In seconds he was hidden by a thick blue haze, shot with jagged purple lightnings. & beneath the toadstool the spectacled worm was rearing up, his goggled head held high, weaving hypnotically.

   She sat up. She was sitting on Rap. Feebly he wriggled out from under her & held out a glittering needle. 
   "Take this," he gasped. "It's the anti-accelerator"
