"Why on earth doesn't Carshaw marry the girl?" said Clancy. "I dunno. He's straight, isn't he?" "Strikes me that way." "Me, too. Anyhow, let's pick up a few threads. I've a notion that Senator Meiklejohn thinks he has side-stepped the Bureau." Clancy laughed.
Twice she gave him inviting openings and then punished him savagely before he could get away; then he attempted in-fighting, but her legs were too nimble. And after a while he lost his head and came at her using sheer weight, which set her beside herself with fury. Teeth clenched, crimson-cheeked, she side-stepped, feinted, and whipped in an upper-cut.
He ducked for the shelter of the desk, tore open a drawer, and snatched out an automatic. Simultaneously the cowpuncher pressed the button beside the door and plunged the room in darkness. He side-stepped swiftly and without noise. A flash of lightning split the blackness. Clay dropped to his knees and crawled away. Another bolt, with its accompanying roar, flamed out.
To that pleasant end, he goaded his adversary with a light blow, side-stepped his rush, uppercutted and the reporter went down, almost head first, and cruelly hard. He came up dazed, game but very wild, and Varney got another chance promptly, which was just as well. Hammerton went down again, head on once more, and this time he did not come up at all.
Jack's eyes bulged a little; and if Dade had not wisely side-stepped he would have received another one of Jack's muscle-tingling slaps on the shoulder. "Whee-ee! Say, you're getting appreciated, at last, old man. Good for you! Give me a job?" "I'm not going to take it," said Dade. "I was going to ask you if you want to pull out with me to-morrow." Jack's jaw went slack. "Not going to take it!"
At first I blocked and side-stepped all his questions, but he kep' on at me, an' at last I I give you away, Geoff " Here Spike paused breathlessly and cast an apprehensive glance toward his hearer, but finding him silent and serene as ever he repeated: "I gave you away, Geoff!" "Did you, Spike?" "Yes, I I told him who you really are!" "Did you, Spike?" "Yes! Yes! Oh, Geoff, don't you understand?"
The town evidently was reconnoitering. So they side-stepped the swamp and resumed their own noisy route. They did not stop again that night; they rested at day-break, long enough to eat a few mouthfuls; all that day they rode, and all the night again; with the morning they had arrived upon the bank of the Ohio. They had left a trail plain enough for a five-year-old child to follow.
"Now, Mallow, you and I alone, with no one to jump on my back when I'm looking elsewhere!" Mallow, appreciating the trick, swore foully, and rushed. Warrington jabbed with his left and side-stepped. One thing he must do and that was to keep Mallow from getting into close quarters.
Whatever it was it was there inside the ring with him and very close. Danny's earlier surety seemed returned to him. The confidence of his advance frightened Rivera. Some trick was about to be worked. Danny rushed, but Rivera refused the encounter. He side-stepped away into safety. What the other wanted was a clinch. It was in some way necessary to the trick.
All prying queries were side-stepped. As soon as possible Sandy and Bud cut short the conversation and left the yacht club. Unger's face wore an angry sneer as they walked out. "What a creep!" Bud said, when he and Sandy were driving back in his red convertible. Meanwhile, in his private laboratory at Enterprises, Tom was somewhat discouraged.
