We sit in my room waiting silently until I break the silence and ask ” what did you see” before she could answer I could hear the wind picking up . A storm is brewing. I already knew what she was about to say. I knew it. She saw the sunamander.

At least an hour later it was getting very late, we were tracing Sunnys footsteps. I knew it I should have stayed home in my bed eating my dinner with the tv on. All I will say about sunny is that she is very bossy and mean and a little bit sarcastic. The sea was surging up the beach and the wind was blowing us about and almost swept us off our  feet and there was lightning storming up.

We pass the chippie close into the town and then the rainbows ice cream parlour. They were all bordered up because of the storm. Only a few cars passed by and going home.

Sunny tugs me and points to the pier. All we could see was big claw marks and footsteps that looked very creepy. The sea was almost up the pier. Together we trace the footsteps as we get drenched in rain. Then we hear something or someone howl. It was coming from the old arcade. We stumble across the arcade without even thinking.

Silently, sunny takes small footsteps towards the door. but I stay behind, watching her walk in, shaking but not from the cold. I can just make out something moving behind one of the game machines. It had sharp claws on its back. It was slowly pacing towards sunny.

Outside, the storm tears the night. But inside a sudden lightning illuminates the arcade then the sunamander jumped over the arcade game jumped through the broken glass window and pounced to the pier then turns backs to us and growls and all you could smell was rotten fish all over the town and then the sunamander jumps into the water with a big splash.
