An unusual looking flower.

Looking out the window, I noticed a strange looking flower in the garden. While I rarely paid attention to Mom's hobby, I was almost certain that it wasn't there when I went to bed. It almost seemed to be breathing. I sighed.

"Make sure my toast doesn't burn, you little gremlin," I muttered as I walked to the backdoor, "or I'll stick your face in the toilet again." "Mom said not to do that anymore!" I ignored him as I went outside. It was a crisp autumn morning and I shivered slightly. I decided to hurry up and see what the hell was up with this flower. It looked like a giant purple leafed diasy. To my amazment, the center was indeed going in and out, like a person's chest while breathing. I knelt down for a closer look. It sank in deeply and...

"Gah! Fuck!" I shouted as it sprayed me with blue powder. I coughed hard, rubbing my face. My eyes watered, my throat and nose burned from what I inhaled. I felt sick. Stumbling back inside, I pointed to the phone, coughing.

"Call an ambulance," I tried to say, but even I could barely hear my voice. "What?" my stupid little brother asked. I felt faint. I picked up the phone and dialed 911. After that, I really didn't remember anything else. I blacked out.
