It was a dark and stormy night.
Van Helsing stared at the thing, trembling from head to toe. It whirred softly and stealthily began to inch toward him.
"Carl?" It came out as a squeak.
Carl was nowhere to be seen. Somewhere, in the distance, there was the faint sound of—what had the girl called them?—a hair dryer.
Stupid monk. Friar. Whatever.
Van Helsing glanced at the thing again. In the darkness—he still hadn't figured out the concept of flipping a switch to turn on the light—it looked as if it had moved closer. But it hadn't, had it? Heeyed it nervously,took a running leap, and landed on the bed in a crouch.
"Stay away! I'm warning you!"
The thing didn't move. It just sat there, staring at him. He swore it was smiling.
He picked up a pillow and threw it, missing the thing by a good yard. Van Helsing held up the other one warningly. The thing chuckled and began to inch toward him once again. Van Helsing screamed.
Carl entered the room and turned on the light. He stood there, stunned.
Van Helsing was standing on the bed, armed with a pillow. On the floor was a tiny toy that looked alarmingly like a fat little bird with wheels. It was moving slowly toward the bed.
Van Helsing screeched, "Carl! Kill it!"
"But...Van Helsing..."
"My life...my job...is to vanquish evil. I can sense evil!" Van Helsing's voice was steadily increasing in volume. "That thing is evil!"
Carl took another look at the...toy. It turned slowly toward him.
"Fuuuurrrr...bbbbyyyyy..."
