They were floating lifeless in the barren fog. Soon enough they awoke, confused and unknowing of the past night. Rick awoke with a high headache. "Hey Casey! Wake up." He shook Casey awake. Casey moaned as he awoke.
"No. NO! It shouldn't be this way!" said Casey "We should be at HOME with mom and dad! We should be having Eggs and bacon! We should be outside by the shore catching fish! IT SHOULDN'T BE THIS WAY!"
Casey was getting hysterical. Rick tried to calm him. "CASEY! Calm down. Calm down. If we use our heads we should be able to get back home."
"You gotta plan?"
"Sure!"
"Okay"
Rick looked around. "HELP! SOMEONE HELP US! HELP!"
"That's your plan Genius?"
"Well.what do you expect?" Suddenly, there was a long splash from the water beyond them. "What was that?"
"I don't know. Let's find out."
"How?"
Casey started ripping a piece of thin wood from the floating debris they floated on. "What the Hell are you doing Casey?" asked Rick.
"A Paddle."
".Okay."
"You made your own harpoon. So I make my own propeller." Only then, Rick remembered the wood, the ship, and the explosion.the monster. `
"My god." Said Rick. "CASEY STOP! We can't go forward. It might be the monster! Don't!
"If it was the monster why didn't it eat us last night adrift. It had every opportunity to!"
"Well we wouldn't be in this mess if you weren't navigating dad's boat!"
"It was YOUR idea to take it for a spin. I hope we never go back!"
"Why.you.I'LL KILL YOU, YOU SELFLESS BASTARD!" Rick slammed Casey in the jaw sending him back ward. Casey jolted back with a strike. Rick grabbed Casey by the neck cutting off his breathing. The anger was in his eyes.then the confusion.
"What." he slowly let go of Casey's neck. "What am I doing? This isn't me. I've gone insane." Just before he could say anything more, there was a faint humming in the distance. It seemed like a moaning ringing. It was unlike anything the brothers heard. As they slowly moved, an image slowly emerged from the fog.
"What is that thing Rick?"
"I don't know."
The image was in full view now. Rick knew what it was first hand. "I think it's the monster." It semeed so different in the light. Instead of 2 glowing yellow eyes, it had faint reflective glass eyes. It had a strange horn that came from its head and curved down beneath the sea with the rest of its body. It grew spikes down from the top. It seemed like a reptile. A reptile made of steel.
"That's not a monster Rick."
"What is then?"
"I think it's a boat of some sort."
"Well as long as its not some monster, lets see if we can board it."
