?What do you make of it??

?I?m not sure, but from what I?ve learned about Dimitri Krupkin, it could be his styleHe?s now
working with Alex and if this isn?t something out of the Conklin textbook, I don?t know Saint Alex
?That dovetails with what Marie thinks
?Marie??
?Bourne?s wifeI just spoke to her and her argument?s pretty strongShe says Moscow?s report
is a wash for all the right reasonsIs that what you called to tell me??
?No,? answered the director, taking a deep breath?I?m adding to your trouble and confusion
?I?m not relieved to hear thatWhat is it??
?The Paris telephone number, the link to the Jackal we got from Henry Sykes in Montserrat that
reached a caf? on the Marais waterfront in Paris
?Where someone would answer a call for a blackbird
?Someone did and we followed himYou?re not going to like this
?Alex Conklin is about to earn the prick-of-the-year awardHe put us on to Sykes, didn?t he??
?Yes
?The message was tiffany and co necklace delivered to the home of the director of the Deuxi?me Bureau
?My God! We?d better turn that over to the SED branch of French intelligence with a restricted
chronology
?I?m not turning anything over to anybody until we hear from ConklinWe owe him that
much?I think
?What the hell are they doing?? shouted a frustrated Casset over the phone?Putting out false
death notices?from Moscow, no less! What for??
?Jason Bourne?s gone hunting,? said Peter Holland?And when the hunt is over?if it?s over and
if the kill is made?he?s going to have to get out of the woods before anyone turns on himI
want every station and listening post on the borders of the Soviet Union on full alert

NovgorodTo say it was incredible was to obliquely recognize the existence of credibility and that
was nearly impossibleIt was the ultimate fantasy, its optical illusions seemingly more real than
reality, the phantasmagoria there to be touched, felt, used, entered dior china into and departed from; it was a
collective masterpiece of invention cut out of the immense forests along the Volkhov RiverFrom
the moment Bourne emerged from the deep underground tunnel below the water with its guards,
gates and myriad cameras, he was as close to being in a state of shock while still being able to keep
walking, observing, absorbing, thinking
The American compound, presumably like those of the different countries, was broken up into
sections, built on areas anywhere from two to five acres, each distinctly separate from the others
One area, erected on the banks of the river, might be the heart of a Maine waterfront village;
another, farther inland, a small Southern town; yet another, a busy metropolitan city streetEach
was completely ?authentic? with the appropriate vehicular traffic, police, dress codes, shops,
grocery and drug stores, gas stations and mock structures of buildings?many of which rose two
stories high and were so real they had American hardware on gucci horsebit hobo the doors and windowsObviously, as
vital as the physical appearances was language?not merely the fluent use of English but the
mastery of linguistic idiosyncrasies, the dialects that were characteristic of specific locationsAs
Jason wandered from one section to another he heard all around him the distinctive soundsFrom
New England Down East with its ?eeahh? to Texas?s drawl and its familiar ?you-alls?; from the
gentle nasality of the Midwest to the loud abrasiveness of the large Eastern cities with the
inevitable ?know what I mean?? tacked on to conversational sentences, whether questions or
statementsIt was all incredibleIt was not simply beyond belief, it made the true suspension of
disbelief frighteningly viable
He had been briefed on the flight from Vnokova by a late-middle-aged Novgorod graduate who
had been urgently summoned from his Moscow apartment by KrupkinThe small, bald man was
not only garrulously instructive, but in his own way mesmerizingIf anyone had ever montre cartier tank told Jason
Bourne that he was going to be briefed in depth by a Soviet espionage agent whose English was so
laced with the Deep South that it sonorously floated out of his mouth with the essence of
magnolias, he would have deemed the information preposterous
?Good Lawd, Ah do miss those barbecues, especially the ribsYou know who grilled ?em best?
That black fellow who I believed was such a good friend until he exposed meCan you imagine? I
thought he was one of those radicalsHe turned out to be a boy from Dartmouth workin? for the
FBIHell, the exchange was made at Aeroflot in New York and we still write
each other
?Adolescent games,? had mumbled BourneOh yes, he was a mighty fine coach
?Coach??
?Sure ?nuffA few of us started a Little League in East PointThat?s right outside Atlanta
?May we concentrate on Novgorod, please??
?Sutt?nlyDimitri may have told you, I?m semi-retired, but my pension requires that I spend five
days a month there as a tak govorya?a ?trainer,? as you would white chloe bag |

