Scene 16
CountyJail
No opportunities presented themselves before nightfall, so I settled onto my cot to get what sleep I could.
Sometime during the night I was awoken by gunfire in the building. I quickly stepped to the door. “Hawk, Raven, get ready. Something’s happening.”
Over the next few minutes, more shots rang out in the building. Then I heard someone unlocking the door to the cellblock.
The door opened and I heard voices. “The file says he’s in Cell 4,” said a woman’s voice. “Go get him.”
Through the window of my door I saw a man’s head appear. “Step back from the door,” a familiar voice ordered. “We’re here to get you out.”
I stepped back from the door and heard it unlock.
The door swung open and the man was revealed. He was dressed all in dark clothing, with a camouflage patterned kilt and a black sweater and watch cap. He had a bandanna tied around his face, hiding his identity.
As he swung the door open, he began to speak. “Don’t worry, you’ve been rescued by the KLF …”
He never finished his statement. As he saw me, he froze. His eyes took on an expression of disbelief, or as if he had seen a ghost.
“Come on,” came the woman’s voice. “What’s taking so long? Let’s move.”
She stepped into the doorway to look at what her male companion was staring at. She was masked as he was.
Her eyes widened in shocked recognition when she saw me. “David?” she gasped.
I’m not sure what I expected, but it certainly wasn’t her next action.
She bolted across the floor and threw herself into my arms. With one hand she pulled down her mask and with the other she pulled my head down to hers, planting a kiss on me that was desperate in its intensity.
We're fools whether we dance or not, so we might as well dance. - Japanese Proverb
