text: You run down the hallway and into your bedroom. You can hear loud thudding noises coming from the front door.
  
  "The midget maniac must be chopping down the front door with his axe" you think.
  
  You frantically scan your bedroom...do you hide under the bed or in the closet?
  
  > In the closet?
  The pitch blackness of the closet is not comforting but you dare not turn on the light and give away your position. you can faintly hear the thudding noises of the front door as the midget furiously uses his axe to chop it down.
  
  It is at this time you realize that Alice is still laying in the living room and unconscious. You feel the need to help her but are frozen in fear as you try to come out of hiding.
  
  Beeep! Beeep! Beeep!
  
  It's your phone by the bed ringing. Someone is trying to call you. Who could it be?
  
  Alice is screaming now...screaming your name...
  
  "Where are you?!!!" "Please help!!" "AAAAAAHHHH!!!"
  
  The chopping has stopped and so has Alice's screams for help. All you can hear now is the faint sound of the t.v. and then...Beeep! Beeep! Beeep!
  
  What do you do?
  
  > run for the phone?
  You dash across the room, grab the phone, and run back into the closet. You are so glad you opted to buy the more expensive cordless phone at Wal-mart last month than settling for the $10 cheapy with a cord.
  
  "Hello?"
  
  "Honey...are you alright?" " We heard what happened on the news!"
  
  Its your Mom!! You relate the current affairs of the evening up to the moment in a very soft whisper. Your mother gasps and then there is silence...
  
  "Son...get the hell out of the house NOW!" Your Dad is on the phone now.
  
  "Try to make it to a neighbors house or your car." " GO NOW!!!"
  
  You check your pants pockets and find the keys still on you.
  
  Without thinking you jump out of the closet and take a quick look out the bedroom door and down the hallway.
  
  You spot the midget standing over the body of what used to be your neighbor Alice. Her head severed a few inches from the twitching body...blood pooling from her neck, covering your living room carpet.
  
  You open your mouth in horror and attempt to let out a scream but all that manages to come forth is a squeak.
  
  The midget turns his face down the hall and spots you halfway in and halfway out your bedroom doorway. The thin lips of his mouth draw back to expose two small narrow rows of teeth.
  
  He begins to laugh as he draws back his axe and throws it down the hall just missing your head and meeting the wall behind you.
  
  You pull the axe from the wall keeping your eye on the little man down the hall. He just stands there laughing at you...as if he is challenging you to a fight. He begins to motion you over...his eyes never leaving yours.
  
  You can try to attack the midget with his own axe or make a dash for the bedroom window.
  
  What will it be?
  
  > attack the midget with his own axe?
  With axe in hand, you run down the hall and straight at the midget. Just as you are ready to use the axe on him, he darts to the left and races back out the front door of the house. You stumble over Alice's body and land face first back into your "Lazy Boy" recliner.
  
  "HAAAHAaaaaaa!!!!" you hear coming from just outside your house. "Come and get me you @#%$!*%!!!" the midget screams at you.
  
  Pushing yourself from the recliner and mad as hell...you race out the front door swinging the axe over your head. What you see out in your front yard stops you dead in your tracks.
  
  Your front porch light illuminates the silhouette of the midget standing next to a much larger creature. A creature not of this world. A long red tongue protrudes from it's vile mouth exposing large, razor sharp teeth. The tongue quickly moves out towards the smiling midget, sliding over his face and then "SWACK"-like a bullwhip, wraps around the midgets neck snapping it in two, right before your eyes. The midgets body flops around like a rag doll as the monster begins to devour it, the teeth becoming dark red with the midget's blood.
  
  "You have been chosen to find my next meal!" you hear bellowing inside your brain.
  
  "Is this the creature?" you think to yourself.
  
  "Of course this is!!!!!!!!!!" the creature screams telepathically into your mind.
  
  You drop the axe and cradle your head in both hands. It's as if a bomb has gone off in your brain giving you excruciating pain.
  
  "I am always hungry and I won't let you rest until I get it!!!"
  
  "I know I should'nt have picked the little guy but I was desparate and hungry. "You see...my ship crash landed outside your town and...well...the lights and the sounds of the local carnival were too good to pass up."
  
  "What a little funny guy he was...but not much of a meal though." the creature states.
  
