In a minute he began to clean it. Everybody laughed, for it was funny to watch him. He would take the skin of the wing in his mouth and pull and stretch it as if it were rubber. He washed it with his tiny tongue. Then he washed his fur. You see, Flitter is very neat. With the little claw of his thumb he scratched his head and combed his hair.
Dane raised his head from the shelter of his folded arms. The Chief Ranger was busy with the pilot, who lay limply against the controls. Captain Jellico and Tau were already pulling at the buckles of their protective crash belts. But one look at the front of the flitter told Dane that it would not take to the air again without extensive repairs.
A freakish air current caught the flitter as if in a giant hand, and Raf fought for control as they lost altitude past the margin of safety. Had he not allowed for just such a happening they might have been smashed against one of the rock tips over which they skimmed to a precarious safety.
There's no use going north the devastated area extends into the arctic regions. I'd say west there's some fringe settlements on the sea coast and we need to contact a frontier territory. Now do we have it straight ? I take the flitter, get a Medic and bring him back?" Dane cut in at that point. "Correct course! You stay here.

"You will please have it here next Monday," said the captain, with great firmness. "It is necessary to the proper discipline of my troops."
Can't they tow us? I'll pay for it." Communication was slow, but after an apparently endless amount of signaling, the captain finally announced that the freight steamer was bound for Southampton and would tow the "Flitter" to that point for a price. "Back to Southampton!" groaned Monty. "That means months before we get back to New York."
As for Flitter, he seemed to take not the slightest interest in his family, but went right on with his toilet.
