Our Story in a Paragraph (or two)

In every child's life, there exists the Darkness. Somewhere within all of us lies the primeval Fear of the unknown. It could be anywhere, at anytime, but always in the dark. Every child must confront these fears, lest they be consumed by it. Not every fear is merely a phantasm, however. Not all bumps in the night are merely the wind in the trees, the water in the pipes. Not every fear is capable of bursting forth from the darkness of the bathroom sink, dripping and slithering its way directly towards you... but every fear can be conquered. By conquering their fear, children are opened up to a whole new world that can contain anything. Life, Happiness, and even the greatest treasure of all, Friendship.

When Billy must confront his fears of the dark, he doesn't know what to do. His mother has told him to go brush his teeth, but the light burns out unexpectedly. Unable to control his shivering, he loses his grip on the toothpaste cap and it falls down the drain! The pipes start to rumble and groan, something is coming up! A long, slithery tentacle bursts forth, and begins pursuing Billy around the room! No matter what he does to escape, the agile monster cuts him off at every turn! Only when he's finally cornered does Billy confront the tentacle, and discover that all it wanted to do was return the cap that he had lost! The tentacle gives a little wave and quietly returns from whence it came... and Billy discovers that not everything that slithers in the dark is to be feared.
