I had struggled to get to sleep. The stress of the year and a stomach issue all day had stripped the comfort I'd normally welcome, so I twisted fitfully in bed well into the morning.
Just as I was finally drifting to sleep, I heard a window open. I hurried to reach for my phone, calling 911. I peered out into the hallway, explaining my address and location.
My luck, a passing police truck arrived within the minute. The front door swung open with a heavy boot and an officer presumably entered. I heard a scream. I ran into the living room, shining my phone's flashlight to find the officer cowering in the corner.
...and then I saw it.
The glint of light against trumpet brass and a skeleton holding it. It played a simple 'doo-doot' note with the instrument and the officer and I soiled ourselves out of sheer terror.
