They have all reached the safety of Hell and they all feel like they should do something. They decide that Corrie, Kevin, Chris and Robyn should stay in Hell and look after everyhting while Homer, Lee, Ellie and Fi go and blow up the Wirrawee bridge which is one of the main ways that the Japanese are getting their convoys and trucks through. Homer, Ellie, Lee and Fi head off. Lee and Homer go to a cattle property right beside the bridge while Ellie and Fi go into town to get a petrol tanker. Fi and Ellie get the tanker and then wait in the bush for all the cattle to come. Lee and Homer were going to scare the cattle and then they would go straight for the bridge which would confuse the soldiers. When the cattle come Ellie, who is one of the best drivers, drives the petrol tanker under the bridge where no one can see it. Fi gets out and runs into the bush while Ellie gets the rope and runs with it to the bush. Bullets were flying everywhere but luckily Ellie didn't get hit. Ellie went and got a motorbike that was waiting in the bush while Fi lit the rope with a match. Fi also got on a motorbike and then Homer and Lee arrived on their motorbikes. They drove off in victory and arrived at Corrie's place and went to the shearing shed only to find everyone in sorrow as Corrie had been shot. She was still alive but needed to go to the hospital. Kevin took her to the hospital and sacrificed himself so he was taken prisoner at the showground. Then the rest went back to Hell.
That was the end of Tomorrow; When the War Began but I am now reading the sequel as there are 7 books in the series.
