1:19 pm	@@@@@There had been a guardhouse then and a @@@@@There had been a guardhouse then and a series of armed patrols in the dense forest and a madman, a butcher who controlled an army of killers, foremost among them the false Jason BourneHe had penetrated that deadly sanctuary, crippled a small fleet of trucks and automobiles by plunging the blade of his knife into every tire, then proceeded to take out each patrol in the Jing Shan forest until he found the torch-lit clearing that held a swaggering maniac and his brigade of fanaticsCould he do it all today? wondered Bourne as he drove slowly past Swayne’s property for the third time, his eyes absorbing everything he could seeFive years later, thirteen years after Paris? He tried to evaluate the realityHe was not the younger man that he had been in Paris, nor the more mature man in Hong Kong, Macao and Beijing; he was now fifty and he felt it, every year of itHe would not dwell on itThere was too much else to think about, and the twenty-eight acres of General Norman Swayne’s property were not the forest primeval of the Jing Shan sanctuary However, as he had done on the primitive outskirts of Beijing, he drove the car off the country road deep into a mass of tall grass and foliageHe climbed out and proceeded to cover the vehicle with bent and broken branchesThe rapidly descending darkness would complete the camouflage, and with the darkness he would go to workHe had changed his clothes in the men’s room at the gas station: black trousers below a black long-sleeved, skintight pullover; and black thick-soled sneakers with heavy treadThese were his working apparelThe items he spread on the ground were his equipment, the shopping he had done after leaving GeorgetownThey included a longbladed hunting knife whose scabbard he threaded into his belt; a dual-chambered CO2 pistol, encased in a nylon shoulder holster, that silently shot immobilizing darts into attacking animals, such as pit bulls; two flares designed to assist stranded drivers in broken-down cars to attract or deter other motorists; a pair of small Zeiss Ikon 8x10 binoculars attached to his trousers by a Velcro strip; a penlight; raw-hide laces; and finally, pocket-sized wire cutters in case there was a metal fenceAlong with the automatic supplied by the Central Intelligence Agency, the gear was either lashed to his belt or concealed in his clothingThe darkness came and Jason Bourne walked into the woods The white sheet of ocean spray burst up from the coral reef and appeared suspended, the dark blue waters of the Caribbean serving as a backdropIt was that hour of early evening, a long sundown imminent, when Tranquility Isle was bathed in alternating hot tropical colors, pockets of Robert Ludlum ?? THE BOURNE ULTIMATUM 80 shadows constantly changing with each imperceptible descent of the orange sunThe resort complex of Tranquility Inn had seemingly been cut out of three adjacent rock-strewn hills above an elongated beach sandwiched between huge natural jetties of coralTwo rows of balconied pink villas with bright red roofs of terra-cotta extended from each side of the resort’s central hub, a large circular building of heavy stone and thick glass, all the structures overlooking the water, the villas connected by a white concrete path bordered by low-cut shrubbery and lined with ground lamps Waiters in yellow guayabera jackets wheeled room-service tables along the path, delivering bottles and ice and canapés to Tranquility’s guests, the majority of whom sat on their individual balconies savoring the end of the Caribbean dayAnd as the shadows became more prominent, other people unobtrusively appeared along the beach and on the long dock that extended out over the water These were neither guests nor service employees; they were armed guards, each dressed in a dark brown tropical uniform and—again unobtrusively—with a MAC-10 machine pistol strapped to his belted waistOn the opposite side of each jacket and hooked to the cloth was a pair of Zeiss Ikon 8x10 binoculars continuously used to scan the darkness (Comment on this)

Jibe," and threw his body painfully over hersShe heard a rattling, creaking noise close to her head chanel classic bag and sensed the slow then faster then rushing swing of the heavy boom aboveEverything happened very fast, yet it seemed to be terribly, unnaturally slow, as though the whole world were stoppingShe looked without understanding at Rhett's face so near to hers, and then it was gone and he was on his knees again doing something, she didn't know what, except that heavy loops of thick rope were falling on herShe didn't see the crosswind ruffle, then suddenly fill, the wet canvas of the mainsail and propel it to the opposite side of the wayless sloop with an ever-mounting force so mightly that there was a crack like the omega seamaster gold sound of lightning striking and the thick mast broke and was carried into the sea by the momentum and weight of the sailThe hull of the boat bucked, then lifted to starboard and rolled slowly, following the pull of the fouled rigging, until it was upside downCapsized in the cold storm-torn seaShe'd never known such cold could existCold rain pelting her, colder waters surrounding her, pulling at herHer whole body must be frozen Her teeth were chattering uncontrollably, making such a noise in her head that she couldn't think, couldn't understand what was happening, except that she must be paralyzed, because she couldn't ladies omega constellation move (Comment on this)
