Continued From Previous Report The chaotic stream of bubbles spewing from the peak of the volcanic crater showed no sign of easing. Troy spoke urgently into the radio transmitter, “Stingray calling Therminos control – Do you read me? This is Captain Tempest, please respond!” The reply, mired by heavy static, was barely audible, “Stingray from Therminos. Receiving you – strength …
Troy, Phones and Marina were pressed against their seats as Stingray surged ahead, accelerating to its incredible maximum speed of 600 knots. Phones glanced at his instruments, “Rate 6 puts us just under 2 hours cruisin’ from Therminos, Troy.” “Right,” Troy answered, “and once we get there, we’re going to have to work fast.

Inside, Troy Tempest was in contact with Marineville’s Control Tower via radio. “That Mechanical Fish attack was a diversion, Atlanta. I’m certain of it! When we got back, the Manta was gone.
