It was raining, small droplets of water pouring down on my body. I tiptoed on my newly-bought leather shoes, trying to avoid adding any more noise to the already noise-drenched environment. I stooped low, fumbling for the key to the door under the ragged mat which held the only passage to my safe haven.
Reaching for the key, I struck something. It was most definitely not a key.

It was something slimy. Something wet and was pulling my hand in. I shrieked, attracting a small crowd of onlookers who seemed engaged by my shouts. I tried to jerk my arm, only to fail. I peeked under the mat...and it was an unidentified being.

Embarassed at the crowd which was ever-largening, I kicked the creature three times and it slid away...leaving a small bunch of round white dots -- which I presumed were eggs, which I later crushed so as to not have any more incidences like that -- and the key buried under them.

As I opened the door, imagine the horror as I noticed the whole room was filled with them.
