| 0:00.0 | Chapter 26. The Flying Squirrel was bound by the arms to a bar that ran along the wall of the |
| 0:08.4 | laboratory, six inches above her head. She had been left there in semi-darkness for almost an hour |
| 0:13.5 | listening to the sounds of Professor Zombie's ghouls scrabbling in the shadows. She could see the |
| 0:18.8 | forms of two more men, each of tremendous size, strapped to some equipment on either side of the lab. She could see the forms of two more men, each of tremendous size, strapped to |
| 0:22.1 | some equipment on either side of the lab. She could tell by the pallor of their skin that the |
| 0:26.5 | process that was to transform them into soldiers of the undead army of crime had not yet been |
| 0:31.3 | completed, but she could also see that they were no longer what anyone would call alive. She had cursed under her breath |
| 0:39.3 | at having arrived too late to save two more victims from zombies clutches, and then she had bided |
| 0:44.7 | her time. Kett wondered if the silent treatment was meant to unnerve her, or if her captors |

| 0:54.5 | explosion that brought down the ceiling, fallen hard, and hit the solid floor of the basement |
| 0:58.9 | below with a force that had knocked her cold. She had no way of knowing how long she had been |
| 1:03.4 | out, but when she came to it was with a start, for fear that the fire was closing in. But wherever |

| 1:12.2 | scent was that of the odd funk given off by Professor Zombie's undead playmates. Even in the darkness, |
| 1:18.4 | it was not hard to work out that two of the great beasts were carrying her, bound hand and foot, |
| 1:23.3 | through a series of underground tunnels. These tunnels must stretch right into the basement of the building they blew up, she'd thought. |
| 1:31.0 | I bet they're bringing me home to meet Mama. |
| 1:34.7 | She had resisted the urge to try and break free of her captors, |
| 1:38.3 | even if she could escape those two without being killed. |
| 1:41.6 | No mean feat, as she was deep underground in pitch darkness with who knows how many |
| 1:45.7 | other enemies around. Better to play possum and let them reveal the location of their own secret headquarters. |
