Chapter 8
As I ran along the shore, I saw something shiningيلمع in the sand. I bent downينحنى and picked it upيلتقط . It was a knife. I showed it to my uncle. 'That is your knife, Axel. You must have dropped it.'يسقط
'No, uncle I did not bring a knife with me. What about you?''No,' my uncle replied. 'I have never seen this knife before. Perhaps it belongs to تخص Hans.'But it was not Hans's knife. My uncle picked it up and looked at it carefully. 'This knife has been here for many years,' he said. 'It is made of steel,صلب therefore it can be a few hundred years old. But the bladeنصل of the knife is roughغير مستو. Someone has used this knife to carveينحت his name on a stone. And that stone is somewhere near here. We must find it.'
The three of us looked all over the rocks around us. At the foot of a cliffمنحدر we found the entrance to a dark tunnel. There we saw two letters carved on the rock: A.S.
'A.S.,' my uncle exclaimed. 'Arne Saknussemm again!' All my doubtsشكوك about our journey disappeared. A great traveler had been here before us. He had carved his initialsمن اسمه الحروف الاولى in the rock to guide us on our way. And I was holding his knife! I forgot the dangers of our journey. I was not worried about how we would return. Now I was filled with as much excitement as my uncle. I turned to him. 'Uncle, I think that something is guiding us on our journey,' I said. 'Let us enter the tunnel and continue to the center of the Earth!'
We had only traveled a few meters, when we came up again a huge rock. It blocked our pathيسد الممر , so we could not continue. We looked to the left and to the right of it, but there was no way past it. 'This rock must have fallen since Saknussemm was here,' I said 'If we cannot break it down, we do not deserve يستحقto reach the center of the Earth!
Hans and I tried to break the rock with pickaxes, but it was too hard. Then I had an idea. 'Gunpowder!'البارود I exclaimed. 'Let's blow it up يفجرwith gun powder!' Hans made a hole in the rock with his pickaxe. We packedيحشو-يعبى the hole with gunpowder. I made a long fuseفتيل out of cloth and laidيضع it against the gunpowder. By midnightمنتصف الليل, everything was ready. I wanted to lightيشعل the fuse then, but my uncle refused. 'Tomorrow,' he said. 'We need to sleep now.'
The next day was the most important day in our journey. I cannot write about it now without my heart beatingيدق قلبى with fear. At six o'clock I was ready to light the fuse. There would be a delay of ten minutes before the gunpowder explodedينفجر. I told my uncle I was ready. I lit the fuse and returned to the raft. We counted the time on my uncle's watch. 'Five seconds more.' He said. ' Four … three … two… one. Now!'
I don't think I heard the explosion. But the shape of the rocks changed before my eyes. A huge hole opened and the sea became one big wave. It lifted us and threw us forward.
In less than a second we were in complete darkness. The water carried us along at a frightening speed. An hour passed perhaps two. We held يمسكon to each other preventيمنع us being thrown offيلقى -يسقط the raft. It was then that I found that we had lost everything we owedنملك. Our tools and instruments and most of our food and water had been swept away by the waves. All we had were some biscuits and small piece of meat. I decided not to tell my uncle of my discovery. In any case, there was no point in worrying about food: we would probably be killed quite soon! We continued to go faster. It felt as if we were falling. But where were we falling?

Chapter 9
We were going over a big waterfall. There was a huge splash as we landed, then we rushed on as before. But now there was a change. My uncle felt it too. 'We're going up!' He exclaimed. It was true. The water was driving us up very quickly. 'We are in a kind of chimney,' my uncle explained. 'The water is rising and taking us with it.''But where is it taking us?'
'Who knows? We must be ready for anything. So let us eat to keep up our strength.' Then I had to tell my uncle that nearly all our food was gone.
He said nothing, but I knew what he thought. We would never see our beloved Hamburg again. As the water drove us upwards, it got hotter. 'Uncle, these rocks are burning hot. And the water is boiling. The rock walls seem to be moving.' My uncle shook his head. He did not want to listen. 'But look at the compass, Uncle. It's going crazy!' It was true. The needle of the compass was going from north to south, and from east to west. My uncle looked at it with interest. He looked very excited. 'What's the matter, Uncle?' I asked.
'We must be in the middle of an active volcano,' he said.
'There's going to be an eruption. And I think it's the best thing that could happen to us. It's our only chance of returning to the surface of the Earth.'I was sure now that my uncle had gone mad. However, I said nothing. There was nothing we could do. We continued our journey upwards. It got hotter and hotter. The water under the raft boiled. Flames licked the walls of the tunnel. We were pushed up with terrific force. We held on to each other and clung to the raft.
The heat was unbearable now. I lost consciousness and my eyes closed. For part of that time I have no clear memory of what happened next. I remember explosions, and falling rocks. I remember the raft spinning around in circles. There were waves of red-hot lava. Ashes rained down on us. There were flames everywhere. My last memory was of Hans looking at me. His face was calm as always. There was one last explosion and then I remembered no more. When I opened my eyes again, Hans was holding me. I was lying on a steep mountain slope. I could see the sky, so I knew that we were back on the surface of the Earth. But where were we?
