JC: Ed Biggers
Part 4: Adjournment
Chapter 21
By
Lazlo Zalezac
Copyright (C) Lazlo Zalezac, 2004
Seated atop his horse, Ed surveyed the canyon taking in the
geological features of the walls around him. Millions of years of
geologic history were exposed for all to see. Geologically, his life
would be represented as a dust speck on the wall of the canyon. It
was humbling to think about it. Speaking aloud to no one in
particular, Ed said, "By the Gods and Goddesses, this is
magnificent."
Nora, still not used to his openness about his feelings, nodded
solemnly. It was a grand sight, as layer after layer of natural
history was laid bare for all to see. As her horse moved a little
under her, she replied, "Yes, it is."
Having forgotten for a moment that he wasn't alone, Ed turned to
look at Nora. She was settled comfortably on her horse, adapting to
the slight movements of the horse with natural adjustments that
were unconscious. He asked, "Getting tired of riding?"
Shaking her head, she replied, "Not really. I can go another hour."
"There's a seep about a half an hour from here. We'll camp there."
She relaxed on the horse, relieved that they would be stopping
soon. Five hours on horseback could be tough on the body,
particularly when you weren't used to riding that much. Odds were
good that her ass would be sore the next morning. At least this
wasn't the first day of the trip, but nearly the last. Smiling, she said,
"That would be perfect. I'll admit that I'm worried about my ass
getting a little sore."
"Sorry about that. I didn't realize that we would take that long to
get back here." They were about to end a very successful trip. She
was amazed at how considerate Ed had been over the duration of
the trip.
They started riding on through the canyon. It was another four
hours to the mouth, but they would make that trip tomorrow. She
watched the canyon floor from habit, a trick she had learned from
Ed for finding good sites. After a few minutes of riding quietly, she
said, "I have really enjoyed this trip. It's so nice to get away from it
all."
"Yes, it is. There are times when I get so fed up with all of my
responsibilities that I just have to get out here in the desert."
The entire trip had been spent with her avoiding discussions about
their lives outside of rock hunting. Nora had hired a private
investigator to check his background. Although she trusted Kim
and her judgement, it was still a good idea to check up on someone
that she was going to be alone with in the desert. She had been
shocked when she learned about Ed and wondered how it was that
she hadn't known about him. She replied, "I know what you mean.
You have no idea what it is like to be a public figure. I'm surprised
that we haven't had a helicopter overhead trying to take pictures of
us."
Laughing, Ed said, "That's why we are here. This is reservation
land and the Chief holds absolute control over who comes on the
land."
Entering the reservation had been quite an experience for Nora.
She was used to having people fawn all over her, but they had been
practically indifferent to her presence. The people on the
reservation had acted like Ed was some sort of holy man and
treated him with the same kind of respect as they showed the Chief
and the tribal Medicine Man. A couple had basically fallen all over
themselves making sure that he was comfortable. Glancing at Ed,
she asked, "Do they always treat you with that kind of respect?"
"I am a member of the Carter Clan," replied Ed as though that
explained everything. As far as he was concerned it was
explanation enough.
It didn't tell her anything. She asked, "What does that mean?"
"John funded the Native American College."
"There was a bit more than that in their treatment of you," she
countered.
"I am a Druid. The Medicine Men of the tribes recognize us as
holy men," replied Ed.
It was easy to forget that he was a Druid out here. He was wearing
blue jeans, western shirt, cowboy boots, and his hat. Sitting on his
horse, he looked exactly like a cowboy, which made sense since
her investigation had shown that he used to work as a cowboy. She
replied, "It seems to me that you've known this particular tribe for
a while."
"Yes. We have a standing deal that I give them an equal share of
the stones collected. That's why I have insisted that we take three
samples of each mineral we find. They like to sell them to the
tourists at some of the trading post stores on the border of the
reservation," replied Ed.
"Why don't they mine the stones themselves?"
Ed pulled up his horse and answered, "They don't want to hurt the
land."
After pulling ahead of him, she pulled up her horse and turned to
look at him. She asked, "So why do they let you look?"
"I don't hurt the land. A few samples here and there is a far
different thing than a mine."