  "Get busy and find me my next meal." "I'm in the mood for an obese female humanoid for my main course...get to work."
  
  The creature pushes you aside, walks into your house and flops into your recliner using the remote control to turn the channel of the television.
  
  "I hate horror flicks." it says.
  
  It turns and picks up Alice's head, by her hair, off of the blood soaked floor and brings it close to it's pig like snout. It's large mouth opens and the infamous tongue slowly rolls back out, wrapping around the head. With a flex of its muscular tongue a CRUNCH is heard as Alice's skull shatters from the pressure.
  
  WHOOP!!.. GULP!! The creature swallows the head whole.
  
  "Bye the way, there is no escape." "I will not let you sleep, eat, or even breathe until you either go insane or find me a meal." "Unfortunately...BOTH happened to little circus clown...he he he." "At least he juggled chainsaws for me when I got bored." "What can you do!"
  
  "uhhhhhh...play chopsticks?" you think.
  
  "Well, time to go "Fat Lady huntin'" you think.
  
  You know that when you find that unfortunate soul...YOU will be it's next meal.
  
  NOTE: You've reached the Twilight Zone ending...wierd huh?
  
  You dash across the room, grab the phone, and run back into the closet. You are so glad you opted to buy the more expensive cordless phone at Wal-mart last month than settling for the $10 cheapy with a cord.

  What will it be?
  
  > make a run for the bedroom window?
  Instead of tossing the axe at the midget, you throw it straight at the bedroom window. It breaks with a loud CRASH!!!! You jump through it and onto the front lawn.
  
  You spot your Ford Explorer in the driveway and fumble for your keys.
  
  The street lights are on but the street seems deserted...like a ghost town. It's as if everybody on the whole street was let in on this horrible joke except you.
  
  "I've got to get out of here." you think to yourself.
  
  You long to hear from your parents again but you left the phone back in your room.
  
  "I'll just hop into the truck and go to my parents!" you think. "They only live 30 miles from here!" The thought comes to you like a revelation.
  
  You find the keys and run toward the Explorer.
  
  > get in the damn truck and GO!!
  You hop into your Ford Explorer and head toward Mom and Dad's house. As you leave the city behind, you feel yourself becoming a little more relaxed. You turn on the radio...
  
  "NEWS FLASH" "The crazed man going by the name "The Murdering Midget" was captured in a bloody battle with police tonight...three policemen were killed and one injured. "The man is said to have been a worker at the local carnival." "More to come as the story unfolds."
  
  Whew!!!
  
  NOTE: You have travelled the path of least resistance and come out victorious. Although battling the midget and killing him is far more satisfying...I believe you got where you wanted. Good Work.
  
  The pitch blackness of the closet is not comforting but you dare not turn on the light and give away your position. you can faintly hear the thudding noises of the front door as the midget furiously uses his axe to chop it down.
  
  It is at this time you realize that Alice is still laying in the living room and unconscious. You feel the need to help her but are frozen in fear as you try to come out of hiding.
  
  Beeep! Beeep! Beeep!

  Alice is screaming now...screaming your name...
  
  "Where are you?!!!" "Please help!!" "AAAAAAHHHH!!!"
  
  The chopping has stopped and so has Alice's screams for help. All you can hear now is the faint sound of the t.v. and then...Beeep! Beeep! Beeep!
  
  What do you do?
  
  > stay in hiding?
  You feel terrible as you stay in the closet assuming Alice has fallen prey to this crazed killer.
  
  The phone continues to ring for what seems eternity when you hear an abrupt "click" from the phone and the ringing stops.
  
  Help me...Help me...
  
  It's Alice's voice...very faint and weak! You push open the closet door to see Alice face down with the phone in hand and laying at the enterence to the bedroom. The small man's shadow overpowers the body on the floor as he raises the infamous axe over his head. Alice - oblivious to what is happening behind her and in apparent shock recieves the vicious blow silencing her forever.
  
  You gasp in horror as the lunatic pulls the blade from the broken body with both stubby arms and points to you.
  
  "You are next" he gurgles out. His yellow eyes looking you up and down.
  
  I guess you are.
  
  NOTE: You have fallen victim to the midget. Go back and try to make some gutsier moves.
