George's computer is out of control. The lights in the library are flashing on and off. People are running out of the library. They are scared.

"Quick!" says George. He grabs a stick and smashes his computer. There is a loud bang and it explodes into the air and falls to the ground in tiny pieces.
"He's gone," says Tommy.

Tommy and George leave the library together. Tommy lives in the next street to George.
"That's my house," says Tommy. "Do you want to play football in the garden?"
"Yes," says George, smiling and smiling. "Who needs computers?"
