                A long howl awoke Stephanie and Mrs. Johnson.  Stephanie sat upright on the bed and said:

-“That came from the guys room!”

                Mrs. Johnson put on her robe and ran after Stephanie.

-“Jake, Johnny!  Open the door now!!”

                Jake, still on his boxers, opened the door. Mrs. Johnson came in running and looked at the tied werewolf.

-“Oh, thank god you two got it! Where did you get the chains?” – Said Mrs. Johnson. –“Are you hurt?”

                Jake couldn’t talk. Stephanie walked pass him and stared at the werewolf. This werewolf was darker than the two that had attacked them at their house, but Stephanie was looking at its eyes; those big brown eyes. Stephanie let out a tear, just as Mrs. Johnson asked:

-“Where’s Johnny? Is he hurt again?”

-“Mom, that is Johnny…” – said Jake finally saying something.

-“What!? But, that’s impossible…. That’s….”

-“We need to do something to get him quiet, before the motel people send somebody to investigate.” – said Stephanie thinking quickly. –“Or worse, the other werewolves come here…”

-“What can we do?” – Asked Jake, while Mrs. Johnson remained speechless.

-“I dunno. Maybe drug him with something.”

-“I got some sleeping pills from when I was at the hospital, but how are we going to give him the pills?” – said Mrs. Johnson.

-“I think I got an idea.” – said Stephanie taking the ice tray. –“Jake go fill this with ice, and mom get to pulverize some of the pills.”

                Jake ran to get the ice, while his mother went back to her room to get the pills. Mrs. Johnson took one of her shoes and hit the pills until they were completely pulverized, when she returned back to the boys room Jake had already arrived with the ice.

-“Okay, now what little Einstein?” – asked Jake.

-“Now we need blood…” – Said Stephanie.

-“Blood? Where are we gonna get blood?” – Asked Jake.

-“I dunno!” – Yelled Stephanie. –“I need a blanket… Go get it.”

                Mrs. Johnson and Jake ran to get a blanket. While they were out, Stephanie took one of the tiny bottles from the refrigerator and smashed it on the ground. With one of the broken pieces of glass, Stephanie cut herself in the palm of her right hand. Blood began flowing and Stephanie caught it with the ice bucket. Johnny sniffed the air in anticipation and locked his eyes to Stephanie’s.

-“Like that, uh?”- Asked Stephanie. –“I bet you do…”

                Jake and Mrs. Johnson came into the room with the blanket and saw Stephanie bleeding.

-“What did you do?” – Asked Mrs. Johnson in a very high pitched voice.

-“Nothing! Did you get the blanket?” – Asked Stephanie.

-“Yes!” – Said Jake handing Stephanie the blanket.

                Stephanie took the blanket and wrapped it around the end of a broom that was lying behind the door. Johnny kept his eyes locked at Stephanie while she did that. Stephanie then wet the blanket with the ice, blood and pulverized pills. Stephanie put the wet blanket very close to Johnny’s snout. Johnny smelled it in anticipation and as soon took a huge bite out of the trap Stephanie had set for him. Stephanie repeated the process until she was sure she had given him all of the pulverized pills.

-“I hope this doesn’t overdose him…” – Said Jake.

-“I didn’t think about that, but it’s too late now.” – Said Stephanie. –“Now, can somebody help me with my hand?”

-“Right!” – Said Mrs. Johnson taking Stephanie’s hand on her own.

Johnny’s breathing slowed as Mrs. Johnson washed Stephanie’s hand; in a few minutes he had fallen soundly asleep. The huge wolf fell limp into the chains that held it.

“Now, somebody has got to watch him…” – Said Stephanie.
