confidence like rambo.
Then i saw it from where i stand, a very
mighty fish like arrow head, swimming close to

Omo make una come see action film, as the
fish swim closer to felix, felix rose his matchet
and hit the fish on the head, then there was
silent, no blood, nothing at all, after a minute
something took felix down the river, then the
thing started dragging felix to the bottom of the
river, i ran after it shouting, make una help oh,
make una help oh something don carry felix

The thing they drag felix to a very deep place
and na only God go help am if them enter the
deepest,.
Then from nowhere, i saw my brother and
other people running after me from my back, e
be like say them hear my voice.
Cactus: oz wetin they happen,why you they

heavily, point at felix as the fish continue
dragging him, my brother saw it see the way

same school)
Felix was struggling trying to free himself from
the grip and the fish was slowing down still
holding hom tight, my bros took bamboo wood
from the ground and ran to the front, before
the deepest part there is one big tree that fell
on the river creating a crosspart, my brother
quickly climb the tree, i reach there omo i nor
fit climb this tree oh e dey too tiny, even the
other guys no climb am, maybe na boyscout
wey my brother join give am mind like that my
brother set the bamboo tree downward as the
fish approach, e be like say the fish don tire
because e don they slow down, so as the fish
approach the tree, felix rose his hands up and
grip the bamboo stick, the fish still try to pull
felix from the bamboo, therefore making my
brother to fall inside the river, as my brother
fell ontop the river, i quickly look for another
bamboo and throw it to them, e be like the fish
don go, because i nor see am again, my
brother drag felix from the river as he grip the
bamboo, while i pull them from the deep blue
sea with felix bleeding badly.
