@@@@@It would be quicker to get up and
walkShe @@@@@It would be quicker to get up and walkShe wouldn't feel like such a fool, eitherBut she might fall again, and this time twist her ankle or somethingThen she'd be helpless until someone found herNo matter what she had to do, anything was better than lying alone and helpless and lostWhere was a wall? There had to be one here someplace, she felt as if she'd crawled halfway to JonesboroPanic brushed past herSuppose the darkness never lifted, suppose she just kept on crawling and crawling forever without reaching anything? Stop it! she told herself, stop it right nowHer throat was making strangled noisesShe struggled to her feet, made herself breathe slowly, made her mind take command of her racing heartShe was Scarlett O 'Hara, she told herselfShe was at Tara, and she knew every foot of the place better than she knew her own handSo what if she couldn't see four inches in front of her? She knew what was there; all she had to do was find itAnd she'd do it on her feet, not on all fours like a baby or a dogShe lifted her chin and squared her thin shouldersThank God no one had seen her sprawled in the dirt or inching along over it, afraid to get up Never in all her life had she been beaten, not by old Sherman's army, not by the worst the carpetbaggers could doNobody, nothing could beat her unless she let them, and then she'd deserve it The very idea of being afraid of the dark, like some cowardly cry-baby! I guess I let things get me down as far as a person can go, she thought with disgust, and her own scorn warmed herI won't let it happen again, ever, no matter what comesOnce you get down all the way, the road can only go upIf I messed up my life, I'll clean up the messWith the coal scuttle held in front of her Scarlett walked forward with firm stepsAlmost at once the tin bucket clanged against somethingShe laughed aloud when she smelled the sharp resinous odor of fresh cut pine | | Friday, December 24th, 2010 | | 6:35 pm |

@@@@@Without anything being said, they all were @@@@@Without anything being said, they all were waryThey roused themselves from their fatigue, alerted their dulled senses, even restored to some extent a necessary delicate control of their limbsThey were careful where they placed their feet, and they lifted their legs at each step, and set them down firmly, trying to make no noiseThey were all acutely conscious of the silence in the valley, and started at unexpected rustles, halted every time an insect began its chirpingTheir tension increasedThey expected something to happen, and their mouths became dry, their heartbeats pounded high in their chests It was only a few hundred yards from the place where Croft had studied the valley to the approaches of the pass, but the route Martinez took was more than half a mileIt took them a long time to circle around, perhaps half an hour, and their alertness diminishedThe men in the rear of the column had to wait minutes at a time, and then jog forward on the half-run to keep up with the rest of the platoonIt was trying, it was exhausting, and it grated on themTheir fatigue became alive again, and throbbed in their backs, in the exhausted hamstrings of their thighsThey would stand in a partial crouch, waiting for the signal to move ahead, their packs resting cruelly on their shouldersThe sweat would run into their eyes, and their eyes would tearThey lost the fine edge of their tension, became surlyA few of them began to grumble, and in one of the longer halts Wilson stopped to relieve himselfThey began to move while he was still occupied and the column was confusedThe men in the rear whispered up the file to halt the leaders, and for a minute or so men were moving back and forth and whispering to each otherWhen Wilson was ready, they advanced again, but discipline was brokenAlthough none of the men talked aloud, the sum of their whispers, their decreased caution in walking, added up to a detectable murmur of soundOccasionally Croft would give a hand signal to be silent, but it did not have enough effect They reached the cliffs at the base of Mount Anaka, and bore to the left again, darting toward the pass from rock to rockThey reached a place where there was no defilade; an open field, a cove of the larger valley extended for a hundred yards to the first saddle in the passThere was nothing to do but walk across itHearn and Croft squatted behind a ledge and discussed their strategy "We got to divvy up into the two squads, Lootenant, and have one of them go across the field while the other cove | | Saturday, December 18th, 2010 | | 6:42 pm |
