Instantly shrill, hysterical, terrified -- that was her totally unexpected reaction.  She said something else in that same high-pitched tone, but Hanardy did not hear it clearly.  For in that moment between his own words and hers, the Dreegh turned.  And his arm moved.  That was all that was visible.  Where did it move to?  The superspeed of the movement blurred...A weapon glittered; a beam of light touched Hanardy's face.  As blackness swept over him, he realised what else it was that the girl had said: "Steve, he'll put you to sleep while that thought about the Dreeghs coming quickly is in your mind..."
