And then suddenly the alarm stopped; and the red lights stopped flashing。 Everyone was silent。 Fletcher straightened and sighed。

Harry said; 〃I thought you got that fixed…〃

〃…Shhh。〃

They heard the soft repetitive pong! of the sonar impulses。 Tina cupped her hands over the headphones; frowning; concentrating。

Nobody moved or spoke。 They stood tensely; listening to the sonar as it echoed back。

Barnes said quietly to the group; 〃A few minutes ago; we got a signal。 From outside。 Something very large。〃

Finally Tina said; 〃Im not getting it now; sir。〃 〃Go passive。〃

〃Aye aye; sir。 Going passive。〃

The pinging sonar stopped。 In its place they heard a slight hiss。 Tina adjusted the speaker volume。

〃Hydrophones?〃 Harry said quietly。

Barnes nodded。 〃Polar glass transducers。 Best in the world。〃

They all strained to listen; but heard nothing except the undifferentiated hiss。 To Norman it sounded like tape noise; with an occasional gurgle of the water。 If he wasnt so tense; he would have found the sound irritating。

Barnes said; 〃Bastards clever。 Hes managed to blind us; cover all our ports with goo。〃

〃Not goo;〃 Beth said。 〃Eggs。〃

〃Well; theyre covering every damn port in the habitat。〃 The hissing continued; unchanging。 Tina twisted the ''208'' hydrophone dials。 There was a soft continuous crackling; like cellophane being crumpled。

〃Whats that?〃 Ted said。

Beth said; 〃Fish。 Eating。〃

Barnes nodded。 Tina twisted the dials。 〃Tuning it out。〃 They again heard the undifferentiated hiss。 The tension in the room lessened。 Norman felt tired and sat down。 Harry sat next to him。 Norman noticed that Harry looked more thoughtful than concerned。 Across the room; Ted stood near the hatch door and bit his lip。 He looked like a frightened kid。

There was a soft electronic beep。 Lines on the gas…plasma screens jumped。

Tina said; 〃I have a positive on peripheral thermals。〃

Barnes nodded: 〃Direction?〃

〃East。 ing。〃

They heard a metallic clank! Then another clank!

〃Whats that?〃

〃The grid。 Hes hitting the grid。〃

〃Hitting it? Sounds like hes dismantling it。〃

Norman remembered the grid。 It was made of three…inch pipe。

〃A big fish? A shark?〃 Beth said。

Barnes shook his head。 〃Hes not moving like a shark。 And hes too big。〃

Tina said; 〃Positive thermals on in…line perimeter。 Hes still ing。〃

Barnes said; 〃Go active。〃

The pong! of the sonar echoed in the room。

Tina said; 〃Target acquired。 One hundred yards。〃

〃Image him。〃

〃FAS on; sir。〃
