  > Look around
  This is your room. Well, it was your room, now it's yours and Danny's. It has a closet, Danny's crib, with Danny in it and your bed. The way out to the hallway is to the southwest.
  
  Danny grabs at the sides of his crib for a moment.
  
  > take the sheet
  You grab the sheet, but Danny has a grip of steel on it. You pull harder, but he starts to get that scrunched up face he makes when he's about to start screaming and you ease up. You won't be able to save him if Mom and Dad come in and make you go to bed!
  
  > turn on the light
  That's already on.
  
  The monster hows in anger at the various glowing objects in the room, realizing that you have some kind of source of light that it was not familar with. It dives under the bed and escapes into the shadows. It does not come back that night, but you must remain forever vigilant in case one day it returns.
  
  > throw the sheet on the monster
  (first taking the sheet)
  (first getting off your bed)
  You get off of your bed.
  
  You lack the nerve when it comes to the crucial moment.

  Putting things on the monster would achieve nothing.

  > look at the sword
  This is a gray sword with a black handle. Your Uncle Pat got this for you last year, but Danny plays with it a lot. It seems to have some goop on it from the detergent bottle.
  
  > turn on the light
  You switch the blacklight on.
  
  The clock in the living room chimes twelve times. Midnight!
  You hear some growling from under the bed for a minute, but after a moment it stops. You wait and wait, but nothing happens. Eventually you realize that the sheet under the bed and the blacklight has effectively stopped the monster from entering your room altogether. You fall asleep, realizing that you need not fight the monster now that you have a means of keeping it out of your room-- as long as you keep the blacklight full of batteries!
  
  > Attack monster
  You strike at the monster with the glowing sword. As the lit weapon hits the monster, it howls in pain and fear, baffled that you have found a weapon capable of hurting it.
  
  The monster takes a swipe at you with razor sharp claws. It literally misses by a hair, making claw marks in your shirt without piercing your skin.
  
  > Attack monster
  You take one final strike at the monster, bringing down your weapon of light upon it, just as your parents open the door to find out what all the commotion is about in here. The monster explodes in a shadowy goo, which envelopes the room, extinguishing all light. Your hear your parents shouting until your dad lights a lighter. They find you with your toy sword on the ground, and your brother safely in his crib. They yell at you for being out of bed, but you do hear Dad ask Mom as they walk away "Did you see some kind of animal or something in there?" and she is unable to answer, as she isn't sure what she saw.
  
  You go to bed, triumphant, knowing you did it, you killed the monster and saved your brother!

  > hug the monster
  Keep your mind on the game.
  
  The monster slams into you, knocking you down on the floor, the sword falling from your grasp. You reach for the sword, and your hand justs graps it as the monster grabs your ankle and lifts you into the air. On the way down into its mouth, you reach out with the sword, just as the jaws of death clamp down on you, ending your life.
  
  Though you don't know it, the monster explodes in blackness which envelopes the room in darkness until daybreak, when your parents find your brother, safe in his crib, and you are nowhere to be found.

  Danny giggles.
  
  > give the detergent to Danny

  > get on the bed
  You get onto your bed.
  
  > wait
  There's a wall there. And you've run into enough of those to know that you aren't going through it.
  
  If you're sure you've set a good trap for the monster, you can wait until midnight when the monster will come into the room.
  
  > wait
  Time passes.
  
  The clock in the living room chimes twelve times. Midnight!
  You hear a lurking presence slathering from underneath the bed. Slowly a dark, barely visible mass of teeth and claws stalks slowly into the room. You note its pale red eyes, glowing with some kind of dead light glaring around the room, before resting their gaze on Danny's crib.
  
  Danny manages to get the cap off the laundry detergent and starts pouring it into his mouth, trying to drink it like a bottle. You wrestle it away from him, and he starts choking. Panicked, you run to Mom and Dad, who come in to see what's going on. Mom immediately goes into hysterics and calls poison control while Dad yells at you and gives you spankings for giving your brother poison. They try to make your brother get sick, but it doesn't work and he stops crying and starts going blue. Years from now, when your parents can no longer look at you, or each other, and you are in weekly therapy, you still haven't forgiven yourself for murdering your brother.
  
  > Go south
  Mom and Dad would see you if you went out there. Then you'd be grounded. And you'd have to go to bed.
  
  You can hear the TV going in the other room.

  You hear your parents talking in the living room, but it's too faint to make out what they're saying.
