Luke was impatient. "If the fall didn't break those bottles, I'm sure your
thick head's okay too."
"There's something hard down here," JJ. insisted. He began kicking at the
dirt of the pit. There was a dull clang, and he jumped back. "Ow!"
Luke frowned. "That sounded like metal." He eased himself into the hole and
reached up to help Charla after him.
JJ. was already digging at the earth and leaves of a mound at the center of
the pit. A few inches below the surface, he struck black metal with a smooth
rounded surface.
The dirt came away easily, and the other three joined him in clearing off the
strange object. It was huge  maybe ten feet long and far too heavy to budge.
The thing resembled a very tall black garbage can with fins on one end.
"Let me guess," ventured JJ. "It's Chap Stick for giants."
Suddenly, Luke just knew. There was no flash of inspiration, no lightbulb
going off in his brain. He simply looked at the object, and in that instant,
realized exactly what it was.
Involuntarily, he took a step back.
"What's wrong?" asked Charla in concern. "All of a sudden, you're pale as a
ghost!"
"I think  " Luke began shakily, "I think we just found Junior."
They goggled. Wide staring eyes moved from Luke, to the object, and then back
to Luke again.
Charla was the first to speak. "You're not say-ing - ?"
Luke nodded weakly. "The Discovery Channel was wrong. Theydid build it. And
they left it right here."
This time, everybody stepped backward. J.J. plastered himself against the
wall of the pit.
A harsh reality dropped over the castaways like a smothering blanket. A
hostile environment and dangerous enemies were only part of the problem. Their
friend Will was beginning a fight for his very life. And now, thrown into the
mix by some insane quirk of fate  an atomic bomb.
