Rick took a deep breath and reached for the doorknob. Then he turned it.
The first thing he saw was a figure draped in black and the second thing he saw was a pale white hand reaching out for him, then he was in the hallway, making a mad dash for the front door.
"What the fuck?" he heard Brenda/Sydney utter, upon his exit from the bedroom. He guessed that she didn't expect a little kid. And then, as he ran, she shouted out "Get back here!"
But he didn't. He ran as fast as he could in his new smaller body and then finally made it to the front door. He quickly opened it and fled from the house.
