Suddenly fish flopped 2 on the bare sand!

Boka and Kama ran up the cliff path. Jack andAnnie grabbed their shoes and Jack's pack.



At the top of the cliff, everyone looked back. Jackcouldn't believe his eyes!



A wave was rising up like a dark mountain ofwater. It came surging toward the shore, growingeven taller.



"Wow," whispered Annie.



"Get back!" shouted Boka.

When the water rolled back over the cliff, they allhurried back to the edge to see what had happened.

"Scary," breathed Annie.



"Yeah," said Jack. "We just made it.""Boka! Kama!" voices yelled.
