"But why?" she asked, kneeling on the worn but well-vacuumed carpet of her rented room and peering into the dark space beneath a pink ruffled valance. "What's down there?"

The monster under the bed looked embarrassed, as much as an amorphous blob of blackness and fright could manage.

"Me?" it ventured. "Usually a few dust bunnies, a couple of lost socks. Occasionally a book someone got half-way through before abandoning."

Sara Sue thought about this.

"That's weird," she said.

"Hey," said Simon. "Stop that."

Perhaps out of sheer surprise, the shadow-thing stopped that.

"You're in the wrong closet," Simon told it. "You want my little brother. He's in the room next door."

He pointed and stepped back, careful to keep his toes well clear of the wriggling black tendrils scuttling sheepishly over his carpet. His bedroom door creaked open, then slammed closed, all apparently unaided.
