Ben ignored them. He had to get his soldier out of that
jungle and there were creatures everywhere. He needed to
concentrate. He felt hot - sweltering hot. It felt as though
he was in the jungle!
POW!
A blast from one of the creatures narrowly missed the
soldier’s head.
“Ha! Ha!” said Ben.
He shut his eyes for a second. His head was
pounding. Then suddenly he felt really weird. He’d have to
stop, just for a minute.
“Come away from that computer!” Uncle Jim was
calling. “Remember what I warned you about!”
Ben felt as though he was falling off the chair. What
was happening? The room went dark. Then it went quiet.
Then suddenly Ben realised he was lying on the floor!
Something weird had happened. It wasn’t the floor he
was lying on. It was damp grass. He was surrounded by
giant trees with swaying branches. He was outside!
