老鼠记者 · 18 Shipwreck on the Pirate Islands
GLUB... BLUB, BLUB, BLUB! The plane crashed into the sea with a loud splash. Instantly, we began to sink. GLUB... BLUB, BLUB, BLUB! We tried to open the door. It wouldn't budge. Then I remembered something I had read in one of my favorite books. In the book, the hero accidentally drives off a bridge. His car sinks underwater. The water pressure is too strong for him to escape. He has to wait until the car goes completely under. Before long, the water had covered our plane. I pushed with all of my strength. And the door opened! Isn't reading amazing? I took a deep breath. Then I grabbed
Benjamin's paw and hurled myself out into the water. It was FREEZING! I started swimming. The water was darker than my mouse hole at midnight. I couldn't see my own fur in front of my face. But I could see bubbles. They were coming from my mouth. I followed them up to the surface. "We made it!" I spluttered, giving Benjamin a hug. Thea and rap popped up next to me. But there was no sign of Bouncer. I looked around and spotted a small island not too far away. We swam to shore. Then we collapsed onto the sand. Water dripped down my whiskers. I was so tired, I couldn't move. That was a good thing, because I wanted to strangle my sister for bringing me on this NIGHTMARE vacation!
