WOW! Intense action and exciting adventure! :D I wasn't expecting the 'crab' to look like that! It sounds terrifying. I don't blame Tintin for screaming XD Poor Milou. I hope he is not badly damaged. And poor Captain getting injured. I loved the chase scene through the forest and the bicycle breaking. It was nail-biting. Can't wait to read next chapter :)

:D I have the biggest grin ever right now.

'Crab' ... yeah ... I have soft spot for big steam-powered machines. ^^ Oh my ...

Read with 'Sherlock Holmes (2009)' soundtrack as background music. Especially with the 'Psychological Recovery ... 6 Months' track. I played it over and over and over while writing this. For me, the chase starts (roughly) around 8:30.
It is no laughing matter when bicycle breaks under you. I somehow managed to tear down the treadle pedal and ended up in ditch. I am not cycling ever since.

I'll be changing my internet service this weekend, so I don't know if I manage to post next part on time. If everything goes well, it will be on Saturday (15th) at 12 o'clock. (as usual)

Who wouldn't? XD

That's awesome. I love it when music inspires a scene. It happens to me a lot. I'll listen to a track and my mind starts making a mini movie scene to go with it. Unfortunately, I don't have the Sherlock 2009 album, so I can't listen while reading :(

That sounds scary and painful :0 No wonder you never go near a bicycle.I'll be changing my internet service this weekend

Ah, ok. I will wait patiently :)

Ha! youtube is here for such situations. ^^ I love that soundtrack, Hans Zimmer makes so vivid music.

Bicycle. Oh, it hurt. I snatched my bike on myself and got hit with saddle right ... there. That time, and that time only, I was so glad that I haven't been born as boy.

Of course! How could I forget about youtube?! Thank you, I will listen to it with enjoyment. Hans Zimmer is wonderful. Didn't he do the music for Pirates Of The Caribbean?

[winryweiss]

Sure he did. ^^ And for bunch of other movies as well. (Including Disney's Lion King) Talented fella.
