The proceeding took a long time; and it was well toward the end of the work that Powart's handsome yacht swept into the space provided for it in the circle of spectators. By prearrangement this space was next to that occupied by Mona and Fort.
"And so, when I heard of Powart's scheme to bombard Alma, I saw a way to free the poor idiots on Holl! A way to release them from their bondage OUR bonds, Mona and defeat Powart's trickery, and win you all at one move!" The girl was plainly thrilled. Yet she kept her voice comparatively cool as she asked: "So far, so good. But I don't see that you've done anything at all except to kidnap me."
You're thinking only of the gravitation; you're forgetting the centrifugal force." Hafen and Holl, by their daily rotation around the contact as a center were always tending to separate. That recoil was just enough to turn the balance; they'll never touch again. "And what's more," he rushed on, "Powart's shot is sure to miss! The recoil threw the cannon out of line.

Immediately they made captors of all the workers, who had precious little to say.

When she found voice it was strangely flat and commonplace. "Yes, but I don't see how the recoil could separate two worlds as large as Hafen and Holl!" Fort chuckled breathlessly. "Your forget something.
"Thought you'd like to know," he finished. "Hope I didn't rouse you out of bed." It was night in Mona's part of the world, and Billie had come upon the girl just as she was preparing for bed. "Thank you," she said, through a tremendous yawn. "I was just about to retire. Good luck" another yawn "and good " Her voice changed. "Mr. Fort!" sharply.
