The noise of waiters and plates bouncing down the stairs was tremendous. Finally, the penguins heard the sound of one last big silver plate clonking into someone at the bottom. Then there was silence.

“I think that was the last of them,” said Splash.

PING. The elevator door opened. A waiter stepped out, carrying his platter nervously over his head.

“Using the elevator?” Fuzz said. “Naughty, naughty.” He chopped the startled waiter at the knees and knocked him to the ground. “That was the last of them.”

“The emperor’s going to be madder than an electric eel when he sees this mess,” said Splash.

“Good,” said Captain Krill. “I don’t like cheaters.”

“Who cheated?” said Fuzz. He looked at the groaning waiter by his feet. “Okay, this waiter cheated by taking the elevator. But that’s a stupid rule, anyway.”

“Remember all those pictures of the emperor posing with the Golden Galaxy Goblet?” said the captain. “It made me wonder . . . how does he win the goblet every single year?”

“By flying really well?” said Fuzz.

“By cheating!” Splash exclaimed.

“The emperor poisoned this food to make sure he’d win the race today,” Captain Krill said. “Thanks to the Space Penguins, this is going to be the first fair Superchase Space Race in a very long time.”
