Tim and Cissie had only turned their backs for a minute.
A minute was all the time Thirteen needed. Subtle application of his TTK (TM) and the child was down the hall. With any luck, it would be some time before Cissie and Tim realised that he wasn't colouring in. Hopefully by then he'd have found Guardian or Dubbilex -- at this point, Thirteen would even have been happy to see Serling. Even if they did tell him off for not following procedure, it would be good to see them again. Then maybe he'd work out what was going on.
Thirteen turned another corner and paused. He'd not kept track of the way he'd come and all the turns were starting to look somewhat alike. Maybe he should go back? But no, Thirteen reminded himself. He was a clone of Superman. And Superman never got lost. Therefore, Thirteen was not lost.
That sorted out, a considerably more cheerful clone set off on his explorations again.
