Acid Mouse Trap

It's late at night but everything in the house is glowing with an acid trip color flow. As I'm crawling into bed I hear tiny chatter from the other bedroom, which strikes me as odd, since I am the only one home. As I approach the door of the bedroom I see through the cracked opening a family of mice discussing mice-like matters. There is a papa mouse, mama, baby, and grandmother. The papa and grandmother seem to be having a heated conversation so they don't notice my presence. I creep into the kitchen to find a container to capture the family in but as I reach into the cupboard under the sink a giant white centipede strikes like a cobra at my hand leaving fang shaped wounds. Despite my pain and surprise I quickly grab the container and shut the cupboard. I then ambush the mouse family and catch with ease the father, mother, and baby but have a difficultly with grandma mouse. She gets extremely sassy and tries to scratch me so I have to slap her around a bit but after a few minutes of struggle, get her into the container. After releasing the angry family of mice outside and apologizing thoroughly, I return to the spare bedroom where I try to calm down by dancing around to music in the many costumes my house is well supplied with.
