Chapter 2

We stare at the place where the thing stood. Mouths open eyes wide. 

“What was that?” I say. But Dylan backs away. And I see why. The thing is back. It’s red eyes glowing in the sea mist. We run for it. We can hear it chasing us. Rain starts to pound the sand. Then a bolt of lightning strikes the ground not to far away. When I listen closely I hear webbed feet? Then an idea lands in my head. The Frogamander! I look behind us but that was a mistake as I can see the red eyes only a few feet away. We climb the stairs leading of the beach. We bend over panting. “I think we lost it.” I say. But then I see something striding towards us. We run to the book shop. When we get there we pound on the door. Locked. The thing has us corned! As it’s about to step under the moonlight there’s a click. And the door opens. The thing leaps over the sea wall and is engulfed by the black water. 

Miss Blobfish or Blob for short locks the door as we scramble in. And then she unloads it on us. “What the heck are you doing at 4 in the morning, and don’t look at my face!” Says Miss Blobfish angrily! It’s hard not to look as, well she looks like a blobfish. We thank her for letting us in and we go to my flat. But Dylan has other ideas and he heads to the beach. I catch up with him and asks where he’s going. “To the beach.” Replied Dylan.

“We can go in the morning.” I say back.  

“It won’t be out in the morning besides if that was the Frogamander we have to get a closer look.”Says Dylan. After a heated argument I decide to go to the beach. So we set off down the stairs and onto the beach. We then set of in the direction of the pier where the Frogamander lurks. “Are you sure about this Dylan.” I say nervously.

“100% positive.” Says Dylan.
