how would this sentence look if it were a fused sentence?

The creature sat upright and tugged at the shackles binding his ankles, Frankenstein uttered a piercing scream.
Top answer
Right now the sentence is fused I believe. There is a comma between ankles and Frankenstein , but there is no conjunction. A correct way to put it would be The creature sat upright and tugged at the shackles binding his ankles, and Frankenstein uttered a piercing scream.
