Ok, so I went down stairs to get a water bottle. I got the bottle, filled it, then went to the silverware drawer to get a lid. I opened the drawer, and then...
A HUGE TREE COCKROACH
was spinning in circles inside one of the upturned water bottle lids. He escaped to the back of the drawer before I could do anything beyond screaming. Glory and Mom, alerted by the sounds of my frantic cries, came to my assistance. After relaying to them my horrific encounter, we began to shovel through the contents of the drawer with ice cream scoopers. We caught sight of him again for an instant as he scurried out the back of the drawer into the cabinet below. Screaming and shivering, we pulled the drawer out and spotted the vile creature hanging on the drawer wheely thingies. Quickly, we located the raid and tormented the bug with volley after volley of the dreaded poison. After a well aimed hit from Mother, he dropped head first to the cabinet floor. We tried to do a visual search for him, but could not pinpoint his position. Pulling out the Icecream scoopers again, we began using them to pull the tupper-wares out of the cabinet, searching for what we hoped was a dead cockroach. After pulling out most of the contents, we finally found him behind the lemonade pitchers. Luckily he was dead (Well, mostly dead. His antennae was still moving...) We all leaned back with a sigh of relief. The thing was dead, and there was no more cause for alarm. But then the problem arouse of getting the disgraceful creation out of the cabinet. But none of us dared to stick our heads in there to get him out. After contemplating whether to do rock paper scissors or to draw straws, we then realized with relief that none of us had to risk our lives and sanitation in this way. For it was time for Freedom to get out of school!!! He'd save us! We raced to the bus loop to retrieve our hero. There he was! "Freedom! Freedom, We need you help!!"
"What?"
"There's an imposter in the silverware drawer!"
"A bug?"
"A COCKROACH!!!!"
"Oh, ok."
"We need you to extract him from the vicinities. Do you think you can do that?"
"Sure."
When we returned to the house, we women raced to make sure the little varmint was still where we had left him. Luckily, he had been wise enough not to wander off. And he had ceased that frightening twitching too. Calmy stepping over the mess of silverware and tupperware strewn across the kitchen floor, Our Hero reached down and picked up the scandalous infiltrator and escorted him to a more suitable environment (outside). (Now you can't cause anyone trouble ever again little cockroach!!! HAHAHAHA!!!!) Casually, Freedom set the empty corpse bellow the tree, where it is to rest forever more. And the Burgin kingdom was free from the tyranny of the cockroach king once more.
THE END
