dnt think that Lulu would want to shoot him, but she still might out of fear or surprise. He moved slowly down the base of the dunes, letting his eyes adjust to the dark. Finally, she saw a woman running. Spyder lit out after her.
"Lulu!" Spyder yelled. "Lulu!"
When he reached her, Lulu was on her knees in the sand, the four-ten wedged under her chin.
"Stay the hell back, Spyder. "
"Give me the gun. "
"I didnt want you to get hurt. And I didnt mean for you to get involved in my shit. The Clerks are coming for you now, too. For all of us. "
"Theyre not coming for anyone. Were going to get that magic book and get clean. "
"Look at us, Spyder. Those people back there have a clue. We get loaded and hunt for girls. We cant help them. "
"Not dead, we cant. "
"Well mess everything up. "
"Thats a possibility. "
Lulu looked at Spyder. "I really love you, you know. Youre the best person I know. But I cant have those things crawling around inside my skull. " Spyder heard Lulu pull back the hammer on the four-ten.
"Before you do anything, I want you to listen to me, Lulu," Spyder said in a calm and even voice. "You listening?"
"Im not putting the gun down. "
"Fair enough. You hold on to it, if it makes you feel -better. "
"Okay. "
"The Clerks took your eyes. We know that and are agreed on it, right?"
"Yeah. "
"Did they take your ears?"
"No. Ive still got them. "
"Right. So all they can do is watch TV with the sound off. You following me?"
"Not really. "
