Welcome back, everyone. Enjoy and review.

Eventually, the Death Bat did appear. High in the sky, the lights of the fair showing it to all who would look up did the Death Bat fly. For Basil and Venus it was a brief glimpse. With there being so many people, the Death Bat would not risk landing to attack Basil and Venus thus it merely flew on.
And yet that only begged one question. Had it even been aware they were at the fair? It couldn't have been. It did not bring its head downwards once to look at the ground far below. It merely kept its head forward as it flew on.
Venus released a sigh of relief as it the Death Bat passed. Basil however had a reason to remain properly fearful however. The fair would not be open all night. Eventually there would be less people and the Death Bat might fly this way again and land to cause trouble for the two of them.
What about when Basil would be taking Venus home? What was to stop the Death Bat from finding them on the way there?
Basil could only think one thing: "I don't like this." Still, he didn't let his fears show. He kept on a brave face. He knew that fears had a tendency to spread and didn't want Venus to become fearful too.
Still there was a question on Basil's mind. Would the Death Bat appear again that night and if so when?
