I had heard of blokes stuck in the reserves that had offered bribes of up to a fiver to get to the front line

Half and hour, he reckons, but knowing the way he drives that BMW bike, I’d put a fiver on 15 minutes

Only Fiver remained solitary

It was Fiver who had stamped and he was now staring intently across the field

on Fiver and now, when he really needed him, he was letting them down
11.
Apparently the only contribution Fiver could make was this beetle-spirited vaporing
12.
He tried to remember that Fiver was undersized and that they had had an anxious time and were all weary
13.
I can see what's troubling Fiver; though he'll get over it, I dare say
14.
"What's that got to do with Fiver?" asked Hazel sharply
15.
Fiver said nothing and continued to stare over the field
16.
"Aren't you coming to learn to carry, Fiver?" asked Hazel at length
17.
" "I'll have nothing to do with it," answered Fiver in a low voice
18.
You're to "I'm the one who ought to get angry," said Fiver
19.
"I tell you I'll have nothing to do with the place," said Fiver
20.
"I wasn't," said Fiver
21.
But still Fiver sat alone
22.
"Why, Fiver, whatever do you mean? What is there to be afraid of?"
23.
"Oh, Fiver, don't be absurd! He just smells the same as the rest of them
24.
So it seemed to be with Fiver now

of them could say a word, he turned and began to speak as though they had asked They followed Fiver up the run and overtook him at the entrance
26.
But each of you, in his own way, is Fiver gazed back at him with eyes that, like a fly's, seemed larger than his head
27.
You've endangered our good Hazel interrupted him and as he did so Fiver started
28.
"Fiver, I won't pretend start in this warren- "Endangered?" cried Fiver
29.
Having no alternative, Fiver accompanied Hazel and Bigwig to the burrow where Hazel had spent the previous night
30.
"We're going to carry the yew berries home in our mouths and eat them in the No!" cried Fiver
31.
"rabbit bodies lying close together? Where was Fiver? He sat up
32.
The shallow hollow in the sandy floor where Fiver had lain was not quite cold: but Fiver was gone
33.
"Fiver!" said Hazel in the dark
34.
He was now regretting that discovering that Fiver was gone, Bigwig had been a comfort and a stand-by
35.
In the darkness before morning and the first shock of now, as he saw Fiver, small and familiar, incapable of hurting anyone or of concealing what he felt, trembling in the wet grass, either from fear or from cold, his anger melted away
36.
He felt only sorry for him and sure that, if they could stay alone together for a while, Fiver would come round to an easier state of mind
37.
Then he turned furiously on Fiver
38.
By an effort of courage against all instinct, Hazel forced himself forward into the gap, with Fiver following
39.
"between the two copses, he could see the cherry tree where two days before he had sat with Blackberry and Fiver in the sunrise
40.
"What is it, Hazel? What's happened? Fiver said--"
41.
"He told Fiver to stop talking about it
42.
" "Fiver, go in," said Hazel
43.
Fiver was not long in the hole
44.
"What was it you were telling me about Cowslip? Did you say he told Fiver to be quiet?" "Yes, Hazel

