The Giant Pacific Octopus

The Giant Octopus had just been awoken from its slumber. It had spent the night stuck onto a piece of coral. It went unnoticed because of its special ability to camouflage. It woke up very hungry. When you're as big as a Giant Pacific Octopus you're probably going to have a big appetite. 

It moves through the depths of the ocean. The Octopus lives in a place where food is easily found. It slowly drifts through the sea bed, slowly approaching it’s prey. A cast of crabs. The predator waited for the perfect moment to strike. “WOOSH! It caught the crabs. The crabs get stuck in the octopus’s curves waiting to be devoured.

The Giant Octopus had eaten so much that it’s belly was stuffed. The Octopus needed to rest so it found a peaceful pace cave to rest in. It slowly drifted to sleep, as it did, you could hear it’s 3 heart beating.

The Octopus woke up once again from it’s nap. It swam up to the surface of the ocean, hoping to catch an afternoon snack. A seabird flew over its head, it shot the bird with venom making it paralyzed and an easy prey. The Octopus then continues to feast on the bird.

Later that evening, it slowly drifted down to the ocean floor, not bothering to look for a place to finally say goodbye. It had been a good 5 years and now it was ready to say goodbye. It’s suckers slowly start to die, and the colour of it’s skin fades it’s tentacles lying on the wet sand. The Giant Pacific Octopus is now gone!
