Transcripts
chapter 12. inside the barn
Kendra and Seth located the path just as
the seders had instructed and soon
re-encountered the nickel-sized holes
that served as the perfect trail of
breadcrumbs towards home
those guys were idiots Seth said they
did save us from the ogres Kendra
reminded him they could have helped us
rescue grandpa but they blew us off he
wore a scowl as they continued along the
path
as they neared the yard they heard the
inhuman groan again the same sound they
had heard while exiting the basement
only louder than ever they halted the
perplexing sound was coming from up
ahead a long planetive moan comparable
to a blast from a fog horn
Seth dug some of the remaining salt out
of his pocket and rushed ahead with
their Quicken Pace they were soon back
to the edge of the yard everything
appeared normal
they saw no hulking behemoths capable of
the enormous sound that they had heard
you know that salt didn't do much
against the Seder Kendra whispered it
probably only burns the bad creatures he
replied I think the ogre lady picked
some up it was all mixed in the dirt by
then you saw it torched those guys last
night
they waited hesitant to enter the yard
now what Kendra asked the mighty groan
resounded across the yard nearer and
louder the shingles on the barn are
rattled it's coming from the barn Seth
said we never looked there Kendra said I
didn't think about it the Monstrous
groan blared a third time
the barn shuddered birds flew up from
the eaves
you think something took Grandpa and
Lena into the barn Kendra said sounds
like it's still there
Grandpa told us never to enter the barn
I think I'm already grounded Seth said
no I mean what if he keeps ferocious
creatures in there it might have nothing
to do with his disappearance
it's our best chance what else are we
gonna look we have no other Clues the
tracks were a dead end at least we could
try to get a peek inside
Seth started for the barn with Kendra
following reluctantly behind the
Towering structure Rose a good five
stories tall topped by a Weather Vein in
the shape of a bull
Kendra had never studied it for
entrances until now she noted the
obvious set of large double doors in the
front along with some smaller access
doors along the side
the barn creaked and then started
shaking as if there was an earthquake
the sound of Timber splitting filled the
air followed by another mournful moan
Seth glanced back at Kendra something
huge was in there a few moments later
the barn grew still
chains and a heavy pound lock bound the
double doors in front so Seth moved
along the sides of the building quietly
trying the smaller doors all were locked
the barn had several windows but the
lowest were three stories off the ground
they stealthily circled the entire
building finding no doors unlocked there
weren't even any cracks or peoples
Grandpa sealed this plate up tight
Kendra whispered we may have to make
some noise to get inside Seth said he
started circling the building again I'm
not sure that would be smart all wait
till the barn starts shaking again Seth
sat down in front of a small door little
more than three feet high minutes passed
think it knows we're waiting Kendra
asked you're just bad luck stop saying
that
a fairy glided over near them Seth tried
to shoo it away get out of here the
ferry effortlessly dodged his chewing
motions the more vigorously he waved her
away the closer she came
stop it you're just egging her on Kendra
said I'm sick of fairies then ignore her
and maybe she'll leave
he stopped paying attention to the fairy
she came up right behind his head when
the proximity earned no reaction the
fairy landed on his head Seth slapped at
her missing as she wove around his
intended blows just when he jumped to
his feet to chase her the booming groan
came Again The Little Door trembled Seth
plopped back down and started ramming on
the door with both feet the moaning
muffled most of the impact's noise on
the fifth kick the edge of The Little
Door split and swung open
Seth rolled away from the opening and
Kendra stepped aside as well
digging in his pockets Seth withdrew the
remnants of assault
want some he mouthed Kendra accepted
some salt a second or two later the
deafening moans ceased Seth gestured for
Kendra to wait he crept through the
small door Kendra waited squeezing the
salt in her Palm
Seth reappeared in the opening wearing
an inscrutable expression you have to
see this
what don't worry come look
Kendra duck through the little doorway
the enormous Barn contained just one
cavernous room with a few closets around
the perimeter the entire room was
dominated by a single gigantic cow
not what I expected Kendra murdered in
disbelief she gawked at the Colossal
bovine in amazement the huge head was up
near the rafters 40 or 50 feet in the
air a Hayloft spanning the entire side
of the barn served as a feed box the
cow's hooves were the size of hot tubs
the tremendous udder was absolutely
bulging milk beaded and dripped from
teats almost the size of punching bags
the gargantuan cow cocked its head
staring down at the newcomers in the
barn it let out a long moo making the
barn Shake simply by shifting its stance
holy cow Kendra muttered you can say
that again I know grandpa will be
running out of milk anytime soon
we're friends Kendra called up to the
cow the cow tossed its head and began
munching from The Hayloft why haven't we
heard this thing before Seth wondered
she probably never moves I think she's
in pain Kendra observed see how swollen
the utter looks I bet it could fill a
swimming pool
seriously someone probably milks her
every morning and nobody did today said
Seth they stood and stared the cow
continued munching from the hay loft
Seth pointed at the back of the barn
look at the manure
sick
the world's biggest cow pie you would
notice that
the cow let out another bellowing
complaint the most insistent so far they
clamped their hands over their ears
until the lowing stopped
we should probably try to milk her
Kendra said how are we supposed to do
that Seth cried there has to be a way
they must do it all the time we can't
even reach her thingies
I bet that cow could tear this place
apart if she wanted I mean look at her
she keeps getting more upset her utter
looks like it's about to burst who knows
