Instead of answering, you say nothing, glaring at spot two inches in front of your toes. The ground is rich black humus with hard black pebbles scattered through it. As your captors argue amongst themselves in Spanish, you wonder if the pebbles are volcanic in origin.
Without warning, the other passengers are loaded back into the van. To your surprise, a thin man in loose-fitting clothes grabs your shoulders and spins you around to face the surrounding jungle. In the brief glimpse you get of his face, you notice his eye lashes are extraordinarily long, giving him a slightly feminine appearance.
Anticipating a shot in the back of your head, you close your eyes tightly and tense up your shoulders. Your hands are cut free, but before you can react, someone kicks you hard right on your tailbone sending you tumbling into a thick stalked, large-leafed shrub that might be an Elephant Ears, or might be something you've never heard of before. As you struggle back to your feet the van drives off, leaving you alone in the middle of a Mexican jungle.
