Jamal & Vince decided to take a swim in the lake.
Of course, Jamal was naked in his monster form, and Vince didn't even bother to take off his clothes.
The 2 monsters dove in.
They found they could swim really well in the water, diving deep down to the bottom, and swimmign quickly along the surface.
after a good hour, they reached the edge of the lake, shook themselves dry, and relaxed.
"Nothin' like a good swim to make ye feel good." Jamal said, wriggling his monstrous toes.
"Sure, Uncle." Vince said.
after their relaxation, they had their picnic lunch [which was ok, thanks to the waterproof rucksacks Jamal & Vince used], and then carried on with their forest exploration.
Ash they did, Jamal was also beginning to smell a few new smells. and hear a load of things form a mile away. AND once in a while, he scratched his pointy ear with his foot.
Vince didn't know it, but something strange was beginning to happen to his uncle.
