“Leave him alone!” cried Iggy. He tried to shoulder-charge the carnivore but it shrugged him off, spat out the stone and clamped its jaws around Iggy’s tail instead. “Ow! Leave me alone too!” Struggling fiercely, Iggy felt the creature’s teeth began to sink into his tough scaly hide . . .

“NOOOOOO!” hooted Gipsy loudly, still sprawled on the floor.

The monster stopped. It looked hard at Gipsy.

Suddenly, it spat out Iggy with a defiant roar. Then it turned and stamped away along the corridor, knocking Arx, Griffen and the baryonyx guards aside.

Teggs staggered over to Iggy. “Are you OK?”

“Just some scratches.” Iggy smiled weakly. “I guess I was too tough and chewy for Big-Jaws there to bother with!”

Arx smiled at Gipsy as he helped her up. “Or else Gipsy’s super-hoot shocked him into dropping you!”

Teggs looked at Griffen. “Now do you believe me about the monster?”

Griffen cuffed his two guards round the ears. “Don’t just sit there,” he shouted. “Get reinforcements and catch that creature!” They scuttled away dizzily.

“I’ve never seen anything like that before,” said Iggy.

“It must be a specially trained pet of Prince Poota’s,” Griffen snarled.

Gipsy shuddered. “He should keep it on a lead!”

“I suppose the monster doesn’t know that Doctor Herdlip has already given King Jeck the cure, and it’s still trying to stop him,” Arx reasoned.

“Captain!” said Gipsy urgently, peering through the hole in the wall. “Where’s Herdlip gone?”

Teggs clambered into the doctor’s room and peered round. Just like before, the experiments had been smashed and overturned as if a terrible struggle had taken place. “Perhaps he jumped out through the window?” Teggs said. “It’s broken like everything else.”

“It’s a long way down,” Arx observed. “But the monster certainly must have got in that way. After all, the door’s still locked!”

“There is one other place it might have come from,” said Iggy, pointing to the shattered toilet. “From down there – maybe it crawled up the pipes!” Gipsy gasped. “Perhaps its lair is in the sewers!”
