Your own Queen, for crying out loud!"
"Chew does have some pretty teeth, don' chew?" said the watchman. "But I
am not afraid of chew, zo chew should leave now. I do not know chust
'zactly vat a queen might be, but I am sure that it iss delissious."
"We do not have time for this," hooted Lisa. "We are on an important
mission to save the Lunechien Forest of Oz from a gigantic Forest
Monster, and you had better not hold us back! The Forest Monster is
already bigger than the lot of you, and he will come for you sooner or
later if you don't let us stop him!"
"Vorest Monzter?" echoed the great shark.
"That's what I said," replied Lisa angrily.
"Chust vat iss ze Vorest Monzter made uff?" asked the shark.
"Er, I don't know. Whatever monsters are usually made of," answered the
female owl. "Flesh and blood, I guess."
"Und he iss ass big ass chew zay he iss?" asked the shark.
"Probably bigger by now," put in Tweaty, realizing what was happening.
"Zen ve shall eat ziss Vorest Monzter!" said the shark. "Ve shall eat
him 'til he iss only bones!"
Lisa was not entirely sure the Forest Monster had any bones, as she
suspected that spiders had exoskeletons instead, but she saw no reason
to bring this up at the moment.
