[QUOTE="The Shaman, post: 2642056, member: 26473"] [color=sienna]“...Amen.”[/color] Paco remains on his knees beside the bed for a moment, the rises and returns the rosary to his trunk. Pulling out clean clothes, he lays them out on his bed as the Italian engineer – [i]Liuzzi[/i] – leaves the bathroom and takes a seat. Paco listens to his fellow explorer wearily. At the Italian’s apology he shakes his head slightly. [color=sienna]“No, no need to apologize, [i]señor[/i],”[/color] the mountaineer replies as he sits on the end of his bed to remove his shoes and socks. [color=sienna]“I do not understand this,”[/color] he continues, pensive. [color=sienna]“I have seen men die before, but this is...”[/color] He stops and runs his fingers through his hair. A bit of what was once Lawrence’s parietal lobe falls onto his pant leg. [COLOR=Yellow]“No! No! You...don't...UNDERSTAND!”[/COLOR] The words echo in his mind. Paco takes a deep breath. [color=sienna]“The...man...and [i]Señor[/i] Starkweather...they knew each other.”[/color] He wants to say more, but he sees blood on his hands, in the skin around his nails and the creases in his knuckles. [color=sienna]“[i]Señor[/i], if you’ll excuse me for a few minutes, I would like to take a bath.”[/color] The Chilean nods to the engineer and pulls a bathrobe from the closet, and walks into the bathroom. Hot water fills the tub as Paco first scrubs himself at the sink, digging the washcloth into the skin of his hands, his face. He wipes the mirror every few seconds as the condensation fogs its glass surface. The tub full, he strips down and gingerly lowers himself in the steaming water. He ignores the soap and washcloth for a moment, letting the heat soak into his limbs. Even as the water turns his skin pink, however, there is a chill in his heart that the bathwater cannot reach. And again Paco hears the man’s voice. [COLOR=Yellow]“You're going to die down there. All of you.”[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
