The enormus Lake was quite, too quite, we had stoped cause of Jasper's coment
"W... What do you mean with something else?" Alphonse asked
"I mean that those villages weren't throwing the corpses to dispose of them... but to feed something"
"Shall we better turn around?" Helga asked, we had just advanced some meters
"Yes, we better return and find another way to cross the river" I said
We started to turn the boat with the rows and sudenly a sound was heared, like a whale, an enormus whale, the sound came from... the lake
"Did you hear that?" Helga asked
"Sounded like an animal" Jasper answered
"Are you kidding? If that's an animal, I can't imagine it's size!"
"Faster!" I comanded, we were rowing the fastest we could, the sound was heared again, closer and closer, in a moment I noticed that Karil was pale
"Karil? Are you allright?" She just pointed the water, when I checed it, I discovered an enormus shadow just below us, it was something like 12 meters,and worse, it was moving
"Stop, stop" I say in low voice, we all remained quietly, after some minutes the shadow dispeared and we can't hear the sound
"I think it's gone" Helga sayed with a nervous smile
Before anyone could answer, an explosion of water came from the lake at our right, from it, an gian shark, an enormus one, bigest that a gray whale apeared making a horrible roar, we were petrificed, we had never saw a Slave so big, this one was a colosus, after his horrble presentation it sumerege itself again
"My God!" Karil screamed
We started to row like hell, from the distance I could saw under the wather, this monster coming in direction to us, really really fast
"Is going to eat us alive!" Hekga screamed, I realise that the monster was going to hit us, that monster was not an idiot, he was trying to throw us out of the boat
"Hang on!" Was all that I coul comand
He past just below our boat with violence, it almost get overturned, I could fell how we were literally flying, thank to God the boat falled well, but Karil had just falled in the water
"Karil!!!" I screamed terrified when I saw her in the wather
"Help!!! Help me!!!" She was screaming, Karil couldn't swim, without thinking it twice, I jumped out of the boat to the wather and started to swim in direction to Karil
"Vivio!" My friends screamed, I reach Karil, but when I just toke her hand, the monster appear at the distance, it was aproaching fast, with his jaw open, showing his several razor sharp theets in direction to us
We both started to swim back to the boat, well, really I was pulling Karil, I sawHelga and Alphonse shooting, but the bullets don't even hurt the monster, Jasper was searching something in the boat
"Jasper, what are you doing?" I hear that Alphonse was asking
"This is a fisher's boat, there must been an arpoon her... I found it!" Jasper answered while taking out an arpoon and launching it against the monster, the arpoon get impaled into the creature, who makes a horrible sound and get sumerged again, the waves provoqued by the monster's sumerge launcehd Karil and me to the boat, Helga and Alphonse helped us to get in
"Did we have more Arpoons?" I asked, but before someone could answerme, the creature hitted us again
"This boat is not going to last long, and we can't kill that Slave with just Arpoons and normalbullets!" Jasper told me
"Theremust be something else in this boat!" Helga sayed
We starting to search in the boat something that may helpus, nothing but arpoonsand some reds
"How aboyt this?" Karil toke a strange box that was bvelowone of the sits we opened it waitig to saw something useless but by our surprise,the box had Dynamite!
"What the hell is doing a Fisher's boat with dynamite?" Helga asked
"Don't ask, just give the thanks!" Jasper answered at the time he grabbed one, turned it on with a match and launched it to the lake, the explosion launched tons of water up, we all started to do the same, launching the dynamites to random places in the lake with the hope of hitting the monster, suddenly the crature came from below and hited us again
"NO!!" Jasper screamed when the box of Dynamite was launched out of the boat and faledd suncking into the lake, we had only one dynamite left, the monster appeared at the distance igoing fast,in direction to us once more
"Now Wath?" Karil asked, after some seconds of silence, Alphonse told
"I have an idea!" He grabed the dynamite left and an arpoon and started to tied them uo with a rope that was in the boat
"I don't know what are you doing but you better get hurry!" Jasper told to him
"Redy!" Alphonse sayed at the time he got up with the Dynamite added to the arpoon
"Launch it! Quick!" I told him
"No, we only have one try, it must be closer" He answered me looking at the creature that was aproaching, then he turned on the dynamite and launched the arpoon, it got inside the monster's mouth
"BAAMM!" Was all that we heared, we covered our faces, I felt the blood of the monster falling upon us, when we rise our head, we saw the horrible creature making his last brath before got suncked with all the smoke and blood coming out from his mouth, finally, it disapeared below the gray waters of that infernal lake
This time, we saw it close, but Alphonse was our hero
