There was no other way he could escape from Zeron.
He now moved out of the long, thick grass. He was standing on
harder, drier ground. There were some thick bushes in front of him.
Behind him, there was the swamp and the guards who were chasing
him. Varon hurried towards the thick bushes.
'I must get back to the spaceship,' Varon thought. 'I'll have to find
some way of tricking the guards. I can't escape from Zeron if I can't
get back to the spaceship.'
Varon took two steps forward into the bushes. Suddenly he
stopped. He knew he was not alone. He dropped down on one knee.
There was somebody near him. His hand reached for the laser gun on
his belt.