She sat there for a moment thinking about what he said. It made
sense, but she knew that he was opening a mine. Rather than
pursue the topic further, she turned to look around. She heard Ed
climb off his horse and turned back to look at him as she asked,
"What?"
"We're here."
She looked around and noticed the small patch of green plants
along the canyon wall; a sure sign of a seep, a place where water
collected under the ground. Digging a small hole there would give
them access to the water, which they would use to water the
horses. Ed had been careful to take them from seep to seep as they
traveled. They were good places to camp as it made watering the
horses much easier.
She climbed down and felt the muscles in her legs complain.
Stretching, she said, "I'm going to be stiff tonight."
In a teasing voice, Ed said, "We'll turn you into a bow-legged
cowgirl before long."
Laughing, she replied, "That would kill my acting career."
Looking over at her, Ed asked, "Is that a bad thing?"
The question shocked her. He was the first one to realize that her
acting career was the hobby and collecting rocks was her passion.
She looked over at him and said, "The pay is so good."
"I bet that you spend most of your money leading a lifestyle that
you detest."
Shocked by his insights, she asked, "Why do you say that?"
Looking at the canyon walls around him, he said, "You are too
comfortable here to be comfortable surrounded by lots of people."
Stunned, she stared at him in disbelief. In one insightful sentence
he had laid bare a fundamental truth that she had worked so hard to
hide in California. She looked down at the ground and said,
"True."
"So what are you going to do about it?"
"I don't know. I feel trapped by my job," she answered. She owned
a house that required her to work to continue the payments. Her
clothes were expensive, often costing several thousand dollars for a
single outfit. When you lead a lifestyle intended to impress, you
hemorrhaged money faster than you could earn it.
"You can always sell your property and move out of that area after
your next movie," replied Ed.
"What about everyone that depends on me for a living?"
"Will they get other jobs? Would they stand beside you if your
career started to fail?"
The question made her think about what she really wanted. Was
she as trapped as she let people make her think she was? Would
they stay with her if bad things happened? The answer to that last
question was that the majority of people that leeched off her would
be gone in a second. Maybe two people would be upset, but they
would get on with their lives. She smiled as she looked at Ed and
realized that his questions were exactly what she had needed to
hear. Clearly, he wasn't expecting her to answer as he had started
to unsaddle the horses and set up camp.
The two went to work establishing a camp. She laid out the
bedrolls and he set up the latrine. There wasn't any significant
amount of dead brush with which to build a fire for cooking. They
could get a reasonable fire for lighting the night, but not to cook.
After searching far and wide, Ed said, "Cold dinner tonight."
Nora said, "I can make some soup. I have a small can of sterno."
The idea of having a cup of hot soup sounded good to Ed. He
hadn't thought about packing sterno for cooking in the field.
Nodding, he replied, "That sounds good."
Dinner was soup, canned fruits, some left over rolls with canned
deviled ham, and accompanied with tang. It was an odd selection
of food, but it filled the stomach and was easy to make. It didn't
take long to eat, so the pair was done with their dinner well before
sunset. Clean up was a simple affair, both of them shared the duties
and the job was soon done.
Ed went to work setting up a fire that would burn long and produce
a constant low level light around the camp. Laying down on their
individual bedrolls, they watched the sky slowly darken. The
western horizon was not visible and being in the canyon meant that
dark arrived early. Nora, rolling over onto her side, asked, "We've
been camping for four days and tomorrow is the last day. You
haven't hit on me once throughout the entire trip. Why?"
Glancing over in her direction, Ed replied, "It's not time for that
yet."
"What do you mean?"
Yawning, Ed answered, "I want to make sure that if we sleep
together, then it will be for all the right reasons. I want you to
know why I'm doing it. Right now, you'd think the wrong thing."
"What? I'm not pretty enough for you?" she asked irritated at his
attitude. She knew that there were lots of men that jerked off to
pictures of her.
"You're pretty enough. I'm not all that interested in looks even
though my wives are three of the most beautiful women in the
world," replied Ed.
She knew about his inability to lie. Sitting up to face him across
the fire, she asked, "Don't you want to sleep with me?"
