Chapter 3: The Krakken
[Lakeside]
A bright moon lights up the foggy forest below. A large lake is surrounded by trees and mist, undisturbed.
"Cannonball!" Achilles said, jumping into the lake, making a large splash. Achilles pops back up to the surface.
"Woo-hoo!" Tyrone yelled, jumping in after him.
"Yee-haw!" Fae came in after the two boys.
"Haha!" Leni launches herself in as the last person.
Victor came up to the lake in pajamas looking at the quartet. Sitting down at the edge of the dock.
"Come on and join us Vic." Leni invited.
"Nah, I'm good here." Victor answered.
"What's the point of camping by the lake if you don't go for a swim." Achilles said, diving under the water.
The four in the water begin to swim around enjoying themselves. None noticed as bubbles began to form in the water. The giant silhouette of a monster appears behind them, Victor seeing it is frozen with fear as he points towards it.
"Hey Vic, you alright." Tyrone asked, taking notice of their frozen friend. Everyone looked towards Victor before looking to where he was pointing, seeing the monster. Tendrils from the figure shoots out and grabs up the kids, launching them away. The kids pop back out from the water and look around for the monster.
"Leni, looks like it's…" Tyrone began to say before Leni gets pulled underwater via a tentacle latching on to her.
The kids dive down to see Leni getting dragged deeper into the lake. While under the water they are able to get a look at the creature's giant eye. Leni's eyes bug out and she tries to wriggle free. The other three, going in to help. Once they got her free of the tentacle, they surfaced.
"Are you guys okay?" Victor asked.
"Yeah. No. We don't know." Leni said, as they all got back on land and ran into the Rust Bucket.
As the quintet bursts into the Rust Bucket, waking up Grandpa Max as he looks at them.
"Uh, what's with all the racket, weren't you kids going to play in the lake for a bit before we go fishing tomorrow?" Grandpa Max asked, drowsy.
"We were but then there was this thing in the lake that attacked us." Tyrone said.
"Are you sure?" Max asked.
"Are we sure we got attacked? Yes!" Achilles asked then said.
"Come on Grandpa Max, we'll show you." Leni said
"Alright, let me see." Grandpa Max said, getting up to investigate.
Outside by the lake was the group looking at the water. Grandpa Max used his flashlight to shine a light at the water, not seeing hide nor hair of the monster.
'Well sorry kiddos but I don't see anything. It's late, how about we all go get some sleep. You might just be tired." Max said ushering the kids back into the RV.
That next morning found the group up bright and early, ready for the day. The kids were rubbing sleep out of their eyes, as Max stood there dressed in a bucket hat and fishermen's' vest with a fishing rod at his side.
"Come on and get ready, we're wasting daylight. The earlier you are, the better the spot you can get." Max told the kids as he grabbed a tackle box and walked out of the Rust Bucket.
"Okay rock, paper, scissors to see who has to spend the day fishing and risk seeing that monster again." Leni said, holding out her fist to the group.
"In." The rest said as they all held out their fists as well.
"Rock." Achilles started.
"Paper." Victor continued.
"Scissors." Tyrone went next.
"Says Shoot." Fae ended.
All the kids through out their fist in their choice. Tyrone and Victor threw paper, Fae and Leni with Scissors, and Achilles had rock.
"Alright so Ty and Vic, have fun fishing." Leni said.
"Wait what? Not fair." Tyrone said.
"You both have two losses and only one win. I think it's plenty fair." Leni explained.
"Ugh. Come on Vic." Tyrone said, walking to the back to get changed and join Max outside, Victor trailed behind him.
Tyrone and Victor walked out of the Rust Bucket joining Max.
"Where are the rest?" Max asked.
"They uh…they were pretty tired and decided they'd sleep in." Tyrone answered, scratching the back of his head.
"Well that just means more fun for us." Max said, leading the duo to the boats.
Lined up among the pier are various boats, Max leads the two to the one he chartered for the day, it being helmed by a gruff and impatient looking man.
"Captain Shaw?" Max asked as they came up to the boat.
"Who wants to know?" Captain Shaw asked, looking at the trio of males.
"I'm Max Tennyson, and these are my wards Tyrone, and Victor." The two boys wave at Shaw. "We chartered your boat today for a fishing trip." Max explained.
"Well what're you waiting for, an engraved invitation? Get aboard, I ain't got all day." Shaw motioned for them to climb aboard as he got the ship ready to depart.
