You're just adventure-prone." "And for the sake of my gray hair, stay out of trouble," Zircon pleaded. "Stay close to us until we get to Clipper Cay." "It will be a pleasure," Rick assured him. "Only let us out of your sight long enough to shower, please. I'm sticky." "We'll stay in the hotel," Scotty promised. "Fine. I'll feel better about it if I know where you are.
"Seriously," Zircon asked, "have either of you a theory to account for this? Or do you really believe that the octopus wailed?" "We'd be in a better position to answer that if we'd had a chance to explore the cave," Scotty replied. "How can we tell? Maybe the octopus really did wail, and we were the lucky ones who heard the sound for the first time." He grinned.
"You make sense," Scotty agreed, then added practically, "but I don't see what difference it makes, whether they know about our connection with Steve or not. The moment they catch us snooping they'll assume we're enemies. Until then, they'll let us alone just as they've been doing." Zircon and Scotty joined forces to prepare lunch.
He carried his spear gun while Zircon took the wrecking bar. Rick watched as they vanished from sight, leaving only the continuing track of bubbles. Ashore, a man came out of the fancy frogmen's house and walked down to the beach. He shaded his eyes and stared at the Water Witch. Rick pointed him out to Tony. "This business stumps me," the archaeologist admitted.
It was nearly dark now, only a glimmer of light in the west. The four sat on the front porch of the cottage. Zircon asked, "Did you monitor the radio tonight, Rick?" "Yes, but there was no word from Steve." "Don't you think he might like to know about the presence of his shadow on Clipper Cay?" Tony inquired. Rick pointed to the Sky Wagon resting on the beach.
"They knew that tanks could be dangerous, and they knew that oil in a compressor is dangerous. You're right, Rick. They know plenty about it." "But it doesn't do us much good to know that they know," Rick concluded. "Well, now what? It will be a few hours before all the tanks are charged." "Where are Zircon and Tony?" "Napping. We probably should join them." "Not me.
Scotty and Rick went through the check list, inspecting the plane for possible storm damage. Then Rick started the engine and warmed it up. By the time they were ready, Zircon was climbing aboard. Scotty yelled, "Tony and I will keep the home fires burning. Don't waste any time, Rick!" "I won't." Zircon closed the cabin door and Rick taxied out.
When your party split in two, he decided to stay with you instead of Zircon and Briotti. There could be two reasons: First, you were the ones who contacted Steve on the street. Second, you stayed at the waterfront while the others went off in a taxi. I like the second reason better because of what happened later. How about you, Steve?" "I'm with you. Go ahead." "Well, at this point I get lost.
Miascite is one of the varieties of syenite most frequently spoken of; it is composed chiefly of orthoclase and nepheline, with hornblende and quartz as occasional accessory minerals. It derives its name from Miask, in the Ural Mountains, where it was first discovered by Gustavus Rose. ZIRCON-SYENITE is another variety closely allied to Miascite, but containing crystals of Zircon.
At first he felt resistance on the line, then Zircon hurried to catch up. Not until they were barely within seeing distance of the light did Rick stop, then he took his belt slate, started the camera for light, and wrote "Bubbles go by thm if we undr. They see." Zircon held a hand to his head in a sign of chagrin that he had forgotten, then he wrote, "Hw we gt clos?" Rick pondered the problem.
