CHAPTER 19
Meanwhile upstairs Marty and Snowthy ran into a very bad situation. They had just reached the bottom of the stairs and were planning on sneaking Sgt Floyd outside to the protection of the police when they ran into Super and Baba who got the drop on them with water pistols filled with ink.
"Don't move or we'll let you have it right between the eyes," threatened Baba.
Marty and Snowthy knew they had no choice and poor Sgt Floyd was sobbing with renewed despair.
The two villains led the trio along at gun point to the entrance to the secret laboratory.
"Look Super," cried Baba. "The door is open."
"So your partner has discovered my lab," mused Super. "Well we shall all descend very quietly and take her by surprise."
And so saying, he and Baba took flashlights out of their pockets and made Marty and the others move down ahead of them as they followed the beams of the torches illuminating the steps. "But remember," he warned them. "Not a sound from any of you or you'll get squirted with ink." The ink-pistols in their other hands pointed at the backs of their heads menacingly.
Marty carefully led Sgt Floyd downwards with his hand in hers while Snowthy followed right behind them. Marty gritted his teeth. He had taken a liking to poor Sgt Floyd and swore to himself that somehow they would overcome Super and Baba and set her free. She was too nice a person to be treated in this nasty manner. He formulated one prospective plan after another as they followed the way that Kendra and Piggy had already taken. Could they come up with a foolproof way to outsmart the baddies?
