really big moths

everyone please, stay calm, do not panic, check to be sure you have your 72-hour-kits, evacuation buddy nearby and the emergency flyswatters taken from your pack firmly in hand. If you glance quickly at this clearly-coded map we are now passing out to all, you will find our planned escape route outlined in purple, along with alternate routes (should anything prevent us from taking our original route [none of those spasms! please remain calm!]) outlined in yellow, green, and pink. this is no time to lose our heads! we must be brave, and stand up to anything that will come in our way, for it will, and we must fight our way out of this! (now, really! we could be left without any water but what's in our packs for days at a time, and you're choosing a time like this to cry?!) if one of us falls on the way out, we must press on. by the time they are taken, there will be little we can do by staying behind. (deep breaths, everyone.) and if i don't make it out of here, know i love you all. this is what defines us as men (or women) -- our courage in the face of brutal, flapping death. now, square your shoulders, check one more time for your flyswatters, you buddy, your kits, and your maps. the time is now, my friends. this is the real deal. now, attack!

the family fights valiantly against the huge home-invaders, and each kill hundreds in countless displays of courage and fortitude. but, alas, the massive creatures tremendously outnumbered them, and overpowered them. their flyswatters in hand, they perished under the onslaught like true heroes. indeed, we as a community will forever remember their sacrifice with honor and emotion. may they rest in peace.
