"So you're the one who has been destroying innocent creatures' homes. Dashi racked her mind for something to say, but Shellington was the first to speak. Captain Barnacles would have normally been the one to speak, but as he was trying to hold on underneath he couldn't really hold a conversation very well. His tone was cold and his voice was loud and strong. "So you're the ones sabotaging my fishing operation." If ice had a voice this would be it. The wolf surveyed all of this with curious eyes, then his face changed and he looked suddenly mean. Underneath Captain Barnacles was hanging on, Kwazii next to him and Peso desperately clawing at the net to get a better grip on it from where he clung with one flipper. Below them Tweaks ears were twisted as she looked up from her uncomfortable position upside down. They wore identical sailors outfits and were obviously fishermen.ĭashi and Shellington exchanged curious looks. Two others jumped down, one was a brown dog and the other a bear. ![]() His body language showed arrogance and power. He was handsome with ice blue eyes and a sailors hat cocked jauntily on his head. The figure standing there was a white wolf. Then one jumped down into Dashi' s vision and she let out a gasp. Up on the deck Dashi craned to see silhouettes of figures standing there looking at the net. The net finally came to a juddering halt, five metres above the water swinging slightly. She could hear him muttering to himself: "Mustn' t look down, mustn't look down," and she stood closer to him. Shellington whimpered slightly, and Dashi remembered that he didn't like heights. ![]() The net was lifted up, higher and higher, by a crane built into the ship. The other three were just seeing the ship and trying to hold on to the bottom of the net at the same time. Dashi, Shellington and Tweak inside their Gups looked with wide eyes at the massive contraption in front of them. For the first time the Octonauts could see the dark shape which revealed to be a large fishing ship. ![]() Peso nearly slipped but hung on grimly with one flipper as the net was jolted and lifted right out of the water. Barnacles swum to the net and clung on underneath, Kwazii joining him. The Captain's eyes widened and he quickly jumped out of the Gup, followed by Kwazii and finally a nervous looking Peso. But I think we're all right." Dashi suddenly felt a jolt that threw her off balance into Shellington as the net was yanked up sharply, Tweak cried out as the vibration of the Gup D shook her about. "Well Shellington hit his head before and Tweak' s stuck upside down in the Gup D. ![]() On her radio Pesos face came on, his small worried eyes wide in concern. As the Captain neared the Octonauts caught could see his worried face. Shellington looked nervous to be above water on the fishing boat, Dashi knew there would be a confrontation. From the corner of her eye Dashi could see the Gup A approaching, but they were nearly above water and nearing the dark shape. The two Gups were still lodged where they had been caught, Tweak in an uncomfortable position upside down. Dashi mentally thanked the fact that there were no fish this time, or they wouldn't be able to breathe. The net had nearly broken the surface of the water.
