“It seemed cool at the time,” Trevor said. “Obviously, I didn’t think it through.”

“Ugh. Come on, let’s get what we need and get outta there,” Manny said. “We don’t have a second to lose.”

Mega-Q zapped out the alarm system, and Kraydon smashed the locked door handle and the door swung open.

“Your uncle’s gonna be mad!” said Freddie, looking at the busted door.

“What else are we supposed to do?” Manny said. “He’ll have to understand.”

Inside the warehouse, there were storage shelves all the way to the ceiling. They were stacked with metal tanks of industrial-strength bug-killing chemicals.

They read: Keep Away from Open Flame! Highly Flammable!

The kids grabbed the extermination gear and hoisted the metal tanks over their shoulders like backpacks. Oddo, Kraydon, and Yapzilla carried two extra tanks apiece and followed the kids. They hustled out of the warehouse and darted back into the bug-infested night.

Back at the cornfield, the sound of the feeding frenzy filled the air. The kids split up and began to cover the field’s perimeter with the toxic chemicals. The entomons ignored them. They were too busy eating and multiplying.

“It’s not working!” Nina shouted.

“Just give it a minute,” Manny said. “My uncle says they use the strongest stuff on the market.”

“Well, your uncle never had to exterminate giant bug monsters from the deranged imagination of some psychotic sixth grader!” Quincy said, spraying another round of insecticide.

“I’m not psychotic!” Trevor replied. “I’m just misunderstood.”

Nina looked over at Yapzilla. “Are you thinking what I’m thinking?”

Yapzilla nodded with a sly smile.

“You want us to set everything on fire?” Trevor asked her.

“Good thinking, Nina!” Jordan said.

Quickly, they doused the rest of the field with the spray, and Yapzilla, now the size of an ostrich, reared back and unleashed a torrent of flames. The fire hit the insecticide, and the whole field went up in a blaze.

Pop! Pop! Pop!

The kids ducked for cover in a roadside ditch as the cornfield burst with popcorn.

The bugs were right in the thick of the fire. A high-pitched insectile screech pierced the air as the entomons burned and sizzled.