| ?Sometimes it?s just a telephone suddenly ringing,
or Marie?s late or out with the kids and I can?t reach her or someone I don?t know stops me in the
street to ask directions, and it comes back?he comes backAs long as there?s a
possibility that he?s alive, I have to be ready for him because he won?t stop looking for meThe
awful irony is that his hunt is based on a supposition that may not be trueHe thinks I can identify
him, but I?m not sure I couldNothing?s really in focus yet
?Have you considered sending that message to him??
?With his assets maybe I?ll take an ad out in the Wall Street Journal?Dear Old Buddy Carlos:
Boy, have I got news for you ?
?Don?t chortle, Jason, it?s not inconceivableYour friend Alex could find a wayHis gimp
doesn?t affect c c purse that head of hisI believe the fancy word is serpentine
?Which is why if he hasn?t tried it there?s a reason
?I guess I can?t argue with thatSo let?s go to work, Br?er RabbitWhat did you have in
mind?? Cactus led the way through a wide archway toward a door at the rear of a worn out living
room replete with ancient furniture and yellowed antimacassars?My studio isn?t as elegant as it
was but all the equipment?s thereYou see, I?m sort of semi-retiredMy financial planners worked
out a hell of a retirement program with great tax advantages, so the pressure?s not so great
?You?re only incredible,? said Bourne
?I imagine some people might say that, the ones not doin? timeWhat did you have in mind??
?Pretty much myselfNot Europe or Hong Kong, of courseJust chanel purse white papers, actually
?So the Chameleon retreats to another disguise
Jason stopped as they approached the door?That was something else I forgotThey used to call
me that, didn?t they??
Robert Ludlum ?? THE BOURNE ULTIMATUM

?Chameleon? They sure did and not without cause, as they saySix people could come faceto-
face with our boy Bourne and there?d be six different descriptionsWithout a jar of makeup,
incidentally
?It?s all coming back, Cactus
?I wish to almighty God that it didn?t have to, but if it does, you make damn sure it?s all back
Come on into the magic room
Three hours and twenty minutes later the magic was completedDavid Webb, Oriental scholar
and for three years Jason Bourne, assassin, had two additional aliases with passports, driver?s
licenses gucci g watch and voter registration cards to confirm the identitiesAnd since no cabs would travel out to
Cactus?s ?turf,? an unemployed neighbor wearing several heavy gold chains around his neck and
wrists drove Cactus?s client into the heart of Washington in his new Cadillac Allant?
Jason found a pay phone in Garfinkel?s department store and called Alex in Virginia, giving him
both aliases and selecting one for the Mayflower hotelConklin would officially secure a room
through the management in the event that summer reservations were tightFurther, Langley would
activate a Four Zero imperative and do its best to furnish Bourne with the material he needed,
delivering it to his room as soon as possibleThe estimate was a minimum of an additional three
hours, no guarantees bolsas louis as to the time or authenticityRegardless, thought Jason, as Alex reconfirmed
the information on a second direct line to the CIA, he needed at least two of those three hours
before going to the hotelHe had a small wardrobe to put together; the Chameleon was reverting to
type
?Steve DeSole tells me he?ll start spinning the disks, crosschecking ours with the army data
banks and naval intelligence,? said Conklin, returning to the line?Peter Holland can make it
happen; he?s the president?s crony
?Crony? That?s an odd word coming from you
?Like in crony appointmentHow about you? Any progress??
Conklin paused, and when he answered his quiet voice conveyed his fear; it was controlled but
the fear was there?Let?s put it this wayI?m not equipped for what I?ve replica cartier tank lear |

