    @@@@@ They appear to be wearing identical
    @@@@@
    They appear to be wearing identical jumpers, and
    although Emery should not be able to distinguish
    colors in this dying light, he can: one jumper is
    red, with an L on the front; the other is blue,
    with a T
    The rip! the girl with the T on her jumper calls,
    holding out her arms in supplication
    The undertow! calls the girl with the L
    And although neither girl appears to be in the
    slightest danger of drowning, Emery doesn't
    hesitateHis joy won't let him hesitate, nor his
    bright certainty that this is a miracle

    opportunity: when he turns up with the twins, his
    previously distant father-in-law will change his
    tune in a hurryAnd the silver chimes those
    voices ring in his head, they urge him forward,
    tooHe rushes to rescue Adie's sisters, to gather
    the lost girls in and splash with them to shore
    Emery! That's Tessie, her eyes dark in her chinapale
    face
    Emery, hurry! That's Laura, with her dripping
    white hands held out to him and her lank curls
    pasted against her white cheeks
    He cries I'm coming, girls! Hold on!
    Splashing toward them, now up to his shins, now
    his knees
    He cries Fight it! as though they are doing
    anything but standing there in water that is only
    thigh-deep on them, although he's now up to his
    own thighs and he's six feet and two inches tall
    The water of the Gulf - still chilly in mid-April
    - is up to his chest when he reaches them, when he
    reaches out to them, and when they seize him with
    hands that are stronger than any little girls'
    hands should be; by the time he's close enough to
    see the silvery gleam in their glazed eyes and
    1009
    smell the salty, dead-fish aroma coming from their
    rotting hair, it's too lateHe struggles, his
    cries of joy and his entreaties to fight the
    undertow turning first to yells of protest and
    then to screams of horror, but by then it is far
    too lateThe screams do not last long, in any
    caseTheir small hands have become cold claws
    digging deep into his flesh as they pull him
    deeper, and the water fills his mouth, drowning
    his screamsHe sees the ship against the last
    cold ashes of the sunset, and - how did he not see
    it before? how did he not know? - realizes it is a
    hulk, a plague ship, a deathshipSomething is
    waiting for him there, something in a shroud, and
    he would scream if he could, but now the water
    fills his eyes and there are other hands, ones
    that feel like nothing but stripped radiations of
    bone, closing around his anklesA talon pulls off
    a shoe, then tweaks a toeas if it means to
    play "This little piggy went to market" with him

    Someone was yelling in the darkIt sounded like
    Make him stop screamingThen there was a flat
    hard whacking sound and the dark lit up deep red,
    first on one side, then in the backThe red

    triumph to the others!”
    “They will not have much cause of triumph when they see how
    infamously I actBut, however, triumph there certainly will be, and
    I must brave itBut if I can be the means of restraining the publicity
    of the business, of limiting the exhibition, of concentrating our folly,
    I shall be well repaidAs I am now, I have no influence, I can do
    nothing: I have offended them, and they will not hear me; but when
    I have put them in good-humour by this concession, I am not without
    hopes of persuading them to confine the representation within
    a much smaller circle than they are now in the high road forThis
    will be a material gainMy object is to confine it to MrsRushworth
    and the GrantsWill not this be worth gaining?”
    “Yes, it will be a great point
    “But still it has not your approbationCan you mention any other
    measure by which I have a chance of doing equal good?”
    “No, I cannot think of anything else
    “Give me your approbation, then, FannyI am not comfortable
    without it
    “Oh, cousin!”
    “If you are against me, I ought to distrust myself, and yet—But it
    is absolutely impossible to let Tom go on in this way, riding about
    the country in quest of anybody who can be persuaded to act—no
    matter whom: the look of a gentleman is to be enoughI thought
    you would have entered more into Miss Crawford’s feelings

    said Fanny, trying for greater warmth of manner
    “She never appeared more amiable than in her behaviour to you
    last nightIt gave her a very strong claim on my goodwill
    “She was very kind, indeed, and I am glad to have her spared”
    She could not finish the generous effusionHer conscience stopt
    her in the middle, but Edmund was satisfied
    “I shall walk down immediately after breakfast,” said he, “and am
    sure of giving pleasure thereAnd now, dear Fanny, I will not interrupt

    The cacophony spun out of control as the crowds swelled through the amusement park in the
    countryside on the outskirts of BaltimoreThe summer night was hot, and nearly everywhere faces
    and necks were drenched with sweat, except for those screaming as they plunged over the crests of
    a roller coaster, or shrieking as they plummeted down the narrow, twisting gullies of racing water
    in torpedo sledsThe garishly colored, manically blinking lights along the midway were joined by
    the grating cartier watches women sounds of emphatic music metallically erupting out of an excess of loudspeakers—
    calliopes presto, marches prestissimoPitchmen yelled above the din, nasally hawking their wares
    in monotonic harangues while erratic explosions in the sky lit up the darkness, sending sprays of
    myriad fireworks cascading over a small adjacent black lakeRoman candles bright, arcing bursts
    of fire blinding
    A row of Hit-the-Gong machines drew contorted faces and thick necks bulging with veins as
    men sought furiously and frequently in frustration to prove their manhood, crashing heavy wooden
    mallets down on the deceitful planks that too often refused to send the little red balls up to the bells
    Across the way, others shrieked with menacing enthusiasm as they crashed quilted bag chanel their Dodge ’Em carts
    into the whirling, surrounding vehicles, each collision a triumph of superior aggression, each
    combatant a momentary movie star who overcomes all odds against himCorral
    at 9:27 in the evening in a conflict that meant nothing
    Farther along was a minor monument to sudden death, a shooting gallery that bore little
    resemblance to the innocent minimum-caliber variety found in state fairs and rural carnivals
    Instead, it was a microcosm of the most lethal equipment of modern weaponryThere were
    mocked-up versions of MAC-10 and Uzi machine pistols, steel-framed missile launchers and
    antitank bazookas, and, finally, a frightening replica of a flamethrower spewing out harsh, straight

