Holes sentences 46-50

 

The lizard which had been in the cereal box was springing toward him.

Mr. Sir shot it in midair. Stanley felt the blast shatter the air around him. The lizards scurried frantically across his very still body. He did not flinch.

Mr. Sir lit a cigarette.

Mr. Pendanski laughed grimly.

"I've waited this long, I can wait another few . . ." Her voice trailed off.

Stanley felt a lizard crawl in and out of his pocket.

initiate an investigation

"Why aren't you dead yet?"

the lizards etched into his brain.

all bundled up in a snowsuit.

He and his mother were walking, hand in hand, mitten in mitten, when they both slipped on some ice and fell and rolled down a snow-covered hillside.

He could see flecks of snow on his mother's bright and cheery face.

He glanced at Zero. A lizard was perched on his shoulder.

giving Stanley the thumbs-up sign.

His legs were sore from remaining rigid for so long.

Standing still was more strenuous than walking.

The lizards didn't seem to mind.

The Warden had dark circles under her eyes from lack of sleep, and lines across her forehead and face which seemed exaggerated in the stark morning light. Her skin looked blotchy.

Sometime later Stanley saw a tarantula crawl across the dirt, not too far from his hole.

He was momentarily fascinated by it, as its big hairy body moved slowly and steadily along.

It was merely pushing off.

It leapt off Stanley's neck and pounced on the tarantula.

"My legs are numb," said Zero.

As he tried to pull himself up, using just his arms, he felt a claw dig into his ankle.

Had he been working on that all night?

She spoke with a little bit of a Mexican accent, trilling her r's. "What in tarnation?" the tall man exclaimed, as he came up behind her. She turned on him.

Child abuse. False imprisonment. Torture.

"How long have they been in there?"

They snuck into my cabin while I was asleep, and stole my suitcase. I chased after them, and they ran out here and fell into the lizards' nest.

"Yes, it is," the Warden agreed, with just a trace of disappointment in her voice.

"And they better come out of this alive,"

some of my valuables

He's been delirious for the last week.

"Authenticated? It was signed by the judge who sentenced him."

"It was not authenticated," the Warden said. "How do I know it's legitimate? The boys in my custody have proven themselves dangerous to society. Am I supposed to just turn them loose any time someone hands me a piece of paper?"

He's been suffering from hallucinations and delirium. Ranting and raving. He was in no condition to leave. 

He swung his legs up and over, and the last of the lizards hopped off.

The lizards, which had been hiding under it, scurried quickly into the hole.

Stanley and Zero staggered away.

He was so tired he couldn't think straight. He felt as if he was walking in a dream, not quite able to comprehend what was going on around him.

The Warden seemed as dazed as Stanley.

"I have the right to check the personal property of any of the detainees. How do I know there aren't drugs or weapons in there? He stole a car, too! I've got witnesses!" She was nearly hysterical. "He is no longer under your jurisdiction," said Stanley's lawyer.

His eyes shifted toward Mr. Pendanski on one side of him, then to the Warden and Mr. Sir on the other.

"You are released pursuant to an order from the judge."

She looked at him blankly. "Well?"

The Attorney General was outraged.

"I assume the phone works." He walked into the camp office, slamming the door behind him. A little while later he reappeared and told the Warden he wanted to talk to her. She cursed, then went inside.

"Stanley is being released today," "Way to go,"

"Will you do me a favor?" "I guess," Stanley agreed, somewhat hesitantly.

The boys departed when the Warden came out of the office.

"So you have no claim of authority over him?"

"How long has he been here?"

So what are you planning to do with him? Keep him confined indefinitely, without justification

He was obviously incarcerated for a reason.

the townsfolk

Walter looked around unsure, as Bo and Jesse laughed. Even Mary Lou let out a rare hee-haw.

You got to get it into your bloodstream.

"No offense, but you boys really smell bad."

Ms. Morengo explained that she was a patent attorney.

Stanley felt his ears redden.

eliminates foot odor

You two could bathe in it.

Stanley's mother insists that there never was a curse.

the answers tend to be long and tedious.

But those changes are subtle and hard to measure.

Even the contents of the suitcase turned out to be somewhat tedious.

Stanley's father pried it open in his workshop, and at first everyone gasped at the sparkling jewels.

These consisted of stock certificates, deeds of trust, and promissory notes.

But not a lot less.

a commercial came on the screen.

"Safe!" shouted the umpire as he signaled with his arms.

As he made his way back to the dugout, he spoke to the camera.

"They used to smell so bad that nobody would sit near me in the dugout." "They really did stink," She held her nose with one hand, and fanned the air with the other. Clyde shushed her.

"A treat for your feet. Made from all natural ingredients, it neutralizes odor-causing fungi and bacteria. Plus, you'll like the tingle."

He patted Stanley on the shoulder as he rose from the couch.

He felt himself blush, and turned away toward Hector

A woman sitting in the chair behind Hector was absent-mindedly fluffing his hair with her fingers.

She wasn't very old, but her skin had a weathered look to it, almost like leather.

Her eyes seemed weary

she half sang, half hummed a song
