Scared?
gpt
I was, she frankly admitted.
human
Is anything broken, Tom?
gpt
I hope not, answered the young inventor.
human
At least if it is, the damage is on the under part. Nothing visible up here. But let me help you out. Looks as if we'd have to run for it.
gpt
Run? repeated Mary, while proving that she did not exactly need help, for she was getting out of her seat unaided.
human
Why? Is it going to catch fire?
gpt
No. But it's going to rain soon--and hard, too, if I'm any judge, Tom said.
human
I don't believe I'll take a chance trying to get the machine going again. We'll make for that farmhouse and stay there until after the storm. Looks as if we could get shelter there, and perhaps a bit to eat. I'm beginning to feel hungry.
gpt
It is going to rain! decided Mary, as Tom helped her down over the side of the fusilage.
human
It's good we are so near shelter.
