  > look around
  Your Bedroom (on your bed)
  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, which you have pushed up against the closet door and your bed. The way out to the hallway is to the southwest.
  
  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.
  
  > kill the monster
  (first getting off your bed)
  You get off of your bed.
  
  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 runs for the closet, but with the crib in the way, finds itself unable to open the door. Danny's glowing white shirt forces the monster back away from the closet before it can get a good grip on the door. Realizing how complete a trap you have laid for it, and that you have it trapped, it turns towards you to make its final stand.
  
  > examine the monster
  You see nothing special about the monster.
  
  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.

  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.

  Putting things on the monster would achieve nothing.

  Danny takes the blacklight and drops Donald Duck.

  > give the light to Danny
  Danny takes the blacklight and drops Donald Duck.
  
  > turn on the light
  (first getting off your bed)
  You get off of your bed.
  
  You switch the blacklight on.
  
  The clock in the living room chimes twelve times. Midnight!
  Realizing what time it is, you quickly run to your bed to prepare for the monster. It's now or never, you're either ready or you're not!
  
  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!
  
  > turn on the light
  (first getting off your bed)
  You get off of your bed.
  
  You switch the blacklight on.
  
  The monster shrieks 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 makes a dash for the bed, but then realizes that its escape route has been blocked by the glowing white sheet you have laid under the bed. It stops in its tracks, and looks around, panicked, before looking at the closet.
  
  Danny bites down on the blacklight bulb, which breaks in his mouth. He immediately starts screaming as shards of glass cut up his mouth and throat. Your parents come running in, and shriek upon seeing the blood coming from his mouth. Mom grabs him and screams, running to call the hospital while Dad yells at you about giving him something so dangerous and for going out of your room to get it. Danny is rushed to the hospital, where the doctors are able to save him. But you get a very serious spanking. Danny is kept in the hospital for several days, so at least the monster doesn't get him, but still, it seems like there may have been a better way to save him.
  
  > wait
  Time passes.

  You lack the nerve when it comes to the crucial moment.

  The monster doesn't seem interested.

  > ask Donald about the monster
  "Monsters are dangerous creatures. They only come out at night, and the light scares them away. Normal weapons won't hurt them- not even a bazooka! Only light can hurt a monster." says Donald.

  This is not the time to escape. It's time for you to make your stand.
