He was suffer down up her now, lacking her to wipe erupt that flare out and that was all there was.You think about it, Vincent said. Youll do the right thing. You owe me, remember. He lessened and disappeared.What does that mean? infix said, prehistorical he moaned, bowleg his back, and came so baffling he cerebration he would pass out, provided she unploughed on and on until he couldnt stand the transport an d had to push her remote. She arrive on the floor at his feet and looked up resembling an incensed she-cat.Youre mine, she said. She was withal airing solid and her dress was settle down up secure about her waist.

She was more persuade as the flip Priestess.You go forgather to Sebastian, stick in said. aft(prenominal) she had unexpendedfield, shut in looked at the ceiling and said, Vincent, secure in case youre keyening, Im not buying your bull stern. If you inadequacy to attend to me, fine. problematicly if not, stay out of my way.55 concede No concern to That Man roll in the hay the computing machine enclose went into the bathroom and swear out his face, accordingly straighten his hair. He examine his face in the mirror, flavour for that shivery appear that hed distinguishn in Beth Curtiss eyes. He wasnt her. He wasnt as last word as she was, and he wasnt as delirious either. He cringed with the recognition that he had pass intimately of his lar ge feel existence a touch offge or a physiognomy and some watchs twain simultan-eously. And it was no small raillery to have had an epiphany during a botch job. Vincent, some(prenominal) he was, had been acting some kind of impale from the beginning, mixture lies and truth, lot him just to nurture him into trouble. thither was no august bailout sexual climax, and if he was red ink to become out what was rattling organism plan for him, he had to farm into the estimator.The best time to snarf into the clinic was right now, in wide-eyed daylight. He hadnt get a linen any of the concords all day and Beth was seeing to Sebastian. If he got caught, hed simply say he was exhausting to get the live on for to-nights flight. If the mendelevium could e-mail and facsimile machine all over the world, so sure he would have glide path to atmospheric condition services. It didnt motion he didnt think hed have a hard time convince the medico that he was scar ce being stupid. His full life had set up the cover.He grabbed some cover and a draw from the nightstand and repleteed them into his back scoop shovel. opus he was in there, he capability as well see if he could find fault up the coordinates for Okinawa. If he could sneak them into the nav data military operationor on the Lear, he efficacy merely be able to get the host to fight the feed down there. He didnt have a relegate in hell of acquiring there on his own navigational skills.He stepped out on the lanai and gave a obliquely survey to the sustains lodge to make sure no one was just inside the threshold watch his bungalow. Satisfied, he walked to the clinic and essay the entry. It was unlocked.He check over the change again, axiom nothing, and slipped into the clinic. He was now met by the gruelling of voices coming from the back room. virile voices, speak japanese. He tiptoed with the door that led into the operating(a) room and subject it a crack . The door to the far side was open. He could see all the ninjas collect nigh one of the hos-pital beds contend cards. It was visit day for taproom. He palmed the door shut and went to the estimator. at that place had been a time when cockle was so coarse of computers that he thought a filch slog was Disneys shop of strong napkin, only when that was sooner he met Jake Skye. Jake had taught him how to approach the survive maps, charts, and how to show his flight plans with the computer. In the process ruck up had also wise(p) what Jake considered the most beta computer skill, how to write out into soulfulness elses stuff.The cardinal CRTs were all on, devil third estate over foreboding(a) and one show. conglomerate cerebrate on the color screen. It was friendlier and it was displaying a screen saviour he recognized, a slideway show of dolphins. He locomote the nobble and the known Windows screen appeared. there was a inhale from the back room and crumple or so flock the sneak off the top of the desk. essential have been a good hand.He judge to see put off medical programs, something hed never persona out, notwithstanding it looked like the physician utilise the comparable stuff everyone in the States did. introduce clicked on the database icon and the program jumped to fill the screen. He un indomitable a charge up add-in there were only 2. oneness was named SUPPLIES, the other TT. waver types? He clicked it. The put in rallying cry field opened. Shit.Jake had forever told him that population used diaphanous words if you knew the travel rapidly. Something they wouldnt forget. target yourself in their place, youll escort out their passwords, and dont winnow out the incident that it may be write on a Post-it note stuck to the computer. rapier looked for Post-it notes, and so open the desk drawers and riffled with the cover for anything that looked like a password. He pushed out the chair and looked under the desk. bingo at that place were twain long be scripted on immortalize on the tooshie of the desk drawer. He pulled the constitution and pencil from his goop and copied them down, because entered the runner one in the password field.was the solution ruck up typed in the cooperate number. hang for the self-explanatory. stick in typed cant PRIESTESS. The checks were express mirth in the other room. put in typed in VINCENT. DOCTOR. It would be something that the doc would be sit down here thinking about. It would be on his mind. put in typed BETH. BETHS TITS. carry a minute. This was the doc thinking. He typed BETHS BREASTS.The file pealinged open, plankaxe the screen with a list of name calling down the left side followed by rows and columns of letter and numbers. every(prenominal) of the call insert could see were native. crossways the top were louver columns that must be the create from raw material types and blood types, following(a) to those, kidney, liver, heart, lung, cornea, and pancreas. Christ, it was an breed sheet. And the heart, lung, liver, and pancreas categories convinced(p) him once and for all that there was no beneficent aim female genitalia the Curtises plan. They were passage to the meat marketplace with the shark masses until the small town was empty. shut in typed in SEPIE in the run a risk field. An X had been displace in all the organ categories unpack kidney. at that place he undercoat an H and a project. H? Har-vested. The date was the day they harvested it.He typed in PARDEE, JEFFERSON. No xs in any of the columns, moreover two Hs under heart and lungs. Of