Fizzymagic's Big Adventure

Supremely confident of his ninja-like reflexes, Fizzy stabs his hand down into the trash can, intending to grasp the beetle around the thorax -- thus pinning its wings and preventing it from biting or escaping. Unfortunately, the scarab beetle has been feasting on the super sugary insides of a jelly donut for a full month, and its reflexes are now immeasurably faster than the fastest ninja. In an instant, the beetle's razor sharp mandibles flash, and searing pain instantly erupts in Fizzy's arm as the deadly venom courses into his bloodstream. He staggers backward a step, reeling from the unspeakable pain.
