Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Sam wakes to the sound of buzzing. At first, he thinks it is a wasp, but he quickly realizes that it is an engine. He wakes Delphy, and they follow the sound to a pond near the cabin. Across the pond, they see two people on dirt bikes riding around a big house. They are shouting something that sounds like “away.” Sam has a bad feeling, but Delphy calls out to them. They do not appear to hear her.
Sam sees flames coming from the big house. The house explodes in flames, which spread to the nearby pine trees. Sam yells that they have to get out of there before the fire spreads to them, and the dirt-bike riders see Sam and Delphy across the pond. Delphy realizes that they are “the ones who started the whole thing” (70), and Sam agrees. He knows that the riders are coming for them. They run to the Jeep.
