Pointer the mouse gulped. He was floating over the Minesweeper board while
the human tried to figure out where the mines were. All of a sudden, he was
jerked to one side as the human pulled him across the board. The human
stopped over one point, and lowered Pointer to the square.
"No, you idiot!" Pointer screamed. "Can't you see that's a mine?" Pointer did not want his friend, Steve, the yellow smiley to be hurt. "Get ready Steve!" Pointer yelled. Steve braced himself for the explosion.
BOOM!
The explosion immediately knocked Steve out. Pointer flew across the board and gently clicked Steve's face. "Come on Steve, get up!" Pointer yelled. Steve sprang up, as good as new. The game board cleared, the mines moving to a different spot. Pointer happily clicked on a square, which caused about 50 squares to be uncovered. "Steve, I think you'll be wearing those sunglasses!"
Steve grinned. "I hope you're right."
Sure enough, at the end of the game, a pair of cool black sunglasses appeared on Steve's face. "Yay!" cheered Steve. Pointer cheered right along with him. But their happiness was not to last.
