WIP extract book 2 of 6 SlenderWolf In With the In Crowd Chapter 3 Copernicus The Colonel responds, “MegaBite? He’s a truculent child, his younger brother is heading that way too!” “Can we not ask the ghost of ScoobyClueless to give them a stern warning?” “I’m getting too old to play the ghost now. We’ll need somebody else to do it this year.” A watercolour painting of a 70 something man. He has short neat fair hair, and proud chestnut coloured eyes. His forehead and face have no wrinkles, but his jaw and his chin, and the mild folds of skin on his neck reveal that he’s quite old. He has a neutral expression as if posing for a regimental portrait. He is wearing a pale blue dress shirt and his cricket club tie, which has bold stripes of Royal blue, dark blue and silver. The image is labelled “The Colonel”. A watercolour painting of a boisterous 15 year old teenage orphan with fair skin, blue eyes, and messy, dark brown hair. He has a slight, neutral smile and is wearing a plain white T shirt. The image is labelled MegaBite. He has a habit of getting into trouble. copyright © Scott Rochester 2026
