Professor- I am going with commander doe to see the dead
beast.
Garth [still in bed]- umm .. I will also come
Later at the lake—
Professor-amazing it has disappeared’
Commander dore- colleagues posted on the hillock say that
its companions came out of water at night and took away its body.
Garth- your monster will ultimately float to the surface!
Lumiere- it would have started decomposing by then my dream
of fame and immortality is shattered!
Meanwhile eddy macnmas is getting impatient with his knifer
leu
Leu- eddy there is a
lot of noise about these monsters while
you said that they did not exist!
Eddy- leave the monsters out of this, they must have been
killed by now! No?
Leu- I donot know , a part of lake has been sealed!, there
was some gunfire in the morning.
Eddy- luke go back to the hotel and kill garth, ike will
accompany you bring you back in the car
“knifer “leu returns to the hunting lodge…..i will dispose
of garth in the dark when he will be asleep.
Garth and professor lumiere and jane are having dinner with
commander dore..
The food was delicious, Jane would you come for a walk after
dinner –commander dore invites jane
Jane asks Garth will you also come along?
Garth sorry jane .i have to get up early in the morning!
Good!
Thinks leu [who is overhearing their conversation from
nearby table]
Jane and commander are walking on the hillock between
thelake and the village—
Jane-- will your heavy duty artillery arrive in the morning?
Dore-yes! But drop that topic, night is so beautiful and a
gorgeous beauty is with me.
Jane – I am not your navy “bird”
Suddenly [a shout from the hillock overlooking the lake]-look
the monsters!
And they are going towards the village!
Page-18,18a,19
The monsters are going towards the village, we not be able
to give timely warning to the villagers!
In the meantime lieu climbs to the roof of the hotel to gain
entry in to the Garth’s room by the window
Garth sleeps lightly and is immediately awakened sensing
somebody has gained entry in to his room through the open window. He pretends
to be asleep.
Lieu moves carefully towards sleeping Garth with the knife
raised in his right hand thinking to himself-“I will give you a good shave Garth,
right up to the bone!”
But tables are turned soon suddenly Garth’s hand shots out
to grab lieu‘s wrist firmly as he cries out—“damn you, you are breaking my arm!
Garth commands- “Be very still! let me switch on the lights
and see who you are!
Ike waiting in the car sees the giant beasts going towards
the village and thinks- thank god they have not noticed me!
Meanwhile I Garth’s hotel room Garth tries to hold a
struggling lieu asking “who sent you here?”
Lieu does not answer and lunges towards the window and
crashes out the window jumping to the
street below while Garth shouts after him-“ come back you fool!”
Garth jumps after escaping lieu picking up the razor dropped
by lieu
Lieu turns back to see Garth, gaining on him rapidly and
decides to give him a slip but as soon as he turns he is shouting in terror as
he is suddenly confronted by the monstrous beast!
Garth watches helplessly-“monsters! they have caught that
ruffian!”
There is terror in the village as giant animals chase people
including Garth! in the village streets.
One of the giants grabs Garth in his huge front paw
Garth thinks fast-“only by slashing the air sac in his neck
will I be able to survive! Garth lunges at the giant beast’s neck and slashes at
his air sac in the neck as the animal screams loudly in pain
Page-20
The injured monster drops garth and leaves the village along
with his companion—professor and other villagers come running to help
garth- I have disabled one of them!
Who was the poor man that those beasts killed?—asks
professor lumiere
Garth-he was a crook who broke in to my room with a razor
probably a member of the gang of gold robbers.
A panicked Ike comes
to inform eddy macmanas ---“monsters that attacked the village have killed
lieu”
Oh god! Let us run away before they reach here!- says a gang
member
Eddy shouts--- get ready !, we are not leaving without
retrieving our gold from the lake!
But eddy we need professional divers to do that and we don’t
have time!
Eddy[pulling gun from inside jacket pocket]- Garth can do
that and I have plan to make him do it!
Villagers are busy in relief and reconstruction work after
the attack of monsters---
Commander dore- the heavy-duty anti armored guns have arrived,
now we will be ready to commence our work of destroying the monsters!
Garth- commander have you seen professor lumpier and Jane,
they have probably gone for a walk towards the lake?
Lumiere- the beasts seem to have gone back in to the lake at
this point last night, the injured beast must have been healed by nature
spontaneously.
Macnmas gang is watching- professor and the girl are there let
us go and catch them!—says eddy.
The criminal gang reaches the glenoig lake—if we catch the
old man and the girl we can put pressure on garth to retrieve our gold from the
lake-says eddy.
“Whatever you say eddy!”
Yes! I am professor lumiere…what do you people
want---questions professor lumiere as the gang approach him and jane
“keep calm “if you come with us quietly you will not be
hurt—threatens a gun wielding goon!
Pag-20
Garth-“if that anti armored bullet could stop a tank they
would be able to stop these monsters too?
Commander Dore- today we shall attack the giant beasts
again.
“Mr. Garth telephone call for you”
“coming”
Eddy [on the other side of the line]-we have kidnapped your
girlfriend and professor, do you want to see them alive?
Garth- “Are you the boss of gold robber’s gang?”
“You guessed right” Garth I don’t know your intensions but
you are creating problems for us.
“Now you bring a scuba diver suit along with you and help
bring our gold up from the bottom of the lake to the surface, and do not play
smart otherwise your girlfriend and that old man professor will be finished
off”
Garth – “I will reach there and no tricks”
Commander Dore- “is there some trouble?”
Garth –yes but I can’t talk about it right now but you keep
a gun boat ready to move at my signal.
And give me a flare gun.
I have to go to the shooting lodge near the lake, when you
spot the smoke rising come quickly.
Dore- this is all so mysterious but I will do as you say.
Garth reaches the shooting lodge---“where are my friends?”
Eddy- when you will help us by retrieving gold from the
bottom of the lake then only you will get them back.
Garth in a scuba gear prepares to dive-professor lumiere and
Jane should be unharmed. Otherwise I will see to it that all of you go to jail...
at the very least!
“Eddy he has dived in deep waters”
Friends keep your guns ready as soon as he resurfaces knock
him down.
