The door opens to a muddy, tree lined bank. The lake waves make plopping sounds as they lap against the shore and the air is filled with the sounds of insects and lake birds.

It's secluded enough, the tree line dark and save for the floating bits of wreckage not far off shore the waters are empty. Dusk is nearing and it is cool but not cold yet.

When Hellboy steps through the door he sinks to the tops of his boots in the soft mud. Looking down he grumbles and lifts a leg to pull it free.

"Welcome to Monster Island, home of snakes, beavers and our friend the Ogogpogo."

"Great." Hellboy grins. "I'm just gonna let you two back in, I gotta stick around for when the others arrive to take care of our friend."

He steps up to the door and opens it to Milliways, eyeing the door and looking back at Ironhide. "You going to get through all right?"

Lissar beams up at Ironhide (he truly is lovely in his true size) and then steps into the bar. "Thank you again, Red. I shall notify you when the time is come."

"I'll be fine," says Ironhide, and hunches down. He'll be passing through the door one segment at a time; the subspace compression field works pretty quickly, even if all he does is stick an arm through and then inch inward. "See you around."

"Hey, thank you. The bait idea was a good one." Hellboy raises his hand and waves at her.

"Later." He nods at Ironhide, watching curiously as the robot goes through. Then he shuts the door and starts heading back.

Funny thing, he could have sworn the reports said forty feet for the creature, but it didn't seem nearly that long.

Oh well, probably just wasn't paying good enough attention during the mission briefing. No surprise there.