| When he was free, he turned his back to the nearest wall,
leaning into it as he eased himself to the floorHe settled in there, fidgeting until he found a
comfortable positionThe gun stayed balanced in the cradle of his lapJeb's head lolled back
against the wall, and his eyes closedIn seconds, he looked like he was asleep
I stood where he'd left me, trying to keep my eyes off Jamie's face and failing
Jamie was surprised again by Jeb's easy acquiescenceHe watched the old man recline on the
floor with wide eyes that made him look youngerAfter a few minutes of perfect stillness from
Jeb, Jamie looked back up at me, quilted chanel bag and his eyes tightened
The way he stared at me?angry, trying hard to be brave and grown-up, but also showing the
fear and pain so clearly in his dark eyes?had Melanie sobbing louder and my knees shaking
Rather than take a chance with another collapse, I moved slowly to the tunnel wall across from
Jeb and slid down to the floorI curled up around my bent legs, trying to be as small as possible
Jamie watched me with cautious eyes and then took four slow steps forward until he stood over
meHis glance flitted to Jeb, who hadn't moved or opened his eyes, and then Jamie knelt down
at my sideHis face was suddenly intense, cartier love and it made him look more adult than any expression
yetMy heart throbbed for the sad man in the little boy's face
?You're not Melanie,? he said in a low voice
It was harder not to speak to him becauseI was the one who wanted to speakInstead, after a
brief hesitation, I shook my head
?You're inside her body, though
Another pause, and I nodded
?What happened to your? to her face??
I shruggedI didn't know what my face looked like, but I could imagine
?Who did this to you?? he pressedWith a hesitant finger, he almost touched the side of my
neckI held still, feeling no urge to cringe away fromthis hand
?Aunt Maggie, chanel handbags on sale Jared, and Ian,? Jeb listed off in a bored voiceWe both jumped at the sound
Jeb hadn't moved, and his eyes were still closedHe looked so peaceful, as if he had answered
Jamie's question in his sleep
Jamie waited for a moment, then turned back to me with the same intense expression
?You're not Melanie, but you know all her memories and stuff, right??
I nodded again
?Do you know who I am??
I tried to swallow the words, but they slipped through my lips I couldn't help
how my voice wrapped around the name like a caress
He blinked, startled that I had broken my silence?Right,? he whispered back
We both looked at Jeb, vintage chanel jewelry who remained still, and back at each other
?Then you remember what happened to her?? he asked
I winced, and then nodded slowly
?I want to know,? he whispered
?I want to know,? Jamie repeated
?It's not? pleasant,? I breathed, unable to stop myselfIt was very hard to deny this boy what
he wanted
His straight black eyebrows pulled together and up in the middle over his wide eyes?Please,?
he whisperedI thought that maybe he was peeking from between his lashes now, but I
couldn't be sure
My voice was soft as breathing?Someone saw her go into a place that was off-limitsThey
knew something was wrongThey called the borse gucci Seekers |

?What??
?You heard mePanov?s gone, vanished
?My God, how? He was guarded every minute!?
?We?re trying to piece it together; that?s where I was, over at the hospital
?Hospital??
?Walter ReedHe was in a psych session with a military this morning, and when it was over he
never came out to his detailThey waited twenty minutes or so, then went in to find him and his
escort because he was on a tight scheduleThey were told he left
?That?s crazy!?
?It gets crazier and scarierThe head floor nurse said an army doctor, a surgeon, came to the
desk, showed his ID, and instructed her to tell DrPanov that there was a change of routing for him,
that he was to use the east-wing exit because of an expected protest march at the main entrance
The east wing has a different hallway to the psych area than the one to the main lobby, yet the army
surgeon chanel black tote bag used the main doors
?Come again??
?He walked right past our escort in the hallway
?And obviously out the same way and around to the east-wing hallNothing on-scene unusual
A doctor with clearance in a restricted area, in and out, and while he?s in, he delivers false
instructionsBut, Christ, Alex, who? Carlos was on his way back here, to Paris! Whatever he
wanted in Washington he gotHe found me, he found usHe didn?t need any more!?
?DeSole,? said Conklin quietly?DeSole knew about me and Mo PanovI threatened the
Agency with both of us, and DeSole was there in the conference roomWhat are you telling me??
?DeSole, Brussels
?All right, I?m slow
?It?s not he, David, it?s theyDeSole was taken out, our connection removed
?To hell with them! They?re on my back burner!?

