　　Chapter 28 ESCAPE!
　　PLANS were made whilst they ate. "Tim, I want you to take the two girls off in your plane," saidBill. "I don't want them exposed to danger here one moment longer than necessary. Andros, once wehave got rid of the two men down in the boats, you are to take charge of the better boat of the two,and go off with the rest of us."
　　"What, Bill! Do you mean to say we're going to leave a boat for these scoundrels to escape in?" criedJack indignantly.
　　"No. I'm going to ask Andros if he will kindly2 remove some small thing from the engine of the otherboat — so that it won't start up when the men want it to," said Bill, with a laugh. "I think it would bea very good thing to leave them here, prisoners, till we report them, and find out whether Mr. Eppyhas bought the island or not. If he has, he's in a strong position, of course, and nothing we say will belistened to with much attention."
　　"He's always buying and selling islands," put in Lucian. "I expect he has bought this all right. He'swell known for that."
　　"You may be right," said Bill. "Do you want to come with us, Lucian, or stay and welcome youruncle out of the column?"
　　There was no doubt about what Lucian wanted to do. He was going with Bill and the others!
　　They all felt a lot better after the meal. Tim set off for the plane with the two girls, who hugged Billbefore they went and begged him to keep himself safe.
　　"I shan't set off in the plane till I hear your motor-boat starting up and going off," said Tim. "Good-bye for the present. Come on, girls. What people are going to say when I land with you at the airportI cannot imagine. You're too dirty for anything — regular little grubs!"Andros, Lucian, Jack1 and Philip set off for the boats. It was decided3 that only Lucian should go rightup to the boats and give the fake message. He was to say that the men were wanted up in the templecourtyard, and give them directions as to how to get there. As soon as Bill spotted4 them coming hewas to leave the broken column where he was on guard, and go to the boats, keeping himself out ofsight of the two men.
　　"Then we'll be into one of the boats in a jiffy, and off and away!" said Jack
