Lilliana gasped. "That's terrible!" "Yeah, its bad enough we're stuck in the middle of nowhere land without a Dunkin Donuts to get a coffee or a crueler from," piped in Mrs. Strider, "But to have a colossal bat that wants to eat us. Sheesh!"
"I'd run out there for a donut, no doubt," said Reggie, glumly. System44 and Out of the Blue were still trying to contact somebody on the bus radio. “Oh, Lord, look what he’s doing now,” said Pyriel looking out the back window. A few others joined him and watched, as a few yards back, the Creeper had attacked a hippie van. He flew away with at least three hippies in his claws. “Oh, wonderful, he took the hippies!” cried Nimiwae, falling back. “There is no hope for us now.”
``````````` Hours had passed, but everything remained the same. There was still a lonely bus filled with alarmed athletes. System and Blue gave up on the radio long before. Lilliana had just told them what she saw, and it caused a half-controversy. “Well, if it goes away at dawn, we just have a few hours left,” said Gothic Angel unsurely. “A few hours is still a lot of time. He could come back within that time,” said Bubbul. “What’s the chance in that?” asked Andrea. “He hadn’t come for us since three hours ago.
“Hey everybody!” shouted System. “Come look at this!” System was peering out a window in the side of the bus. Everyone came to his side and looked out too. “So what, Sys? All I see is a fence,” said Rika.
“Your right, Rika, it is just a fence. But a fence means a farm. And a farm means people. And people mean help. Someone just has to jump the fence, sprint through the pasture to the farm, and ask for help or to use the phone,” explained System.
“That’s so crazy, it just might work,” said Rika, “but who will go?” There was a long, silent pause. “We could draw straws…” murmured Lilliana.
``````````` “I hate you guys,” said Reggie, getting off the bus. “You lost fair and square, Reg,” said Pyriel. Reggie looked at him with a look of evil and hissed, “Shut. Up. Now.” System shut the door and said, “Hurry, Reggie. You don’t have much ti…” He was cut off by the sight off the Creeper zooming in on his prey.
