10 Dreamtime

Chapter 10 Dreamtime The boy was on the ground on his hands and knees Meet my young helper from Camelot said Morgan The boy glanced up. He had a friendly freckled face and twinkly dark eyes His hair was the same color that Teddy's fur had been. He looked a bit older than Jack about ten or so Am I back? he asked

第十章 梦境时光 男孩四肢着地趴在地上 “来见见我从卡米洛特来的小助手。”摩根说 男孩抬眼瞥过来。他长着一张友好的、满是雀斑的脸，还有一双亮晶晶的黑眼睛 他头发的颜色和之前泰迪的毛一模一样。他看起来比杰克大一点，差不多十岁左右 “我变回来了吗？”他问

You're back said Morgan the boy leaped up and hugged her Thank you. He cried and I hope next time you'll ask before trying the spells in my spell book Said Morgan the boy grinned sheepishly. I Promise then he looked at Jack and Annie. I Accidentally changed myself into a dog. He said Annie laughed But at least I got to have exciting adventures as a dog. He said You were a great dog said Annie. We liked you as Teddy. What's your real name? If you like you can keep calling me Teddy the boy said or how about Ted? Okay, Ted said Annie

“你变回来了。”摩根说，男孩一下子跳起来抱住了她 “谢谢你。”他喊道。“另外我希望下次你试我魔法书里的咒语之前，能先问问我。” 摩根说道。男孩不好意思地咧嘴笑了。“我 保证。”然后他看向杰克和安妮。“我 不小心把自己变成了一只狗。”他说。安妮笑出了声 “不过至少当狗狗的时候我体验了好多刺激的冒险呀。”他说 “你当狗狗特别棒，”安妮说，“我们很喜欢泰迪模样的你。你真名叫什么呀？” “要是你们愿意，还可以继续叫我泰迪呀，”男孩说，“或者叫泰德也行？” “好呀，泰德。”安妮说

Jack just nodded, he was still in shock. Ted is trading to work in my library at Camelot, said Morgan. He has a rare gift for magic. Cool, said Annie. You, you helped us a lot, Ted, said Jack, finally finding his voice. No, it was both of you who helped me, said Ted. You helped break the spell, and I found new stories to take home. You did? Said Annie. Ted nodded. The story of the Titanic, the story of White Buffalo Woman, the story of the Wounded Tiger, and the story of the Rainbow Serpent, he said. I'll write them down as soon as I get home, so people can read them in Morgan's library.

杰克只是点了点头，他还没缓过神来 “泰德正在卡米洛特我的图书馆里受训工作，”摩根说 他在魔法方面有罕见的天赋 “太酷啦。”安妮说 “你、你帮了我们好多忙，泰德。”杰克终于开口说出话来 “才不是，是你们俩帮了我才对。”泰德说 你们帮我解开了咒语，我还找到了好多新故事可以带回家 “真的吗？” 安妮问 泰德点了点头 泰坦尼克号的故事，白水牛女士的故事， 受伤老虎的故事，还有彩虹巨蛇的故事。”他说 我一到家就会把这些故事都写下来，这样 大家就能在摩根的图书馆里读到它们啦

"'And home is where we must go now, I'm afraid,' said Morgan. "'Oh,' said Annie sadly. "'That's too bad.' "'Yeah,' said Jack. He was sad, too. "'I know we will meet again some day,' said Ted. "'I hope so,' said Jack. "'Me too,' said Annie. "'Bye.' She started down the ladder. Jack pulled on his pack. With a heavy heart he followed. When they got to the ground, they looked up. Morgan and Ted were at the window. They both seemed to glow in the late afternoon light. "'The Magic Treehouse will return for you soon,' said Morgan. "'I promise.'

“恐怕我们现在得回家了。”摩根说 “哦。”安妮难过地说 “这太遗憾了。” “是啊。”杰克说 他也很难过 “我知道我们将来某天肯定会再见面的。”泰德说 “希望如此吧。”杰克说 “我也是。”安妮说 “再见啦。” 她开始顺着梯子往下爬 杰克背上他的背包 他心情沉重地跟在后面 等他们落到地面上，抬头往上看 摩根和泰德正站在窗边 午后的晚光照着他们，两人身上好像都发着光 “魔法树屋很快会再回来接你们的。”摩根说 “我保证。”

She waved and they waved back. Goodbye, Jack and Annie, she said. Arf, said Ted. In a flutter of time, in the spin of a whirlwind, the magic treehouse was gone. For a long moment, Jack and Annie stared at the empty tree. Ready for dinner? Annie asked softly. Jack nodded. He felt dazed as they walked silently through the Frog Creek woods. When they came to their street, the sun was setting. A flock of blackbirds flew through the silvery pink sky. Annie broke their silence as they headed for their house. We had great adventures with Teddy.

她挥了挥手，他们也对着她挥手 “再见啦，杰克，安妮。”她说 汪！泰德叫了一声 时间飞快流转，旋风呼呼打转， 魔法树屋消失不见了 杰克和安妮盯着空荡荡的树，看了好半天 准备好回家吃晚饭了吗？ 安妮轻声问 杰克点了点头 他们安安静静穿过青蛙溪树林的时候，杰克还觉得晕乎乎的 等他们走到家所在的那条街时，太阳已经快落山了 一群黑鸟飞过泛着银粉色的天空 他们往家走的时候，安妮打破了两人的沉默 我们和泰迪一起经历了超棒的冒险呀

I mean Ted, didn't we? She said. Yeah, said Jack. It was like... He searched for the right words. Like... Like living in dream time, said Annie. Yeah, said Jack. He smiled. That was exactly what it was like.

我是说泰德，对不对？”她说 “是啊，”杰克说，“这一切就好像……” 他努力找合适的词来形容 就好像……就好像活在梦境里一样。”安妮说 “对呀。”杰克笑了笑说 完完全全就是这种感觉
