Felipe pushed the bolt across on the aqueduct door, the sense of dread making his heart race.
Diego's words echoed."If that dam gives way while I'm in the aqueduct, I'll drown…" Who cared about Zorro? Couldn't he stand up as Diego? He put his life on the line so often he felt indestructible.
Felipe couldn't even tell anyone what Diego had done.
Zzz
The sound of the blast and the trickle of water in the fountain made everyone cheer. Felipe felt hollow. Had Diego gotten out in time? It hadn't seemed long enough.
