person can be arrested for stealing. On and on! Dozens of different types of items! My hair stood on end! The Countess Krak had another collapsible Zanco case out and was interestedly putting one and two of each in it! She came to a case of miniature electronic illusion projectors: moving dancing girls, accessory extraтАФuseful for divorce photographs. She took a dozen. She found a case of emotional perfume bombs that cause people to react with emotions that make them say the required things: packs of eight assorted emotionsтАФCaution: point away from self when breaking tip. She took half a dozen packs! I was losing my mind! These things in the hands of the Countess Krak! Earth might not be a battlefield yet but it sure would be when she got through with it! With savage intention, I rose up, ready to rush out and halt this certainty of future massacres of whole populations. Then, with horror, I remembered the "hypnotic implant" she thought she had given me. It was "You will let me go wherever I want around this hospital and nearby buildings or base. You will let me pick up anything I want." And to it she had added "You'll let me have whatever I take, no matter what it is. You will let me leave with it." If I stopped her she would know the hypnohelmet she had used hadn't worked on me because of the breaker switch I secretly carried. It could bring about my death! For if she ever suspected what I was actually doing, that yellow-man she destroyed in Spiteos would have had an easy demise compared to the one she would give me. I couldn't lift a finger!

I realized with horror that she was going to take those, too! And they were perfectly functional as long as I wasn't within two miles of them! I only had a stungun, a couple of 800-kilovolt blasticks and a Knife Section knife on me. Suicide to go up against the Countess Krak with only those. Maybe if I rushed down to the base I could persuade an assassin pilot to bring his Space Battle Mobile Flying Cannon up here and blow the hospital to bits. And then I shook my head: that might take care of a space battleship but would it faze the Countess Krak? There was only one thing I could do and I did it. I sat there and suffered. She had tricked me. Chapter 2 My watch got into my view as I wrung my hands. It was only two hours to plane time! If I worked fast and accurately, I could at least get her out of Turkey.

I got out her tickets and expense money. Then I paused. They usually issued five hundred dollars to the traveller here at the base in case there were emergencies and he had to come back. I opened the envelope intended for her. A taxicab could cost up to fifty dollars from John F. |
