‘I read about them back at the FlyBy. They can’t swim long distances. They’re too heavy and their legs are made for walking more than swimming. And there are babies. It looks like a family.’

Before Valentina knew what was happening Addie had hit the auto-pilot override button. ‘Drive the pod down to them,’ said Addie. ‘I’ll use the pod-rope and ice pick to jump down onto the ice floe and ram the pick into the ice. The other end is attached to the pod so you can pull us to shore.’

‘Are you crazy?’ said Valentina. ‘You can’t go near those things. And we don’t have time for this.’

But Addie was already opening the hatch. She held the ice pick and rope in her hand and she was getting ready to jump. I’d better land on the ice floe, thought Addie. Humans can’t survive in that cold, purple sea.

She waited until the pod was directly above the ice floe. She took a deep breath.

One, two, three . . . Jump!
