Who: Ax/Alex and Arthur/Aquaman
Where: Locke City's park
When: July 24
What: All the cool kids are getting attacked by weird animals!


Alex had noticed a lot more posts on the secret network lately about weird animals, some of them attacking people, so he was on his guard as he walked through the park.

What he wasn't looking out for was something coming from the direction of the stream that meandered through the grounds.

It ran into him from behind, just below knee-height; his legs buckled and he hit the sidewalk hard, scraping up his palms. Scrambled back to his feet (silently grateful that being startled this time hadn't made his tail decide to show up--no way to keep people from seeing it here), and when he got a good look at the thing, all he could do was stare as he backed out of range.

The thing looked like it was wearing weirdly-fitted armor at first, or maybe the plates of what sure looked like metal were just part of it. It was like a mutated fish that had struggled onto land, and now seemed to be having a hard time getting its too-many-limbs under control.

Awkwardness of the way it moved aside, it was definitely stalking him, advancing as he backed up, and he was going to be trapped up against the support for the pedestrian bridge across the stream if he didn't figure something out quick.

"Still, siccing that thing on ANYONE isn't exactly a noble move, the fiends." Arthur shook his head but gave Alex a grin. "Glad to do it! If you ever run into another creature like that, just give old Arthur a call!"
