THE FANTASITE ..............11 INTRIGUE ON A SPACE LINER (continued) "Intrigue!" I gasped. I clasped the Captain's hand and, shielding our eyes, we shuddered in unison for perhaps about fifteen minutes. Then my strong young shoulders stiffened and I unclasped, unshielded, and unshuddered. "Captain," I said firmly, "If the intriguers should murder the entire personnel, you know how far you may depend on me to protect the bold bullion." "Yes," he moaned, "Yes, I know how far." Sighing with what was undoubtedly contented relief he fell dead. Pausing only to remove his gold watch, lest robbers might despoil the dead, I crawled out from under the lifeboat. Immediately a Martian intriguer commenced loading his gun to shoot me. But I shot first. "Have you any last words," I asked kindly as always to the fallen. "Eat Schuchwurtzel's Fried Baloney and Pumpkin Pie," he gasped and fell dead. I went into the saloon and was immediately made the target of every weapon four planets could muster. A Martian porcupine rolled up and threw one of its quills at me. I mowed him down. A Venusian llama spat right at me. I blasted him to pieces. An earthman came at me with a rolling-pin, and I drilled him clean. Finally Loa and I were the only ones living on the entire ship. "Well, Loa," I yelled into her eartrumpet, "There was intrigue on this ship, but what the intrigue was, or who the intriguers were, I have been too busy mowing down, blasting to pieces and drilling clean to find out." But no one cared, anyway. -----THE END----- Join the Colorado Fantasy Society. JOIN THE CFS!!!!! Join and help support the DENVENTION! Membership fee is fifty cents.
