Quote context

[...]

- This was peculiar. But this was adventure.

- Bobby followed Mr. Carpenter...

- And what he saw couldn't have been a dream... it was too real. But it couldn't have been true, either... it was too deliciously frightful.

- Dream or not, it was filled with darkness, stung by staccato flashes from a genuine Boy Scout flashlight...

- Flashes that activated a giant robot into knocking out his guards, so that Mr. Carpenter from the boardinghouse could get into the shed the Army had built around the spaceship.

- And dream or not, Bobby saw this Mr. Carpenter go into the spaceship.

- And then a wave of sheer terror swept over Bobby at last and he turned and ran wildly away...

- The way little boys always run in nightmares, trying so hard and moving so slowly, and all the time falling down.

- It was awful. It was swell.

- When his mother came home around midnight, Bobby was curled up on the sofa.

- Instantly, he jumped up and ran to her and to Tom Stevens as they came into the hallway.
