THE NIGHT passed slowly for Joe Braddock. The drugs Sandor had shot him with had finally begun to leave his system and with them any real desire to sleep. Joe’s mind was on the morrow, when he would travel with these people across a desert of fire and hell to find a way out – for him and the wayward Centurion.

As he lay in a sleepless stupor on the bedroll, Joe’s eyes wandered over to the Centurion. Sandor kept watch at the cave entrance, the big PSG-1 cradled in his arms. Joe scoffed quietly. He had to admit, the Olympus soldier was not what he expected.

But then, what had he expected?

Somehow, the trooper had managed to gain the trust of a tribe of Syrians who had until recently been fighting against Olympus. The direness of their situation had loosened their hatred for the so called ‘Dark Army’. They had embraced a complete outsider as a temporary leader, despite their religious and cultural beliefs. It baffled Joe to no end how Sandor had accomplished it. The Peacemaker had to admit to a certain admiration for the man.

If Joe could make good on his promise and get Sandor to safety, the man would provide a fountain of knowledge for the Peacemakers. Tactics, inner company operations, leadership; there was no end to what they could learn from the Centurion.

Joe just needed to keep him alive.

He lay for some time, his mind drifting back to what he’d seen the day prior. His heart was still sick at the horrible murders he had witnessed. The look in Dyson’s eyes as he was executed was now a permanent fixture in Joe’s mind.

When sleep finally came, the dreams returned once more to torment him.
