Sudden movement was definitely not a welcome sound in the middle of the night. And certainly not that kind of sound. It was fast, a sort of clicking that seemed incredibly loud in the dead quiet room. That was very similar to the sound he had heard when he, Red, and von Karma had come across a scorpion that one night. So when he whipped his attention toward the noise, he was half-expecting to see that blasted thing again.

To tell the truth, he probably would have preferred the scorpion. Because there crawling out from under the shelves were...! OH GOD, they were two huge...!!

There was not even a second's hesitation or thought. Klavier simply reacted on immediate instinct. He pedaled backward a few steps and just let out a loud SCREAM. Oh. Oh, no! Nononono! ARGH! NO. EW. What the hell?!
