I
could
not
see
him
any
more
,
though
I
could
hear
him
choking
and
strangling
and
coughing
.
The
audience
kept
a
death
-
like
silence
.
I
crouched
on
the
lip
of
the
entrance
and
waited
.
The
strangling
and
coughing
died
down
,
and
I
could
hear
him
now
and
again
clearing
his
throat
.
A
little
later
he
began
to
climb
down
.
He
went
very
quietly
,
pausing
every
moment
or
so
to
stretch
his
neck
or
to
feel
it
with
his
hand
.
At
the
sight
of
him
descending
,
the
whole
horde
,
with
wild
screams
and
yells
,
stampeded
for
the
woods
.
Old
Marrow
-
Bone
,
hobbling
and
tottering
,
followed
behind
.
Red
-
Eye
took
no
notice
of
the
flight
.
When
he
reached
the
ground
he
skirted
the
base
of
the
bluff
and
climbed
up
and
into
his
own
cave
.
He
did
not
look
around
once
I
stared
at
Lop
-
Ear
,
and
he
stared
back
.
We
understood
each
other
.
Immediately
,
and
with
great
caution
and
quietness
,
we
began
climbing
up
the
cliff
.
When
we
reached
the
top
we
looked
back
.
The
abiding
-
place
was
deserted
,
Red
-
Eye
remained
in
his
cave
,
and
the
horde
had
disappeared
in
the
depths
of
the
forest
.
We
turned
and
ran
.
We
dashed
across
the
open
spaces
and
down
the
slopes
unmindful
of
possible
snakes
in
the
grass
,
until
we
reached
the
woods
.
Up
into
the
trees
we
went
,
and
on
and
on
,
swinging
our
arboreal
flight
until
we
had
put
miles
between
us
and
the
caves
.
And
then
,
and
not
till
then
,
in
the
security
of
a
great
fork
,
we
paused
,
looked
at
each
other
,
and
began
to
laugh
.
We
held
on
to
each
other
,
arms
and
legs
,
our
eyes
streaming
tears
,
our
sides
aching
,
and
laughed
and
laughed
and
laughed
.
After
we
had
had
out
our
laugh
,
Lop
-
Ear
and
I
curved
back
in
our
flight
and
got
breakfast
in
the
blueberry
swamp
.
It
was
the
same
swamp
to
which
I
had
made
my
first
journeys
in
the
world
,
years
before
,
accompanied
by
my
mother
.
I
had
seen
little
of
her
in
the
intervening
time
.
Usually
,
when
she
visited
the
horde
at
the
caves
,
I
was
away
in
the
forest
.
I
had
once
or
twice
caught
glimpses
of
the
Chatterer
in
the
open
space
,
and
had
had
the
pleasure
of
making
faces
at
him
and
angering
him
from
the
mouth
of
my
cave
.
Beyond
such
amenities
I
had
left
my
family
severely
alone
.
I
was
not
much
interested
in
it
,
and
anyway
I
was
doing
very
well
by
myself
.
After
eating
our
fill
of
berries
,
with
two
nestfuls
of
partly
hatched
quail
-
eggs
for
dessert
,
Lop
-
Ear
and
I
wandered
circumspectly
into
the
woods
toward
the
river
.
Here
was
where
stood
my
old
home
-
tree
,
out
of
which
I
had
been
thrown
by
the
Chatterer
.
It
was
still
occupied
.
There
had
been
increase
in
the
family
.
Clinging
tight
to
my
mother
was
a
little
baby
.
Also
,
there
was
a
girl
,
partly
grown
,
who
cautiously
regarded
us
from
one
of
the
lower
branches
.
She
was
evidently
my
sister
,
or
half
-
sister
,
rather
.
My
mother
recognized
me
,
but
she
warned
me
away
when
I
started
to
climb
into
the
tree
.
Lop
-
Ear
,
who
was
more
cautious
by
far
than
I
,
beat
a
retreat
,
nor
could
I
persuade
him
to
return
.
Later
in
the
day
,
however
,
my
sister
came
down
to
the
ground
,
and
there
and
in
neighboring
trees
we
romped
and
played
all
afternoon
.
And
then
came
trouble
.
She
was
my
sister
,
but
that
did
not
prevent
her
from
treating
me
abominably
,
for
she
had
inherited
all
the
viciousness
of
the
Chatterer
.
She
turned
upon
me
suddenly
,
in
a
petty
rage
,
and
scratched
me
,
tore
my
hair
,
and
sank
her
sharp
little
teeth
deep
into
my
forearm
.
I
lost
my
temper
.
I
did
not
injure
her
,
but
it
was
undoubtedly
the
soundest
spanking
she
had
received
up
to
that
time
.
How
she
yelled
and
squalled
.
The
Chatterer
,
who
had
been
away
all
day
and
who
was
only
then
returning
,
heard
the
noise
and
rushed
for
the
spot
.
My
mother
also
rushed
,
but
he
got
there
first
.
Lop
-
Ear
and
I
did
not
wait
his
coming
.
We
were
off
and
away
,
and
the
Chatterer
gave
us
the
chase
of
our
lives
through
the
trees
.
After
the
chase
was
over
,
and
Lop
-
Ear
and
I
had
had
out
our
laugh
,
we
discovered
that
twilight
was
falling
.
Here
was
night
with
all
its
terrors
upon
us
,
and
to
return
to
the
caves
was
out
of
the
question
.
Red
-
Eye
made
that
impossible
.
We
took
refuge
in
a
tree
that
stood
apart
from
other
trees
,
and
high
up
in
a
fork
we
passed
the
night
.
It
was
a
miserable
night
.
For
the
first
few
hours
it
rained
heavily
,
then
it
turned
cold
and
a
chill
wind
blew
upon
us
.
Soaked
through
,
with
shivering
bodies
and
chattering
teeth
,
we
huddled
in
each
other
’
s
arms
.
We
missed
the
snug
,
dry
cave
that
so
quickly
warmed
with
the
heat
of
our
bodies
.
