Blinking in the Dust

Click! Flick! A tiny red dot was glowing right in the shadows under the table! I scrambled headfirst into the carpet, scuttling right toward it—*boing!* My head bumped straight into a discarded brass key. Clatter! It spun around and stopped right next to an unplugged power strip with a flickered switch. *Hehehe!* I poked the cold metal key with both hands, shoved it against the red switch, and watched the little light buzz. Shiny! Secret treasures hide in the dark corners!
