- A-a-a! - it is hardly audible among awful noise has cried Jurkovsky.
Bulls, convulsively clinging to roughnesses of soil, has seen, how the earth near to "Boy" has revealed, and fire column has
shot up. In a flaring haze it was visible, as caterpillars vzdyblennogo the conveyor as has risen have without restraint twirled
and Ioganych has again fallen prone. Intolerable heat has captured Bykova, has got through siliketovuju a suit fabric. Almost
fainting. Bulls has risen to the feet, hardly keeping balance, has made some wrong moves to the warped conveyor and has
again fallen - the soil has left from under feet. The roar has instantly abated. Through the sweat which is filling in eyes. Bulls
has seen, how the shivering cracked earth as settles in plavjashchijsja sand the conveyor heated until red is slowly poured
by is dim-red, pepelno-red light.
- A-a-a! - shouted behind Jurkovsky.
Having gritted a teeth, overcoming the gushed weakness, Bulls has forced itself to spread on this plaintive shout. He has
seen black, as if the charred hands Jurkovsky, reaching for it. And it has found in itself(himself) forces to seize them, to rest
against the earth and to drag the geologist far away from crimson bog.
Then he all the same has fainted, but, is visible, for a short while, because, having come to the senses, has found out that
Jurkovsky lies near to it, awkwardly having turned in under itself hands that the heated soil round "Boy" has not had time to
darken yet and the conveyor costs, strongly having tilted, deeply having left in the melted off earth, and the plastic
reservation on it smokes, becoming sulphur and quickly darkening.
Dazzling sine-white strips in the sky have gone out. In ears there was a continuous shrill ring, and Bulls not at once has
understood that it is the radiation counter." Tens, hundreds X-ray ", - has flashed in a brain and the fleeting thought has
disappeared. He has risen to the feet, has picked up under mice motionless Jurkovsky (that has powerlessly drooped in his
hands) and has dragged it to"Boy", far away from the bubbling, red film shrouded in pink steam. Steps through forty it has
come across Dauge. Ioganych lay on a back, having seized skrjuchennymi fingers a fabric spetskostjuma on a breast.
Having put Jurkovsky nearby. Bulls has bent down to the friend. Dauge was without consciousness, breathed often, with
rattle. Its bottom part spetskostjuma hung a tatter. Alexey hasty, shivering fingers has turned off the oxygen crane, has
removed a belt from the automatic machine, has hardly drawn a motionless body round a belt to stop access heated, poor
oxygen and air sated with an active dust from the outside. Dauge has moaned, with vshlipom has involved in itself vivifying
gas.
