Back so soon? asks Roo-kai, waking up from his doze.
Accidents have happened! says Terence.
Who? asks Roo-kai.
Little Mystic got tangled, says Terence.
In what? asks Roo-kai.
In sparkly blue glow worm goop, says Terence. He was dangling. And I pulled him down, but now he needs the skateboard.
Can't he move? asks Roo-kai.
I didn't ask him, says Terence.
Why can't Gaius help? asks Roo-kai. Has he had an accident too?
No, says Terence. Surfing-with-Whales has. He'll need the skateboard as well
I'll go back with you, says Roo-kai.
Okay, says Terence. Help me lift the skateboard out of the pullalong.
That may not be so easy, says Roo-kai.
Can we lift it together? asks Terence.
I doubt it, says Roo-kai.
What if we push the pullalong over? says Terence. To make the skateboard fall out.
Good idea, says Roo-kai.
He flies down from the pullalong in order to help Terence push.
Rock-rock.
The pullalong is rocking.
A few people in hiking clothes come along. They are looking for the entrance to the Spray Tunnel.
Hey, look what that kid and that bird are doing!
Should we stop them?
Yeah, we should. Hey kid, stop rocking the pullalong!
I have to, says Terence.
We don't have to, says Roo-kai. Now that you people are here perhaps you could help us lift the skateboard out of the pullalong.
Is it your skateboard? asks a hiker.
And your pullalong? asks another.
Yes, says Roo-kai. Or I should say it belongs to my colleagues who have had accidents inside the tunnel.
Crikey! says the first hiker. Why didn't you say so?
The hikers start running towards the tunnel.
They weren't very helpful, says Terence.