    let me be dead like the rest of them had? When Iwas dead, would she hunt me still?
    “Who is the Seeker in black?” Jared suddenly barked at me
    My lips trembled, but I didn't answer
    “I know you can talk,” Jared growled“You talk to Jeb and JamieAnd now you're going to
    talk to me
    He climbed into the mouth of the cave, huffing with surprise cartier watch replica at how tightly he had to fold
    himself to manage itThe low ceiling forced him to kneel, and that didn't make him happyI

    Abandoned
    Who chanel earrings is the Seeker in black? Why is it still searching?” Jared's shout was deafening, echoing at
    me from all sides
    I hid behind my hands, waiting for the first blow
    “Ah–Jared?” Ian murmured“Maybe you should let me…”
    “Stay out of it!”
    Ian's voice got closer, and the rocks grated as he tried to follow Jared into the small space that
    was already too full“Can't you chanel knockoff see it's too scared to talk? Leave it alone for a sec –”
    I heard something scrape the floor as Jared moved, and then a thudI peered
    through my fingers to see that Ian was no longer visible and Jared had his back to me
    Ian spit and groaned“That's twice,” he growled, and I understood that the punch meant for me
    had been diverted by Ian's interference
    “I'm louis vuitton pink ready to go for three,” Jared muttered, but he turned back around to face me, bringing light
    with him; he'd grabbed the lamp with the hand that had struck IanThe cave seemed almost
    brilliant after so much darkness

    "No nets allowed on Lake Phalen," I said, "and

    much for pleasure-boatersAnd swimmers, in close

    The fatigue would be too much for your auntI believe we must not
    think of a Northampton ballA dance at home would be more eligible;
    and if—”
    “Ah, my dear Sir Thomas!” interrupted MrsNorris, “I knew what
    was comingI knew what you were going to sayIf dear Julia were at
    home, or dearest MrsRushworth at Sotherton, to afford a reason,
    an occasion for such a thing, you would be tempted to give the
    young people a dance at MansfieldIf they were
    at home to grace the ball, a ball you would have this very Christmas
    Thank your uncle, William, thank your uncle!”
    “My daughters,” replied Sir Thomas, gravely interposing, “have their
    pleasures at Brighton, and I hope are very happy; but the dance which
    I think of giving at Mansfield will be for their cousinsCould we be
    all assembled, our satisfaction would undoubtedly be more complete,
    but the absence of some is not to debar the others of amusementNorris had not another word to sayShe saw decision in his
    219
    Jane Austen
    looks, and her surprise and vexation required some minutes’ silence
    to be settled into composureA ball at such a time! His daughters
    absent and herself not consulted! There was comfort, however, soon
    at handShe must be the doer of everything: Lady Bertram would
    of course be spared all thought and exertion, and it would all fall
    upon herShe should have to do the honours of the evening; and
    this reflection quickly restored so much of her good-humour as enabled
    her to join in with the others, before their happiness and thanks
    were all expressed
    Edmund, William, and Fanny did, in their different ways, look
    and speak as much grateful pleasure in the promised ball as Sir Thomas
    could desireEdmund’s feelings were for the other twoHis
    father had never conferred a favour or shewn a kindness more to his
    satisfaction
    Lady Bertram was perfectly quiescent and contented, and had no
    objections to makeSir Thomas engaged for its giving her very little
    trouble; and she assured him “that she was not at all afraid of the
    trouble; indeed, she could not imagine there would be anyNorris was ready with her suggestions as to the rooms he
    would think fittest to be used, but found it all prearranged; and
    when she would have conjectured and hinted about the day, it appeared
    that the day was settled tooSir Thomas had been amusing
    himself with shaping a very complete outline of the business; and as
    soon as she would listen quietly, could read his list of the families to
    be invited, from whom he calculated, with all necessary allowance
    for the shortness of the notice, to collect young people enough to
    form twelve or fourteen couple: and could detail the considerations
    which had induced him to fix on the 22nd as the most eligible day
    William was required to be at Portsmouth on the 24th; the 22nd
    would therefore be the last day of his visit; but where the days were
    so few it would be unwise to fix on any earlierNorris was
    obliged to be satisfied with thinking just the same, and with having
    been on the point of proposing the 22nd herself, as by far the best
    day for the purpose
    The ball was now a settled thing, and before the evening a proclaimed
    thing to all whom it concerned

    Their comments revolved around names I didn't know and nicknames for places and things that
