I can do this. Be cool. Xander circled around the monster, hoping that it couldn't sense his rising level of fear. He tried to keep one eye on it, in case it started coming towards him, while he searched for a weapon. He decided upon the broken toaster his mother had been storing in the basement. It could do serious damage to the enemy & allow him to run and get help. Get Buff.

He didn't have the chance to think about future strategy as the monster inched closer to where he was hiding. "Die!" Xander screamed, hurling the toaster in the monster's general direction. He smiled in satisfaction as he heard a squishy thud as it connected with the creature's head.

"Xander? Everything okay down there?"

"Yeah, Mom. I just killed a spider."
