The Monster of North Lake: Chapter 2

I swam for my life trying in vain to get away. The monster let out a screech it sounded like it was in pain. I looked back and saw a Bengal tiger clawing at it's head.

"Angel!" I screamed. She held on for dear life but the monster was thrashing too much. It swung it's head like a golf club and sent Angel flying. She crashed into the trees and I couldn't see her anymore. The monster then turned back to me it opened it's mouth and screeched in anger. I raised one of my hands out of the water and tried to blast it with lightning but i could only manage a few weak sparks.

I was a shorted out demigod up against a massive lake monster that could easily swallow me whole. The monster opened it's mouth again and dove at me. My life flashed before my eyes and everything blurred together until an a flaming football brought me back to reality.

It crashed into the monsters head, ricocheted off, and flew back in the direction it came from. The monster roared in pain and dove undewater most likely to heal it's burns. I turned around and saw a small boat heading for me. It was a small aluminum boat with an outboard motor. A teenage kid leaned over the side and held out his hand. He was wearing a cowboy hat and a black muscle shirt. He had red eyes and black hair with bushy sideburns. He hauled me on board then turned to the younger kid driving the boat.

"Go, go ,go! I don't know how long it'll stay down!" He yelled.
