I watched, whimpering, as Killgrotty stared up at me from the landing skid. “You revolting human,” he growled, “you’ve got to be stopped!”

Zola leaned over, pulled off her shades and tried to gorgon-glare at him, but Killgrotty looked away quickly.

“Hey, man, I don’t pick up hitchhikers!” Alfie took the copter higher into the air, weaving from side to side. “You get me?”

“Careful!” I warned him. “You’ll shake off Verity too!”

“Let the fluff-ball go!” I heard Killgrotty shout. “You can’t use her like this!”

“Huh?” I leaned out the window, but could only see his big green fists holding on to the skid. “Captain, seriously, I’m not using Verity like anything!”

“You want to use the Star Jewel to grant your evil wishes,” Killgrotty was saying. “You’ll bring disaster down on us all. Is it worth it? ”

“What are you on about?” I cried. “I just want to go home!”

“Release her!” Killgrotty snarled. “You landed yourself here, and you’ll never get out.”

“Hey, I just had an idea,” Alfie piped up. “A real bulb-over-the-head moment.”

Looking up, I realised our pilot was speaking literally – he was steering the copter straight for the skybulb! It was bigger than I’d thought – the size of a caravan at least, and fizzing with pinky-white light.

“” Zola squealed, and her snakes looked delighted. “Goddess above, what an artistic statement THIS is going to be!”

It was too late to shout any warnings, too late to do anything – even close my eyes. Alfie turned the copter at the last moment so that the right landing skid smashed into the skybulb – with Killgrotty still holding on.
