Alright people. Another suggestion from bookworm (thanks!) so let's do this.
Toasty was once again on the run from the police and righteous adventurers. Luckily, he had been smart enough to plan ahead this time. The town he pillaged was on a coast, so he had a boat ready to go. He jumped into it, and it started to go forward.
The people left on shore were understandably angry, and threw rocks at him. Then an archer Toasty had mugged aimed his bow. One single arrow flew, but the soggy sea air pulled the arrow down into the boat instead of Toasty's skull.
Toasty laughed at them, and sat contently in his boat. Then he noticed a damp spot on his back. Maybe the arrow did hit him, slightly.
He checked, and saw that the wetness wasn't thanks to blood, but water. Toasty scooped up water in his hands and threw it out, in a frantic attempt to save his vessel.
Eventually the water overwhelmed the small craft, and he sunk. The boat dragged Toasty down to the bottom of the lake, and that was where Toasty would have died.
If he hadn't planned ahead (he was getting better at this) and packed a bottle. It was full of air, which was what he needed. Sucking in the bottle's contents, or lack of, he had enough to make it to the surface if he hurried.
He kicked hard to start to swim upwards, and could start to see light when something wrapped around his leg. He tried shaking it off, and kicking at it. After all, it was probably just a plant.
There are no plants underwater, Toasty realized too late.
The tentacle pulled him further down, and Toasty came face to face with a very angry squid. It grabbed his legs in one tentacle, his arms in another, and jabbed him in the stomach with another.
Toasty let out precious air bubbles, and he panicked. He broke free of the tentacles, and kicked the squid as he swam his way up.
He could feel heat from the sun as he was inches from the surface. His finger broke through and he smirked.
A tentacle wrapped around his neck, pulling him down. Using all its tentacles, the squid rendered Toasty immobile. Squeezing Toasty's neck, his last bit of air went skywards.
It squeezed even harder, and Toasty heard a dull snap before everything went black.
The doctor noted the dead corpse on the beach. He addressed the angry crowd still nearby and ready to pummel Toasty.
"Toasty is dead, everyone. By the looks of it, he drowned. But not normally, since there are bruises on his extremities and neck. In fact, I think he was strangled underwater. A couple vertebrae are broken, and his lungs seem completely filled with water."
He cleared his throat. "Shame."
The doctor looked out at the lake, curious as to what really happened. But somehow, he knew.
So that was the end of Toasty for this chapter. Thanks for reading, hope you liked it!
