After his supper of kangaroo soup, Gork lay down on his bed and almost immediately fell asleep. He was snoring. The noise shook the cave. 'Listen,everyone,'I said.'Here's my plan.' From my pocket, I took my small, powerful laser torch. Because it was in a plastic case,the magnet could not attract it. 'We'll use this to escape from the cage,' I said. 'First,I'll melt the bars and then...' Peters interrupted me. 'I know,Captain. Then you'll use the torch to kill Gork.' 'Use your brains,' I said.'If we kill Gork,how will we escape? We're too weak to open the door.Here's what we'll do!We'll...' Moments later,we were all out of the cage. The crew was hiding among the kangaroos, and I was standing on the bed,beside Gork's head. I said loudly, 'Gork,this is Nobody.' Gork woke up. I aimed the torch at his eye and pressed the button The laser beam hit the eye.The eye went out.
