THE ROSE
IT BEGAN TO OPEN before his eyes. It disclosed a dark scarlet furnace, petal upon
secret petal, each blazing with its own secret fury. Jake had never seen anything so
beautiful, so intensely and utterly alive. Now, as he stretched one grime-streaked hand out
toward this won- der, the voices began to sing his own name . . . and a dreadful, deadly fear
began to steal in toward the center of his heart. It was as cold as black ice and as heavy as
stone.
There was something wrong here. He could feel it pulsing in dis- cord, like a deep and ugly
scratch across some formerly priceless work of art. . . . Then the heart of the rose opened
before him, exposing a bright yellow dazzle of light. ... It was a sun: a vast forge blazing at
the center of this rose growing in the alien grass.
The fear returned, only now it had become outright terror. It's right, he thought
incoherently, everything here is right, but it could go wrong. ...