?You?re not on theirsYou cracked chanel j12 their shell
?I couldn?t care lessI told you yesterday, I?ve only got one priority and he?s in Paris, square
one in Argenteuil
?Then I haven?t been clear,? said Alex, his voice faint, the tone defeated?Last night I had
dinner with MoI told him everythingTranquility, your flying to Paris, Bernardine everything!?
A former judge of the first circuit court, residing in Boston, Massachusetts, United States of
America, stood among the small gathering of mourners on the flat surface of the highest hill on
Tranquility IsleThe cemetery was the final resting place?in voce verbatim via amicus curiae, as
he legally explained to the authorities on MontserratBrendan Patrick Pierre Prefontaine watched
as the two splendid coffins provided by the generous owner of Tranquility Inn were lowered into
the ground along with the absolutely incomprehensible dolce purse blessings of the native priest, who no doubt
usually had the neck of a dead chicken in his mouth while intoning his benediction in voodoo
language?Jean Pierre Fontaine? and his wife were at peace
Nevertheless, barbarism notwithstanding, Brendan, the quasi-alcoholic street lawyer of Harvard
Square, had found a causeA cause beyond his own survival, and that in itself was remarkable
Randolph Gates, Lord Randolph of Gates, Dandy Randy of the Courts of the Elite, was in reality a
scumball, a conduit of death in the CaribbeanAnd the outlines of a scheme were forming in
Prefontaine?s progressively clearer mind, clearer because, among other inhumane deprivations, he
had suddenly decided to do without his four shots of vodka upon waking up in the morningGates
had provided the essential information that led the would-be killers of the Webb family chloe black chloe black to
Tranquility IsleThat was basically, even legally, irrelevant; the fact that he had supplied
their whereabouts to known killers, with prior knowledge that they were killers, was notThat was
accomplice to murder, multiple murderDandy Randy?s testicles were in a vise, and as the plates
closed, he would?he had to?reveal information that would assist the Webbs, especially the
glorious auburn-headed woman he wished to almighty God he had met fifty years ago
Prefontaine was flying back to Boston in the morning, but he had asked John StJacques if he
might return one dayPerhaps not with a prepaid reservation
?Judge, my house is your house? was the reply
?I might even earn that courtesy

