The need to just take and go was too strong. Nice as this kid was, Dustin wanted his vengence. Sneaking around the house, he pilfered a some clothes, food, even her backpack to stuff it in. Smiling to himself, he peeked into where the kid lay sleeping.
"Thanks for everything kid. You're sweet, but I've got to go." As he took a step out of the room though a sudden, powerful sensation wracked his body. Twisting and turning in pain, Dustin dropped those things as his body began to shrink again. Frightened, he started toward the door, but his fingers couldn't reach the handle by the time he reached it. The clothes he'd been wearing were now huge on his body as he stood, about the size of a normal rat.
Chittering and squeaking, he blinked around. The world looked huge, and suddenly he heard huge footsteps behind him and large hands picked him up.
"Oh Dustin, there you are you silly rat."
It was Lily, smiling at him. He tried to speak but all he could do was squeak. She took him back to her room where there was now a rat cage and put him inside.