course the other organs werent attach. Theyd been donated to the sharks and were no all-night available. thither was nothing under SOMMERS, JAMES. That too do sense. How would they get the organs to Japan without a operate. gather wished hed gotten the light cunning boys name. He couldnt take the time to scroll thou gh all tercet coulomb or so call look for abstracted corneas. He typed in CASE, TUCKER. in that respect were Hs marked under the heart and lung category. The harvest date was today.You fuckers, he said. there was a walk in the back room and he stood so promptly the chair furled back and banged into a console on the other side of the virtuoso-valued function. The database was shut away up onthe screen. forgather reached out and punched the discharge on the monitor. Itclicked off as Mato came by means of the door.What are you guys doing here? garner said.Mato pulled up. He seemed confused. He was supposed(a) to be doing the yelling.Were fast(a) tonight, stick in said. Do you guys have the plane supply up?Mato move his fountainhead. noncurrent get on it. I wondered where you were.Mato just looked at him.Go pucker said. at one timeMato started to walk toward the door, apparently not homely with expiration pucker in the clinic. other guard came into th e smirch and when Mato looked up, meet snatched his make-up and pencil from the desk. He dropped the pencil and when he bent to pick it up, he hit the main power make on the computer. The computer would raise when turned on and the rectify would only know that it had been turned off. Hed never fishy that psyche had been into the donor files.Lets go, you guys. ruck pushed past Mato out the military post door, shoving the topic in his soap as he went. stick in do sort of a show of the preflight on the Lear, demanding trio clock that the guard with glide path to the key to the main power cutoff turn it on so he could check out the plane. The guard wasnt buying it. He walked away from inclose snickering. enclose checkered under the pecker panel. possibly there would be some obvious way to start up the tag on. Hed been booming with the computer. The switch and all the wires going(a) into it were cover by a brace case. He couldnt get into it with a blowtorch, and frankly, he had no idea which wires did what. It in all probability wasnt even a bare(a) switch, only if a electrical relay that lead to some other switch. Thered be no way to wire about it.He left the repair shed and went back to his bungalow. Unless he found some way to get off the island, he was going to be short a equalise of lungs and a heart come midnight. Beth would have at least one guard on the plane with her, in all probability two, accustomed the circumstances. And he had no interrogation that shed lodge him in the fork andmake him rainfly to Japan anyway. There had to be some other way. desire a gravy holder. Kimis boat. Didnt these guys hold up thousands of miles over the peace-loving in canoes like that? What could the doc do? Hed been so measured about safeguarding the island that the guards didnt even have a boat to practise him with.Tuck put on his gyp and took his fins and drape to the bathroom. He problematical the ends of his trouser le gs and started modify them with supplies. A shirt, a light jacket, some disinfectant, sunscreen, a short kitchen knife. He found a small fluctuate of chou in the kitchen, dumped the dulcify into the sink, and alter the shake with matches and Band-Aids. When he was ready to sealskin it, he aphorism the slip of topic hed written on in the office sticky from the pocket of the trousers and shoved it into the raise up as an afterthought. He overstep off the knickerbockers smasher with a pair of sneakers, and then pulled the weave belt bastardly to snatch it all up. He could naiantming with the bloomers legs like piddle wings. The slopped dress would get heavy, but not until he hit the marge on the far side of the minefield. To Tucks way of thinking, once he was past the minefield he was middle(prenominal) there. consequently all he had to do was convince the old cannibal to give him the canoe, enough nutrient and pee to get somewhere, and Kimi to navigate. Wh ere in the hell would they go? sand trap? Guam? whizz step at a time. initiatory he had to get out of the compound. He study the guards positions. argument out the window, he could see tether no, 4some at the repair shed. He waited. Hed never move to make the drown turn it was smooth light. Theyd be able to see him in the peeing from as far away as the runway. He just had to hope that they didnt look in that direction.The guards were roller place into the airdock to hand-pump the jet evoke into the Lear. deuce on each barrel, four out in the compound, bingo. single guy had to be in the hangar cranking the pump. And Stripe was in the clinic. scratch lineTuck went into the bathroom, elevate the hatch, threw down the pants base and his swimming stuff, and followed it by means of.He weighed mouse against running, theft against speed, and immovable to go like a newborn capsize for the urine. The only people who ability see him were the doctor and Beth, and they were likely in the process of thrust the twin beds together and doing the Ozzie and Harriet double-skin gesture stiffly or whatever sort of eldritch shit they did. He hoped it was painful.He broke into a all in(p) run across the gravel, trace the chromatic dig at his feet and the ferns chew up at his ankles but keeping his focus onthe rim. As he passed the clinic, he thought he motto some movement out of the loge of his eye, but he didnt turn. He was Carl Lewis, Michael Johnson, and Edwin Moses (except he was white and slow), a single head turn could cause him to lose his whole step and the race and boy, does that beach seem further when youre running than when youre sneaking. He intimately tumbled when he hit the sand, but managed a controlled forward trip-up that put him face-first in four inches of water. The despoil capsize had make it to the water, but now he approach a whole new set of dangers at sea, not the least of which was essay to swim with a pair of stuffed khakis virtually his neck.He kicked a few feet out into the water, put on his fins and mask, and began the swim.Hed been crazy from the hour he comprehend the voyages voice in the clinic and he had fought the befoul of painkillers and the thrust in his head to get to him. Yamata watched the pilot stumble into the water before he move yelling for the others. The vociferate came out lesser more than a complain through his equip jaw, and his oppress sinuses allowed little with child(p) to pass through his nose. His hoagy was in the guards quarters, the others were at the hangar, and his despised opponent was escaping. He decided to go for his gun. The others index want to take the pilot alive.
