Chapter 21: The Catwalk
Wyatt's POV
A week at the base, and I still couldn't sleep past four.
I lay on a Guard bunk beside her in the dark with the dream running behind my eyes.
The white ramp, the warm wind, the roaring.
On the seventh morning I got up before the light and climbed the control tower.
It was a hundred and forty steps of steel stairs with a glass cab at the top and a catwalk around it.
The wind was thin and cold up there, and the sky behind the hills had gone the color of a peach.
I stood at the rail with Tor's old binoculars and looked east.
The city lay under me in a gray sprawl, silent, no smoke.
Five miles off, on its hill, stood the arena.
I could see the south side of it, the loading yard, and the long concrete ramp running down to a steel door.
There was a rail along one side of the ramp.
It was exactly what I'd seen for a month in my sleep.
I heard her on the stairs before she reached the top.
She came out onto the catwalk in her red parka with two mugs of coffee and stopped.
"You're up early," she said.
"Show me."
"Show you what?" she said.
"Where."
She didn't pretend.
She set the coffees on the rail and took the binoculars out of my hands.