Fiver came into the warren and told us about the snare, and that poor Bigwig--"
46.
ridiculous, because Fiver was calling out to everybody
47.
' And then he struck at Fiver and scratched his ear
48.
Then, from between two great tussocks of hair grass came Fiver, his eyes blazing with a frantic urgency
49.
Then, in the silence, Bigwig lurched to his feet, swayed a moment, tottered a few steps toward Fiver and fell again
50.
Fiver paid him no heed, but looked from one to another among the rabbits
51.
"I'm still alive, Fiver," he said
52.
Later, Hazel had said that there was nothing for it but to cross the open pasture and under Silver's When Fiver said the iron tree was harmless they believed him
53.
"I'm not saying anything against it, Fiver," replied Acorn, "but we need holes
54.
"It would have been the same any time we came," said Fiver
55.
"He may have made it, but Fiver thought of it for us," answered Hazel
56.
With him in the burrow were Buckthorn, Fiver and Pipkin
57.
"Fiver was right," he thought
58.
And now our journey's over, isn't it? This place is as safe as Fiver said it "But you go in front and take the risks first," answered Blackberry
59.
Fiver, absurdly small beside the hulking Bigwig, turned to Hazel with an air of happy confidence
60.
There could have been no question of trying to persuade him to leave the warren with Hazel and Fiver
61.
"Hazel's done wonders and we owe a lot to Fiver here as well
62.
You talked to the Threarah, didn't you?" "I've heard of you," said Holly, turning to Fiver
63.
"He talked to me," said Fiver
64.
There was a certain amount of talk about Fiver and the rabbits who'd gone with him
65.
Everyone knew that Fiver had said that something bad was going to happen and all sorts of rumors started
66.
That was the worst thing anyone could think of rabbits said there was nothing in it, but some thought that Fiver might have
67.
Great golden "Of course, I never sat down and thought," said Fiver
68.
"Go and get Blackberry and Fiver: we'd better have Silver, too
69.
He One afternoon Hazel, who now shared a burrow with Fiver as in the old days, made his way to Kehaar's lobby without coming above ground
70.
As far as he was able, he kept his anxiety to himself, but one day when they were alone, he asked Fiver whether he thought Kehaar would return
71.
"He will return," said Fiver unhesitatingly
72.
"How can I tell?" replied Fiver
73.
And whatever you were up to, it was so much on your mind that you "So it comes to this," said Fiver
74.
"Risking your life and other rabbits' lives for something that's of little or no value to us," said Fiver
75.
Before Fiver slept, however, he talked again to Hazel about the raid
76.
Hazel, whose talk with Fiver had ended by joining in himself, first as an attacker and then as the cat, staring and quivering for all the world like the Nuthanger tabby
77.
When they came to set out, Fiver was nowhere to be seen
78.
Hazel felt relieved, for he had been afraid that Fiver might say something that would lower their
79.
"Fiver," he said, "there's bad news
80.
Then, as Blackberry said nothing more, he asked, "Do you know what happened?" When Blackberry had told his news, Fiver returned to the warren and went underground to his empty burrow
81.
Fiver did not appear
82.
In the burrow, Fiver slept and woke uneasily through the heat of the day, fidgeting and scratching as the last traces of moisture dried out of the earth above him
83.
He was alone and afraid, yet The mist swirled round Fiver as he crept through thistles and nettles
84.
Fiver came hesitantly narrow hole sunk in the ground at his feet
85.
The man turned to Fiver with the kind of amiability that an ogre might show to a victim whom they both know that he will kill and eat as soon as it suits him to do so
86.
"What are you doing?" answered Fiver, staring and twitching with fear
87.
In the livid, foggy twilight, Fiver stared at the board
88.
Fiver was struggling in a thick cloud of earth, soft and powdery
89.
He shook himself and said, "Who is it?"saying, "Steady, Fiver, steady!" He sat up
90.
Holly and the others have come "Is it evening?" asked Fiver
91.
Holly's still asleep -- he was completely about poor Hazel, he said -- Fiver, you're not listening
92.
"Blackberry," said Fiver, "do you know the place where Hazel was shot?" "Yes, Bigwig and I went and looked at the ditch before we came away
93.
Blackberry led the way to the trampled patch of nettles and Fiver sat still among them, sniffing and looking about him in the silence
94.
At last Fiver began to move along the disconsolately
95.
"The bloody hole!" whispered Fiver
96.
"What is it, Fiver?"
97.
"Hazel's in that hole," said Fiver, "and he's alive

Acorn returned to say that Strawberry felt too ill and that he could find neither Blackberry nor Fiver
99.
"Well, leave Fiver," said Bigwig

But the thought came to him, "Fiver and
