The snapper-boats seemed miles away to Rip, but he plugged ahead until his belt light picked them up. He took a long look, then turned away, heartsick. The Connie's exhaust had charred them into wreckage. "Now what?" he asked. "I don't know, sir," Koa answered somberly. They went back to the cave, not hurrying because Rip no longer had the strength to hurry.
