It was true. The Abraham Lincoln moved away from us. It couldn’t turn back.
这是真的。亚伯拉罕林肯离开我们。他回不来了。
“Sir, are you all right, sir?” Thank God, it was my faithful assistant Conseil.
“先生，你没事吧，先生？”感谢上帝，这是我的忠实助手康塞尔。
“When I saw you fall into the water, sir, I felt it was my duty to follow you.”
“当我看到你掉进水里时，先生，我觉得跟着你走是我的责任。”
I found myself underwater. It was very cold and I tried hard to get to the top and breathe. When my head was finally above the waves, I saw that the Abraham Lincoln was more than one hundred feet away.
我发现自己在水下。天气很冷，我努力想爬出水面呼吸。当我的头终于在波浪之上时，我看到和亚伯拉罕·林肯已经超过一百英尺远了。
“Your life, sir, is more important than mine.”
“先生你的命，比我的更重要。”
It was dark and we knew that we had to stay in the water for the night. We hoped dial in the morning someone from the ship could see us if we were still alive.
天很黑了，我们知道我们必须在水里过夜。我们希望早上能船上能有人发现我们，如果我们还活着。
“Oh, thank you. You are a true friend. But what happened to the ship?”
“哦，谢谢你。你是真正的朋友。但船究竟遇到了什么情况？”
“I’m afraid the whale hit the ship, sir. It can’t turn around.”
“我想恐怕是鲸鱼撞到船了，先生。它不会掉头。”
“Help! Help!”
“救命啊！救命啊！”
“Conseil, my boy, what are you doing here?”
“康塞尔，我的孩子，你在这里做什么？”
No one could hear me. My clothes felt heavy in the water. I felt something touch me on the leg. I was terrified. I thought it was a shark, or even the monster!
没人能听见我。我的衣服很重的水。我感到有什么东西碰到了我的腿。我吓坏了。我认为这是一条鲨鱼，甚至是怪物！
“But why did you risk your life to save mine?”
“但你为什么冒着生命危险来救我？”
“Yes. And it’s moving. Only, it’s no monster. It’s a ship.”
“是的。它在移动。只是，这不是怪物。这是一艘船。”
“I only hope it doesn’t go under the water.”
“我只希望它不要到水下。”
“Did you fall into the water too?”
“你也掉到水里了吗？”
He was right. What all of us thought was a large whale was a three-hundred foot long underwater ship. Ned sat on a platform which was on top of the ship.
他说得对。我们大家所想象的是一条大鲸鱼，是一艘三百英尺长的水下船。尼德坐在船顶上的一个平台上。
We were tired. We tried to help each other swim. The moon came out from behind the clouds and we saw that Abraham Lincoln was too far away. Just then, we felt we couldn’t swim any longer. At that moment, I touched something hard. I thought it was a rock, but then I realised it was metal. Conseil and I held onto it. And then, we heard a voice:
我们累了。我们试图互相帮助游泳。月亮从云层后面出来，我们看到亚伯拉罕·林肯离我们太远了。就在那时，我们觉得再游不动了。那一刻，我摸到了一些坚硬的东西。我以为那是块石头，但后来我意识到那是金属。康塞尔和我抓住了它。然后，我们听到一个声音：
We heard the noise of the ship’s engine.
我们听到船的发动机噪声。
“I sure did and it was a good thing I landed on this. I landed on the monster.”
“当然了，这是一件好事，我在这。我降落在怪物身上。“
“Hey, hey, over here!”
“嘿，嘿，过来！”
It was Ned Land’s voice, but we couldn’t see him. We tried to move onto this strange metal object to get close to him.
这是尼德·兰的声音，但我们看不见他。我们试图移动到这个奇怪的金属物体上以接近他。
We knocked on the ship’s sides, but they were too thick and no one heard us.
我们打翻了船的侧面，但是太厚了，没有人听见。
“It’s me. Ned. Ned Land.”
“是我。尼德。尼德·兰。
“Monster? You mean we’re on the monster?”
“怪物？你的意思是说我们在怪物身上？”
Suddenly the ship stopped sinking. A short man in strange black clothes opened a secret door on the top of the ship. When he saw us, he ran back inside, frightened. Two minutes later, six large men with black masks came out, took us by the arms and took us down inside the ship.
突然，船停止下沉。一个穿着奇怪黑衣服的矮个子男人打开了船顶上的一个秘密门。当他看到我们的时候，他害怕的跑回屋里。两分钟后，六个带着黑色面具的大个子走了出来，挽住我们的手臂，把我们带到了船里面。
The mysterious ship began to sink before Ned finished his sentence.
尼德话还没说完，那艘神秘的船在开始沉没了。
“Help! Help! Help!”
“救命！救命！救命啊！”
