2) Nagging- The sentence I found this word in was: "...she could not silence certain nagging questions." I think nagging means that something keeps returning, like her thoughts. Nagging means to have "a persistent pain or worry."
3) Elusive- The sentence I found this word in was: "I never really did trust the Sphinx, although if you think he is elusive now, you should try tracking down him in my day." Given the background from the sentence I think elusive means to deceive. The definition I found said, "Something that hard to find, achieve, or catch."
4) Futile- The sentence I found this word in was: "I would rather it had been me, I would give anything, anything, but such wishing is futile. Judging by the information in the sentence I think futile means unproductive. The real definition means that something is "pointless".
5) Protocol- The sentence I found this in reads: "None had herd of the incident- a severe breech of protocol." I think protocol means to lie. The definition I found claimed that it meant "offical procedures that are used to govern diplomatic occasions and the affairs of state."
6) Implication- The sentence I found this in reads, ""Happy birthday to you!" Seth exclaimed, his voice full of implications." I think implication means that something is full of many things other than what it appears as. The definition I found claimed that it means "a conclusion that you can draw out of something, even though its not clearly stated."
