Standing in a circle back to back, the three of us listen closely as the demobats calm down after an unsuccessful attempt at trying to find a way into our trailer.

"Hey dipshits!! Give up that easy huh?!" Dustin taunts loudly, holding onto his spear in a death grip.

"Shhhh!! Is that really necessary?" Eddie scolds the boy as I hold up my gun defensively, getting ready to shoot at anything that jumps out at us.

"They're on the roof..." Eddie whispers, and I gape in horror as the scratching sounds on the roof creep towards a small vent in the ceiling.

"Shit, shit, shit, shit..." Dustin swears soundly, realizing the grave error we made when fortifying the trailer.

"They can't get in through there, can they?"  I ask in disbelief, and sure enough right as I say that the bats break through the vent, squealing loudly as they try to fit through the hole and attack us.

"Die, die, die!" I watch on helplessly as my brother yells out in a battle cry, him and Eddie running over and continuously stabbing the bats through the hole with their spears as they panic.

"Get out of the way!!" Eddie screams to Dustin chaotically as he pulls a chair up to the vent, climbing on it and thrusting his nail shield over the hole.

"Oh shit!" He exclaims in disbelief as the shield holds, effectively covering the vent so the bats can't get through.

"Nice." Dustin comments with a breath of relief, looking impressed as we all stare at the nail shield stuck onto the ceiling.

"Thanks..." Eddie accepts the compliment easily, giving Dustin a quick high five as we listen to the bats scraping against the shield barrier frustratedly.

"Uh, Eddie... are there any other vents in here?" I ask hesitantly, and Eddie's eyes widen in realization as he looks over at me.

Following close behind as he races into his bedroom, we watch on in shock as the demobats immediately bust through a floor vent, swarming the entire room in a flash.

"Woah, get the fuck back!!" I immediately back out of the room, grabbing my brother by the collar and pulling him back with me as Eddie slams the door to the bedroom and locks the bats inside.

All three of us back away quickly as the bats start to slam against the door, causing the hinges to groan and the wood to start to crack under the pressure.

"That's not gunna hold!!" Dustin screeches in panic as we scramble back to the living room, not wanting to be trapped in here when it finally breaks.

"Let's go, let's go!!" I usher Dustin towards the gate and he immediately starts to climb up the rope to escape. Eddie and I push Dustin's butt and legs up to get him through faster, then it's my turn to climb.

"Come on, hurry!" Eddie pushes me up as I scramble to get through the gate.  With one last pull, I make it through and fall to the ground with a sigh.
