midnight
One of the smells -- there were three of them -- was the Diné who had come in with the Koshare . I remembered the broken plaster on the wall and Tse-tse asleep on the housetops . _ Then _ I hurried . `` It was blue midnight and the scent fresh on the grass as I came up the Rito . I heard a dog bark behind the first kiva , and , as I came opposite Rock-Overhanging , the sound of feet running . I smelled Diné going up the wall and slipped back in my hurry , but as I came over the roof of the kiva a tumult broke out in the direction of Pitahaya 's house . There was a scream and a scuffle .
