                                               8       She was going to win the game of silence, she just knew it.
                                                   Pinch was now poking little twigs into the fire in the center fire

                                                   pit, watching them burn. Omakayas tried not to notice him, but
                                                   his head was so big and fuzzy. Pinch’s hair sprang out with its
                                                   own energy. Crafty eyes in his rough, round face calculated his
                                                   sister’s endurance. He was surely cooking up some mischief.
                                                   Sure enough, Pinch drew the burning wand from the fire and
                                                   laid it innocently next to her ankle—as though she didn’t know

                                                   that it would scorch her if she moved the slightest inch! And
                                                   make her cry out, first, and instantly lose the game! She kicked it
                                                   back at him.
                                                             4
                                               9       “Gego , Pinch,” she nearly warned, but bit her lip.
                                              10       “Eah, eah, eah,” he mouthed the taunt, making an impossibly
                                                   irritating face that almost broke Omakayas’s discipline.

                                                      4 gego (GAY-go): exclamation meaning “stop that”


                                                          taunt  A taunt is something someone says to anger or upset someone else.
