But, we did nab meek mannered Kozak, here. And, he has agreed to help us.'

Kozak smiled feebly. 'I do not wish to work for Murga.'

'You are not happy with your boss?' I asked.

'I am not unhappy,' Kozak said thoughtfully. 'In fact I am quite gruntled.'

 'You mean you are not disgruntled,' I told him and then I suddenly remembered. 'Dr Zhang!' I exclaimed. 'Did anything happen to him? I dreamed he was dead!' 

 Dr Zhang was a self professed genius and part owner of a high tech company, called WongTime Photonics, who had built an awesome computer at my school which he used for time travel.

 'Nay lad, he is unharmed. Theo has him under surveillance.'

'What about Mom and Dad?'

Triple Oh shifted his bulk uncomfortably. 'We believe they are safe also. Murga moved them out of the Tian Mountains and has hidden them in Nazi (National Socialist) Germany about 1944, during the world war. We have many agents and computers working diligently to locate them.'

 'Just like you are working diligently to stop Murga kidnapping me,' I grumbled sarcastically. 'They took me right out of my bedroom. They didn't even wake Pacman or Grandma!'

Triple Oh grimaced uncomfortably. 'Prithee, be not offended. We do our utmost but he is an ingenious and elusive foe.'

'What happened exactly?'

 'Murga's miscreants could not resist stopping for a bowl of noodles at the Haiphong Road Temporary Night Market in 1999. We were alerted when thy arm band crossed the old time nexus under the road overpass. That is our new motto, "Be alert, the Time Agency has need of more lerts." I got that from the girls washroom at Silverwood School.'

I chuckled. He grinned. 'Thou art feeling better?'

'Yes, I feel fine, now.'

'Good. Now that thou art safe, I must bid thee farewell.'
