A week later we are in my little room.We sit gazing at the stars eating marshmallows my favourite.Outside was full of strange mist nearly taking up the town.Inside we are warm and comfortable.However Amanda thinks differently.’Come on Ronald,you got to help me…I think I know where it lives.’

To my surprise Amanda has been going out for the past week to the pier to look for this creature.She claims to have seen unusual footprints in the sand just like the ones at the alley but at the pier.

I lock up the hotel for the night making sure all the windows and doors are shut and locked.This time I make sure we have all our supplies,flashlights and protection.The mist starts to devour our town once again.We run the the pier and there is a locked gate in the way to get under the pier.For Amanda that just makes her want to go even more further.I can’t leave her alone..she’s to stubborn and and bone-headed but yet I find myself following her.Slowly and quietly making our way over the gate.

As soon as we got over the gate there was a hole,not too big but not too small just big enough to fit a baby animal in.Amanda slowly approached the hole and froze’…what’s wrong..?’ I mumble.She turned and stared at me.’The Catamander’ she struggled to get out. 

Under the pier is dark.It smells dank and mold everywhere.Something crawls out the hole.I jump with fear.I-it was the Catamanders baby… Amanda quickly scutters away.We stare and realise the Catamander has a child…

At that moment my heart has skipped several beats.Quickly, I run the jump back over the gate but a growl and hiss comes from behind it.Me and Amanda are trapped…
