Authors note: So sorry for not updating sooner, life got in the way, so here is the next chapter, now I understand that what I see in my head for the monster even with a good description isn't always what the reader imagines so I found a picture which comes close to what I see in my head. (www. draconika. com/ img /blue Dragon ) make sure you minus the spaces. This way you see what I see.

Summary: John is back from Antarctica set after movie 2; things have changed between him and Abe, but is this a good or a bad thing.

Warning: Swearing and male/male romance,

Disclaimers: I only own this plot not the characters wish I did through.

************************************************************************

Saphira led John and the others down a narrow corridor into the centre of the large building, from the corridor they proceeded to walk down several hundred stairs to a basement like level. Located in the center of the lower level was a large pool.

"That pool in the center of the room is a direct link to the ocean outside through the ice shelf" Saphira explained she moved slight to the side and the brushed her hand against John's. Abe saw nothing but red wanting nothing more than to walk over push the woman way from John, from the corner of his eye he spotted Liz watching him a knowing smirk crossing her features.

Saphira stopped abruptly and Abe's head snapped forward when he heard John gasp, before them was a ship; and submarine to be exact and from what Abe could tell it was in dire need of a patch up job. The entire left side of the submarine looked as through is had been in a fight with a lawn mower and lost, it had been ripped apart. Large gaping holes covered the sides and one of the fins's looked as through it was nearly ripped off.

"What the hell happened here" Hellboy said breaking the silence which had fallen over them.

"This… this is the reason you are here" Saphira said turning and addressing Hellboy and the others for the first time.

"Whatever did this to our submarine is also attacking people all over the Antarctica" Saphira continued glancing back up at the ship. "We pulled 15 of our men and women from that ship, 15 brave men and women who will never get a chance to go home…. to see their loved ones."

Abe felt his stomach drop at the thought of never being able to see John again if something like this happened to him.

"When did this start?" John questioned looking curious

"About a week after you left to go home" Saphira said turning her attention to John.

"Their was a loud crash and it seamed to be coming from underneath us like something was trying to get through the metal floors, Michael, Sam and Brian went down in the smaller sub to see what was going on…..we kept up a continuous radio link with them…the last message was that their was a monster…and then nothing…we never saw them again" Saphira let her eyes drop to the floor

"Oh shit" John muttered raising his hand to cover his face. "Did you tell their families, and Sam's children, oh and Brian's fiancé"

"Yeah we told them, wasn't easy"

"So what the creature look like" Hellboy interrupted not liking being kept out of the loop

"From the descriptions we got from the survivors the creature is large, serpent like with lots of teeth" Saphira answered looking perplexed at being interrupted.

"Well the best thing we can do is go down and have a look at the creature, know what we are up against" John interrupted before Hellboy could speak again.

"Do you have another submarine?" Liz asked looking around the room

"Yeah we do another small one" Saphira answered

************************************************************************^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Once the smaller submarine had been loaded into the pool Hellboy, Liz and Abe all boarded, Abe turned back and spotted John who was staring at the water almost like he was expecting something to come out and eat him.

Saphira chuckled "Their haven't been any Orca's since the monster turned up"

John seamed to relax and he boarded the submarine, he turned to Abe who was watching him a gave a small smile

"I'll tell you later" he whispered, Abe nodded and proceeded to climb down into the bowels of the sub with John close behind him.

The group spent the next hour submerged in the water looking around for any sign that the creature was around. Groaning in pure boredom Hellboy decided to speak up

"All I see out there are fish, fish and more fish, nothing but stupid fish…no offence blue"

"None taken" Abe replied

"Maybe it's somewhere else today" Liz asked looking hopeful. Not a second later the Submarine was hit from behind and they were all thrown forward.

"Or not" John said picking himself up of the ground and turning to help Abe. Once Abe was on his feet the two men ran over to one of the portholes and looked out

"Can you see anything?" John muttered

"Yeah I can, over their by the ice shelf" Abe replied

"Really where? Your eyes are better than mine" John said trying to follow Abe's line of sight. After a couple of minutes John was finally able to make out a large shape which was moving back towards them.

"Check out the size of it" Liz whispered having walked over to join them, Hellboy at her heals. The creature turned to give the people in the Submarine a good look at it.

From what they could tell the creature was indeed big, serpent like with lots of teeth. John estimated what the creature was properly as long as a Soccer field; it resembled a serpent, with large spikes covering most of its body and the top of its head. Its head was huge and John guess that its teeth were properly as long as he was, much like a snake the two front fangs were twice the length as any of the others. A long snake like tongue protruded from its mouth and the creature let out a loud hissing noise. Waving its large powerful fins the creature changed its course so that it was moving towards the submarine.

"Oh Crap" Hellboy stated and John didn't think he could have put it any better as the creature picked up speed and opened its jaws.