?I want Kyle,? Andy said quickly
?Then I get Ian,? Lily countered
Jamie got to his feet and stood on his toes, trying to look tall
The roll call continuedJamie glowed when Lily chose him before half the adults were taken
Even Maggie and Jeb were picked for teamsThe numbers were even until Lucina came back
with Jared, her two small boys bouncing in excitementJared had a shiny new soccer ball in his
hand; he held it out, and Isaiah, the older child, jumped up and down trying to knock it from prada clutch his
hand
I shook my head and pointed to my leg
I'm good at soccer,Mel grumbled
I can hardly walk,I reminded her
?I think I'll sit this one out,? Ian said
?No,? Wes complained?They've got Kyle and JaredWe're dead without you?I'll? I'll keep score
He looked at me, his lips pressed into a thin, rigid line?I'm not really in the mood for playing a
game
?C'mon, Ian,? Jamie urged
?I want to watch,? I said?But it will be? boring if one team has too much advantage?You really are the worst liar I've ever fendi big met
But he got up and started stretching with Wes
Paige set up goalposts, four lanterns
I tried to get to my feet?I was right in the middle of the fieldNobody noticed me in the dim
lightAll around, the atmosphere was upbeat now, charged with anticipationThis was something they needed, odd as it seemed to me
I was able to get onto all fours, and then I pulled my good leg forward so I was kneeling on the
badI tried to hop up onto my good leg from thereMy balance was all off, thanks to the
awkward classic chanel handbag weight of my sore leg
Strong hands caught me before I could fall on my faceI looked up, a little rueful, to thank Ian
The words caught in my throat when I saw that it was Jared whose arms held me up
?You could have just asked for help,? he said conversationally
?I ?? I cleared my throatI didn't want to??
?Call attention to yourself?? He said the words as if he were truly curiousThere was no
accusation in themHe helped me hobble toward the cave entrance
I shook my head once?I didn't want to? make louis vuitton neo cabby anyone do anything, out of courtesy, that they
didn't want to do That didn't explain it exactly right, but he seemed to understand my
meaning
?I don't think Jamie or Ian would begrudge you a helping hand
I glanced back at them over my shoulderIn the low light, neither had noticed I was gone yet
They were bouncing the ball off their heads, and laughing when Wes caught it in the face
?But they're having funI wouldn't want to interrupt that

| Even then, my voice was just a breath?What
happened to them??
?Luckily, the host was unable to stay conscious long enough to inflict real damageKevin was
relocated, into an immature host this timeThe troublesome host was in poor repair, and it was
decided there wasn't much point in saving him
?Kevin is seven human years old now and perfectly normal? aside from the fact that he kept
the name Kevin, that isHis guardians are taking great care that he is heavily exposed to music,
and that is coming along well? The last was added as if it were good news?news that could
somehow cancel out the rest
?Why?? I cleared my throat so that my voice could gain some volume?Why have these risks
not been rolex submariner 50th anniversary shared??
?Actually,? the Seeker broke in, ?it is very clearly stated in all recruitment propaganda that
assimilating the remaining adult human hosts is much more challenging than assimilating a
childAn immature host is highly recommended
?The wordchallenging does not quite cover Kevin's story,? I whispered
?Yes, well, you preferred to ignore the recommendation She held up her hands in a
peacemaking gesture when my body tensed, causing the stiff fabric on the narrow bed to crackle
softly?Not that I blame youChildhood is extraordinarily tediousAnd you are clearly not the
average soulI have every confidence that this is well within your abilities to handleThis is just
another hostI'm sure you will replica cartier tank have full access and control shortly
By this point in my observations of the Seeker, I was surprised that she'd had the patience to
wait for any delay, even my personal acclimatizationI sensed her disappointment in my lack of
information, and it brought back some of the unfamiliar feelings of anger
?Did it not occur to you that you could get the answers you seek by being inserted into this
body yourself?? I asked
My eyebrows pulled up automatically
?Another nickname,? the Healer explained?For those who do not complete a life term in their
host
I nodded in understandingWe'd had a name for it on my other worldsOn no world was it
smiled uponSo I quit quizzing the Seeker and gave her what I mulberry roxanne could
?Her name was Melanie StryderShe was born in Albuquerque, New MexicoShe was in Los
Angeles when the occupation became known to her, and she hid in the wilderness for a few
years before finding? HmmmSorry, I'll try that one again laterThe body has seen twenty
yearsShe drove to Chicago from?? I shook my head?There were several stages, not all of
them aloneThe vehicle was stolenShe was searching for a cousin named Sharon, whom she
had reason to hope was still humanShe neither found nor contacted anyone before she was
spottedBut?? I struggled, fighting against another blank wall?I think? I can't be sure? I
think she left a note? somewhere
?So she expected someone would look for her?? the Seeker chanel jumbo bag asked eagerlyIf she does not rendezvous with?? I gritted my teeth, truly
fighting nowThe wall was black, and I could not tell how thick it wasI battered against it,
sweat beading on my foreheadThe Seeker and the Healer were very quiet, allowing me to
concentrate
I tried thinking of something else?the loud, unfamiliar noises the engine of the car had made,
the jittery rush of adrenaline every time the lights of another vehicle drew near on the roadI
already had this, and nothing fought meI let the memory carry me along, let it skip over the
cold hike through the city under the sheltering darkness of night, let it wind its way to the
building where they'd found me

assumes it was one of those whipsaw squalls that can come out of south Nevis, but it?s hard to
swallowNot a squall necessarily, but the circumstances
?Which were??

