CYOA – Pg. 40

You can’t just leave that poor dog in this crazy place, so you quickly untie him, take him by the leash, and run up the stairs.  It seems that the dog is as eager to leave as you are and begins to pull you faster than you can even run.  At the top of the stairs you eventually lose your footing and fall while the leash is still wrapped around your wrist.  For the next several feet you knock over potted plants, lamps, end tables, chess sets, vases, *insert comical object here, grandfather clocks…

All this noise does not go unnoticed and a very angry creepy old man is now between you and the front door.  You think that this is the end, but then the dog streaks toward him and lunges at his throat.  Apparently the dog had some pent up anger issues toward him.  As the dog is mauling the man, your hand comes free from the leash and you head straight for the door.  You jump into your car and as you’re about to shut the door, the dog comes running out with something that looks like an ear in its mouth.  You let him jump into the back seat and you stomp on the gas and screech out of there.

As you drive away you wonder if you have time to make your next delivery before going to the police… perhaps this is one of those occasions that the 30 minute guarantee does not apply.

The End.