Tyrone and Victor reluctantly climb aboard. Max looks to the ship concerned before joining the rest. The ship sets off and sails down the lake. The ship traveled the water slowly, Max looked to Shaw, getting his fishing rod together. Victor and Tyrone were looking over the edge of the ship to look into the water, watching out for the lake monster they saw last night.
"Anything…interesting out there to catch today?" Max asked.
"More than you can imagine." Shaw answered. "What's up with the lads?"
"Boys, you feeling alright?" Max looked towards the two.
"Oh yeah don't worry about us." Tyrone waved off.
"Just on the lookout for lake monsters." Victor piped up.
At that moment a shadowy silhouette, looking similar to the monster from the previous night, comes passing by.
"Oh no! Oh no! Oh no! Someone call Leni!" Victor said, cowering away and preparing to be eaten.
"Wait. Vic. No, it's just brambles and rubbish." Tyrone said as the silhouette becomes more clear and shows to be just that.
"My bad." Victor said leaving his cowering position.
"Now listen here you two. This is a fishing trip, there won't be any monster business." Max said.
"It's called 'The Krakken'." Shaw chimed in randomly.
"Whoa. Whoa, whoa, whoa. Whoa. What you talkin bout Shaw?" Tyrone asked.
"I'm talking about how I've been on its tail for years. Folks say my rudder's not right." Shaw said, handing the boys a photo depicting the shadow of The Kraken.
"Why am I not surprised?" Max said sarcastically.
"Sightings go back hundreds of years, on this very lake." Shaw began.
"So you've been around hundreds of years?" Victor interrupted, Shaw gave him a look. "Sorry."
"Some say it's a myth…not me!" Shaw continued. "I could take you to a spot where I personally laid eyes upon the beast. That is, if you've got the stomach for some real adventure!"
The boys look at Max with wide pleading looks. Max sighs and pinches the bridge of his nose.
"Fine. I guess so." Max said, giving in.
"Yes!" Both the boys said, giving each other a high five.
Shaw set sail to the area he told the trio about. Shaw kept his eye on the sonar, while Max came up to the boys, bending down he spoke to them quietly.
"Boys, I don't want you putting much stock into the words of Shaw, he isn't exactly rowing with both oars if you catch my drift." Max said.
"Sonar, high-def video setup, ultrasound. I got it all. I will find it, mark my words, it can't hide forever." Shaw called from his position.
"Oh why is that Grandpa Max? Because he's seen The Krakken as well." Tyrone said bitterly and walked off to look at Captain Shaws' setup. Max watches him leave with a sad look, then looked to Victor.
"He's right, you know. We've already seen some crazy things and the summer has barely even started, who's to say this isn't real." Victor walked away as well to look at the water.
The ship floats by, Shaw at the helm, and teaching Tyrone about how the sonar worked. Soon the boat came up to a blockade made up of buoys and tape.
"Do not enter? What's going on?" Shaw read off the tape.
"Looks official, maybe we should turn back." Max came up.
"Nonsense, this is my lake and I'll go wherever I…" Shaw started.
"Fishing boat! Stop where you are." Came a distant voice, as a boat pulled up next to them. "I am Jonah Melville, the founder of 'Fish of Friends', we've closed this section of the lake for an environmental study. You'll have to turn your boat around."
"Sounds like a bunch of tartar sauce to me." Victor whispered to Tyrone, who nodded.
"Suppose you make me, fish-hugger?" Shaw asked with a confrontational tone.
"Well, since I chartered the boat for the day, I believe I'm in charge. Isn't that right Captain?" Max asked, causing Shaw to grumble and make his way up the boat.
The boat traveled back to the docks, trailing the 'Fish of Friends' boat. The ship's sonar pinged, alerting Shaw.
"The sonar! We got something boys!" Shaw exclaimed as a shark-like fin popped to the surface of the water.
"Or you know? Something found us." Victor said, seeing the fin.
"It's heading for the docks!' Shaw said in a panic as he walked out and saw the fin dip below the surface.
"Oh no!" Tyrone exclaimed.
The Krakken was rushing towards the docks at high speeds, unbeknownst to the occupants at the pier. Among them is Leni, Achilles, And Fae who were playing ultimate frisbee at the moment. Captain Shaw rang the ship's bell in an attempt to warn the dock-goers.
"Uh Leni, I think it's hero time." Achilles said, looking towards the lake.
