Stella surveyed the scene. It seemed hopeless. Broken gyro-plane, vindictive ex-boyfriend, monkey-loving evil genius, surrounded by Chinese-assault-rifle-toting flying simians, and an unconscious pilot – well all things considered that last one was probably a plus.

She needed a Plan, and fast.

Thinking of her own pilot made her wonder how Garth had gotten here. She knew he couldn’t fly a gyro-copter if it was on auto-pilot. Some bounty hunter she thought, but where was his plane?

Dr. Monroe broke her train of thought. “Stand close together, you lovebirds so I can dispatch you both”. He laughed his horrible laugh again.

Stella moved over to Garth her hand finding his. This was no time for old grudges. where your plane she signed using efficient kellersigns they were so familiar with.

behind us invisible latest model he signed back.

braggart lets get out.

He spun her around and they fell into the sand. They were rolling until they hit the plane. A hatch opened and closed. They were safe.

    Well done I don’t know which I enjoyed more her assessment of the situation or the use of kellersigns to communicate. And the invisible plane fits with the fun, absurdity of the series so far.

    This has to be the greatest of the series. Loved the ridiculous summary at the beginning, your writing style, just about everything about it! Great work here.
