With
a roar the Tyrannosaur's head burst through the waterfall
Tim
stared in terror as the big mouth gaped wide. Lex shrieked and threw
herself on the ground. The head swung back and forth and pulled out
again.
Tim
pulled Lex deeper into the recess just as the jaws burst through again
roaring, the thick tongue flicking
in and out rapidly.
The
recess was only a few feet deep and crammed with machinery. There
wasn't any place for them to hide.
The
head came through the water again, but slowly this time, and the jaw
came to rest on the ground. With a low growl the jaws slowly opened and
the tongue snaked out moving slowly to the left, then to the right,
slapping wetly against the machinery. The tip curled around the pipes
and valves, sensing them. It dragged against Lex's legs.
"Ewww," Lex said .
The
tongue stopped. It curled like a snake up the side of her body.
"Don't
move," Tim whispered.
Past
her face then up along Tim's shoulder and finally wrapping around his
head. Tim squeezed his eyes shut as the slimy muscle covered his face.
It was hot and wet and it stunk like urine. Wrapped around him, the
tongue began to drag him very slowly toward the open jaws.
"Timmy!"
Tim
couldn't answer. Him mouth was covered by the flat black tongue. He
could see, but he couldn't talk.
The
tongue dragged him toward the snorting mouth.
