Billy Baxter is just five years old
And this is his first day at school
Billy Baxter is a good kid
Billy Baxter is cool
Getting off the School Bus Billy makes his way to his first class
After wandering around finding his way Billy finally finds the
right room
He sits down and straight away he feels something rotten wriggling
around in his bottom
Billy starts squirming on his chair he doesn’t know what to do
His Teacher notices that Billy is looking uncomfortable
and he asks Billy does he need to have a toilet break
Billy nods his Head and he runs out of the classroom
Billy runs as fast as he can but he cant stop the inevitable
He is embarrassed as his Bowels empty
But there isn’t any crap all he can see are about fifty white
Worms each about four inches long
The Worms scatter in all directions and as they move they seem
to be growing
Billy is feeling very weak as he makes his way back to class
But about halfway there all of the classroom doors are flung open
as about three hundred kids try to reach the toilets
But most of them don’t make it and there is an eruption of the Worms
all over the corridor floor
The kids are all wandering around in bewilderment they don’t know
what is happening
Why are they shitting Worms and where did the Worms come from?
Billy has had enough and he slowly makes his way home
He has to get away from the Worms maybe his Mum has all of the
answers
She will give him some Medicine and all will be well
He shudders as he thinks about the Worms from Hell
Arriving home Billy shouts out to his Mother
But there is no answer and there is a chill in the air
Billy knows that he should get the fuck out of there
Billy just said the F word for the first time in his short life
Billy knows that he is in the middle of a whole lot of strife
But he has to know what has happened to his Mother
Maybe she has gone shopping maybe she is drinking a Coffee
or she is getting her Hair cut
But Billy has a sinking feeling deep down in his gut
Opening up the front door Billy can hear a weird sound coming
from the back of the house somewhere near the Kitchen or maybe
the hall
God maybe Mama has taken a nasty fall
Billy runs inside but of his Mother there isn’t any trace
Her Car is in the driveway her handbag is on her Bed
Where can she be?
Billy doesn’t know what to do so he just heads back to school
Maybe all of the Worms have gone away?
Maybe tomorrow will be a Worm free day?
No such luck
Billy arrives at the School grounds and it looks like the Worms
have done the rounds
Pupils and Teachers lay on the ground writhing in agony as
the Worms crawl in one hole and out of another
Billy cant stop thinking what happened to his Mother?
The Worms are getting bigger some are the size of a Cobra
some the size of an Anaconda
Billy just stands there his Mouth open in wonder
Where did the Worms come from?
Did they come from outer space?
Will they spell the end of the Human race?
Billy is still standing there with his Eyes bugging out
When someone grabs him by the Arm into the Library
It is a young girl who goes by the name of Mary
Mary is Eight years old and Billy is Five
Two little kids just trying to stay alive
They stand there at the Library window watching the carnage
outside
The Worms are getting so big you could almost take them for a ride
Billys and Marys hands each other and become entwined
If Billy could find the remote he would press rewind
Life before the Worms was pleasant enough
Billy tried to act big and tough
But now that the Worms are here
Maybe big and tough want be enough
But big and tough is all that Billy has he is only Five but he
tries to act Sixteen
Even though he has a Baby face he tries to look nasty and mean
Billy and Mary walk the back streets of town looking over their
shoulders not making a sound
At the edge of the Soccer field they see a person being devoured by
about twenty Worms
Billy feels something in his gut wriggle and squirm
The Worms are getting bigger they seem to be growing by the hour
Billy and Mary hide behind a Tree frightened and cower
The Worms are now twenty foot long and as thick as a Mans thigh
Billy knows that the time is right to be mister tough guy
But first things first Billy goes to a public restroom to put his stomach
at ease
But the pain gets bad and Billy falls to his knees
He feels the Worms coming out and they land with a plop
Billy
What he could do with now is a Worm destroying Cop
He and Mary go to the Community centre to see if they can find
anymore people still alive
There is only an old couple the local Mechanic and a guy named
Clive
So out of a population of about a Thousand people only Six have
survived the Worms attack
Billy just wants to run and never come back
But he cant do it he has to save his town
The only way to go is up he is tired of being down
The old couple are a Mr and Mrs Armstrong from Carlyle street
They race over to Billy and Mary and tell them to have a seat
They want to hear the latest news
Are the Worms still on the rampage?
Is the town going to make it?
But Billy and Mary have no answers there is nothing but empty streets
except of course the giant Worms
There is no one to meet or greet
The Mechanic Wayne has been working with spanners for a lot of years
While Clive is the town oddball but he is harmless enough
They both just sit there shaking but they are glad to be alive
Billy doesn’t know what to do but he has to come up with a plan before the
Worms spread any further
Then Billy remembers how he has been shitting Worms and then flushing the
toilet
So now the Worms are in the Water system
He tells the others that if they have been shitting Worms not to flush the
toilet
Just fill the shitter with Bleach and maybe that will kill them
Even though Billy is only Five he has become the leader he tells Wayne and
Clive to collect as much Petrol as they can
And then we will all meet up at the Church in half an hour
Mr and Mrs Armstrong are talking with Mary trying to think of a way to kill
the Worms
Billy tells them that he has come up with a plan
And then he tells them all about it
A half hour later they meet up with Wayne and Clive
They have filled about twenty containers with Gasoline
Billy tells them to pour the gas all around and don’t spare a drop
Hopefully now they can give the Worms the chop
Billy then opens the front of the Church and he gives a little whistle
And Mary up in the Church tower starts to ring the Church Bells
All of the Worms look up at the sound of the Bells
To them it is the sound of the dinner bell
They all wriggle and squirm their way inside
And when they are all of the way inside Wayne slams the front door
shut so the Worms cant escape
Billy joins the rest of the survivors at the churches back door
And with one strike Billy lights a match and throws it inside
Then he slams the back door shut
With a whoosh the fire catches and the Church begins to burn
Hopefully there will be a thousand fried Worms
Billy thinks that he can hear a screaming sound coming from inside
But he just walks away with out a second thought
Over the next few days Billy and his crew go around town killing off
any stray Worms
The danger is abating the Worms are all gone and the town is still standing
Except for the Church
Then Billy remembers the Worms that got flushed into the water supply
Will it ever end just when he was feeling proud and covered in glory
Will Billy finish off the Worms?
You will just have to wait cause that is another story.
THE END.
