My eyes could see nothing. We were alone. I couldn’t say where I was, (nor could l imagine), All was black, and I was amazed that even after some minutes, my eyes had not been able to see even the smallest shape. l could hear Ned and Conseil breathing quickly. They were nervous, too. Our prison was suddenly lit, and we closed our eyes painfully at the light. (There came the sound of a heavy door opening), and two seamen appeared. They examined us with great attention, without saying a word. Then they shut the door again and left. “We will die in this prison!” cried Ned. “Nonsense!” I said. “We have survived worse than this!” I did not completely believe the words I said, but I knew they would comfort Ned and Conseil. The door opened again, and the men returned with water and dry biscuits. Hardly a large meal, but it made me realise just how hungry l was. We ate in silence. “Tomorrow, we take you home,” said one of the men in a deep voice. “But first you must tell us how you found our machine” smiled. I would never again take my home for granted.
