Leprechaun's Revenge Page #5

---

Maybe. I got to go. Okay?

Yeah. Look who wants to be

the knight in shining armor now.

Very funny. Call Mom, smart-ass.

Call your mom.

That's your mom you're talking about.

Good luck with Karen.

Unit 214 checking in.

Who am I looking for, Carrie?

Molly Morris called in

again about Ian,

said he went missing on one

of his hunting trips yesterday.

Yeah, well, I found his car.

Probably just drunk again.

The Sheriff wants you

to check it out anyway.

Copy that.

I hate Keening Woods.

Ian?

Oh, my God.

Carrie, get the Sheriff

out here right away.

Hey, Karen.

I wanted to come by and check on you,

make sure you're feeling...

- Are you all right?

- Yeah, you didn't have to do that.

I know.

Actually, I wanted to talk to you

about something, if that's all right?

Yeah. Yeah.

It's...

What's that?

You don't remember drawing this?

Well, you did. Right before

you freaked out in the car.

This word, you know what it means?

I connected the letters like this.

L- U-C-H-O-R

P- A-I-N.

Luchorpain.

It's old Gaelic for leprechaun.

- How do you know all this?

- I know, right?

I'm the only kid in the world

who still uses the library.

Yeah. Well, then I must

suck at drawing

because this doesn't look

anything like a leprechaun.

Well, not the kind that we're taught about.

But look at this.

It's the thing

that came at me in Keening Woods.

You must think I'm nuts.

No, I don't.

Well, then you're nuts

for believing me.

Maybe.

Honey, it's a very nice drawing,

but what is it exactly?

A drawing of what came

at me in the woods.

It's what?

Look, I know it sounds crazy,

but I think it's a...

I can't believe I'm saying this.

I think it's a leprechaun.

All right. Sweetie, what are

you saying now, okay?

I think Pop was right.

Maybe there's some truth

to the old town legend about the settlers

bringing a leprechaun with them

from Ireland.

Okay, that's great.

But, honey, listen.

You and I both know

that Pop's not altogether there.

But I know what I saw.

I'm sure you do, but could we please just

talk about this later when I get home?

I'm in the middle of it right now.

- Okay. Bye, Dad.

- Bye.

You all right? What's the matter?

What's wrong?

- Get back in the car.

- I'm fine.

- Get out of here.

- I'm okay.

It's Stanley Howarth.

Looks like his body was dragged up

from his fishing spot.

Is that an animal attack?

We haven't had bears

in here for 60 years.

That ain't no boar.

- What's that?

- What?

Is that a goat?

Not unless it walked on two legs.

What?

Look at that track pattern.

It's a two-legged creature.

I'm sorry.

You all right?

What if I told you that I...

That I just saw a leprechaun?
