Small animals crawling over the walls is never a good thing. But drunken shirtless frat boys with baseball bats trying to kill them is actually worse. And this, I knew from long experience of my sister's parties, was the high point of the evening, the point from which things only got worse.
Author notes
I actually rediscovered this recently in some old papers; I think I wrote it two or three years ago. It's just an opening paragraph right now, but I very well may write the story that goes with it. Posted especially for the contest.
"Kidnap the Sandy Claws" --Winnie-the-Pooh and Christmas too? My best guess.

haha, thank you. That's actually all there is of the story at the moment; I wrote it a couple years ago. Though I dug it out recently, and people have been wanting to hear the rest, so I may just have to write it. We'll see.

Actually 'Kidnap the Sandy Claws' is from The Nightmare Before Christmas!

Good. I now want the story, NOW!!

This would make a very interesting story. This is a beginning that would encourage the reader to read more, because it's unexpected!
Good luck writing this story, if you do decide to write it!
