As they swam through the water with great speed they could hear the churnings of the water…Something was beneath them. There muscles tightened as their legs pushed through the water. They could soon feel the sand rising up from there feet. But the presence of the creature was still there. They were so close to the shore, but yet so far. Perplex could feel splashes of something behind her. She turned around curious…but her curiosity turned into fear as she saw a fin the size of a mountain slice through the water.
“Don’t look back! Don’t look back,” Quad bit Perplexs’ ear and yanked her heavily along. She tugged her ear out of his mouth and swam full force. There feet soon felt the hard sand between there hooves. They threw themselves out of the water as fast as a swallow. But, one splash remained.
Quad looked up, legs spreaded out from the long jump. He arose to his legs with a look of terror. Jen deer was still in the water. “Swim Jen deer! Swim before your very soul is torn out of you!”
Soon the rest where chanting telling him to not give up. Telling him that his life could end at the jaws of a beast the size of the great oak! Jen deers’ feet dragged tiredly to the shore. But it was not over. The beast was still headed full force and with great tenacity. The beast bashed right into the deer, it’s huge skull was shaped like an arrow, it’s eyes where huge and all black. It had teeth the size of fawn. Yes, the Megalodon is what we like to call today…a huge shark.
Wind howler fell to the ground, sand poured from the sky like snow, and it was unclear what had happened. Wind howler could hear the Megalodon shimmy its way back into the water. As the sand began to settle, he could see the figure of most of his friends. But he automatically knew…Jen deer was missing.
