Feeling his love coming to comfort him, he latched onto her wrapping his arms around her tightly, his head burying under her neck as he just whimpered. He recalled a deep-rooted fear inside him and Del could feel it, their little connection happening again and suddenly Del wasn't on the big boat instead they were on a small boat with a little itty bitty Kryner maybe no more than 5-6 years old with him in little red puddle boots, a big rain smock over his coat and a little ranger fishing rod in his hands. In the boat with him was a young fair-skinned woman with short blonde hair and sparkling green eyes casting her own line and a thin flannel-wearing old-timer with a broom handle mustache.<br/>Kryner was peering over the boat when something started to tug on his pole. He smiled giddily and tried to pull back but it did no good as the pole lurched forward but it was much too small for what he caught and it snapped. Sending the off-balanced toddler off the other end of the little rowboat.<br/>"Papa!" Little Kryner screamed as his hands reached for anything as he splashed into the water where he started to sink but in the summer light Kryner's eyes looked to see a massive fucking fish head. It was long and narrow with two round eyes the size of basketballs and an unhinged open mouth with rows of angled teeth with a mouth big enough to swallow him whole. Before Kryner was pulled out of the water he watched the fish turn and swim away... its massive body turned and turned and turned... its silky smooth snake-like side submerged back into the inky darkness and the worst part... he didn't even see the tail by the time it was out of eyesight. Kryner was pulled back onto the boat and taken to shore since then he'd never been in the water where he couldn't see the bottom.<br/><br/>He was shaking at the recount of the memory as he hugged onto Del with his whole body quivering the time he came face to face with a monster Sturgeon fish, normally Sturgeons only grew about 8-12 feet long still a massive fish, but that fish was not normal it was huge and Kryner remembered it very very well.
