The Peculiar Baby

            
             One night Pat was walking his dog Snoop in a park.
             He saw a large light out in the bushes and decided to go check out what it was.
             Pat kept on walking and walking feeling like he wasn't getting any closer at all.
             He thought it was probably a person so he turned around to walk back, but to his surprise their was a baby girl right in front of him.
             He felt that the right thing to do was take her to the police station.
             When he got to the police station the he put the baby on the floor when he bent down to get her she was gone no trace. Pat got a long lecture from the police officer. Pat was very worried he had wondered where the baby had gone off to. When he got back to his apartment he saw the baby girl sitting there on his couch. He thought this was very weird but shrugged it off and didn't think about it again. He comforted the baby and thought that he could take care of it for one night until he could take her to another police station in the morning. When he woke up he had noticed something very strange about the baby girl. She had grown a third eye. This one he could not shrug off this was really weird. He thought to himself he might be able to make some money off of this kid before he gave her into the police. He kept her for two weeks and became very attached her. Over these two weeks she became more and more different she grew a few more arms and legs. He thought the weirdest thing was when they all turned into tentacles. He had the baby looked at by a doctor and he wanted to keep the baby and was willing to pay one million dollars for her. Pat thought for about two seconds before he blurted out the answer NO! The doctor kept raising the price but Pat wouldn't sell the child she was like his own she and he had become very attached. The next week he had noticed that the baby had turned a pale green colour he also found this to be quite peculiar. He thought that maybe she was sick but than decided maybe it was another part of her changing.
