THE BOURNE ULTIMATUM 410 40 NovgorodTo say it was incredible was to obliquely recognize the existence of credibility and that was nearly impossibleIt was the ultimate fantasy, its optical illusions seemingly more real than reality, the phantasmagoria there to be touched, felt, used, entered into and departed from; it was a collective masterpiece of invention cut out of the immense forests along the Volkhov RiverFrom the moment Bourne emerged from the deep underground tunnel below the water with its guards, gates and myriad cameras, he was as close to being in a state of shock while still being able to keep walking, observing, absorbing, thinking The American compound, presumably like those of the different balenciaga bag countries, was broken up into sections, built on areas anywhere from two to five acres, each distinctly separate from the others One area, erected on the banks of the river, might be the heart of a Maine waterfront village; another, farther inland, a small Southern town; yet another, a busy metropolitan city streetEach was completely ?authentic? with the appropriate vehicular traffic, police, dress codes, shops, grocery and drug stores, gas stations and mock structures of buildings?many of which rose two stories high and were so real they had American hardware on the doors and windowsObviously, as vital as the physical appearances was language?not merely the fluent use of English but the mastery of linguistic idiosyncrasies, the dialects that were characteristic of specific locationsAs Jason wandered from one section to another he heard all around him the distinctive soundsFrom New England Down East with its ?eeahh? to Texas?s drawl and its familiar ?you-alls?; from the gentle nasality of the Midwest to the loud abrasiveness of the large Eastern cities with the inevitable ?know what I mean?? tacked on to conversational sentences, whether questions prada replica handbags or statementsIt was all incredibleIt was not simply beyond belief, it made the true suspension of disbelief frighteningly viable He had been briefed on the flight from Vnokova by a late-middle-aged Novgorod graduate who had been urgently summoned from his Moscow apartment by KrupkinThe small, bald man was not only garrulously instructive, but in his own way mesmerizingIf anyone had ever told Jason Bourne that he was going to be briefed in depth by a Soviet espionage agent whose English was so laced with the Deep South that it sonorously floated out of his mouth with the essence of magnolias, he would have deemed the information preposterous ?Good Lawd, Ah do miss those barbecues, especially the ribsYou know who grilled ?em best?

You?re crazy!? ?At this moment I?m the most rational man you?ve ever met,? interrupted Jason harshly, rapidly, as the panicked residents of Novgorod kept rushing by?There?s not a sane general in the Soviet army?the same army that retook Stalingrad?who wouldn?t agree with meIt?s called the ?calculated estimate of losses,? and there?s a very good reason for that lousy verbiageIt simply means you?re paying a lot less for what you?re getting now than you?d pay later ?You?re asking too much! These people are my comrades, my friends; they?re RussiansWould you fire into a crowd of Americans? One recoil of my hands?an inch, two inches celebrity chanel bag with a ?fortyseven?? and I could maim or kill half a dozen people! The risk?s too great!? ?You don?t have a choiceIf the Jackal gets by me?and I?ll know it if he does?I?ll throw in a grenade and kill twenty ?You son of a bitch!? ?Believe it, BenWhere Carlos is concerned I?m a son of a bitchI can?t afford him any longer, the world can?t afford himMove!? The trainer named Benjamin spat in Bourne?s face, then turned and began fighting his way to the guardhouse and the unseen corpse of the colonel beyondAlmost unconsciously Jason wiped his face with the back of his hand, his concentration solely on the fenced parking area, his eyes darting from one pocket of shadows to another, trying to center in on the origins of the automatic gunfire, yet knowing it was pointless; the Jackal had changed position by thenHe counted the other vehicles in addition to the fuel truck; there were nine parked by the fence?two station wagons, four sedans and three suburban vans, all American-made or simulated as suchCarlos was Robert Ludlum ??

Don?t think about them, don?t acknowledge them You?re too close, David! Keep goingJason Bourne knows what to doTrust him! Aaughh! He spun his body over the fence; the handle of his sheathed bayonet embedded itself in his kidneyThere is no pain! You?re too close, David?JasonListen to Jason! The searchlights?someone had pressed something and they went crazy, spinning around in circles, abrupt, blinding, out of control! Where would Carlos go? Where could he hide? The beams were erratically piercing everywhere! Then, from an opening that he could not see from across the fenced-in area, two police cars raced inside, their sirens blaringUniformed men leaped out from every door, and contrary to anything he expected to see, each scrambled to the borders of the fence, behind the cars and the vans, one after another dashing from one vehicle to another to the open gate that led to the guardhouse and the balenciaga whistle bag tun | ||

| ?Hold on a sec,? he said, and then he grabbed the cot closest to himIt wasn't heavy?he lifted it easily and slid it into place next to Walter'sI stretched my arm to the limit, trying not to jostle Walter, so that Ian could arrange the cot under itThen he grabbed me up just as easily and set me on the cot beside WalterWalter's eyes never flutteredI gasped quietly, caught off guard by the casual way Ian was able to put his hands on me?as though I were human Ian jerked his chin toward Walter's hand clasped around mine?Do you think you can sleep like that?? ?Yes, I'm sure black chanel quilted bag celeb I can He smiled at me, then turned and lifted Jamie from the other cot?Let's go, kid,? he muttered, carrying the boy with no more effort than if he were an infantIan's quiet footsteps faded into the distance until I couldn't hear them anymore Doc yawned and went to sit behind the desk he'd constructed out of wooden crates and an aluminum door, taking the dim lamp with himWalter's face was too dark to see, and that made me nervousIt was like he was already goneI took comfort in his fingers, still curled stiffly around mine Doc began to shuffle through some papers, humming louis vuitton vienna bag almost inaudibly to himselfI drifted off to the sound of the gentle rustling Walter recognized me in the morning He didn't wake until Ian showed up to escort me back; the cornfield was due to be cleared of the old stalksI promised Doc I would bring him breakfast before I got to workThe very last thing I did was to carefully loosen my numb fingers, freeing them from Walter's grasp?Wanda,? he whispered ?Walter??
