Somi looked uncomfortably at the fuzzle, who seemed to be close to exploding. "Well it looks like he's kind of busy. Maybe if you try and talk to him when things have calmed down a little... If you wait here you might get a chance to talk to him. I've got to find someone and see if I can help Sturg out." So saying, she ran off, hoping to find Anni or one of her friends so they could go down and try and get Sturg out of trouble.
She wasn't sure where she would find them, so she was hoping the fuzzle wouldn't follow her in case she had to go near the lab.

Dionysia saw Doe leap at the glukkons and rushed over to stop him! When a row of needles from a snuzi shot over her head she realised what was happening and crouched down beside the table where the glukkons were sheltering. A second later Doe said a list of words, most of which she couldn't pronounce, let alone understand. Got him!
Trying not to sound suspicious she laughed and asked him, "Do they all talk like that down south?"

Anni was sleeping. She was lying in a grassy clearing, huge trees rising up around her, towering up as if the sky itself rested on their highest branches. Someone was coming towards her through the trees, wreathed in shadows she couldn't make out what it was. Just before it stepped out of the shadows into the light it began to change shape. As it entered the light, Anni recognised it, her friend, "Nova!" She gasped.
Nova smiled, "You must not give up fighting. You must destroy those who stand in your way!"
"No!" Anni whimpered.
"Yes! You must fight. Then this will all be ours..." She gazed around the clearing and suddenly her smiled turned nasty, "This will be mine! I will have my freedom!" She moved closer to Anni, leant over her, "If I have to fight it from your hands! You will not keep this from me!"
Anni turned her face away, closed her eyes, sobbing. She felt a biting pain on the back of her right hand as the bright world around her faded to darkness.
