"Oh! Are you, then, the Great Jinjin ?" inquired Tik-Tok.
"I am." "Then your name is Ti-ti-ti-Hoo-choo ?" "It is." Queen Ann gave a scream and began to tremble.

Polychrome looked sober and uneasy for the first time, while Files put his arms around the Rose Princess as if to protect her.

Betsy was worried at seeing her companions so disturbed, but did not know what it was all about.
