Sam tried to keep up with Sasha as they walked through the field of grass toward the car in the distance, but she was a brisk walker, and didn't even bother looking back to see if he was still following. Sam glanced back and could still see the overturned vehicle and the bodies beside it. The carnage left in the wake of whatever was going through Sasha's mind; by whatever caused her to fight members of her own group.
“What the hell was that back there?!” Sam called ahead. “What was that?!”
She didn't answer and just kept walking. He was still holding the pistol in his hand, and still wasn't sure if he should be using it or not. She could be leading him somewhere worse than Ulrich and Roland were taking him. Hell, she could be hand delivering him to Julian Corvus himself as some special favor or as a way of earning the new Black Sun leader's favor.
He tried to think of any possible reasons she would want to save him, and even go so far as killing her own men to see it through. Nothing sprang to mind. She didn't owe him anything. His life certainly shouldn't have mattered more than the lives of her own men.
Sasha protected him, and murdered members of the Black Sun to do it.
Why?
“Those were your friends,” Sam said in bewilderment. “Those were you friends and you gunned them down without a second thought. There wasn't any hesitation at all. Hell, I would say you really wanted to do it ... maybe even were waiting for the chance.”
“They weren't my friends,” Sasha said matter of factly, still maintaining her hasty pace through the field.
“Fine,” Sam said and rolled his eyes. “You shot up your coworkers and colleagues then. Better? Why would you do that? Isn't the Order of the Black Sun going to have to ... I don't know ... punish you or something for that? Aren't they going to be mad?”
“What are you doing?” Sasha balked. “You trying to conduct an interview for one of your big stories, Sam? You trying to use me as your big scoop?”
“No story, though this would make for one hell of a headline,” Sam said. “I'm just trying to wrap my head around how someone could do that. Something so callous...”
“What are you complaining about?” Sasha raised her voice and yelled into the air, letting the breeze take her anger back to the man following her, rather than turn and look him in the eyes. “All you're doing is whining. All you need to know is that I saved your ungrateful little ass. If they brought you to Julian, how do you think that would have turned out for you?”
Sam remembered the pale eyes of Julian Corvus well. That man was unhinged and crueler than most people Sam had met, maybe even most people on the entire planet. The Order of the Black Sun was bad enough before, but with Julian reigning over them, large and in charge, things could only be getting much, much worse since his induction.
