Onot pressed the button that Ellert had indicated to him. With a loud humming noise the double gate separated and drew back, leaving the way clear. But when the opening was just 2 meters wide, the gate motion stopped prematurely. For a second or so Ellert was confused and then two things happened at once.

Lights came on everywhere. A high-pitched siren howl was heard. And also the gates began to close again. Ellert realized that something had gone wrong.

"Run, Onot!" he ordered mentally while estimating the distance. Such a body as this was too burdensome, he thought fleetingly. If Onot had not been carrying those important plans… … "It’s your last chance!"

Onot ran. Although his pace was much too slow for Ellert, nevertheless his movement was normal in relation to the movement of the gates. Only a few steps to go—and Onot made it. He pushed through the remaining aperture and reached the brightly-lighted street. Directly before him was a wide avenue that was bathed in the day-bright glare of arc lamps.

"Not that way!" warned Ellert. "Go to the right toward the spaceport—fast! I can hear cars coming, probably the police. Our escape must have been discovered. I wish I knew how it was possible."

While Onot ran for his freedom and his life, Ellert pondered over the new situation. Of course he could leave Onot to himself and attempt to divert the Druufs from their task. It would suffice to get hold of their leader and force him to do crazy things. But how would he locate Onot later if he didn’t remain in the place where he left him?

The high wall of the prison was left behind them as Onot continued onward and crossed the street. Farther along the avenue a moving light was seen and it was coming in their direction.

"Over there that house entrance!"

Onot made a final burst of speed and pressed into the niche, which was much too small to hide him for long. The approaching car was equipped with a movable searchlight which swept the buildings slowly and searchingly. It was obvious that they expected to find the prisoner in the streets already. Therefore they were aware of his successful escape.

"Stay here no matter what happens!" ordered Ellert as he withdrew from the scientist. He immediately ‘saw’ the open police car beneath him and could make out the uniforms. Six Druufs sat in the vehicle with fire-ready weapons across their thick knees. Ellert took indirect control of the car by penetrating the driver’s brain. He wanted to spare the Druufs’ lives where possible but he didn’t have much time if he didn’t want the sweeping searchlight to discover Onot.

The five Druuf passengers cried out inaudibly when the driver suddenly turned the wheel and raced toward the right side of the street. It was fortunate for them that the manoeuvre slowed them down at least to some extent. The spotlight made one more swing before it went out, followed by the crash.

Ellert witnessed it from Onot’s