Pursing his lips as he gave careful thought to what he was about to
say, he finally answered, "More than you can imagine."
"So why don't you?"
Laughing at her lack of understanding, Ed said, "Because you don't
understand why I'm not sleeping with you."
Frustrated, she threw herself back on the bedroll and growled out
her frustration. This man was infuriating. Laying on the bedroll,
she looked up at the sky as the stars finally came out. Even in the
canyon, the number of stars overhead were amazing. It was
impossible to see this many stars in LA.
Ed was quiet as he considered his situation. Nora was a beautiful
woman who believed that all men were interested in her for her
body. It was a glorious body, but she had a much better mind than
she allowed others to see. Over the past few days, she had shown
signs of brilliance, but would quash it when he commented on it.
He made love to the woman and not her body. She hid behind her
body and he wasn't going to make love to her until she stopped
hiding behind it.
He liked Nora almost as much as he liked Kim. In many ways, she
was as good of a rock-hunting partner as Kim and in a few ways
she was better. She didn't feel a need to talk as much as Kim but
knew how to stay quiet and listen. She was just as enthusiastic
about finding a good sample as anyone else. That was always an
advantage in a partnership.
The night sky slowly darkened, but the stars shone brighter. In a
couple of hours, the moon would reach a height where it could be
seen from within the canyon. Ed sat up and put a few more little
branches on the fire. They would slowly burn, giving forth enough
light to see around the camp.
Settling back on his bedroll, he continued to look up into the night
sky. Finally, she said, "How am I supposed to know when you
would sleep with me without letting me know?"
Knowing that the question would burn within her for a long time,
Ed replied, "You will know when you have accepted yourself as
you really are."
She frowned and lay back down on her bedroll. Ed slowly dropped
off to sleep and didn't hear the questions of frustrations that she
asked before realizing that he was asleep. Getting up, she
undressed in the hope that the sight of her naked body in the
morning would tempt him into relieving her need for physical
release. Lying down, she fingered herself to an unsatisfying
orgasm and fell asleep afterwards.
Ed woke in the morning before Nora. That didn't surprise him
since she tended to wake up well after him. He looked over at her
and saw that she was sleeping naked atop her bedroll. It was a
gorgeous body and one that most men would pay every cent they
had to sleep with. It was a shame that the woman was trapped
within the body, unable to expose the real person inside.
It took him a little time to build a fire with the small amount of
wood that remained. It would be just enough to make two servings
of Greek Coffee. He didn't want to go through her pack to locate
the sterno as that was her property. Filling a cup with a little water,
a couple of spoons of fine ground coffee, and some sugar was all
that was required. Once the fire had consumed the majority
branches, he set the cup on the few coals that had formed. It wasn't
much, but it was enough to boil half a cup of coffee. Once the
coffee was started, Ed sat back and watched Nora as she slept.
Asleep, the real self, the insecure, focused, and ambitious woman,
was evident in her body and face. Ed appreciated the chance at
having a glimpse into the real woman.
Wandering over to the latrine, Ed took the opportunity to take a
leak. There are times when the first piss of the day feels so good
and this was one of those times. Finished with his business, he
zipped up his pants and headed back to the fire. After using a baby
wipe to clean his hands, Ed checked out the coffee and found that
it was ready. Taking a second cup, he poured half of the coffee in
it.
Sipping the hot strong coffee, he felt the caffeine kick in and could
feel his mind starting to clear. Leaning over, he moved the cup
with the rest of the coffee off all the coals but one. That single coal
would keep it warm until she woke. Finishing his cup, he rinsed it
out and went over to water the horses.
Watering the horses was a simple matter of clearing out the hole
that he had dug the night before. He took the horses over there
giving them turns at the hole. As they drank the water, the hole
slowly refilled. Once they were watered, he feed them some of the
oats from the pack. While they were eating out of the feedbags, he
checked their hooves to make sure that there weren't any problems.
All four horses were in excellent condition.
Returning to the fire, he found Nora watching him with a frown.
Taking another cup out of the pack, he poured the remaining coffee
into it and handed it to her. She accepted the cup, but didn't bother
to say thanks. It only took him a minute to clean the cup in which
he had brewed the coffee. Reaching into the pack, he pulled out
two packages of pop tarts and threw one of them to Nora. Still
naked, she tried posing to get his attention but he was busy trying
to get the pop tarts open. She had no problem getting hers open;
she shredded it in frustration.
