      Run to the Hills

      *

      Sherry closed her eyes, and thoughts of her childhood rushed through her mind, much like an 8-mm film spinning out of control on a drive-in theater screen. She saw her parents, her friends, her dog, and the old neighborhood. In an instant, all of the fears she had felt and all of the joys she had experienced flashed across the screen of her open mind. Then she opened her eyes in the breeze, and the sensation of falling overcame the other senses, such that there was no sound, no smell, and no taste that could place her back into the real world. There was only the sensation of pain in her injured arm and the sight of the dangling rope ladder as it slowly passed by in the wind that could relay to her that there was more to her life than just memories. There was life itself, and she reached out to hold onto it so that she too would not become a passing memory. Her hand slipped between two rungs of the rope ladder, and the crease between her forearm and bicep pulled the rope taut. Following the dynamic leap of faith from the top of the building to the rope ladder, the sudden jolt of pain in her arm injected the sound of the helicopter blades, the smell of the cool breeze, and the taste of grinding teeth. Sherry was indeed alive, holding Crush and herself fifteen stories above downtown Durham, North Carolina, and hanging on for dear life.

      Before she could bark out an order, Crush had grabbed the rope ladder with his free arm, thereby relieving the pressure on her forearm, and within seconds they were making their way up the ladder to the helicopter fuselage above. When they reached the top of the ladder, I. M. Pound reached a hand out the side door and helped them both inside. He then pulled the length of ladder onto the skid and closed the door. Sherry was given a seat between Dr. Theresa Tatum and Crush, and though she felt glad to be safely inside, her stomach churned over and over to the step of the chopper blades in a turmoil of churning wooziness. As she leaned forward to relieve the spinning motion, she lost the contents of her stomach into a bag that she had been given by Dr. Tatum. The flight to freedom for the DAM began with the tossing of a barf bag out of the cabin door to the downtown streets of Durham.

      Lay still, Dr. Tatum encouraged her as she stroked her hair. "It will
