Some
time
later
Michael
said
,
“
You
go
home
,
Sophie
.
It
’
s
my
spell
,
after
all
.
”
792
Sophie
had
her
mouth
open
to
say
that
this
was
a
very
good
idea
,
when
one
of
the
stars
came
unstuck
from
the
firmament
and
darted
in
a
white
streak
down
the
sky
.
“
There
’
s
one
!
”
Sophie
shrieked
instead
.
793
Michael
thumped
his
foot
into
his
boot
and
was
off
.
Sophie
braced
herself
with
her
stick
and
was
off
a
second
later
.
Zip
!
Squash
.
Down
far
out
in
the
marshes
with
mist
and
emptiness
and
dull
-
glimmering
pools
in
all
directions
.
Sophie
stabbed
her
stick
into
the
ground
and
just
managed
to
stand
still
.
Michael
’
s
boot
was
a
dark
blot
standing
just
beside
her
.

Michael
himself
was
a
sploshy
sound
of
madly
running
feet
somewhere
ahead
.
795
And
there
was
the
falling
star
.
Sophie
could
see
it
,
a
little
white
descending
flame
shape
a
few
yards
beyond
the
dark
movements
that
were
Michael
.
The
bright
shape
was
coming
down
slowly
now
,
and
it
looked
as
if
Michael
might
catch
it
.
796
Sophie
dragged
her
shoe
out
of
the
boot
.
“
Come
on
,
stick
!
”
she
crowed
.
“
Get
me
there
!
”
And
she
set
off
at
top
hobble
,
leaping
across
tussocks
and
staggering
through
pools
,
with
her
eyes
on
that
little
white
light
.
797
By
the
time
she
caught
up
,
Michael
was
stalking
the
star
with
soft
steps
,
both
arms
out
to
catch
it
.
Sophie
could
see
him
outlined
against
the
star
’
s
light
.
The
star
was
drifting
level
with
Michael
’
s
hands
and
only
a
step
or
so
beyond
.
It
was
looking
back
at
him
nervously
.
How
odd
!
Sophie
thought
.
It
was
made
of
light
,
it
lit
up
a
white
ring
of
grass
and
reeds
and
black
pools
round
Michael
,
and
yet
it
had
big
,
anxious
eyes
peering
backward
at
Michael
,
and
a
small
,
pointed
face
.

Sophie
’
s
arrival
frightened
it
.
It
gave
an
erratic
swoop
and
cried
out
in
a
shrill
,
crackling
voice
,
“
What
is
it
?
What
do
you
want
?
”
799
Sophie
tried
to
say
to
Michael
,
Do
stop
—
it
’
s
terrified
!
But
she
had
no
breath
left
to
speak
with
.
800
“
I
only
want
to
catch
you
,
”
Michael
explained
.
“
I
won
’
t
hurt
you
.
”
