Click and Clack

I revved my feet and dashed straight across the smooth wooden table. Whoosh! Right in front of me was a long plastic stick with a shiny silver button on top. I pressed it down with my glove. CLICK! A tiny black point snapped out from the other end. I blinked. Why did it just poke its little nose out like that? That made no sense at all. I tapped it again. CLACK! The nose vanished. CLICK, CLACK, CLICK! It made a sharp, snappy beat. My sneakers started tapping right along. This thing is completely weird, but I kind of love it.
