Splinters of bamboo shot to the ceiling, and Devon barely managed to scramble out of the way as the monster’s head thrust up, out of the floorboards, jaws snapping.

“Lindu kuat!” Nissa cried, and a shimmering magical bubble appeared, surrounding her and the others.

The shark’s rotting head thrashed sideways, and its hand-sized teeth struck the protective magic.

Nissa shuddered, struggling to maintain concentration against the force of the attack, but the shield held. The massive jaws turned away, and sparks flew from something glittering inside the monster’s mouth.

Devon shrieked, his voice register momentarily returning to what it had been before puberty.

“Bola rashan bakar!” Arzu chanted, and threw a scintillating ball of green energy at the monster.

“No!” Nissa cried, fearing that being so close to the explosive spell would kill them all.

“Kinil!” Arzu finished, ignoring her and speaking the word that would set off the magic.

Nissa braced for the explosion, trying to shield Rat with her own body, but the blast never came. Instead, the deadly magic sparked and sizzled before vanishing with a WHOOSH!

Something about the failed spell, though, seemed to do the trick, because the shark twisted and dived back under the water with a huge splash, drenching the whole of the infirmary, which was now rapidly disintegrating around them, as had the rest of the floating island.

“Sorry,” Arzu said, “I—” She put one hand to her head. “My concentration…”

“It’s all right,” Nissa told her, secretly glad that the hex hadn’t worked.

“I’m getting out of here,” Devon declared. “If you’re smart, you’ll follow me.” Without waiting for a reply, he dashed across the floating wreckage, and out the gaping hole in the infirmary wall where the door had been.

“No, wait—” Nissa called, but it was too late. Already the young healer was skipping across the wreckage like a kid jumping stepping stones.

“Look out!” Arzu screamed.

Devon turned back just as the shark surged up out of the water. It slid its rotting body across the wreckage, the way Nissa had once seen a sea lion skid onto a beach to catch a seagull, and grabbed the teenager by the legs.

The youngster screamed as the monster bit down, filling the air with the snap of breaking bones.

“Lindu!” Nissa shouted, but he was too far away for her shield to reach.

With a vicious shaking of its head, the undead fish snapped the boy in two, gobbled up both bits, and then slid back beneath the wave.

“Bola rashan bakar!” Arzu screamed, tossing another of her deadly balls of energy.

This one soared straight and true into the eddy created by the beast’s departure.

“Kinil!” Arzu said, triggering the magic.

WHOOMPH!

The sea where the spell had vanished surged up into a dome of white swirling water, pushing the disintegrating pieces of the town away in every direction. Scaletown itself had become a flotilla now, a fleet of disorganized wreckage, some burning, much bloodstained, all eerily silent save for the ebb and surge of the waves.

As the dome of the explosion settled, the monster reappeared, surfacing beyond where the hex had struck.
