Blague looked up at the sun that was beginning to set. He stood with one foot on the base of his shovel. Briggs' body was covered with a large white cloth, rippling in the wind.

I didn't anticipate Mulderan paying us a visit so soon. His spying on my debate with Jeck must have escalated the threat in his mind. He witnessed with his own eyes the momentum this group has gained.

Blague looked down at his shovel as his hair fluttered in the wind. A flash of light in his head gave him the goosebumps. Moments later, he was enveloped in thought.

His wife was being escorted by a shadowed figure. Her head was down, stunned that the man in front of her was dead set on going through with the process.

"Mulderan Grenich," she said slowly, "may you live forever with these horrors that you've caused."

Mulderan turned around, the shadow of him faded; his face was now clear in Blague's mind. He lifted Elaina's chin with his gloved fingers. Mulderan stared into her eyes, with his defined and emotionless face. "Your DNA is of the rarest on this planet. You're going to directly contribute to the survival of our race, whether you can comprehend your value or not."

She looked back at him. Her features were beautiful, but her eyes reflected despair. "It's funny what power can do to a person. You were always on the brink of madness, but now you've hopped over the edge," Elaina said. "Why don't you sacrifice yourself for your grand cause?"

Mulderan let out a laugh, "I gladly will when the time is right. But for now, I have to ensure that our survival is guaranteed."

"You've never sounded so lost," Elaina said.

Mulderan turned back around and signaled for her escorts to continue. "I won't forget you, Elaina, and neither will your partner."

Blague's eyes opened wide, feeling like he was slapped in the face. "These visions are odd," Blague said to himself. "It's as if I'm piecing together the events leading up to her extraction. Events that I wasn’t even there to witness."

Blague shook his head then looked up to see Eugene, Kentin, Sabin, and Mars making their way over the rocks. Kentin's head was up high as he conversed with the others. Blague put his hand up to say hello.

Everyone reacts differently to traumatic situations; this kid is a clear reflection of that.

As Kentin arrived, Blague knelt down and put his heavy hand on Kentin’s shoulder. "I'm sorry, Kentin. I would have taken those bullets for your father if I could have."

Kentin teared up, looking at the cloth spread over the huge man. "I want to be strong and I want him to be proud of me, no matter where he is right now," Kentin said.

Blague nodded and stood up. He handed Kentin a small shovel, "We will help you achieve that goal."

Sabin pet Mars and then tapped the wolf to go stand by Kentin’s side. Kentin grabbed the shovel, then turned to pet the wolf who cried, feeling the boy's sorrow.
