Part 4, Chapter 43 Summary

As the resistance begins, Lidia meets with the other fighters, including Halama and Arrow. While Halama compliments her on being their “best” messenger, Arrow immediately puts her to work, sending her three blocks away to speak with Captain Olaf about weapons.

On the street, Lidia can hear gunshots and explosions nearby as she looks around at several buildings that are already abandoned and destroyed. Three soldiers stop her, but she lies and says that she is going to visit her aunt. They let her go, and she walks the rest of the way with her hands in the air.

On the next block, she finds the street empty. Two young boys run by, telling her that she needs to run. They then open fire on German soldiers, who shoot back just as Lidia runs down the street. Eventually, she comes to a sandpile blocking a road. She climbs over it as bullets hit the sandpile next to her, and she finds Hawk on the other side.

Hawk takes her to a building where Captain Olaf is. Hawk leaves her to speak with him and then comes back to tell her Olaf’s message for Halama: He has no weapons to spare. Hawk also tells her that Olaf wants her to stay until night when it will be safer to return.