what kind of power she has her milk lets
people see fairies the last thing we
need is a gigantic magical cow running
around loose it could be total Mayhem
folding his arms Seth surveyed the task
this is impossible we need to search the
closets maybe they have special tools
what about Grandpa
we're out of leads said Kendra if we
don't milk this cow we could end up with
a new disaster on our hands
in the closets they found a variety of
tools and equipment but no obvious gear
for milking gargantuan cows there were
empty barrels all around in and out of
the closets which Kendra figured must be
used for catching milk in one closet
Kinder found a couple of A-frame ladders
these might be all we need she said
how do we even get our hands around
those things we don't
there has to be a gigantic milking
machine Seth then I'm not seeing
anything like that but it might work if
we just hung and drop are you nuts why
not Kendra said motioning between the
teats and the floor isn't that far from
the nipple to the ground
we're not trying to use barrels no we
can waste the milk barrels we get in the
way we just need to relieve the pressure
what if she steps on us she hardly has
any room to move if we stay under the
utter we'll be fine
they dragged the ladders into position
one beside each of two teats on the same
side of the mammoth cow they climb the
ladders only by standing one wrong from
the top were they high enough to grip
the teeth near the utter Seth stood
waiting while Kendra tried to get into
position
these feel wobbly she said balance
she hesitantly stood upright it felt a
lot higher than it looked from the
ground
you ready no I bet this Barn will hold
her we have to at least try
hug the thingy and slide down Seth asked
we'll trade off you then me then you
then me will then we'll do the other
side
how about you start it you're better at
this sort of stuff Kendra said that's
true I milk a lot of giant cows I'll
show you my trophy sometime
seriously you start urged Kendra what if
it hurts her
I don't think we're big enough I'm more
worried about if we're not going to be
able to get any out
so I should squeeze as hard as I can
Seth confirmed sure once I do it you'll
do it and we'll just keep going as fast
as we can and if I ever find a giant Cow
Milking trophy I'll buy it for you
Kendra offered I'd rather we kept her a
little secret you ready
go for it hesitantly Seth placed a hand
against the huge teat the cow mood and
he recoiled crouching and grabbing the
ladder with both hands to steady himself
Kendra tried to stay balanced as she
laughed finally the Foghorn moo ended I
changed my mind Seth said I'll count to
three said Kendra you go first or I'm
not doing it I almost fell and wet my
pants at the same time
one two three Seth stepped off the
ladder embracing the T he slid down it
and fell to the floor along with an
impressive jet of milk Kendra stepped
off and hugged her teeth as well even
with her holding it tightly it slid
through her Embrace faster than she
expected she hit the floor with warm
milk already soaking her jeans Seth was
on his way back up the ladder I'm
already disgusted he said stepping off
and sliding down again this time he kept
his feet when he landed Kendra went up
and slid down again hugging as hard as
she could she descended a little more
slowly but still fell over when she hit
the floor already milk was everywhere
soon they fell into a rhythm both of
them landing on their feet most of the
time the engorged utter hung low and
they got better at using the teat hug to
control their fall milk gushed copiously
while they were sliding the teats
sprayed like fire hoses it must have
been at least 70 jumps each before the
output began to slacken
other side Kendra gasped breathing hard
my arms are dead Seth complained we have
to hurry
they scooted the ladders over and
repeated the process Kendra tried to
pretend she was on a surreal playground
where the kids waited in milk instead of
sand and slid down thick meaty poles
Kendra focused on climbing the ladder
and Landing as lightly as possible she
worried that if either action became
routine she could have a bad accident
spraining an ankle breaking a bone or
worse
at the first time the flow of milk was
slackening they collapsed in exhaustion
not worried about lying in milk because
their clothes and hair were already
drenched both of them gulped air
desperately
Kendra put a hand to her neck
my heart is beating like a jackhammer
I thought I was gonna puke that was so
foul complaint Seth I'm more tired than
sick
about it you're dripping with warm raw
milk well your face rubs a cow nipple
about a hundred times
more than that we doused the whole Barn
Seth said I'm never drinking milk again
I'm never going to the playground can
drive out
what
hard to explain
Seth scanned the area under the cow the
floor has drains but I don't think much
of the milk is going down I saw a hose I
adopt the cow would like the milk
rotting all over the place Kendra sat up
and squeezed milk out of her hair that
was the best workout I ever had I'm dead
if I did that every day I'd look like
Hercules so Steph you mind glabbing the
ladders not if you do the hosing the
hose was long and had good water
pressure and the drains seemed to have
plenty of capacity flushing the milk
turned to be the easiest part of the
process Seth had Kendra hose him off and
then returned the favor from the time
the milking began in Earnest the cow
made no more noise and it displayed no
more interest in them they called for
Grandpa and Lena in the barn just to be
sure starting with small voices to avoid
startling the cow and gradually building
the shouts as they had been there a lot
all day their calls went unanswered
should we go back to the house Kendra
asked I guess it'll be dark before long
I am tired and hungry we should look for
food
they left the barn the day was waning
you have a big tear in your shirt Kendra
said I ripped or running from that ogres
I have a pink one you can borrow this
will work fine said Seth once it dries
off
the pink one would hide you just as well
as the camouflage Kendra said are all
girls as brainless as you you're telling
me a green shirt will make you invisible
to monsters
no less visible less is the point less
than your blue one
I guess I should find a green one too
