But it's not just supplies that have gone missing; hamsters have begun disappearing, too. The mysterious dots are finally connected when a third hamster colony arrives, bringing clues that reveal an insidious plan of annihilation by Hashak, leader of the "scales" and sworn enemy of the "fur." Soon, Hashak will use the Giants' deadly technology and the labor of kidnapped hamsters to complete her secret weapon.
