looked at his father.

"One single room for Doc. Double for J.B. and Mildred. Double for me and Krysty." He hesitated. "And a single adjoining for my son."

"Done. There'll be some of my men around the Gator all the time. Best you don't wander. Might run into some of the posse. Once Boss Larry's had his happy fix, he might call around and you can go on the rides.

Until then, stay here."

"BEEN IN WORSE PRISONS," Krysty said, lying stretched out on the queen-size bed, feet crossed, staring at the star-painted ceiling.

Ryan had washed his face and shaved, using the disposable razor that was in a plastic mug at the side of the basin. The water was hot and only faintly tinted. He'd read that water in the old pre-nuke days had been clear in the center of big villes as it was in a mountaintop stream.

A rapping sounded on the bolted door between their room and Dean's. "I'll get it." Krysty swung off the bed.

The boy had also washed, and had gelled his hair to his scalp, making him look older and oddly sinister.

Ryan went over and patted his son on the shoulder, hesitating a moment.

"Fireblast! What's that smell?"

Dean blushed. "Called Prince Mayakovsky Splash On. Said on the bottle to use plenty, so I did.

Is it awful, Dad?" He glanced at Krysty. "What do you think?"

She sniffed cautiously. "I think mebbe I'd use a tad less next time. But it'll wear off fast. Hungry, Dean?"

"Sure. Time for second food?"

Ryan glanced at his chron. "Yeah, I'll order up for us."

"Dad, can I ask a question? Know you think I ask too many."

"Long as it's the right time, I don't mind. What is it?"

"The baron All around are signs of triple-power, jack and sec men."

"Right."

"The guy Adam Traven. How come he orders Boss Larry around like he does? Got him running scared."

Ryan finished wiping his face on the fluffy white towel. "Good question, son. Mebbe we'll find an answer.

Until we do" he shrugged, "who knows?"
