Water Monster Madness

 

By Molly Jacobs

In the ocean on a boat

Going fast, eyes tearing up; cold

Something hits me

Stop

Was it a buoy? 

Bump again

Drink falls into the water

I really wanted that. 

Hit again, harder this time, almost fall off

I guess it’s not a buoy

Look over the edge, see something moving 

Get scared.

Call the coast guard.

Something’s attacking my boat.

Alone.

What do I do?

Back outside

Attacker hits once again, 

Boat vertical

Hanging on by the side

Legs dangling

Crash down to the water

Head smashed into floor

Blood

Help

What’s happening?

Sharks? 

Loch ness monster?

Champ?

Head spinning; dizzy

Boat rocking; terrified.

It jumps up; bigger than a bus

Screaming  

Blood everywhere

Lights flashing

HELP!