Munching on his breakfast, Ed looked around the camp. They
would be moving out in an hour and still had to clean up the site.
He wondered how long it would take for Nora to get dressed. He
chuckled when he glanced up at her and saw the angry look she
was giving him. Politely, he asked, "Would you like another one?"
"No, I don't want another one."
Nodding his head, he replied, "Okay. I hope that you don't get
dressed. I'll enjoy watching you ride."
She turned to yell at him, but caught the huge grin on his face. She
realized how ridiculous the situation was and that it was time for
her to start acting like a grownup. She went over to her clothes and
dressed. Breaking camp didn't take much time once they started
working together.
A couple of hours hunting for samples passed before their rock
hunt came to an end. They had to ride to the truck, load the horses
into the four-horse trailer, and visit with the Chief. As they rode
out of the canyon, Ed asked, "So are you willing to come out here
with me again?"
Despite her frustration, Nora had never before had so much fun
collecting rocks. It was as though he were psychic the way that he
could find great samples. Previously, she had spent twice as long
in the field and found only half the variety of samples that she had
found this trip. She replied, "Of course, I'll go rock hunting with
you again."
Smiling, he said, "I'm glad."
"Really?" That he would actually be glad that she would go with
him again surprised her. She wasn't sure how he felt about her. His
refusal to have sex with her did not make sense to her. Most men
would have been more than happy to have sex with her.
"Yes, really."
When they reached the truck, they fed and watered the horses
before leading them into the horse trailer. Getting into the cool air
of the truck was almost a shock to the system after so many days
out in the desert. Although it was only an hour drive to the Chief's
house, their bodies would be used to the cooler temperature by the
time they arrived there.
The Chief welcomed the pair into his house with a simple wave of
his hand. They both carried their saddlebags and with care,
emptied the contents onto the kitchen table. There were sixty-three
different kinds of rocks with three samples of each kind. Ed pulled
out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and offered one to the
Chief. After each man lit a cigarette they turned their attention to
the rocks. Drawing one of the samples, the Chief looked at it and
set it down on the table in front of him. So far, they had not spoken
a single word. When Nora didn't move, Ed said, "Take a sample of
the same kind as Chief Daniels just took."
Nora looked at the sample in front of the Chief and took a sample
of the same type of rock as the Chief. When she had done that, Ed
took the remaining sample of that type. Nora sat there waiting for
the Chief to take another sample. After a minute, Ed said, "Now
you get to choose the first sample."
The rest of the process of dividing up the samples collected was
performed quietly, with no one saying a word. Each took a turn
pulling the first sample. Once the center pile of samples was
cleared, Ed put out his cigarette in the ashtray, stood up, and shook
the hand of the Chief. The Chief said, "It is always good to deal
with an honest man."
"Thank you. I like doing business with you, Chief Daniels."
The Chief turned to Nora and said, "I hope that you are satisfied
with the samples you collected. Maybe you will come here again
with Ed."
"I'll be very happy to return here with Ed," replied Nora as she
looked at the Chief.
He smiled at her and said, "I enjoyed your last movie, Nora
Turner."
The Hollywood Movie Star in her came out. Sitting up straighter in
pride, she replied, "Why thank you, Chief Daniels. I'm quite proud
of that movie."
Raising an eyebrow, Ed looked at her and shook his head. The
Chief noticed and said, "She is young. It takes a long time for a
brave to learn humility."
Nodding at the older man's patience, Ed said, "That comes with
experience."
Frowning, Nora listened to the exchange between the two men. It
dawned on her that they were talking about how she craved
attention and praise for her work. That irritated her. She worked
hard for everything she had achieved. She was about to say
something when she realized with whom she was talking. The
Chief ruled over an entire tribe and had undoubtedly earned their
respect. Ed was a Druid that had affected so many lives and could
call world leaders on his cell phone. She asked, "Is it not good to
take pride in your accomplishments?"
