"So the dust can strike at any time," Jerry continued. "You saw it at twilight and evening. We both saw it in the middle of the night, and yesterday it showed up in the afternoon."

 

"The dust's picked up and thrown a porcelain figurine, a watch, a baseball, and scariest of all, a person...Marion." Karen's eyes teared when she mentioned her neighbor's name.

 

"So all we have to do is find a way to stop something that can appear and kill us at any time, with no warning," Jerry said. "Sounds easy enough."

"It was really weird," Kady said. "At first I heard some
kind of strange noise...I think Mr. Urloch was fighting   
with a fish in the boat."

"What do you mean 'fighting with a fish'? Was the fish
so big that the man was struggling to get it off his
pole?"

"No. That's not what happened." She spoke quietly
and gazed at the ground. "I think this fish jumped into

his boat. Then it was biting his neck."
