The adventures of Tintin, Malory and Snowy.

The Broken Ear. (Final)

Lopez.

No One POV:

The ship's horn let out out some steam as it float on the water, on its' way to San Theodoros.

"Lopez could be hiding anywhere! This ship is mucho grande!" Ramon said from his seat as he and Alonso watched the passengers walking around the deck and sometimes glancing at the cleaning lady, who was washing the floor.

"Patience, Ramon!" Alonzo asked as they kept looking around, waiting for a sign from Lopez.

"Ramon! Look at him!" Alnzo suddenly called and Ramon looked over. A fat man with sunglasses and quite an odd choice of outfits stood in front of them, looking at the ocean from the deck for a moment before continuing on his way.

"What about him?" Ramon asked.

"Couldn't that be Tintin in disguise?" Alonzo asked before they lowered their hats to make sure the gentleman wouldn't notice them when he passed by but they kept an eye.

"It is possible... but then where is that girl friend of his? Would be disappointing if she didn't tag along." Ramon whispered.

Suddenly, a gush of wind blew the man's hat... along with his hair.

"Oh! Oh dear! Oh dear!" The man exclaimed in embarrassment as he ran after the items while the criminals watched in shock.

"He wears a wig!" Alonzo pointed out.

"He must be Tintin!" Ramon agreed and they both hurried to get up.

"Oof!" Ramon let out when he tripped over the cleaning lady's mop and she looked over a little, looking surprise before quickly looking away and going back to her work.

"Come on, Ramon!" Alonzo rushed and the started to follow again just as the man finally managed to put everything back in its' place and walked off.

They entered a hallway after him as Ramon pulled out one of his knives and looked around for a moment before going in.

"Oh! OOHH! HELP! HELP!" 'PTANG!'

"Kramba!"

"Missed again!" Ramon exclaimed as he hopped out.

"Good thing too! He wasn't Tintin!" Alonzo replied as they took off.

"Help! Murder! Police!" The poor man kept shouting as he shook in fear with his hands in surrender, his scarf stabbed into the wall with the small knife and his wig and hat were on the ground.

"Nothing, no sign of Lopez anywhere!" Ramon said as he and Alonzo watched the people again, this time standing by the railings.

"Patience, Ramon! There's plenty of time!" Alonzo reassured before turning to look at the water. 

Ramon looked at him before looking back at the deck.

"Kramba!" He exclaimed again at what he saw.

An old lady with a cane walked down the deck with a familiar white dog walking after her.

"That dog! It's is theirs!" Ramon whispered-yelled as he elbowed Alonso and turned him around to look.

"Are you positive?" Alonzo asked.

"Si! The Fool! She's disguised herself but forgot to disguise their dog!" Ramon sneered as they watched them go.

"If you are, it is her fatal mistake." Alonzo said darkly as they followed the old lady, who disappeared behind the corner.

Snowy happily hopped on one of the folding chairs and started his nap, the old lady soon followed and sat on the other chair, looking over the dog and laughing lightly.
