After twenty years, Kate Barlow returned to Green Lake. Sometimes she could hear Sam’s voice echoing across the emptiness. “Onions! Sweet fresh onions.” And sometimes she would hear him say, “I can fix that,” and she’d feel his warm arm across her shoulders. She knew she was crazy. She knew she’d been crazy for the last twenty years. She was awakened one morning by someone kicking open the cabin door. She could smell Trout Walker’s dirty feet. A redheaded woman was there with Trout.(Linda Miller) Trout jabbed her throat with the rifle. “Where’s the loot?” “There is no loot,” said Kate. They made her walk barefoot on the hot ground. They wouldn’t let her stop walking. The lizard landed on Kate’s bare ankle. Its sharp black teeth bit into her leg. Kate Barlow died laughing. There was a change in the weather. The air became unbearably humid. A loud boom of thunder echoed across the empty lake. A storm was way off to the west, beyond the mountains. Usually, Stanley couldn’t see the mountains at this time of the day. The only time they were visible was just at sunup, before the air became hazy. Now, however, the sky was very dark off to the west, and every time the lightning flashed, the dark shap of the mountains would briefly appear. The horizon lit up with a huge web of lightning. In that split second Stanley thought he saw an unusual rock formation on top of one of the mountain peaks. The peak looked to him exactly like a giant fist, with the thumb sticking straight up. “I fonnd refuge on God’s thumb.” That was what his great-grandfather had supposedly said after Kate Barlow had robbed him and left him stranded in the desert. Although, instead of lightning flashing behind the thumb, in Stanley’s mind, the lightning was coming out of the thumb, as if it were the thumb of God. The next day was Zigzag’s birthday.(July 8) Zigzag lay in his cot as everyone headed outside. Then a little while later he cut into the breakfast line. “Can I have an extra carton of juice?” Zigzag asked Mr. Sir. To everyone’s surprise, Mr. Sir gave it to him. Forty-six days. Stanley didn’t dig a hole that first day, and he hadn’t dug one yet today. That meant he’d dug forty-four holes─if it really was July 8. X-Ray let Stanley move to the front of the line when Mr. Pendanski arrived with water and lunch. Stanley pushed Zigzag’s cookie away. Zigzag pushed him back. “Hit him back. You’re bigger,” said Mr. Pendanski. “Teach the bully a lesson.” Stanley made a feeble attempt to punch Zigzag. Zigzag was hitting him with one of his hand. Then, Stanley saw that Zero had his arm around Zigzag’s long neck. The Warden walked over from her cabin. “I don’t want anyone digging anyone else’s hole,” said the Warden. “And no more reading lessons.” “I’m not digging another hole,” said Zero. “I hate digging holes.” He slowly backed away, farther and farther out onto the lake.
