After another week, the missionaries were told a plane was coming for them, they were taken back to the village. They waited six days, but no plane arrived, so the guerrillas took them back into the jungle again.

The next morning they heard a plane flying overhead. Then what a mad scramble! They were rushed to the village airstrip. As they neared the airstrip, the guerrillas blindfolded them so they couldn't see the plane or the pilot. They were not sure where they were being taken, or what would happen to them next.

That night they were held in a different camp. The next morning the commander went with them again, on a six-hour speedboat ride down the river. There they waited, and waited, even though they weren't sure what they were waiting for.