"Gotcha, time to go Pow-pow" Leni said, running to the water and priming the omnitrix. There is a green flash as she jumps into the water.
The Krakken rears out of the water, slumping back down and crushing the pier to pieces, sending the people standing on it into the water. It dives heading for the civilians. A Pisciss Volann, Pow-pow, comes racing past The Krakken in the water and stops in front of it.
"Hey seafood, follow me." Pow-pow said, punching it in the face and swimming in the opposite direction, trying to give the people time to swim to shore.
Back with Jonah, he was watching the scene playout and looked to his crewmate, Duane.
"Get us out of here." Jonah ordered, as Duane began to sail away.
Pow-pow was currently leading The Krakken as far from the civilians as possible. When both break surface, The Krakken stops and takes notice of Jonah trying to flee and starts to go after him.
"That's right you Nessy wannabe, keep…" Pow-pow stops and looks to see The Krakken going after Jonah. "Hey! What? Am I not a good enough swim partner?" Pow-pow now proceeded to be the one to give chase.
The Krakken reached Jonah and began to rear up against the ship, rocking it. Pow-pow came up on it jumping on its head, she grabbed its front tendrils and pulled with all her might trying to steer it away. The Krakken tossed to and fro, trying to shake Pow-pow off; she was able to send it off in another direction before getting tossed into the water. The Krakken swims to the front of the boat and tries to grab a crate off of it using a tendril.
"Oh no you don't!" Jonah exclaimed, leaping up and grabbing hold of the crate in hopes to stop it from being taken.
Pow-pow launches out of the water at The Krakken, punching it in the face and then grabbing hold of the tendril once again pulling back. The Krakken drops the crate and both go back into the water. Pow-pow comes up and kicks The Krakken in the underjaw, causing it to real, roar , and retreat. Pow-pow breaks surface once more.
"Thanks for the hand, and the feet!" Jonah thanked Pow-pow.
"What's so important that you'd go and risk your life for it?" Pow-pow asked.
"Oh! Um…our lunch." Jonah answered.
"You almost got yourself killed…FOR A COUPLE OF SANDWICHES?!" Pow -pow yelled at the man.
As the two were discussing, The Krakken jumps out of the water and grabs the crate, bringing it back into the water before it can be stopped. Before Pow-pow could try and go after The Krakken, the timer began to start ticking red.
"Oh well would you look at that, I gotta go." Pow-pow said and dived under the water swimming away.
Later finds campers and dock-goers packing up and leaving as it gets dark. The group sits by a campfire, Leni drying off.
"So…" Victor began.
"Just because you all and Captain Shaw were right about The Krakken, doesn't mean I was wrong about him. I want all of you to stay away from him, he's trouble." Max said.
"You're just being difficult." Tyrone said, getting a look.
"We're gonna leave this to the experts, like those 'Friends of Fish' guys." Max said.
"Oh yeah 'cause they totally aren't suspicious whatsoever, just were willing to risk their life for their "lunch"." Tyrone said, voice dripping with sarcasm.
"Seriously, who better to handle a lake monster, than someone who can turn into ten different monsters." Fae said, motioning to Leni.
"Listen, I said none of you are going. So none of you are going." Max said with finality.
"Low-down, no good, fish-kissers." Shaw said, coming up to the group.
"What's wrong Captain Shaw?" Tyrone asked, giving Shaw a salute.
"The nerve of those 'enviro-punks'! They shut down the entire lake! Nobody tells me where to sail, and nobody's gonna keep me away from reeling in the catch of the century. Nobody!" Shaw ranted, walking off. Tyrone gave Leni a look.
A few hours later the Rust Bucket is sitting near the pier, Victor gives a knock on the bathroom door.
"Hey, Leni? Save some hot water for the rest of us." Victor said.
Grandpa Max comes up to the bathroom, knocking before opening it, finding the bathroom empty.
"Where's Leni? Wait! Where 's Tyrone?!" Max asked no one in particular.
[Lake]
Captain Shaw was currently sailing the boat out on the lake, he heard a clattering behind him from under a tarp. Shaw goes to investigate it, uncovering the tarp.
"No stowaways on my boat, even if you are only a filthy rat!" Shaw said, as the tarp fully removed, revealing Tyrone and Leni hiding under it.
"First mate Tyrone, and cabin girl Leni, reporting for duty Captain!" Tyrone got up saluting Shaw and motioning for Leni to do it as well.