?His usual two crewmen weren?t with himHe dismissed them at the yacht club, saying he
wanted to take the boat out by himself, yet he told Henry he was going out for the running big

?Which means he would?ve had to have a crew,? interrupted the Canadian physician
?Yes, he would?ve,? agreed the owner of Tranquility Inn?You can?t fish the big fellas gucci watches for women and
skipper a boat at the same time?at least the CG couldn?tHe was afraid to take his eyes off the
charts
?But he could read them, couldn?t he?? asked Jason?The charts??
?As a navigator, he was no Captain Bligh sailing by the Pacific stars, but he was good enough to
stay out of trouble
?He was told to go out alone,? said Bourne?Ordered to rendezvous with a boat in waters that
called for him to really keep his eyes on the charts Jason suddenly realized that the doctor?s
nimble fingers were no longer touching his neck; instead, there was the constricting bandage and
the physician was standing beside him looking down?How are we doing?? asked Bourne, looking
up, an appreciative smile creasing his lips
?We?re done,? said the Canadianthen I think we?d better meet later, for a drink, all right??
?Good heavens, ceramic chanel you?re just getting to the good part
?It?s not good, Doctor, it?s not good at all, and I?d be a very ungrateful patient?which I?m
not?if I even unwittingly let you hear things I don?t think you should hear
The elderly Canadian locked his eyes with Jason?s?You mean that, don?t you? In spite of
everything that?s happened, you really don?t want to involve me any furtherAnd you?re not
playing melodramatic games, secrecy for secrecy?s sake?an old dodge for inferior doctors,
incidentally?but you?re really concerned, aren?t you??
?I guess I am
?Considering what?s happened to you, and I don?t just mean these past few hours, which I?ve
been a part of, but what the scars on your body tell me you?ve been through before, it?s rather
remarkable that you can be concerned for anyone but yourselfYou?re a strange man, chanel jumbo flap bag Mr
At times you even sound like two different people
?I?m not strange, Doctor,? said Jason Bourne, momentarily closing his eyes, his lids briefly
tight?I don?t want to be strange or different or anything exotic at allI want to be as normal and
ordinary as the next fellow, no games at allI?m just a teacher, and that?s all I want to beBut in the
present circumstances, I have to do things my way
?Which means I leave for my own benefit??
?Yes, it does

mandatory?My brother-in-law?s a doctor, tooLike my sister, he?s got a Ph he speaks a couple
of Oriental languages and is a full omega automatic seamaster watch professorPlaces like Harvard, McGill and Yale have been after

