The Coconut Rebellion II
|
At the home of the Scourge, a small cavern lay halfway through the entrance tunnel. Inside brooded Krillanger. Compared to his previous luxurious dwelling, this cavern was an insult. But with nowhere else to go, it sufficed for now.
Krillanger counted the days when his son would enter adulthood. For all would change after that. A genetic code lay embedded in Krillanger’s bloodline. A code of pure evil past down from generation to generation. It lay dormant for now, but soon Louis and his nice ways would change …
Krillanger cackled gleefully. Not even the Squidfather knew of the family secret, as it had been carefully guarded for generations. Already Krillanger’s new plan was just about complete. This time the Squidfather would not interfere, because the Squidfather was the target!
‘Oh yes my dear readers,’ mused Krillanger, ‘I have not nearly aimed high enough! You see, I no longer want to be King. There a fare greater prizes on offer than being mere King. There is no more ultimate power in our waters than the Squidfather and that is where my destiny lies. I can see it now — a new era of fear and domination with King Louis and Squidfather Krillanger ruling with an iron tentacle! All will bow before me. Nastiem, Marcus, the Manta-Ray Council. And of course, McScale and his wretched colony. When Louis feels the force of evil awaken my dear readers, he will seek me out. Then my plan will begin, oh yes indeed! For now, there is work to be done … dangerous work. Goodbye for now ...'
Krillanger glided out of his pitiful cavern and exited the home of the Scourge. He headed north-west to undertake the longest journey of his life. A journey that would take Krillanger to far away waters. For to take on the Squidfather, he would need an alliance with the most fearsome creature of all. A creature that most thought just a myth.
The Kraken!
