The creature moved, as if in affirmation of their words. It opened its eyes and turned to the Doctor, letting out a screech that made his blood run cold. No. No, it couldn't be.
And then it vanished, dropping down to the depths. There was the sound of scraping, and the Doctor swam back to the mouth of the cave. Dozens of other rocks broke open and more of the creatures followed the first's lead, joining together like a giant bait ball, swirling and swirling and vanishing.
