      Tom groggily sat up, wincing as pain shot through his head. He slowly stood up but almost immediately fell down again as his legs crumpled beneath him. After a few more attempts, he was able walk a little ways while holding onto the wall. Tom looked around so see what had knocked him over. Then he noticed a small black lump a few feet away. Tom didn't exactly want to know what this creature was but curiosity finally convinced him to go investigate the lump. He was  slowly making his way over to it, when the lump began to unfold. Tom backed away as the creature sat up. It was a black fox. Tom relaxed but then fully realized that a black fox had gotten into his living room. Tom ran to the phone and dialed his mom's cellphone number.
      "Hello?" his mom asked.
      "Hi, Mom, this is Tom.Uh, Mom? I know this will sound super strange, but somehow, a black f--".
      "What? A black what?" his mom answered, confused.
      No answer.
      "Hello? Tom? Are you still there?"
      Still no answer. Tom's mom quickly hung up and raced to the front of the store, out the door, into her car, and speedily drove home, completely forgetting her purse.
      A old man hobbled over to her abandoned cart and stealthily rummaged through her purse, but disappointingly found nothing, because in her hurry to leave her house to get her shopping done, Tom's mom had forgotten to bring any money.
