Deston did not know and never did find out whether it was his captain or an automatic that touched off the alarm. Whichever it was, the disaster happened so fast that practically no warning at all was given. And out in the corridor: "Come on, girl  sprint!" DESTON DID NOT KNOW AND NEVER DID FIND OUT WHETHER IT WAS HIS CAPTAIN OR AN AUTOMATIC THAT TOUCHED OFF THE ALARM WHICHEVER IT WAS THE DISASTER HAPPENED SO FAST THAT PRACTICALLY NO WARNING AT ALL WAS GIVEN AND OUT IN THE CORRIDOR COME ON GIRL SPRINT
number came up. In the middle of the night Carlyle Deston came instantaneously awake--feeling with his every muscle and with his every square inch of skin; listening with all the force he could put into his auditory nerves; while deep down in his mind a huge, terribly silent voice continued to yell: "DANGER! DANGER! DANGER!" In a very small fraction of a second Carlyle Deston moved--and fast. Seizing Barbara by an arm, he leaped out of bed with her. "We're abandoning ship--get into this suit--quick!" "But what ... but I've _got_ to dress!" "No time! Snap it up!" He practically hurled her into her suit; clamped her helmet tight. Then he leaped into his own. "Skipper!" he snapped into the suit's microphone. "Deston. Emergency! Abandon ship!" The alarm bells clanged once; the big red lights flashed once; the sirens barely started to growl, then quit. The whole vast fabric of the ship trembled and shuddered and shook as though it were being mauled by a thousand impossibly gigantic hammers.
