I get on the boat with my sister and start going down the river. I start thinking about all the adventures we had and how it will be to finally be home with mother. The boat stops, "why did the boat stop?" Pita asks.
I don't know why and the river got really quiet, quiet enough for you to hear a pin drop. All of a sudden something bumps the bottom of the boat, it happens again two more times.
"LOOK!" Juanita yells, as the water starts to bubble.
I push my sisters back to make sure they're safe. Then a huge hairy looking man beast jumps out of the water and tips the boat upside down. We all scream as the boat starts to turn to the side and fall into the water. We all peek our heads out of the water but don't see the beast anywhere. We try to swim to the side of the river. My sisters made it but I felt the beast grab my leg and dig its sharp claws into my leg. I screamed as he pulled me under. I manage to break free of the beast’s grip by kicking it in its hairy face. I swam back up to the surface and got to the land my sister’s are on. As I got to the land the beast pops out of the water behind me. The twins grab two very sharp sticks and run up to the monster and impale the monster in its knee and chest making it fall to the ground roaring in pain. The Monster speaks, "please don't kill me!"
The monster says in pain, "what are you? who are you?" I asked the beast. "I am Massacooramaan", the beast says. "Why did you attack us?" the twins say ready to behead the beast.
"It's what I do to survive and I've been alive for hundreds of years and haven't had a meal for a while," said the Massacoormaan.
All of a sudden Juanita grabs a huge stick and swings at the beast but misses and the monster runs off in pain. We all take a break to catch our breath and swim back to the boat and flip it back over. We get back on the boat and start making our way back home.
