Chapter 11 INTERESTING DISCOVERIES - AND A PLAN
The four sat in the dark and talked over the horrible noises and the weird1 blue and green and whitelights. Anne sat close to Julian. She really was frightened.
'I want to go back to Kirrin,' she said. 'Let's go tomorrow. I don't like this.'
'I didn't see a thing just now,' said Julian, puzzled, his arm close round Anne. 'I seemed to go quiteclose to those wailing2 sounds - and then they stopped as soon as I got fairly near. But althoughTimmy barked and ran around, there didn't seem to be anyone there.'
'Did you get near the lights?' asked Dick.
'Yes, fairly near. But the odd thing was that they seemed high up when I got near them - not near theground as I expected. And again Timmy couldn't find anyone. You would have thought if there wasanyone about, playing the fool, that Timmy would have found them. But he didn't.'
'Woof,' said Timmy, dolefully. He didn't like this queer3 business at all!
'Well, if nobody's making the noises and lights, it makes it even worse,' said Anne. 'Do let's go home,Julian. Tomorrow.'
'All right,' said Julian. 'I don't feel particularly thrilled about all this myself. But there is one idea I'vegot in my mind which I'd like to sort out tomorrow.'
'What's that?' said Dick.
'Well - it may quite well be that somebody very badly wants us out of here for some reason,' saidJulian. 'And that somebody may want to come and lift other stones and have a thorough5 search allover the place - which he can't do with us around. So he's trying to frighten us out!'
'Yes - I believe you are right, Julian,' said Dick. 'Those noises - and lights - they would be enough toscare anyone out of a place. Too eerie6 for words! Well - let's have a good snoop round in thedaylight, to see if we can find any trace of a trickster!'
'We will - but it's extremely odd that Timmy didn't find him,' said Julian. 'Timmy can smell anyoneout of any hiding-place! Yes - we'll have a very very good hunt round tomorrow.'
'And if you find nothing and nobody, we'll go home?' asked Anne.
'Yes, we will. I promise you,' said Julian, hugging Anne. 'Don't worry. You shan't have to stay hereone night longer, unless you want to! Now - let's try and go to sleep again!'
