It was 3:45pm. Daniel had just returned home from a day of school; his mother had picked him up and followed him through the door. Daniel could barely concentrate that day; for he was thinking of monsters and Twitter and potential fame. He ran upstairs to his bedroom, opened Twitter on his iPhone and whilst scrolling through tweets saw an odd one. A person called Black was asking him for more, but there was something odd. He had given a Skype name. Daniel had zoomed over it but second thoughts had brought him back to it. He did notice some random blogs had posted the image; it was spreading. Maybe this Black person worked for a newspaper or something? He opened Skype and added the Skype ID.
It didn't take long before Black had accepted Daniel, and it was Black who started the conversation. There was something a little eerie about him, but Daniel had felt worse feelings the night before. And anyway, he could be famous! Daniel answered any questions Black asked; at least, as much as he could. He was wondering who this was...but everyone wanted to know more after all.
Black was growing a little bit nervous. What Daniel was saying... it seemed possible at least. With the answers he needed, and the stories he knew of, Black just needed to wait until night. He had a funny feeling that both he and Daniel would be getting visits through the closet. And so he decided to logout from Skype, with a small warning.
"watch out tonight, they should come again...follow them. don't let them get away..."
That night, Daniel could barely sleep. But he eventually drifted off...until he was woken up by a slight creaking noise. His wardrobe door was turning. He quickly pulled himself up and a monster stepped into his room. The same one as the night before. And he got a better look at it; the photo from the night before only got one side of it, after all.
The monster was a reddy-pink in colour. It had both scales and fur (Daniel couldn't understand how), and it was three times as tall as him, with a long curly tail, four eyes, two noses, a scaly frond, and a horn covered in fur. No wonder he was so scared the night before! The monster looked to be an impossibility of nature!
Daniel knew he only had one chance, and he quickly got out of bed, pushed past the monster and through his wardrobe door. The monster looked almost as frightened as Daniel as he stepped past the threshold and into...
...it almost seemed like another world to him. But he guessed it was, and the stories were kind of right, this did seem to be a factory. Oddly enough, it was dark here too, and looking around he saw one other monster: this other monster, a big blue furry thing with spots of purple, a tail and two horns didn't seem to notice him, and Daniel hid under something.
But he quickly slid underneath it, picked himself up and started running. The monster that scared him would have been able to see him, and Daniel did not want that. So he kept running...
Black was woken up by a door being opened. The door to the cupboard that contained his water heater. For a second he didn't understand, then he remembered. This was it! He watched a blue furry monster with purple spots, a tail and two horns enter his bedroom, and Black got out of bed and ran to his cupboard door, continuing through it and into the factory - no, the world - inhabited by monsters. He saw, on the other side of a vast room, the monster from Daniel's picture, and slid under a desk or table of some sort and continued running. He did not want to be seen or found out. Not now...
