Atlantis: Milo's Return Page #2

---

brought this Leviathan to life?

This could all be the fault of Atlantis.

I'd worry more about how we fight it

than who's to blame.

Last time we shot at the Leviathan,

these things didn't even tickle it.

Eh, Audrey, if you keep hitting that thing

we're gonna be "tickled"

all over these walls.

Yeah, yeah. Like I don't know that.

Well, careful. Doc Sweet's not here

to glue us back together.

This time it's my special blend.

I start with a batter

of gelatinous nitroglycerine,

dribble it on a shaped charge of TNT,

and top it with just

a dusting of black powder

and oregano.

You can't make a bomb

without oregano.

It makes a very nice "boom."

Let the lobster chew on that.

You know, I really don't think

it is a Leviathan.

The survivor called it the Kraken,

a legendary Norwegian sea monster

with arms a quarter mile long.

Nothing like what we saw in Atlantis.

But Atlantean inventors always base

their designs on real animals.

Like the giant squid.

It may not be a Leviathan,

but it could still be

an Atlantean war machine.

She is right.

No creature of flesh and blood

can bring down a steel cargo ship.

Something's got the ship!

It's ripping open the launch doors.

My cheese!

You can have it.

Get to the sub pods.

Vinny, we're gonna need that thing

out of the way.

Coming up, extra oregano.

Launch when ready.

Next time, chili powder.

Uh-oh.

That doesn't sound good.

It's pulling them down

on the starboard side.

Where's Milo and Kida?

I didn't see them launch.

Milo, are you there? Kida?

Come on, come on. Back-up batteries.

Time to back-up.

Thing off my back

while I look for Milo.

This is Milo.

We're on back-up batteries,

sinking fast, no propulsion.

- We have a major leak...

- Leaks.

Leaks. And the view port is cracking.

If the ballast valves

aren't blocked,

you can flush the water

by rerouting the pressure tubes and...

Audrey, we are up

to our rear ends in water.

It's no time for how-to books.

Okay, okay. We're coming.

- Jeez.

- Well, you'd better hurry 'cause...

We're about to hit

an undersea mountain.

That is not a mountain.

Audrey!

Got you covered, Milo.

Watch your right dive plane.

No problem.

Where's the Kraken?

It has disappeared.

At least it was not Atlantean.

Somehow, that doesn't make me

feel any safer.

The creature

buckled hull plates fore and aft.

We'll be lucky to get to the port

for repairs.

I'll send a launch for you.

Don't worry about us, Captain.

Just take care of the Atlantean.

There's a fishing village

to the northeast.

We'll be there when you finish repairs.

Whoa! That's your sub pod.

That's not coming out of my pay check.

Okay, let's get to shore
