One day two brothers going fishing on long lake. When they reached the place, they have to be.

Peter (that was the name of the younger) decided to see the place and went to the other side of the lake. Skirting the lake, he felt someone's gaze, looking round, he saw the water moving branches of trees as if they who tips. He shouted to the stranger, hoping for a response but heard nothing. Peter went after his brother.

Bringing a brother to the place he pointed to the bushes where supposedly someone was. Seeing nothing, they went back, suddenly, a shadow flashed across the water, they froze. From the water appeared the silhouette of the girl, noting that watching her suspiciously, looked around the boys and sailed away, hitting the water with a huge tail.
