“Into your cars, guys. Follow them!” roared Entoryua.

Although the fog cleared somewhat, the policemen still had to grope and fumble for their cars.

Then, the earth shook. Gusts blew through the fog.

“What now? Everybody, shake a leg. I’ve got a feeling it’s about to get a lot more complicated around here.”

Before the policemen could depart, a chorus of rhythmic footsteps rang in their ears.

“Stop. All of you!” boomed a powerful voice. “We will shoot anyone who moves.”

“We’re police!” answered Entoryua. “In the middle of a pursuit!”

“Police or not, we will shoot you.”

A horde of men clad in the greenish-brown uniforms of the United Mankind surged into the fog, looking through the police cars.

“We were told you’re working with one of ours?”

Kite saluted. “Military Police Captain Kite. May I ask who you are?”

“Lieutenant Sleet. Did the Abh come this way?”

“She got away,” Kite admitted.

“Got away? From this many police?”

“They were useless — lapdogs to the slave democrats.”

Realizing his automatic translator was still on, Kite switched it off. Although the Clasbul police couldn’t understand the rest of the conversation, Entoryua had a bad feeling about it.

“Inspector,” Kite said with a fake smile, “I’m afraid we’re going to have to pursue the Abh.”

Entoryua grunted and started to get into his car.

“No, Inspector. You won’t be coming. We’re commandeering your vehicles.”

“What?”

“We’re taking the cars, and we’ll also need to borrow your drivers.”

“Under whose authority?”

“Mine,” replied Sleet, shoving the barrel of his gun into Entoryua’s cheek. “Please excuse us; we’re really in a hurry.”

“Yes. Maybe we should bring the inspector with us, to be our guide. One more thing.” Kite smirked, clearly enjoying this role reversal. “I’d like my weapon back.”