After glancing at Ed, Chief Daniels answered, "There is the pride
that you feel and the pride that you announce. The first is good
while the second is begging for attention. Many young braves feel
they have to earn a reputation as warriors and will boast of their
deeds. Other braves perform the same acts and let others sing their
praise."
Ed added, "It is rare to have a brave that can laugh at himself for
his failures."
Nodding, the Chief patted Ed on the shoulder and said, "Those are
the ones who become great leaders."
Nora had listened to the men exchange their views. At first, she
thought that they didn't know how Hollywood worked. You had to
promote yourself to get the next job. That meant going to all the
right parties and telling everyone how good you were. As she
thought about it, she realized that none of the truly great stars
attended those same parties. Rather than commenting, she sat there
quietly listening to them.
The Chief stood and went into the kitchen. After a few minutes, he
returned with two packages wrapped in aluminum foil and handed
them to Ed. He said, "Susan made this flat bread for you. Harry
shot a nice buck and wrapped a roast for you."
Ed accepted the gift and nodded his acceptance. Reaching into his
backpack, he pulled out a toolkit the size of a credit card. Handing
it to the Chief, he said, "Make sure that Harry gets this."
Chief Daniels looked at the toolkit and said, "Nice. He will like it."
Reaching into the backpack, Ed brought out a sheet of paper.
Handing that over, he said, "Marguerite gave me a recipe for duck.
I think that Susan will like it."
"You are a good man and know the ways of our people, Ed,"
replied the Chief as he set the two gifts on the table. Leading the
couple to the door, he said, "Give the regards of our tribe to John
Carter. We have two of our tribe entering law school."
"The tribe grows stronger," replied Ed.
"Yes, it does," replied Chief Daniels.
At the door, the two men shook hands. Ed reached in his pocket
and pulled out the open pack of cigarettes. He had opened it when
they had come out and now he handed the pack over to the Chief.
Nora had watched the entire discussion and transaction with wide
eyes hardly understanding a single thing the men had said. She
knew they were speaking English, but it seemed like the topic of
conversation kept switching with every sentence. Ed led her to the
truck and said, "We'll go back to the Auction House and drop off
the horses. Then we can go back to my place and have dinner."
Nora nodded and got in the truck with Ed. Ed drove to the Auction
House where he kept his horses. Nora did not know that this was
where Ed used to work. When they reached there, it was late but an
auction was being held. Two men were herding cattle through the
auction pens, the auctioneer was giving his patter, and Greg Dow
was keeping a close eye on things. Greg, the young man that had
helped them catch the College Serial Killers, noticed their arrival
and came over to help unload the horses.
Ed climbed out of his truck and turned to Greg. With a large smile,
he said, "Greg. You are looking good. This desert air must agree
with you."
Nora walked around the truck in time to hear Greg answer, "I
never would have thought of running this kind of business when I
was in school. I bless the day that I met you."
Noticing the arrival of Nora, Ed said, "Nora Turner, this is Greg
Dow. Greg, this is Nora Turner. I met Greg when I was writing my
dissertation."
As Nora and Greg started to talk, Ed went to the horse trailer and
started leading the horses out. They were more than ready to get
out of the trailer and into the corral where there was fresh water. It
only took Ed about ten minutes to take care of the getting the
horses unloaded. After he put feedbags filled with oats on the
horses, he started combing his horse. When he was done, he was
surprised to find Greg and Nora combing two of the other horses.
Wandering over to the last horse, he started to work on it. After
five days out in the desert, all four horses looked in better shape
than when he had picked them up.
When he finished the last horse, he went over to where Greg and
Nora were talking. He arrived just in time to hear Greg say, "He
got stabbed twice."
"Who got stabbed?" asked Ed wondering if there had been some
kind of incident while he was gone.
"You."
"Oh, yeah," replied Ed realizing what Greg had been telling her.
He turned to Nora and said, "You should have seen Greg. He was a
regular hero. Protected his girlfriend and kept an insane woman
from killing me. Those killers would have kept killing more people
if he hadn't acted as he did."
