<p><quote>I think they were waiting to hear some good news from an agent they sent after us,</quote> you reply, as you walk together towards the place where Kate has parked your roadster. <quote>They<ch.apos/>ve a long wait if they<ch.apos/>re still expecting him to call.</quote></p>
<p>Kate looks at you with a puzzled expression, and you recount in detail the events that befell the team during the escape from Ciudad Juarez. As you drive out of Benson, you tell her how Frankland, Haskell, and Knott met their deaths, and how you avenged them in your showdown with their murderer, Helmut Varken, at the Tombstone courthouse.</p>
<p><quote>What d<ch.apos/>you think<ch.apos/>s gonna happen when Mad Dog finds out that you<ch.apos/>ve killed Varken?</quote> she asks, nervously.</p>
- <p><quote>Well, he ain<ch.apos/>t gonna be happy, that<ch.apos/>s f<ch.apos/>sure, especially after what we did at Ciudad. I don<ch.apos/>t know what he<ch.apos/>ll do. I guess we<ch.apos/>ll just have to wait an<ch.apos/> see.</quote></p>

- <p>After ten hours<ch.apos/> deep, uninterrupted sleep, you wake feeling thoroughly refreshed: restore 4 <typ class="attribute">ENDURANCE</typ> points. The barricade is still intact and, once it is dismantled, you arm yourself before investigating the six other buildings that comprise the town. All of them are empty and show no signs of having been entered during the night, prompting you to believe that you may, at least for the time being , have given the assassin the slip.</p>

<p>In a shack behind the diner you discover a motorcycle that is in a serviceable condition. The tyres are sound and the gas tank is over half full with gasolene, but its oil level is very low. As you kick start the engine you can only hope that it will get you as far as Tucson before breaking down.</p>
<p>After studying the <a idref="map">map</a> you mount your new vehicle and set off, heading north along Highway 666. You have ridden only seven miles when a collapsed bridge forces you to change direction and travel west along an unmarked mountain road. You enjoy the cool breeze whipping through your hair as you ride at speed along this empty trail, and you cover more than twenty miles before coming to a small town where a sign proclaims:</p>
