The Escape
Uncle Stylus guided the gently chugging boat out of the bay and into the open sea.

The Interrogation
The light shone directly in her eyes.

F.L.E.A. H.Q.
Snippette was introduced to explosives.

Spike on a Mission
The aeroplanes soared up into a clear blue sky, and Spike smiled to himself as he felt the tingle of excitement in his spines.

Surrounded
"Paws up!" said the enemy hedgehog. "For you ze var is over."

The Drop
Looking down to where the dark sky merged into the blackness of the hills far below, she noticed directly beneath her two pinpricks of light.

The Rendez-Vous
Three bicycles were waiting for them, propped against a tree.

Day Recce
The chateau was a handsome brick building, surrounded by a high wall and barbed wire.

Night Recce
Snippette approached the chateau on all fours, until her way was blocked by a barbed wire.

Picnic with the Enemy
Snippette tried not to mention the war.

The Night of the Ball
The ballroom was bristling with Hegemon officers.

The Secret Room
Snipper waited for the ladder to reach the floor and then climbed up into his secret office.

Winter Carnival
The streets were bristling with hedgehogs, all wearing fancy dress.

Watched
Snipper sensed he was being watched.

Searching the Hotel Room
Snipper swung himself forward and dropped just inside the balcony.

A Rock Fall
A stone grazed Snipper's face and another hit his back.

Back at the Chalet
They exchanged stories as they sat around a roaring fire.

Pursuit
Snipper came to three black windmills, just as described in Van Hogloot's letter.

Pursuit
Snipper got out his lock picking equipment and a pawful of tiny tracking devices.

The Turf House
Snipper approached the turf house from the side, where there were no doors or windows.

The Turf House
Snipper slipped in through the kitchen window.

The Last Chance
Snipper surveyed the enemy H.Q. through his night-vision binoculars.

Attack
The force of the explosion thrust upwards and outwards.

Pursuit
"Follow that car!" said Snipper, indicating the black saloon.

The Far Side of the Moon
They had come 230,000 miles in little more than an hour.

Floating in Space
There was no up or down in space.

The Hibernation Deck
Inside each pod was a sensor; outside was a thermometer.

Earth
Finally, the truth dawned upon her.

The Discovery
"It's life, Pawline, but not as we know it."

Lift Off
The cockpit was shaking violently now.

Wormhole
Their spaceship passed over the wormhole horizon.

Verdis
Every building resembled a flying saucer.

Uncovered
"You're an Earthling!" exclaimed Peridot.

Cerulea
The two Earthlings returned the salute in silence and tried to avoid any eye contact.

Pursued
With Woad on their tail, there would be no second chances.

The International Space Station
Pawline woke at 6 a.m. with the sound of "Mr Spacehog" playing over the loudspeaker.

Breakfast in Space
They ate a simple rehydrated breakfast.

The Space Walk
Pawline carried on with her photography. There would be plenty of time to fix the malfunction.
