Several hours earlier, Keith slogged down a hallway leaving large pools of water to mark where his soggy shoes landed. He smiled to himself as he approached his room, feeling happy and pleased with himself and looking forward to getting into some dry clothes. For several hours, he had been chased by an alien girl in the garden with a hose after disrupting her work day one too many times. It had been fun, but now Keith was ready to be back inside his room. “Probably a good time to get some sleep.” Keith said to himself as he reached his door. He pressed his palm to the plate and the door immediately slid open. A fraction of a second later found Keith reflexively jerking backward as the entire doorway was filled with the figure of a person standing in the darkness. He immediately recognized that it was Claudia, grinning at him as though she had been waiting for him to open that door for quite some time. That very thought sent shivers up Keith’s neck and arms. What kind of person would do something like that?!

  1. ….Well that’s creepy!

  2. “What are you doing in my room? Er… and can you turn your skin green and your hair red? *yaaawn* …And do you snore?”

  3. It just became a good time to run away screaming, Kieth.

    It’s NEVER good when a woman grins at you like that, so please try to stay out of arm’s reach.

    1. Ill agree that it is a good time to run away screaming for Keith. With that evil look on Claudia’s face I would activate my gauntlet mounted energy blade if it was me in that position!

  4. Screw the screaming, RUN!

    Run like Rincewind!

    1. Who the heck is Rincewind? Ive never heard that name before.

      1. From Discworld. One famous exchange with him:
        Rincewind: “Run!”
        Other character: “Where to?”
        Rincewind: “From! The operative word is from!”

        1. Hahaha I love the Discworld series! Just read “Interesting Times” and I love his running away philosophy xD

    2. Awesome reference! Nearly made me spit tea out my nose when I read it. 🙂
      I will forever be equating Keith and Rincewind now.

      1. I’m sorry about the tea, but I’m glad you liked it otherwise. 🙂

  5. Wait… Several Hours Earlier??… Hmmm… *slightly confused*

    1. yep after the waterbattle before Chel decides that they should check on him. Apparently Claudia’s had him for a while…

      1. yeah but, it doesn’t say that it was earlier on the water battle scene.

  6. Oh Smeg…Rapeface on Claudia…run Keith. Run as fast as you can.

    1. Why am I getting that image of the Gary Oak meme? You know, the one where he’s chasing the Evee singing some messed-up rhyme. The poor critter has this expression like “OMG, nooooo, gotta get away!” in the last panel.

  7. that is an unnerving way to end today’s reading…
    run for your life Keith! she has dangerous thoughts in her mind for you!

  8. You STOLE that door sound from Star Trek !

    Good choice.

    1. That particular sound is made by every sliding door I can remember, except the ones on rollers… doesn’t sound stolen to me… it is a good choice though.

  9. Well time to get a good night’s DEAR GOD CLAUDIA WHY ARE YOU LOOKING AT ME LIKE THAT?!?!?

  10. RUN AWAY innocent and entertaining HUMAN!

  11. Fascinating, completely unexpected as well as creepy. The simple fact that the next page could have something to do with her was expected, but not in such a way.

  12. Sleep? What is this “Sleep” of which you speak?

  13. spirit of the chihuahua

    And now water is no longer the only puddle of liquid on the floor.

  14. “OH SHI-“
