My Knight in Non-Shining Armour

The Black Void - Episode 1949

What with my fear of the crocodile close behind me and my astonishment at the sight of the knight ahead of me, I have none of the embarrassment that I would normally feel at being discovered naked. Have I stumbled across an extra in a movie being shot somewhere nearby? That's the only possibility - unlikely though it is - that I can think of in the split second that is all that I can spare in my desperate situation.

There's no time to acknowledge the knight's rather superfluous warning. It's too late to try to scramble back to my feet, so as the croc lunges for me I essay a roll to one side. The side of its head brushes my calf as it narrowly misses with its jaws. Before it can try again, the knight is upon it.

  1. The knight despatches the croc.
  2. The croc despatches the knight, but at least the fight has given me time to put some distance between myself and it.
  3. At the end of the fight, both knight and croc are dead.
  4. I realise that there is something odd about this knight. From the shape of the breastplate, this is that non-existent entity, a female knight.
