with,”
“Oh really,” Jenn sneered, pointing the remote at his face, “I don’t think you’re in any position to yell at me. Tell me now what MY new toy does or you’ll regret it.”
So what happens next? Does Mr. Little give up the information or does Jenn shrink him too?  indicates the next chapter needs to be written. |
