Monster invades my basement

Daddy assembled a monster this evening, right in the middle of the basement. Now, I can't run around and chase my toys or go to the bookcase to sniff some old stinky books.

It's a big black contraption. Daddy sat on it and made different arm movements that made the monster move.

I barked and barked, but the monster didn't get scared. I was afraid to get too close to it, so I barked from a far.

I showed it my meanest teeth and put on my scariest bark and howl but to no avail. Nothing. It didn't budge one inch! It was not afraid of me. And I wanted to show it who's the boss. I'm have the run of the basement, not this monster.

Now it's difficult to enter the basement, because this monster is at the bottom of the stairs and I'm afraid to get too close to it. Who knows, it could start moving even when Daddy isn't sitting on it.

So I have to run by it fast and as close to the other wall as possible.

I need to come up with a scarier plan.

Maybe I could ask Mister Hoover for help (but Mister Hoover and I are NOT really the best of friends.)