| I had an
inspiration then, and I shot the ball through his goal, guessing it would probably be the last time
I got to do it don't like this idea
I'll bet it works, though
I put the ball back at center field?You win, and you can sleep in my room while they're gone
I needed a good night's rest With a grunt, he launched the ball past me so hard that it rebounded off the
distant, invisible wall behind my goal and came back to us?Was that wide??
?No, it looked dead center to me
?One?three,? Ian announced
It took him fifteen minutes to win, but at least I got to really workI even squeezed in one more
goal, tiffany cross of which I was proudI was gasping for air when he stole the ball from me and sailed it
through my goalposts for the last time
?Good game,? I huffed
?Tired?? he asked, the innocence in his tone a bit overdone?I think
I'm ready for bed myself He leered in a melodramatic way
?Aw, Mel, you know I'm joking
Lily eyed us, mystified
?Jared's Melanie objects to me,? Ian told her, winking?That's? interesting
?I wonder what's taking Wes so long?? Ian muttered, not taking much notice of her reaction
?Should we go find out? I could use some water
?Me, too,? I agreed Lily didn't move from where she was half sprawled fake chanel bag on the floor
As we entered the narrow tunnel, Ian threw one arm lightly around my waist
?You know,? he said, ?it's really unfair for Melanie to makeyou suffer when she's angry at me
?Since when are humans fair??
?Good point
?Besides, she'd be glad to make you suffer, if I'd let her
?That's nice about Wes and Lily, don't you think?? he saidThey both seem very happyWes finally got the girl?Do you think
Melanie would make you very uncomfortable if I were to kiss you right now??
I stiffened for a second, then took a deep breath
We heard Wes shouting at the same timeHis voice came from the end of the tunnel, chloe bags paddington getting
closer with each word
?They're back! Wanda, they're back!?
It took me less than a second to process, and then I was sprintingBehind me, Ian mumbled
something about wasted effort
I nearly knocked Wes down
And I was off againI flew into the big garden room with my eyes already searchingIt wasn't
hard to find themJamie was standing at the front of a group of people near the entrance to the

?Did ya miss me??

| Krupkin shook his
head in weary irritation as he hung up the telephoneThe movement caused Jason to turn toward
the Soviet?My second commissar was not talkative on this occasion, MrHaste and
orders took precedent
?What do you mean??
?We must leave immediately Krupkin glanced at the bedroom to the left and raised his voice
?Aleksei, come out here! Quickly! I tried to tell him that you?d just this second arrived,?
continued the KGB man, turning back to Jason, ?but he was having none of itLeven went so far as
to say that one of you was already taking a shower, and his only comment was ?Tell him to get out
and get dressed ? Conklin limped through the bedroom door, his shirt unbuttoned and blotting new chanel bags his
wet face with a towel?Sorry, Aleksei, we must go
?Go where? We just got here
?We?ve appropriated a flat on the Sadovaya?that?s Moscow?s ?Grand Boulevard,? Mr
It?s not the Champs-Elys?es, but neither is it inconsequentialThe czars knew how to build
?What?s over there?? pressed Conklin
?Commissar number one,? replied Krupkin?We?ll be using it as our, shall we say, our
headquartersA smaller and rather delightful annex of Dzerzhinsky Square?only nobody knows
about it but the five of usSomething?s come up and we?re to go there immediately
?That?s good enough for me,? said Jason, putting his drink down on the copper dry bar
?Finish it,? said Alex, rushing awkwardly back into the bedroom?I?ve got to get the soap tiffany canada out of
my eyes and restrap my lousy boot
Bourne picked up the glass, his eyes straying to the Soviet field officer who looked after
Conklin, his brow lined, his expression curiously sad?You knew him before he lost his foot, didn?t
you?? asked Jason quietlyWe go back twenty-five, twenty-six yearsIstanbul, Athens, Rome He was a remarkable adversaryOf course, we were young then, both slender and
quick and so taken with ourselves, wanting so desperately to live up to the images we envisioned
for ourselvesIt was all so long agoWe were both terribly good, you knowHe was actually better
than me, but don?t you ever tell him I said soHe always saw the broader picture, the longer road
than I sawIt was the gucci book bags Russian in him, of course
?Why do you use the word ?adversary??? asked Jason?It?s so athletic, as if you?d been playing
a gameWasn?t he your enemy??
Krupkin?s large head snapped toward Bourne, his eyes glass, not warm at all?Of course he was
my enemy, MrBourne, and to clarify the picture for you, he still is my enemyDon?t, I beg you,
mistake my indulgences for what they are notA man?s weaknesses may intrude on his faith but
they do not diminish itI may not have the convenience of the Roman confession to expiate my sins
so as to go forth and sin again despite my belief, but I do believeMy grandfathers and
grandmothers were hanged?hanged, sir?for stealing chickens from a Romanov prince?s estate

