Nick opened fire nicking a shurlup in the side of the head. It held up its arms as if to plead for mercy. it was a female Shurlup, and Nick suddenly had an idea. "Spare this one" He said, he said reaching inside his shirt and pulling out some cords. he bound the Shurlups hands with rope, and picked it off the ground. This female was a young one, and it seemed more friendly than the older Shurlup. the Shurlup sniffed Nicks face, then licked him , almost like a dog, and Nick could see its tail wagging, it wanted to play.' i'm take this one back. We need to have a friendly female nurse the babes, our supply of milk is very limited... kill anything that attacks you.." Nick said, turning and leading the captive Shurlup to the surface.
