Chip started to run to the base with everyone close behind but they all stopped in they're tracks as they saw about a million dinosaurs waiting for them, Chip said "OH NO," he turned round, the others had started running, he ran after them. "Hey guys, wait for me!" he shouted to them, they ran back through the forest, over the rocks, on to the grass and into Teds house "That was a disaster," he said, Ted said "I know," "well said Chip, "We all better go home, there's nothing else we can do now, is there," but there was no point talking, because everyone had gone to their beds, "Oh, well," said Chip to himself "I might as well go to bed too," and with that he went home. When he got in, he began to think what he could do about the spaceship, with all those guards around, they're was propable no way in! What could he do? What could he do! With that, he fell asleep.
END CHAPTER TWENTY-TWO
Notes: Poor Chip, trapped in a hostile land with (about) a million dinosaur enemies, with a group of friends all too happy to abandon him without a word, and in a story where multiple paragraphs are the thing of myth.
I'm not entirely sure why ten year-old me seems so dedicated to abandoning paragraphs, but then who are we to scrutinise the thoughts of a literary revolutionary?
