Bob

The following is an excerpt from Zhi Samajha's personal blog, used with permission:

      Being foreigner to this country from Luottaa, I keeping journal of times as groundskeeper for Atraville College to practice English.
      My job to take care of lawn and trees and stuff, but campus in bad shape. Something tearing up grass in many spots all over. Trees are being ripped out of dirt with roots sticking out. Dirt piled high some places. Fences and benches broken apart. I not know but think it some kind of terrible rodent.
      College President Dr. Puhemies very angry. He say lawn must be in best shape before summer. I not know how do. I afraid lose job then be sent back my country, Luottaa.
      I try everything get rid of rodents. I try critter control services, all kinds pesticides and pest control services. Nothing working. I try remedy from my own country, slime from a lutton worm, but it not work. I dig every day, every night, until I covered with slime, but no good.
      Professor Veritas say they creatures from dark realm. He say they not just destroying campus, they destroying people. I not know if believe him.
      I making regular rounds of campus. It late at night, after midnight, everything dark. I searching for more rodents. I using bright overhead directional globe as flashlight.
      I not see rodents, they bad destruction but hard find. I see something strange. I see movement near south side of student union, between Gell-Mann building and library. I think it rodent, so quietly go that way. And slowly too.
      Instead I see strange else. It is student with hat pull down over face. He wearing dark sunglasses and at night. Why? It is late. It is dark.
      I remember his name Bob. I see him before with Cecil, the one students call ‘The Champion’. They fight in energy duals. I watch him.
      He wandering, searching for something but not find. He looking down, searching through grass between buildings. He look down all time. He take energy stick out of pocket and check, then put back in pocket again.
      Then he do again.
      I watch he move to other side of campus, cross sidewalk, and search around Yukawa building. What he search for? Do he search for rodents too?
      He seem in strange place, not here. He seem very sick. I shine bright light on him and he still not see me.
      What happening to him? What wrong him?
      He take off hat, and there ugly dark blotches on skin. His face covered black blotches. What is it? What wrong? I see take off glasses just for moment, but I see.
      His eyes blazing like fire.