The boat was now sailing with three occupants manning it. Shaw looked to his two stowaways.
"She's probably been chased deep by our 'fishy-friends'. Only one way to flush her out…with a little live bait." Shaw said getting into a wetsuit.
"Permission to join you on this excursion Captain?" Tyrone asked Shaw.
"No need, I got my dive buddy right here." Shaw said, picking up a harpoon gun. "Wish me luck."
Captain Shaw dived into the lake, wading his way towards The Krakken's nest. Back up on the boat Tyrone and Leni monitor the boat. Leni holds up another wetsuit in Tyrones' size.
"Come on, you wanted to join him." Leni said.
"He said no, and the Captain's orders are final, otherwise that'd be mutiny." Tyrone said.
"Ugh, I agreed to come with you cause you said I'd get to bust some lake monster butt, but this is so boring." Leni said. After a beat Leni looked at Tyrone after not receiving a response to see him looking at the horizon. "What's up bro?"
"Water. Now." Tyrone said, pushing Leni overboard and following in after her.
Back below Shaw discovers it to be full of eggs and returns to the surface, finding another boat alongside his. Climbing aboard he is grabbed by a masked figure.
"Don't you know night diving is dangerous, old timer? Unless of course, you went with a friend." The masked figure said.
"I work alone. I ain't got friends." Shaw said protecting the kids.
"...and with a sparkling personality like yours?" The masked figure said sarcastically.
Leni and Tyrone pop up spectating the entire altercation.
"I haven't anything worth stealing either." Shaw said.
"Ah, but you have us all wrong. All we want is information. Like, what did you see down there?" The masked man asked.
"Nothin'. Sam as always." Shaw answered.
The masked man punched Shaw to the ground, knocking him out. He takes off the mask revealing himself to be Jonah Melville.
"Well, I have to be sure." Jonah said.
"Victor and I called it." Tyrone whispered to Leni, who was fiddling with the Omnitrix, to see if she could transform. No dice however as the watch was still timed out.
"Well, we'll be sans a hero for a while." Leni said.
"Take 'Ahab' here with us. Find out if he knows anything back at the Cannery. We'll come back later with a mini-sub to snatch the rest of the eggs." Jonah said, throwing a tracker into the lake. "In the meantime, I think his boat just got lost at sea." He proceeded to prime explosives.
Jonah throws the explosives over onto Shaw's boat and sails off, the boat exploding behind them. The debris fell towards the twins, causing them to have to dive and dodge. Resurfacing, Leni primed the Omnitrix and looked through her selection landing on the silhouette of Insecta.
"It's hero time." Leni said, pushing down the faceplate.
The 'Friends of Fish' was sailing in the lake heading back to the Cannery, when Duane pointed at something he saw in the sky.
"Is that a bird?" Duane asked.
"Nah, looks like a plane." The rest of the crew said.
"It's a bug! Man the harpoons!" Jonah commanded, as he saw it was Insecta with Tyrone on her back.
"Give it up, you can't win." Insecta taunted.
Jonah's crew fired lasers at Insecta, with her dodging it, Tyrone holding on for dear life. She then fired slime in return, immobilizing them. Jonah unloads explosive barrels from the inside of the ship, some almost hitting Insecta, blasting a tree, knocking her and Tyrone out of the sky into the water below.
"Darn it, my wings are too wet to fly," Insecta said.
"Let's squish the bug, once and for all." Jonah said, driving the ship towards them.
The twins swim out of the way as the ship comes barreling towards them, reaching onto a piece of driftwood.
"Any progress with being fly ready?" Tyrone asked, Insecta shook her head.
"Come on. Come on." Insecta said, flapping her wings, to dry them faster.
One of Jonah's crew stands with a turret, firing towards them. Curious, the two look around for a means to escape. Tyrone sees a branch and directs Insectas' attention to it. She shoots a streak of goo at the branch, hitting it. Tyrone grabs onto her as the ship comes around about to hit them, she slurps up the goo, sending them soaring up to safety. The ship barrels past smashing the driftwood they were just on to pieces.
Jonah stood on the ship as it circled, flashing his spotlight looking for the duo unable to locate them. The twins were perched on the branch looking down at the lake, spotting a fin in the water.
"It's getting too crowded around here." Jonah said, shining his light on the unconscious Shaw. "Toss 'em."