Few, if any, of my ancestors were ever given the privilege of the most rudimentary schooling,
forget educationThe Supreme Soviet revolution of Karl Marx and Vladimir Lenin made possible
the beginning of all thingsThousands upon thousands of mistakes have been made?many
inexcusable, many more brutal?but a beginning was madeI, myself, am both the proof and the
error of it
?I?m not sure I understand that

| He may not approve of what I?m doing, but if he?s honest with himself, he
knows that the bottom line is the Jackal and me
The aged black studied his pleading client in the hallway, in the afternoon shadows?You in
good shape, Br?er Rabbit?? he asked?You still got juices??
?I run six miles every morning and I press weights at least twice a week in the university gym?
?
?I didn?t hear thatI don?t want to know anything about colleges or universities
?Then you didn?t hear itYou look in pretty fair condition, I?ll say that
?It?s deliberate, Cactus,? said Jason quietly?Sometimes it?s just a telephone suddenly ringing,
or Marie?s late or out with the kids and I can?t reach her or someone I don?t know stops me in the
street to ask directions, and it comes chanel jewellery back?he comes backAs long as there?s a
possibility that he?s alive, I have to be ready for him because he won?t stop looking for meThe
awful irony is that his hunt is based on a supposition that may not be trueHe thinks I can identify
him, but I?m not sure I couldNothing?s really in focus yet
?Have you considered sending that message to him??
?With his assets maybe I?ll take an ad out in the Wall Street Journal?Dear Old Buddy Carlos:
Boy, have I got news for you ?
?Don?t chortle, Jason, it?s not inconceivableYour friend Alex could find a wayHis gimp
doesn?t affect that head of hisI believe the fancy word is serpentine
?Which is why if he hasn?t tried it there?s a reason
?I guess I can?t argue with thatSo let?s go to work, Br?er RabbitWhat did you have montre cartier in
mind?? Cactus led the way through a wide archway toward a door at the rear of a worn out living
room replete with ancient furniture and yellowed antimacassars?My studio isn?t as elegant as it
was but all the equipment?s thereYou see, I?m sort of semi-retiredMy financial planners worked
out a hell of a retirement program with great tax advantages, so the pressure?s not so great
?You?re only incredible,? said Bourne
?I imagine some people might say that, the ones not doin? timeWhat did you have in mind??
?Pretty much myselfNot Europe or Hong Kong, of courseJust papers, actually
?So the Chameleon retreats to another disguise
Jason stopped as they approached the door?That was something else I forgotThey used to call
me that, didn?t they??

?Chameleon? They sure did and not without cause, as they saySix people could come faceto-
face with our boy Bourne and there?d be six different descriptionsWithout a jar of makeup,
incidentally
?It?s all coming back, Cactus
?I wish to almighty God that it didn?t have to, but if it does, you make damn sure it?s all back
Come on into the magic room
Three hours and twenty minutes later the magic was completedDavid Webb, Oriental scholar
and for three years Jason Bourne, assassin, had two additional aliases with passports, driver?s
licenses and voter registration cards to confirm the identitiesAnd since no cabs would travel out to
Cactus?s ?turf,? an unemployed neighbor wearing several heavy gold chains around his neck and
wrists j12 chanel diamond watch drove Cactus?s client into the heart of Washington in his new Cadillac Allant?
Jason found a pay phone in Garfinkel?s department store and called Alex in Virginia, giving him
both aliases and selecting one for the Mayflower hotelConklin would officially secure a room
through the management in the event that summer reservations were tightFurther, Langley would
activate a Four Zero imperative and do its best to furnish Bourne with the material he needed,
delivering it to his room as soon as possibleThe estimate was a minimum of an additional three
hours, no guarantees as to the time or authenticityRegardless, thought Jason, as Alex reconfirmed
the information on a second direct line to the CIA, he needed at least two of those three hours
