The guards at the cosmodrome fugitives drove back to the ships ... Residents of the city has long been ready to ... to what happened! The astronaut was gloomy. He visited the colony radioactive. These people claimed ... But who will listen radioactive?

A howling storm did not penetrate through the walls of the dome. And then they heard ... The town is still something that did not work - moving sidewalks and escalators. They shut down on purpose to prevent the escape ... So, in silence, which seemed to space, they heard from a distance - steps ... steps ... steps!

First, far, far away, then closer and closer ... Then came a terrible cry first. And the first volley of fire.
