[ WP ] the monster in the closet finally lures the child into the darkness , only to realize something is very very wrong

After days of scratching on the door post, whispering sweet lullabies and promises of delicious candies. The child finally gained the bravery to open the closet door. 
 
 Awoken by the sounds that plagued her dreams the young girl was adamant on finding its source. Her parents dismissed the activities she claimed deprived her of sleep as an overactive imagination but Sarah was wise. Her six year finesse was shown as she navigated the minefield of a room she had in search for the closet door knob. Half finished lego monuments and vacated Barbie dream houses littered this prepubescent paradise. Even in the dead of night Sarah's third eye discerned the location of the door that stood between her and the truth. She pushed it slowly open only to find her usual assortment of toys, shoes and clothes. 
 
 A purple tail flew from the darkness and swiftly wrapped itself around Sarah's ankle quickly suspending her in the air as two bright blue dots came closer from the closets depths. 
 
 `` Hello child, and here I thought I would have to get you in your bed because you were too scared to approach me. Let me take a small sample of the palate today.'' A serpent like voice with a lisp said revealing a row of pearly whites and began leaning in opening its mouth ever wider. 
 
 `` Wow what nice teeth you have there.'' Sarah stated with an unenthusiastic look on her face and arms folded. 
 
 `` Why thank you. I like it when a meal makes me feel good about the way I look.'' The serpent retorted flustered by the complement. 
 
 `` It would be a shame if you lost them.'' Sarah said maintaining eye contact. 
 
 `` Wait what..'' 
 
 Sarah leaned foward breaking the two larger fangs off of the jaw of her attacker. The tail that kept her off the ground now loosened as the monster writhed in agony falling back in the closet knocking over jackets and toys. The girl stood in stone gaze taking in the situation that jad passed and released a long sigh shaking her head in disapproval. 
 
 `` Today it ends today.'' 
 
 She sprinted toward the lizard recovering from his loss, brandishing his teeth as make shift daggers. The creature took in the sight of this menacing child and attempted to meet her in combat by charging back at her. Before the two collided, Sarah slid under the beast and slashed its knees. A howl was released as the monster fell to the ground. Some time passed in silence with the two now on opposite sides of the room. The beast broke the silence by slowly crawling away form the bringer of its now unfortunate fate. Leaving a trail of florescent green blood Sarah plopped through the mess it with a somber demeanor, manipulating the tooth in her brightly colored hand. 
 
 `` Please mercy. I beg you, let me escape with my life.'' 
 
 The now defeated serpent pleaded while eyeing the window as his final hope of living. The six year old jumped up on the back of the monster leaning over to its ear and whispering one final word to it. 
 
 `` Boo.'' 
 
 And with that a twin tooth assault punctured throat of her assailant, the last few struggles of life escaped the now limp and dead monster. Sarah now sat in pensive thought atop the fallen foe taken in the circumstances that had just unfolded. Her thoughts were cut short as her parents opened the bedroom door and her mother shrieked in terror over what she saw. Her husband embraced his frightened wife lovingly and told her. 
 
 `` She is ready.''