The crew throws Captain Shaw overboard as Jonah and the crew boat away. Insecta comes down from her branch with Tyrone once again on her back. She hovers over the water and picks up Shaw before he could sink, flying towards land and the Rust Bucket. As usual at that moment the Omnitrix began to beep.
On the shore Max, and the rest of the kids are looking for the trio, when they heard the sound of Leni de-transforming, they looked up to find the three falling out of the sky. Achilles and Fae quickly unfurl the sun shade, allowing for the three to land safely.
Inside the RV, Tyrone was explaining the situation while typing on his laptop.
"...Then Jonah tossed Shaw into the ocean and was gonna leave him there to sink, maybe even get eaten. I don't know what it is but The Krakken definitely has it out for him based on what I've seen." Tyrone finished explaining, as he continued typing. A smile lit up on his face.
"Haha! I got you Melville. Man, I'm good." Tyrone turned his laptop around to face the rest. " So apparently Mr. 'Friends of Fish' travels around the world poaching rare animals, then crates them up, and sells them to private collectors. His organization isn't even listed anywhere as an environmental organization."
"Crates them up? THE LUNCH! It probably had something important to The Krakken in there, that's why she took it and why Jonah risked his life for it." Leni said.
"Considering they are gonna come back for it, and how hard The Krakken was fighting, I'd bet on it being her eggs." Tyrone said.
"You'd be right boy, saw it with my own two eyes." Shaw confirmed.
"I ah…I guess I owe you an apology." Max said to Tyrone.
"Thanks Grandpa Max, but no need right now, we have babies to rescue." Tyrone said ready for action. "They mentioned a Cannery."
"All this talk don't change a thing; mother or not, that beast is mine. I've got a spare boat at the docks, let's go first mate." Shaw said, causing all present to exchange glances.
"Yes Captain." Tyrone saluted.
Outside at the dock, Shaw unties the boat, getting ready to get on.
"Hey Captain Shaw what's this for?" Fae asked, holding up a harpoon with Achilles.
"It's a harpoon Lass!" Shaw said, grabbing it out of her hand.
Shaw turned back around to board but before he could the boat sped off without him. On board Max, Victor, Tyrone, Leni.
"What're you doing? Get back here!" Shaw exclaimed.
"I'm sorry for this insurrection Captain!" Tyrone called back, tears in his eyes.
"You don't know what you're doing! A monster's a monster, and I know a monster when I see one!" Shaw warned.
The sped off, leaving Shaw at the dock clenching his fists in anger. He shines a lamp around, seeing a much less glamorous rowboat off to the side of the pier, he glares at it. A crane pulls up a submarine suit holding an egg out of the water, setting the submarine down on the dock.
[Cannery]
Underwater, a clamp attaches to Melville's submarine pod, Krakken egg in tow, pulling him out of the water by a crane mechanism. It lowers him onto the Cannery dock, as he passes the egg to one of his crewmates.
"Careful or you'll be cleaning up the world's most expensive omelet." Jonah threatened.
The crewmate dumps the egg in a cylindrical glass container with another, before closing the lid. Jonah cradles the eggs through the container.
"After we sell these babies to the highest bidder, we'll be kicking back on a beach in the Bahamas." Jonah explained.
On the water, Leni, Max, Tyrone, and Victor arrive at a ladder entrance of the Cannery. Max, Victor, and Tyrone began to climb.
"Let's see if we can't poach a poacher." Tyrone said, rubbing his hands maliciously.
"Calm down there sport." Max said.
"What are you gonna do Leni?" Victor asked.
"I'm gonna go fishing Friends of Fish." Leni said.
Leni primes the Omnitrix and selects Pow-pow. She transforms; letting out a roar, The Krakken shoots out of the water, knocking her boat aside, and going up through the Cannery dock flooring.
"The bigger The Krakken, the bigger the payday." Jonah said, now face to face with The Krakken.
Jonah runs to his submarine pod, as his crewmate opens fire on The Krakken. One guard runs off inside the building, while the other stays, firing shots that bounce off The Krakkens' skin. The Krakken slaps aside the gunner, trying to get to the eggs, but Jonah snatches the eggs through the crane operated sub before they can be reached. Opening fire, only stopping to reposition himself. Pow-pow leaps out the lake and onto the window of Jonah's machine, encompassing his view.
"Why don't you pick on someone your own size." Pow-pow taunted.
Pow-pow climbed down to the grapple holding the eggs, causing Jonah to move to fire point blank, but Pow-pow responded by biting the gunner arm off. The eggs get dropped and Pow-pow dived after them catching them mid air. Jonah took that moment to punch her, causing the eggs to hit the floor and break out of their containers, and land on the dock below.
