himOh, Christ! @@@@@“Then I’ll go out and get himOh, Christ! The line’s out—it’s been cut!” “That honky knows his way around hereStay as quiet as you canI’ll be back for you—” There was another scream, this lower, more abrupt, an expulsion of breath more than a roar “May sweet Jesus forgive me,” muttered the old black man painfully, meaning the words “There’s only one brother left—” “If anyone should ask forgiveness, it’s me,” cried Bourne, his voice guttural, half choking “Goddamn it! I swear to you, Cactus, I never thought, never even considered, that anything like this would happen “ ’Course you didn’tI know you from back to the old days, Br’er, and I never heard of you asking anyone to risk anything for youIt’s always been the other way around “I’m going to pull you over,” interrupted Jason, tugging on the rug, maneuvering Cactus to the right side of the desk, the old man’s left hand close enough to reach the auxiliary alarm“If you hear anything or see anything or feel anything, turn on the siren “Where are you going? I mean how?” “Another room Bourne crept across the floor to the mutilated door, lurched through it and ran into the living roomAt the far end was a pair of French doors that led to an outside patio; he recalled seeing white wrought-iron lawn furniture on the south end of the house when he was with the guardsHe twisted the knob and slipped outside, pulling the automatic from his belt, shutting the right door, and crouching, making his way to the shrubbery at the edge of the grassHe had to move quickly Not only was there a third life in the balance, a third unrelated, unwarranted death, but a killer who could be his shortcut to the crimes of the new Medusa, and those crimes were his bait for the Jackal! A diversion, a magnet, a trap the flares—part of the equipment he had brought with him to ManassasThe two emergency “candles” were in his left rear pocket, each six inches long and bright enough to be seen for miles; ignited together yet spaced apart they would light up Swayne’s property like two searchlightsOne in the south drive, the other by the kennels, possibly waking the drugged dogs, bewildering them, infuriating them—Do it! Hurry Robert Ludlum ?? THE BOURNE ULTIMATUM 135 Jason scrambled across the lawn, his eyes darting everywhere, wondering where the stalking killer was and how the innocent quarry that Cactus had enlisted was evading himOne was experienced, the other not, and Bourne could not permit the latter’s life to be wasted It happened! He had been spotted! Two cracks on either side of him, bullets from a silenced pistol slicing the airHe reached the south leg of the paved drive and, racing across it, dived into the foliage | | 11:47 am |
@@@@@"Goddam, he sure is hungry," Croft @@@@@"Goddam, he sure is hungry," Croft said "What the fug are you doin' it for?" Gallagher askedHe felt exasperated to the point of tearsHe had been saving the candy for over a day, and its loss pained him; moreover, he was vacillating between irritability at the prisoner and a grudged compassion"The dumb bastard sure is skinny," he said with the superior affection he might have used if he saw a mongrel dog shivering in the rainBut then immediately afterward he watched the last piece of chocolate disappear in the Jap's mouth, and he muttered angrily, "What a goddam pig he is Croft thought of the night the Japanese had tried to cross the riverHe felt a shiver work its way through him, and he stared for a long time at the prisonerHe felt an intense emotion toward him which made him clench his teethBut what it was, he could not have saidHe removed his canteen and took a drinkHe saw the prisoner watching him as he gulped down the water, and on an impulse he handed him the canteen"Go ahead, drink," he saidCroft gazed at him as he swallowed with long eager draughts "I'm a sonofabitch," Gallagher said"What got in ya?" Croft did not answerHe was staring at the prisoner, who had finished drinkingThere were a few tears of joy in the Jap's face and he smiled suddenly and pointed to his breast pocketCroft extracted a wallet, and opened itThere was a picture of the Japanese soldier in civilian dress and beside him was his wife and two little children with round doll facesThe Japanese soldier pointed to himself and then made two gestures with his hand above the ground to indicate how tall his children had grown Gallagher looked at the picture, and felt a pangFor an instant he remembered his wife and wondered what his child would look like when it was bornWith a shock he realized that his wife might be in labor nowFor some reason which he did not understand he said suddenly to the Jap, "I'm gonna have a kid in a couple of d | | Friday, December 24th, 2010 | | 12:27 pm |
@@@@@The final
weeks
of the Season seemed @@@@@The final weeks of the Season seemed endlessIt was good to be home, good to be thinking about something real, like Paddy O'Faolain's request for a bigger allocation of peat, instead of what to wear to the next party And it was pure heaven to have Cat's strong little arms nearly strangle her with a fierce hug of welcomeWhen the last dispute had been settled, the last request granted, Scarlett went to the morning room for tea with Cat"I saved your half," Cat saidHer mouth was smeared with chocolate from the eclairs Scarlett had brought from Dublin"It's a funny thing, Kitty Cat, but I'm not real hungry Would you like some more?" "YesMay I eat them now?" "Yes, you may, Miss Pig The eclairs were gone before Scarlett's cup was emptyCat was dedicated when it came to eclairs"Where shall we go for our walk?" Scarlett asked herCat said she'd like to go visit Grainne"She likes you, MommaShe likes me more, but she likes you a lot "That would be nice," said ScarlettShe'd be glad to go to the tower It gave her a feeling of serenity, and there was little serenity in her heart Scarlett closed her eyes and rested her cheek on the and: smooth stones for a long momentThen Scarlett pulled on the rope ladder to the high door to to itIt was weathered and stainedIt felt strong enoughStill, thought she'd better see about having a new one madeIf it brc1 and Cat fell-she couldn't bear to think of it She did so wish Cat would invite her up into her room | | 11:39 am |
@@@@@Where was her breakfast? Oh, no, Pansy @@@@@Where was her breakfast? Oh, no, Pansy was still at TaraShe'd have to take one of the other servants; that new girl, Rebecca, would doShe hoped Rebecca could help her dress without making too big a mess of it She wanted to hurry, now, to get going and get her duty over with When her carriage pulled up in front of Ashley and Melanie's tiny house on Ivy Street, Scarlett saw that the mourning wreath was gone from the door, and the windows were all shutteredIndia, she thought at onceShe's taken Ashley and Beau to live at Aunt Pittypat's She must be mighty pleased with herselfAshley's sister India was, and always had been, Scarlett's implacable enemy Scarlett bit her lip and considered her dilemmaShe was sure that Ashley must have moved to Aunt Pitty's with Beau; it was the most sensible thing for him to doWithout Melanie, and now with Dilcey gone, there was no one to run Ashley's house or mother his sonAt Pittypat's there was comfort, an orderly household, and constant affection for the little boy from women who had loved him all his life Two old maids, thought Scarlett with disdainThey're ready to worship anything in pants, even short pantsIf only India didn't live with Aunt PittyScarlett could manage Aunt PittyThe timid old lady wouldn't dare talk back to a kitten, let alone ScarlettBut Ashley's sister was another matterIndia would just love to have a confrontation, to say nasty things in her cold, spitting voice, to show Scarlett the doorIf only she hadn't promised Melanie-but she had "Drive me to Miss Pittypat Hamilton's," she ordered Elias"Rebecca, you go on home There would be chaperones enough at Pitty's52 * India answered her kno |
