"Quick, man! Why are they
doing this?!"
"Trying to take the town with them," he gasped. "Conspiracy... half
the town... ran out of toner..."
"Shouldn't we call an ambulance?" Betty asked, wringing her hands.
Prof. Sigger looked back at Alona and with his dying breath said:
"Damn...."
The group stood around the corpse, unsure of what to do.
"Half the town? Probably the police are in on this too, then. Can't
call them," Justin said.
"Shouldn't we cover him up?" Betty asked.
"I think we need to get into that theater first," Ritchie said. "He
said something about taking half the town."
"If they can, we're in real trouble," Justin said.
"But what does it mean?" Alona asked.
"The way they move. Instantly. That's how they kidnap people. They
move them or themselves instantly from one point to another. That's
probably what this guy meant. Their goal must be to take the town with
them," Justin said.
"That's stupid," Tom muttered.
"No!" Alona said. "That's what happened to Prof. Sigger! He was there
one second and gone the next! And that's how they got Kurt!"
"Just what is going on here?" Betty asked.
