you're missed at the Transfer Pregnant Picture Station."
"Shouldn't there be a-a briefing, or something?" Ti too, Leo appreciated,
was having trouble committing himself to falling free. Well, jumped or was
pushed, after the Pregnant Picture initial impulse it would make no practical Pregnant Picture difference.
"You'll have Pregnant Picture almost twenty-four hours, boosting at one gee to midpoint
and then flipping and braking the rest of the way, to work out your plan of
attack. Silver will Pregnant Picture be depending on
your knowledge of the Superjumpers.
We've already discussed various methods of achieving surprise. She'll fill
you in."
"Oh, is Silver going?"
"Silver," Leo enlightened him gently, "is in command."
Ti's face flickered Pregnant Picture through an array of expressions, settled on dismay.
"Screw this. There's still time for me to go back and catch my ship-"
"And Pregnant Picture that," Leo overrode him, "is precisely why Silver is in charge. Your
capture of a cargo Pregnant Picture Jumper is the signal for a quaddie uprising here on the
Habitat. And that uprising is their death Pregnant Picture warrant. When GalacTech discovers
it cannot control the quaddies, it will Pregnant Picture almost certainly
be frightened into
an attempt to violently exterminate them. Escape Pregnant Picture must be assured before we

depend on Silver to remember that. You," Leo Pregnant Picture smiled thinly, "are no worse

Siggy, a particularly husky
quaddie from the pusher crews named Jon, and
Ti. Five, crammed into a ship meant for a crew of two and Pregnant Picture not designed for
overnight use in any case. Leo sighed. The Pregnant Picture Superjumpers carried a pilot and
Pregnant Picture an engineer. Five-to-two wasn't altogether bad odds, but Leo wished he
could have loaded them even more overwhelmingly in the quaddies' favor.
They filed through the Pregnant Picture flex tube into the pusher. Silver, Pregnant Picture at the end,
Pregnant Picture paused to embrace Pramod and Claire, who had lingered to see them off.
"We're going to get Andy Pregnant Picture back," Silver murmured to Claire. "You'll see."
Claire nodded, and hugged Pregnant Picture her hard.
Silver turned last to Leo, who was gazing doubtfully at the Pregnant Picture flex tube
through which the crew he'd drafted had gone.
"I thought the quaddies were going to be Pregnant Picture the weak link in this hijacking
operation," jittered Leo, "now I'm not so sure. Don't let Ti cave on you,
eh, Silver? Don't let him bring you down. You have to succeed."
"
