Jamal and Vince had the best time of their lives, exploring the forest as monsters.
Vince's wings allowed Vince to soar and glide from treetop to treetop, and Jamal's grown legs made short work of climbing those trees.
And they could also move faster on foot as well.
Soon, the monsters that were Jamal and his nephew Vince reached the lake.
They stopped to take a few minutes breather.
"Being a monster is amazing!" Vince said. "Ya said it, ne nephew!" Jamal said.
The 2 monsters went up to the lake, and looked at their reflections in the water.
"Cool!" Vince said. "Our reflections are monstrous, too."
"Yeah." Jamal said. "Watch this."
He dropped a stone into the water, and the reflections rippled.
Then, to Jamal and Vince's amazement, the reflections changed into their human forms.
"Weird." Vince thought. "Our reflections became human in the water."
"It's cause we and only we can see our new forms." Jamal told his nephew. "Anyone else that sees us will just see us as normal human beings."
"Wow." Vince said.
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.
