Something slithering down his back, away from the light.

Something gray-green and faintly glistening.

But then Davila is back with Galindo, and the man is pushing me away from Brennan.

As I watch and hope, some frightened part of my mind goes to work, convincing myself I didn't see anything under his sweater.

What if I did, though?

And what if it has something to do with what happened at the drill site two days ago?

A cheer went up at the announcement, which had come from inside the coring tower, shouted loudly over the sound of machinery.

For safety reasons, most of us weren't supposed to be inside the coring tower during active drilling.

I wasn't sure why they called it a tower.

It was just a large tent with two walls and two open ends.

We had gathered around the tent, dressed in our puffy, brightly colored snowsuits, to witness the moment we broke the record.

No one had ever drilled 4,000 meters into Antarctica.

I had to convert it in my American mind, finding that it was roughly 13,100 feet, a mind-boggling depth in the ice.

Raina, a graying, scrunch-faced Dutchman who was overseeing the project, had been the one to make the announcement.

Now, he stepped out through one open side of the drill tower with his arms raised in triumph.

"'Four thousand meters!'

he called again, a smile lighting up what I could see of his face between his wool cap and the scarf around his neck.

A joyous energy continued to sweep through the crew as the frigid wind battered us and the bright sun reflected off the snow in every direction.

Brennan slapped me on the back with one gloved hand.

Drinks on me tonight!
