⑮ “Because that creature is made of steel.” I moved myself quickly to the top of the being, and kicked it. It was evidently a hard, solid body. The black back that supported me was smooth, polished, nothing like an animal. The blow produced a sound of metal; and, incredible though it may be, it seemed as if it was made of metal plates.

Continuation
A Continuation of 20000 Leaques under the Sea
We were aboard the machine now, and I shook with cold in the darkness. My eyes could see nothing. We were alone. I couldn’t say where I was, nor could I 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. I could hear Ned and Conseil breathing quickly. They were nervous, too.
43
Continuation
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.
44
Continuation
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 I 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.
