Apex Nation Volume 1: The Babysitter

The Tomb-Looking Cave

on the beach, Sarah is realizing she should have kept her shoes, it seems even darker on the beach she keeps her flashlight beam in front of her watching where she steps. She can hear what sounds like the wind blowing through seashells and faint talking. Sarah hurries trying to be careful where she steps; doesn't want to step on anything dangerous to cause unnecessary injury. She gets a little deeper and shuts her flashlight off, up ahead there is a little cave with a fire burning outside it, light from the fire lights up the area where the cave sits and it reminds her of a tomb. She grabs her hammer out of the tool belt and creeps upon the cave, careful not to step on anything but the sand; she moves over to a huge Starfish laying next to the cave and listens, "We need to hurry Gorge or we will be dead." Says a female voice. "We have plenty of time and we have a gift for The King, Gabey." A deep voice says. Sarah presumes it's Gorge. She ducks as she notices a shadow walking out of the cave an ugly 5 foot that looks like a hybrid crab too Sarah, walks out of the cave, He has a shell and his hands are claws, his eyes look like two long twigs with golf balls attached to them. She doesn't even think, she swings the hammer, which whacks off the crab's head and the crab says, "A human, I haven't had human legs in a while." "Gorge, what happened?" The other crab walks out and sees Gorge talking to a human. Gabey looks at Gorge and says, "Is that a human... Run!" She screams as she runs into the deep blue. George looks at Sarah, Sarah pulls out a knife, and Gorge screams, "She has a knife!" He darts into the water right behind Gabey. Sarah runs into the cave, laying down and sleeping as Stacey. Sarah ran to her and said, "Stacy wake up, wake up Stacy." Stacy opened her eyes and noticed she wasn't in her room, she gave Sarah a huge hug. "I want to go home, I'm scared," Stacey said with tears running down her cheeks. Sarah looks at her sadly and says "We are going home Stacey, I promise you." The female crab, Gabey starts laughing, she's halfway out of the water She says "Look at your legs girl, you are marked... You will never get off this Island, they're waiting for you!" Sarah looks at her angrily. "Who's looking for us?" The crab gives another laugh and says "The Deep Blue Crocs.
