I grabbed the radio.
I keyed dispatch on the emergency channel.
Carla came on.
She knew my voice.
She knew it was the middle of the night.
She asked what I needed.

She went quiet for five seconds and then she said, We're coming.

The helicopter came at 6.40 in the morning.

Two deputies from the sheriff's office, a paramedic.
Mark had come to by that point.
He was still tied up.
He had been quiet for most of the time we had been waiting.
He had asked for water twice.
I had not given him any.
I had sat on a camp chair about ten feet from him with the axe across my lap and I had watched him until the sun came up.
The deputies took him.
