Holes sentences 11-15

 

He slammed his shovel into the ground and pried up another piece of earth

After a while, he noticed X-Ray had come by and was watching him dig. 

let me talk to you a second

Stanley put down his shovel and stepped up out of his hole. 

He slammed his blade into the ground, then dumped out another shovelful of dirt.

Derrick Dunne would be scared senseless by any of the boys here. 

Derrick wouldn't stand a chance. 

"Just what do you think you're doing?" asks Squid, as he slams his hands into Derrick Dunne's smug face

"Caveman's our friend," says Armpit, grabbing him by the shin collar

It helped him dig his hole and ease his own suffering.

Whatever pain he felt was being felt ten times worse by Derrick.

Again, Stanley was the last one to finish digging. It was late afternoon when he dragged himself back to the compound.

He managed to nod. 

Stanley plopped down between Squid and Magnet.

Veterinarian

He belongs in the zoo

you should try to make the most of it

Zero's mouth was shut tight. As he glared at Mr. Pendanski, his dark eyes seemed to expand. 

He dug his shovel into the dirt. 

His skin had gotten tougher. It didn't hurt so much to hold the shovel. 

As he drank from his canteen he looked up at the sky. A cloud had appeared earlier in the day.

Occasionally it got close, but it was just teasing them.

His hole was waist deep.

As he dumped it out, he thought he saw something glisten as it fell onto the dirt pile.

He glanced up at the cloud, which was close enough to the sun that he had to squint to look at it. 

He dug his shovel back into the earth, scooped out some dirt, and lifted it over his dirt pile. But instead of dumping it there, he tossed it off to the side. His curiosity had gotten the better of him. He climbed up out of his hole and sifted his fingers through the pile. He felt something hard and metallic. He pulled it out. 

He looked again at the design engraved into the flat bottom of the tube. He could see an outline of a heart, with the letters K B etched inside it. 

He could explain the situation to the Warden, and the Warden might make up an excuse for giving him the day off, so X-Ray wouldn't suspect. 

It's prob'ly just a piece of junk

"No, I don't know!" X-Ray snapped.

Mr. Sir marched the boys out to the lake, chewing sunflower seeds along the way and spitting out the shells.

He scraped the ground with his boot heel, to mark where each boy was supposed to dig. 

He couldn't figure out why X-Ray snapped at him.

Stanley sometimes could see some distant hills

They were only visible for a short while and would soon disappear behind the haze of heat and dirt. 

The truck stopped, and the dust cloud drifted past it.

It didn't take long for the pickup to return.

turquoise stones

The sleeves on her shirt were rolled up, and her arms were covered with freckles, as was her face.

The Warden wiggled her finger for him to come to her.

She gently shook the canteen, letting the water swish inside the plastic container. 

The Warden got a pitchfork out of the back of the pickup.

I want you to bring back three wheelbarrows

The Warden remained at the site for the remainder of the day, along with Mr. Pendanski

she told Stanley. 

He wondered if Zigzag was just being paranoid. 

Stanley had his doubts about that.
