23. RANDY BRIGGS

The butt of the M-4 not only silenced me in the midst of my sentence, it broke my front tooth.

My warning was heeded; at least I believed it was. Alex Sans was a smart man. All he needed to hear from me was the word ‘run’.

I expected to die in the moments after that radio call. I was supposed to get the information from Alex, find out where they were, and set him up as Demetrious had done to me.

However, I couldn’t.

Alex was my friend. He was a remarkable man with extraordinary instincts and abilities. If anyone could hide and protect the Phoenix child, he could.

They used my life against me. Told me that they would kill me if I didn’t get the information, that my life meant nothing, but what did I care? I would perhaps be born again.

That’s what I thought.

They couldn’t use Demetrious. He died within two hours after he visited me in my prison room. His body stayed there, reeking of death, for nearly three days.

They came for him when they believed the heard Alex’s voice on the radio.

Actually, they came for me and only removed his body.

They needed and wanted the Phoenix child.

I found out a lot of things in those last few hours with Demetrious, things I needed to know, things Alex needed to know. I had to chance getting that information to him. I knew when they said they’d probably require me to find out his location that I’d get my chance on the radio to either tell him what I found out or tell him to run.

I opted for running, especially after I asked to see the President and found that he had become a Sleeper. Some demented man named Leonard was now running the project.

Demetrious had told me that those from Project Savior were the ones in the New Jerusalem, and with that knowledge, I prayed Alex could find them.

I was still alive because Leonard believed that since Alex asked for me, Alex would eventually negotiate to get me.

Alex was smarter than that.

My life wasn’t important.

Phoenix’s was.

The ARC wanted the child. They wanted him for many reasons – none of which was good. They would pursue him relentlessly.
