Scorpion Quote by Anonymous
““Yu raised the hand with the walking stick, then swung it with all his strength. This was the last thing that Alex remembered—a silver scorpion glinting brilliantly as it swooped toward him out of an Australian sun. He didn’t even feel it as it smashed into the side of his head. “Pick him up!” Yu commanded. He turned his back on the unconscious boy and climbed back into the car.””
