Anni knew about Buddy, and she had the book he had made with a list of all the times he'd tried to escape. "Don't worry, Kix. I wouldn't try to escape now Stivik's gone. And I would tell you if I did. It'd be a lot quicker to go to the kitchen, and I don't like those vykker's robots. Anyway, do you know how to control them? You and Dean can go to the kitchen now, and get some rubber pipe or something, and when we see Somi she can show us to the tower and we can set up a pipe from there to here so there's always water." She was getting a bit excited by her ideas now. "And if we can find a pump or something to put on the end of the pipe, we can leave the water on at the tower all the time and only turn it on when we need it. If we tlk to Arnie, I think he'd get someone to help us!"

Somi was currently on her way upstairs, rather more slowly than she would have liked, because having Sturg with her meant she couldn't just climb her web and go up that way. So they were winding their way up slowly in the wrecked part at the back of Rupture Farms. Somi was planning to look in the R+R and have a quick glance in the grinders. "Almost at the top now," She called cheerfully to the meech behind her.
