Welcome back everyone. Enjoy and review.
The Creature at the Window
As Basil and Venus had been speaking a pair of eyes had been watching them through the window. It was relatively unnoticed until Basil went to change into his swim trunks and Venus turned and saw it looking through the window at her.
It was a beast about eight feet tall but with a nimble body. It had black hair and was standing upright. The face was flat and gorilla-like.
"Basil!" Venus cried in alarm. The moment she cried out, the creature jumped away. Venus ran to the window and saw it having landed on its feet on the ground below. Since Basil and Venus' room was on the second floor, it hadn't been that much of a jump.
"What?" asked Basil, coming out of the bathroom wearing his red trunks.
Venus turned to look at her beau. "There was something outside the window!"
"What do you mean? Like a bird?" asked Basil.
"No, it was an ape… Or maybe it some prehistoric human… It was an ape-man!"
"What, you mean like Tarzan?" asked Basil.
"No!"
"A Neanderthal?"
"No!"
"Some sort of thing like that creature from Tibet?"
"Yes!"
"Oh damn!" exclaimed Basil, flopping down onto the bed like someone who skipped a letter in the alphabet. "This is just the sort of thing that will bring the agency down on this place! Lee and the rest are probably on their way here right now!"
