Wabsworth hit
the red button and hopped back. There was a rumbling and the lift shot up and
straight through the roof of the station. "Our cue to leave," said
the Wabbit and together they loped up the stairs and down the Via Nizza. "Where’s
it going?" shouted Wabsworth. "No need to worry," said the
Wabbit. "I want to know," said Wabsworth. "The Sombrero
Galaxy," said the Wabbit. "Quantum the Time Travelling Train is
waiting to pick him up and deliver him to a suitably hostile planet."
"How hostile?" asked Wabsworth. "You ask too many
questions for an android," said the Wabbit. "Well what about the
station roof?" asked Wabsworth. "The Department will send a
cleanup squad. It’ll be fixed by morning." said the Wabbit. "So it’s
all settled then," grinned Wabsworth and he dusted his paws.
"Except for one small matter," said the Wabbit. Wabsworth looked
questioningly. "The small matter of the Hit Rabit's unpaid
fare," smiled the Wabbit. Wabsworth growled a growl that came
from somewhere deep inside. "Well someone has to pay it." said the
Wabbit. "It was on our shift so it will have to come from your
stipend." "I have a stipend?" asked Wabsworth. "We all
do," said the Wabbit. "And I have to pay his fare," groaned Wabsworth.
"It’s only one euro, 50 cent," said the Wabbit. "So how far is
the Sombrero Galaxy?" asked Wabsworth. "It’s approximately 30 million
light years away," replied the Wabbit. “I’ll get him," said Wabsworth.
