Chapter 5

Chapter 5 Listen, Tail," said Sugar. She was standing on the squirrel's neck. "My mom says that if you are still dead when she gets back, she's going to use you as a carpet. So if you want help, you need to face your fear of shapes like a big boy." "Ow, my head," said Tail. "Let me up. I am a brave squirrel. No more fainting, I promise. It was just so... so..."

第五章听着，尾巴。”糖说。 她站在松鼠的脖子上。 “我妈妈说，如果她回来的时候你还是死了，她就把你当地毯用。 所以如果你想要帮助，你需要像个大男孩一样面对你对形状的恐惧。” “哎呀，我的头。”尾巴说。“让我起来。 我是一只勇敢的松鼠。我保证不会再晕倒了。 那真是太……所以……”

"Big and scary," said Sugar. "We get it." "You did great, Tail," said Dirt. "Now we know the big, scary thing is in the shape of a circle." "Yes! A circle! A big circle," said Tail. "A really big, shiny circle. It came out of nowhere and then stopped approximately four feet off the ground. It was a dark shade of green. Not quite forest green, but close. Possibly hunter green. After a while it made a weird hissing and popping noise. And it interrupted the atmosphere."

“又大又吓人。”糖说。 “我们明白。”“你做得很好，尾巴。”泥土说。 “现在我们知道那个又大又可怕的东西是一个圆圈。” “是啊!一个圆!一个大圆圈。”尾巴说。 “一个又大又亮的圆圈。 它不知从哪里冒出来，然后停在离地面大约四英尺的地方。 那是一片深绿色。 虽然不是森林绿色，但也很接近。 可能是猎人绿色。过了一会儿，它发出一种奇怪的嘶嘶声和爆裂声。 它扰乱了气氛。”

"That's quite an improvement over 'big and scary,'" said Sugar. "You ought to bump your head more often, kid." "I don't think I like you," said Tail. "I'm okay with that," said Sugar. "What do you mean, 'interrupted the atmosphere'?" asked Dirt. Sugar was paying close attention while she wrote in her pad. "Good question," said Sugar. "Thank you," said Dirt. "First it lit up," said the squirrel. "Then I saw a giant door close. I ran away for a while and when I came back, the air around it looked really weird." "Interesting," said Sugar, scribbling down notes. Dirt was drawing as fast as she could. She put her crayons down and gasped. Sugar looked at the drawing and then looked at her own notes:

“这比‘又大又吓人’好多了，”休格说。 “你应该多碰碰头，孩子。” “我想我不喜欢你。”尾巴说。 “我没意见，”休格说。 “你什么意思，‘气氛打断了’？”泥土问。 休格在便笺簿上写东西时，一直在密切注意着。 “问得好，”糖说。 “谢谢你。”泥土说。“首先它亮了起来。”松鼠说。 然后我看见一扇巨大的门关上了。 我跑了一段时间，当我回来的时候，周围的空气看起来很奇怪。” “有意思，”休格一边说，一边草草地记着笔记。 泥土以她最快的速度被吸走了。 她放下蜡笔，倒吸了一口气。 休格看了看画，又看了看自己的笔记：

Round Shiny Atmospheric Disturbance (aka weird air) Gasp! "Gasp!" said Sugar. "Gasp!" said Dirt. Sugar took a deep breath and then slowly exhaled. "You've got a big problem, Tail." "What is it? What is it? What is it?" "This is a HUGE problem." "What? What? What?" "Kid, you have one ENORMOUS problem!"

圆形闪亮的大气扰动（又名奇怪的空气）喘息！“喘气！”糖说。 “喘气！”糖深深地吸了一口气，然后慢慢地呼了出来。 “你有大麻烦了，尾巴。” “什么事？”这是什么？这是什么？”“这是一个巨大的问题。” “什么?怎么啦？什么?”“孩子，你有一个大问题！”

"WHAT??????" "You've got a UFO on your tail, Tail. An unidentified flying object. And I suspect it's not leaving until you get in it and fly away." The squirrel started to turn that weird shade of gray again. "Don't do it, Tail," said Sugar. "You hit the floor one more time, and my mom's going to put you under the coffee table."

“什么? ?”“尾巴，你的尾巴上有一个不明飞行物。 不明飞行物。 我怀疑它不会离开，直到你坐进去飞走。” 松鼠又开始变成那种奇怪的灰色。 “别这样，尾巴，”糖说。 “你要是再摔在地板上，我妈就把你扔到咖啡桌下面。”
