The Never Ending Quest - Episode 31271
|
Fred felt that it might be unsafe to remain in the vicinity of the desk.
It seemed that it might
be possessed by a demon of some kind. He attempted to carry Astra away and
then up to
the comparative safety of the next level, using what we know as
a "fireman's lift".
He quickly discovered that the seventy-two inches and one hundred and forty pounds of Astra took a lot of carrying. Staggering a little, he made his way across the bridge to the staircase lhat led up to the next level. Why not go down, which would have been a lot easier? Because there didn't seem to be any route leading down. At least, not at the moment. Fred had an uncomfortable feeling that the layout of the interconnected bridges changed from time to time when he wasn't looking. Gritting his teeth, he slowly began to climb the stairs. Somewhat to his surprise, ten minutes later he managed to reach the top, gasping and wheezing from the exertion. He gently laid Astra down, then leant on the side of the structure whilst he attempted to recover his breath.
