ONE!” CALLED THE PROFESSOR.

Surely even Max’s uncle wasn’t so cruel as to let Lia suffocate to death?

But if I give him this piece of skull, he’ll find the rest of it right away, and our whole Quest will have been for nothing.

“Two!”

Lia tried to pull herself out of the Professor’s grip. She must have known that her life was in Max’s hands.

Perhaps he’s bluffing….

Rivet’s eyes flashed and swivelled madly. “Scared, Max!”

“Three!”

Max spotted something on the other side of the viewing window. It came close to the glass, sweeping quickly past. Spike! The swordfish’s body whipped back and forth as he darted across the window. But there was nothing Lia’s pet could do. Even Spike can’t break glass that thick.

“Four!” said the Professor. “My patience is running out.”

Max saw another shape through the viewing window, behind Spike. Something huge. Something red.

Kraya.

And suddenly, hope rose up in his heart.

“Fi —”

“Okay!” Max said to the Professor. “You can have the skull!”

Max’s uncle smiled and clicked his fingers at the woman guarding Max. “Give it to her.”

Max handed the guard the piece of bone, and she hurried up the ramp toward the Professor’s platform. His uncle took the glowing fragment. He hadn’t seen the Blood Shark yet. Max saw Kraya’s green stare fix on the horn. But then the monster disappeared into the black depths.

Where are you going? thought Max.

“You made the right choice,” his uncle said. Then he tore the mask from Lia’s face.

“No!” Max and his dad shouted in unison.

Lia fell back on the platform, choking and writhing, her bound hands clutching at her throat. Max’s uncle looked sideways at the Merryn girl. Her body arched like a beached fish.
