Gremlin Quest

Gertrude gulped down the Wellbutrin lozenge complete with a full glass of vodka, when the bottom of the glass swirled and sucked Gertrude into a violent headspin like a funnel into the medicine cabinet, spitting her out into an unusual setting—instead of the expected torch lit caves, Gertrude found herself lost in a differently labyrinthine system: a high school locker room. As she wandered through the dungeonous depressing pathways of cold cement floors, grimy shower stalls, and rusted locker doors, Gertrude felt the nihilistic dread of puberty, and came upon an intersection—turning left would send her to the pool, turning right would send her to the weight room.
