here,”Calumreplied,scanning the vast sea.“A sea monster thathas scared the fish away.\"  \nMatt dismissed the idea with a snort.\"That'sjust an old wives'tale.”  \nCalum kept eyeing the horizon.Nothing broke  \nthe surface of the steel gray waters except for a steep,rocky islet not far from the beach.  \n\"I’m not so sure,\"he said.“Uncle Hal told mehe saw a dark shape in the water

boiling.It churned and foamed,causing waves to crash against the sides of their boat.  \n\"Look!\"he cried,pointing.“Over there!”  \nMatt turned,grabbing the edge of the boat as itstarted to rock
