"Hey, Nelsen... Oh, Mex... Wait up... I've been looking for you for over three months..." They tried first to ignore the hail. They tried to speed up. But their pursuers still had better propulsion. Nelsen gritted his teeth. He felt the certainty of disaster closing in. "There's just two of them so far," Ramos hissed. "Maybe here's our chance, Frank, to really smear that rat!"
The parabolic antenna mounted on the elbow of Ramos' Archer, swung a tiny bit, holding the beam contact with Paul Hendricks automatically, after it was made. Yet Ramos kept his arm very still, to avoid making the slender beam swing wide. Meanwhile, he was elaborating on his first statement: "... Not like before. No terrestrial ground-to-orbit weight problem to beat, this trip, Paul.
"Senora!" vociferated Ramos with energy, "saving the respect which I owe you, who are my mother, my mistress, my queen saving the respect, I say, which I owe to the person who has given me all that I possess saving the respect " "Well? One would think you were going to say something."
The Bunch was a sort of family. Members of families may love each other, but it doesn't have to happen. For a second it was as if Ramos had Tiflin spitted on some barb of his taunting smile aimed at Tiflin's most vulnerable point. Ramos clicked his tongue. What he was certainly going to remark was that people who couldn't pass the emotional stability tests, just couldn't get a space-fitness card.
She has some business or other to attend to, and it is a little late to be out alone." "Is she going to Dona Perfecta's?" asked Ramos. "I was there a few moments ago, but I did not want to make any delay." "How is the senora?" "A little frightened. To-night I took away the six young men I had in the house." "Why! don't you think they will be wanted there?" said Remedios, with alarm.
"Last night," said Uncle Paso Largo, "Roque Pelosmalos told me that the moment Senor Ramos said half a word they would all be ready, with their arms in their hands. What a pity that the two Burguillos brothers went to work in the fields in Lugarnoble!" "Go for them you," said the mistress quickly. "Senor Lucas, do you provide Uncle Paso Largo with a horse."
In a recess in the masonry, ribboned with glazed copper strips that led to clear globes and curious household appliances, they found what they wanted. Six little oblong boxes bunched together. Their outsides were blue ceramic. Frank Nelsen and Miguel Ramos began to work gingerly, though the gloves of their old Archer Threes were insulated.
They got a few scraps of the stuff to put into the nets which they were towing. "For luck," Ramos laughed. "Without it we'll never pay J. John." "Shut up. Big deal," Nelsen snapped. "Okay. Shut up it is!" Ramos answered him. So they stayed silent until they couldn't stand that, either. Everything was getting on their nerves.
Streamlining, in the vacuum, of course wasn't necessary, either. Now a small, sharp-featured man in an Archie, drifted close to Ramos and Frank, as they floated near their bubbs. "Hello, Ramos, hello, Nelsen," he said. "Yes we know your names. We investigate, beforehand, down on terra firma. We even have people to snap photographs often you don't even notice.
That was how they worked the fabulous generosity of spacemen in the chips on him. Nelsen, Ramos and Hines escaped soon after that. "Three hours left. I guess you guys want to get lost separately," Gimp chuckled. "I'll say so long at the launching catapults, later. I've got some tough guards, fresh from the Moon, who will go along with you. Art and Joe need them..."
