The night was quiet as it had been for hours. Cold and quiet the kids cocooned themselves in
their blankets. This was the night he
snuck in. Overweight, with a smell like
no other, his crisp beard rustled as he rubbed it, he was quiet and fleet of
foot but had a heaviness to him that made him the worst house invader that
could be imagined. Entering the house
was his first misstep. He rattled everything and made an abrupt noise when he
fell, sort of like a scream but quieter.
As he rummaged around he finally located what he needed and did the
deed. He looked around and saw a tree
the most still tree he had ever witnessed calmly sitting seeming to wait for
something he wondered what but then he noticed something else. The red and blue
lights shown with the green being the brightest and the shine like no other he
kind of light he danced away. Another light flew on in the house a man walked
down stairs, but the invader had gone, out the way he came, seeming to disappear
without a trace his deed done, the other man got his water and turned off the
light. The night was silent again.
