Grayfox (2016)
“Against Demming’s gun they didn’t seem like much, but they would have to do.
I’d have to use them carefully, hopefully to trick the kidnapper instead of shooting him.
I slung the bow up around my back, took the quiver in my hand, made sure Laughing Waters knew what she was to do, and then crept once more up the rocks above us, this time in a course parallel to the direction of the whole ridge—mostly southward but a little to the east. It was midmorning by now, maybe even getting on towa...rd noon. I headed toward the sun. It was already pretty high in the sky. But by going south, even at midday, I still kept it in front of me. I hoped it would be in Demming’s eyes too—enough to keep him from seeing me.
I was trying to work my way in a large circle, both down through the hills toward the south and at the same time closer to Demming. My plan was to lure him away from where he had kept Laughing Waters. If I could get him far enough away on foot, then she could take the pony back the way we had come, past the hiding place, until the mountains began to level off, and then get on the pony and ride back down into the valley.MoreLess
