“I don’t know you that well.” Just then a bell rang from the garden, “The Squink are up.”

  The goblins scrambled over themselves trying to get their gear for the hunt. When they got outside they saw the gnome ringing the bell.

  “Thanks Noggit,” said Dread Beard, “you can fish in my pond for now, but don’t catch anything.”

  The gnome smiled as the goblins filed onto the beach then he went into the house to finish the leftover tea and crumpets.

  “He is a cheeky little gnome,” Dread Beard said to himself, “but useful sometimes.”

  Firing their arrows at the squink the goblins all missed and the squink, realising they were being fired at, all started to flee to the other end of the beach. Ugbash and the others started to run after them.

  “The pirate/hunter shouted after them, “You don’t want to be runnin’ after squink, you’ll be runnin’ all day. No, you need to trick the squink into thinking you’re their favourite bit of food.”

  “What’s that then?” asked Ugbash.
