Chantale was stung by a beached lion’s mane jellyfish, which is rarely fatal but certainly hurts like hell

A high, piercing scream rose above the smash of waves.

Chantale, one foot held protectively against her chest, sobbing as she kicked sand at the still ensnared tentacles of the jellyfish wrapped around her paws. The creature was long dead, and she hadn’t meant to wander over it, but the bell had been so squishy beneath her feet that she had eyed up the tentacles as well.

And now she was in a world of hurt unlike any she’d ever experienced. Breath whining in her chest, she managed to escape the snare of the tentacles, but pain still came over her in jolts, all across her legs where the tentacles had brushed her.

Maman! Her voice rose in that same high wail for @Mireille , though when she didn’t see her immediately, Chantale wailed again, even higher.

Maman!