Nora realized that Ed had just deflected all discussion about his
role in the incident and gave credit to Greg. It was at that time, that
she realized that Greg hadn't mentioned his role in the events. She
thought about the words of the Chief and realized that these men
didn't boast about themselves, but let others do it for them. Greg
changed the subject and said, "I'm still learning to ride, but those
cowboys over there keep giving me the meanest orneriest horses in
the entire county. Yesterday, I got on one and kicked it like you're
supposed to and the damn thing took off running. I was left sitting
on thin air watching the ass end of that horse disappear."
Ed and Nora laughed at the description of riding the horse. Ed said,
"Let me guess. They gave you Nevada's race horse to ride."
"Yep. Took the men three hours to chase down that animal,"
answered Greg as he laughed.
Ed knew that Greg could actually ride pretty well. The men in the
yard were just playing jokes on him and he was letting them do it.
Each of those men knew that in a pinch they could count on Greg
to do the right thing by them. Ed asked, "So when are you going to
show them how well you can really ride?"
"Aw, they know," replied Greg with a crooked smile. He had
worked to earn their respect and suffered all of the new guy pranks
when he first started. Nevada and Ed had warned him what to
expect and how he could earn the respect of the men that would
work for him.
Finished with the horses, Ed said his farewells to Greg and went
over to the truck. Nora followed after him and got into the
passenger seat. As Ed was pulling out of the auction house, she
said, "Seems that you have helped a few people around here."
"I've helped a few. Most people credit me with far more than I
actually have done," replied Ed. Ed was telling the truth as he
knew it.
Nora said, "I noticed that when Greg was talking about you, that
you changed the subject to Greg. He then changed the subject to a
joke about himself."
Glancing over at Nora, Ed nodded and said, "Greg is a good kid.
He's turned into quite a manager. Those men that work for him will
walk through fire to help him out of a jam."
What was it that the Chief had said? He was proud of his
accomplishments to himself, but didn't beg for attention. He could
laugh at himself and that would make him a great leader. That had
described Greg and now Ed was saying that Greg was a real leader
for the men that worked for him. She caught Ed looking at her and
realized that he had a good idea what she was thinking.
They pulled into the driveway to the house and were flagged down
by Bob who was waiting for them in the driveway. Concerned that
something bad might have happened to one of the wives or one of
the kids, Ed pulled over immediately and rolled down his window.
Bob stepped over to the open window and said, "I'll park that and
bring your stuff into the house. You guys are probably pretty tired.
George has a guestroom set up for Nora and Marguerite has a
snack for you to eat until dinnertime. Ling has returned to the
house."
"Thanks," replied Ed, relieved that there was nothing wrong at
home. Picking up the two foil-wrapped packages, Ed got out of the
truck while Nora got out the other side. They both stretched to get
their muscles moving again and then went into the house. George
was waiting for them and took Nora up to a guestroom. Ed
wandered into the kitchen and found Marguerite reading a
cookbook while Shauna was cooking. He dropped the two
packages in front on Marguerite and said, "A venison roast and
some Indian Flat Bread."
Smiling up at Ed, Marguerite asked, "Did you give away the duck
recipe?"
"Yes, I did," answered Ed with a grin knowing that Marguerite
would be happy that he had given the recipe to someone that would
actually try it.
"We'll have this tomorrow for lunch, it that's okay."
"No problem," replied Ed.
Excusing himself, he went to his room to shower and change
clothes. It took him about twenty minutes to accomplish both tasks.
Rather than wear his jeans, he just threw on his robe so that he
could take a swim once Nora had gone to bed. Once he was clean
and dressed, he felt a million times better. Then it was time for him
to search for Nora and guide her through the house.
Stepping out of his room, he was met by an amused Ling. She
looked at him for a minute and then said, "She's as pretty as Cathy
described."
"Who?" asked Ed as he looked over his wife. He was happy that
she was home and looked forward to an evening alone with her.
"Nora Turner, the movie star," answered Ling.
"Oh, yeah. She's okay," replied Ed. Leaning over, he kissed Ling
and then said, "You are so much prettier than her."
Ling blossomed under his compliment. She asked, "So did you
sleep with her?"
"No."
"No?"
"Practically drove her crazy because I wouldn't."
Ling was silent for a half a second and then said, "I bet you are
horny as hell."
"That's an understatement."
