Harriet tries to apologize and explain she is not a stranger, but Iron Jim is suspicious and demands she follow his rules. As Harriet offers to mend him, he begins negotiating, then leads her uphill while warning that no strangers are allowed.

from the sand.  \n-Oh no,she thought.It was bad enough having your plane crashinto the ocean and your parents eaten by sharks;Now she was beingshouted at by a strange-looking metal man.  \n-You heard me.Clear of!This place is private.  \nThe robot was standing on the rocks above her,humming andtwitching.He looked somchow home-made,as if he'd been puttogether from spare parts.Instead of a left hand,Harriet noticed,he had a kind of pincer,and in this pincer was a rock.Not a verylarge rock,admittedly;but it was a rock.  \nHarriet looked behind her at the endless blue-grey ocean.Therewas no sign of her plane.It had seemed to dive straight down intothe water like an arrow.She remembered looking out of the windowand seeing fish,and then..  \nFrom far out at sea she thought she could hear a shark burp.  \nPainfully,Harriet got to her knees and put her arms round herbeach ball.  \n-I'm awfully sorry,she said as calmly as she could,I didn't mean to  \ntrespass.I don't actually know where I am.  \n-You're in Notmanyland and it's private.Nobody else is allowed here,cept me ...And the Dear Ones.But they don't count.  \nThe metal man rotated his left shoulder thoughtfully.It made aloud creak.  \n-They don't count,he mumbled.Only me.  \n-But who is your,um…Harriet searched for the right word.Who isyour master?  \nThe humming got a lot louder.  \n-There IS no master:Only ME:Iron Jim.Get it?Own.Lee.MEE!Iron Jim put his hand to his stiff shoulder and gave it another creakyroll.The rock in his pincer-hand waved around dangerously.  \n-Ihope you don't mind me saying,said Harriet,but you look as ifyoucould do with a bit of mending.  \nShe waited a moment,then added cautiously,  \n-I'm quite good at mending.Perhaps I could stay just for a littlewhile,and then leave when we've got you all,youknow,fixed.Iwouldn'tbe any trouble.  \nIron Jim glared at her suspiciously.  \n-You're not a Stranger,are you?  \nHarriet made herself smile.  \n-Of course not,she said.I'm Harriet Jane Arblaster:How do you do?She put out her hand politely.Iron Jim ignored it.  \nHe carried on glaring at her for a moment,then reached up andgave the back of his head a hard smack.His left eye popped out likea cuckoo from a clock.  \n-Do you mend eyes?  \n-Oh yes,Harriet replied,still smiling.I specialise in eyes.  \n-Specialise in eyes,he muttered to himself.He popped his eye backinto its socket.  \nFor a long minute he stood,silent except for the soft humming.Then at last he dropped the rock.It rolled harmlessly down ontothe beach.  \n-One night.Then you'll have to go.  \n-Thank you,said Harriet.She stood up unsteadily,and picked upher beach ball.  \n-What is that?Asked Iron Jim.  \n-A ball.It's for playing with when you're at the seaside.  \n-Playing?  \n-Yes,playing.You know,games;Having fun.  \nShe bounced the ball on the sand to demonstrate.  \nThe pistons in Iron Jim's upper arms wheezed as he gave a shrug.  \n-Hmmf.I shall have to confiscate it.Follow me.  \nHe turned and stalked off,muttering darkly to himself.  \n-We don't want any Strangers here.No Strangers in Notmanyland.  \nIt was uphill all the way.The ground was rough,and Harriet,clutching her beachball,had trouble keeping up.  \nIron Jim scrambled on ahead,scattering small stones as he went.Ahail of gra","cbCaiexlC9cIXIcM","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiexlC9cIXIcM","pdf",2877964,"English","#