Inside the Cannery, Max, Tyrone, and Victor were sneaking around, coming to a corner with a FoF member on the other side. Max pauses, communicating to the two young boys through hand signals.
"This isn't the time for gang signs Grandpa Max." Tyrone said with Victor nodding along, causing Max to facepalm.
Below the Cannery, one of the men who had opened fire at The Krakken, swam back to the Cannery, and climbed up the ladder. At the top of it, is Max, and the boys. Max punches his lights out, knocking him back into the water. As they continue forward the side wall is broken by The Krakens fin. The boys look up at Max worried.
"Go high." Max said, jumping onto one of the Cannery hooks and gliding along.
"Woah." Tyrone and Victor said, following Maxs' example.
Another one of the FoF men shows up from around the corner and gets knocked down by Max, who kicks him as he jumps off the hook. Tyrone and Victor jump on to the man bringing him down to the ground, knocking him out.
Outside; Jonah and The Krakken both dived for the eggs, The Krakken scooping them up first. Jonah dived for The Krakken, only to get side checked by Pow-pow. Pow-pow then dives into the water with the eggs, Jonah detaches himself, falling directly onto her as they both go under. Jonah begins to hail a flurry of blows on Pow-pow.
"Rescuing babies? Very heroic, but not very smart." Jonah said.
Jonah steals the eggs while Pow-pow is disoriented, getting back to her senses, she shoots towards the fleeing Jonah. The two get into a melee; Pow-pow latching onto the suit, and Jonah punching her away. Pow-pow pryes the eggs from Jonah and rests them in her mouth while fighting the poacher off. The Krakken proceeds to knock Pow-pow aside, swimming off, causing Pow-pow and Jonah to race to it. Jonah releases a sonic attack, causing The Krakken to reel and allow him to scoop the eggs. Pow-pow comes in smacking him to the ground, Jonah retaliates by grabbing her throat and pinning her. Pow-pow struggles to break free and reaches for a nearby anchor, hitting Jonah with it, and going to bite him, only to be thrown off. Jonah flees again, eggs in hand as Pow-pow looks to the chain of the anchor and gets an idea. She twirls the chain, sending it flying at Jonah, wrapping him up and causing him to drop the eggs for her to scoop up and swim away, The Krakken giving chase.
Pow-pow swims to an open area on the seafloor, while still being chased. SHe sets down the eggs in front of The Krakken, allowing for it to take the eggs back. Jonah speeds towards them, eye set on reclaiming the eggs, but gets grabbed up by The Krakken's tendril, which proceeds to crush his submarine. He quickly escapes and pulls out a knife to stab The Krakken with, only to be restrained by Pow-pow who wrestles it from his hand and breaks it in two. Jonah pauses, stuck between two monsters, The Krakken gives a roar and goes to eat him but Pow-pow gets in the way. The Krakken nods in understanding and swims away with the eggs, Pow-pow then punches Jonah in the face knocking him out.
Back on the Surface, Pow-pow, with the help of Max and the boys has tied up Jonah and his men, having them hang from a hook. As police sirens can be heard in the distance Pow-pow jumps into the water, as to not be seen. The police boat nears the group, spot light shining on the goons.
"Haha! I've got one." Shaws' voice is heard as he, Achilles and Fae, can be seen coming up in the rowboat. Achilles and Fae being the rowers.
"We tried to stop him." Achilles told them.
"He did, the Captain said I could hold the harpoon if I helped row." Fae said.
Captain Shaw has them row up to the lakeside, in his hands a net containing Pow-pow and some seaweed.
"I finally got me a Krakken! One of the eggs must've hatched. Imagine this trophy mounted on my wall." Shaw said as a flash of red goes off.
"Might want to relook at that one Shaw, the 'catch of the day' may not be as advertised." Max said.
Shaw holds a lamp up to the net, as Leni is now sitting there with a smile on her face.
"Ahoy, Captain." Leni said.
"What but I could've sworn." Shaw said, confused.
"Captain! I apologize for my disrespect and the mutiny, please allow me to serve on your ship once again sometime in the future." Tyrone said hands behind his back and looking up.
"At ease First mate, you are always welcome aboard my boat." Shaw said.
Out in the distance The Krakken howls, sitting cuddled up with its eggs on the seafloor.
