You freeze with indecision for a second as they come closer. Your plan in tatters and your mind frozen, you watch as the two enormous monoliths of Barney and Dora stand up and stretch their arms even higher into the air. The rumbling sound of their voices comes to you like an earthquake.
"That was boring." said Dora. Even from this distance, you can see the doll clenched in her fist. You shudder. You don't want to imagine what would happen if she made you play dolls again at this size
"Yeah." Says Barney. "I'm going to make myself a sandwich. You want anything." The rumbling sound of Barney's voice makes you fall to the ground with the shaking of the floorboards. You begin to think that you might be a bit TOO small for this. You should've eaten a bit more peanut butter...
"No thanks. I think I'll go see what our dear cousin is doing." Dora giggles. You've always hated that giggle.
"That pest." If only Barney knew how close he is to the truth right then, "Whatever." Your heart sinks. He obviously hasn't forgotten about the sore wrist you gave him last summer.

"Oh cousin, where are you." Followed by that awful giggle. Again, you shudder, and then make it to the top step. You cautiously make your way down the hall, resolving never to do this again. Suddenly...
