CHAPTER 26

In spirit form and invisible, Markus had heard everything. He drifted back to where Jolan and Wayna waited, and materialized near them. They were right about Leotie. It was going to take longer than he wanted to wait. Yet, this was the first time in decades a worthy challenge had come along. He felt more alive than ever and planned to stir things up. Since Chapa wants to find Keme, I’ll help him and Leotie won’t have anyone to long for anymore.

Markus spoke before Wayna and Jolan. “You two stay with Tala and Izrah, but don’t let them see you. I have some things to take care of.”

“As you wish,” Wayna thought.

Markus shifted into electricity and darted off, streaking through the sky. In seconds, he rushed passed Leotie and found Keme’s camp on the other side of the river. He slowed down into spirit form and observed Keme and the others. Mostly women, children and some young men – a vulnerable group.

Keme walked alongside a young woman. She looked at Keme in a way he’d often seen before and even brought him a piece of dried meat. Yet, Keme didn’t even seem to notice and never smiled, clearly not over the loss of Leotie.

It wasn’t going to be enjoyable having Keme killed off, and he didn’t want Leotie to find out he was responsible for the death of a loved one. Having Chapa do it was the best way of keeping the blame off himself. He only had to find out what they were doing heading south in the night with nothing but fish oil torches for light.

One of the men sat in a sled pulled by two boys. A bandage covered his leg. The boys grumbled about having to haul him and thought he should be tied up on a tree somewhere because he was a scout from Chapa. Markus agreed it was a waste of energy to drag a bungling scout around.

He hovered over them and found some of the women speculating as to whether a small group of soldiers would trade with them – deer meat for muskets. Markus doubted that would go well. Wait, Chapa said they’d killed a small group of soldiers for their supplies and horses.

They had to be the same ones. Keme’s idea was already doomed to fail. An idea of how to tell Chapa their location occurred to him. Markus took a long look at the wounded scout and studied his eyes, lips, nose, memorizing every detail. He sped back to the woods near where Chapa’s group camped. As the sun came up, they were around the camp fire eating breakfast.

Markus used his trained memory to change into the form of the scout and headed for Chapa, waving his hands to catch their attention. As Chapa headed over, Markus couldn’t help but hate him for what they thought about skin walkers. Perhaps he’d kill him for Leotie after he served the purpose of killing Keme. It was a brilliant idea because Leotie would be eternally grateful to him.
