The enemy is closing in.
Luckily, I have an emergency escape plan. It's time to put my plan into
action.
'Bingbang Babbaloo to Boomerang,' I call through my radio transmitter.
'Come in, Boomerang, old buddy.'
'Boomerang is in my plan for escape. My space ship Boomerang is also
a robot that can follow my orders even when I'm a great distance from it.
'Yes, master,' Boomerang's metallic voice sounds in my ear.
'Zero in on me,' I order, 'and hover just above this truck.'
'Will do.'
'A moment later Boomerang is directly above the truck.
'Lift this truck on the ship's crane,' I order, 'and draw it into the ship's
hold.'
'Just as the Burpers are ready to cast a chain around my rear bumper, I
feel the truck being lifted from the road. Seconds later, I and the truck
and the King's treasure are safely inside my ship. I blast away from
Boppo.
'The Boppoian Burpers blast away at Boomerang. My ship dodges one
way and then the other. Bam! Bam! Boomerang is caught in a barrage.
I barrel roll the ship into space to get away. The barrage follows, but I'm
not beaten yet.
