Welcome back everyone. Enjoy and review.
Dive!
Lee dived from the roof into the river below. He had escaped the Hoplite but now he had to find out about who this double of his was.
Still, he had to swim to safety first. So swim he did.
If only he had a safe swim. If only he had not gone from the Hoplite to something much worse.
At first he saw a Hydrus swimming towards him. It was a mongoose-like creature a foot in length and four inches high. It swam right past him and then Lee saw something that was indeed much worse than a little hydrus.
It was a Bunyip! What was a Bunyip doing in Canada? What had a hydrus been doing in Canada when the creatures were native to Egypt?
The Bunyip was eight feet long and two and a half feet wide. It was a marsupial with a horse-like tail, flippers and walrus-like tusks. It was quite a vicious beast and its bloodthirsty eyes were on Lee!
Charging at Lee, the Bunyip opened its jaws forcing to Lee to grab said jaws to keep the tusks from his throat.
Lee had a dagger but he was unable to get to it! If he could he'd be able to finish this quickly! Yet if he were to move for his dagger those tusks would be in his throat.
But here they both were at the surface! Their heads were both above the water! Lee would just have to force the Bunyip's head beneath the water!
That however was easier said than done! The Bunyip's neck muscles were immensely strong! It was darn near impossible to force the monster's head beneath the water!
Eventually, Lee succeeded! Feeling the water rush down its throat and into its lungs, the Bunyip was forced to retreat.
Now free from his attacker, Lee continued his swim and reached the opposite bank. From that side, Lee could hear the Hoplite yelling at him.
"You may have survived that monster, Lee, but you will never escape me and thus never survive me!"
That remained to be seen. But now Lee had some research to do at the headquarters of the CSIS!
