Damn, we might not make the pickup. And I can hear the
dogs on our trail. I need to tell the team to leave without us and to pick up
tomorrow at the same time twenty miles further north , thinks Loco.
“Razer 8 lagging, pickup 0300, 20 north,” says Loco. He
heads towards the river.
We need to lose the dogs, he thinks, running through
the trees heading towards the river.
“Loco, we’ll wait for you,” says Ghost. I don’t like this
one bit . If he gets caught, both of them will be killed. No way in hell, he thinks. He anxiously waits for his response.
“Negative,” says Loco. He continues through the jungle,
heading towards the river.
I can’t stop now. I need to keep going. I will not allow
them to get to her again, Damn, I don’t know her first name, he thinks,
forcing himself to keep going.
I need to hold on and not distract him. I can hear the
dogs , thinks Claudia, anxiously. Oh, Dios mio, please help us. I don’t
want them to catch us. I rather die than have them rape me. I don’t want to
live if they catch us .
Loco sprints until he reaches the river and quickly crosses
it, praying that the dogs lose their scent. He sprints up the side of the
mountain, finally slowing down from exhaustion.
Loco stops and slowly puts Claudia down onto the ground. He
holds her until she has her feet firmly on the ground.
“Are you okay?” he softly whispers near her ear. He feels
her shiver.
Oh, dios mio (my god), even under all this fear, I still
feel my heart respond to Roberto , ponders Claudia.
She gazes into his warm smoky quartz brown eyes. She nods,
responding to his concern.
Loco peers down at her. I’m so relieved to see that she’s
doing a lot better and is standing on her own , he thinks.
He takes her hand, walks up the side of the mountain, trying
to locate a cave or somewhere to hide until next day pickup.
They go up the side of the mountain about fifty feet. It’s
time for the sunrise and the sky is starting to get light.
We need to find a hiding place quick , he thinks. He
looks around as he walks up.
Yes! Finally, I found a good hiding place. Hmm, I need to
inspect the space. It’s on the side of the mountain. It is concealed behind the
bushes. You can’t see it. This is it, thinks Loco, with relief.
Loco turns and takes Claudia’s hand. He walks into the small
space. Loco inspects the cave with a small flash light and sees that it’s not
real big.
The walls and floor are rock. It looks like it’s a
natural little cave on the side of the mountain. The space is not real
noticeable on the side behind a bush , he thinks.
“We will be safe here. We didn’t make the pickup. The dogs
were on our trail. We will make pickup tomorrow at 0300,” says Loco.
I need to make a bed for her to rest. She’s not used to
this type of pace , thinks Loco.
He takes off his backpack and takes out a thin blanket and
thin plastic tarp.
He spreads out the tarp on the ground and then puts his
jacket on top hoping to pad the ground a little for Claudia.
“I hope this is a little better,” he says. He turns, takes
her hand.
“You need to rest,” he says.
He opens the door and walks in, turning on the lights. He
yells for them to wake up. “Get up, pronto (hurry)!” yells Chavez. “Get the
dogs out. The woman escaped!”
