Chapter 521

Kennedy was staring up at me. | saw the determination in her features, as well as the uncertainty. She wasn’t afraid and shewanted to proceed, but she knew | was fearful.

Either choice | made may fail my children. If | did not help, | was weak and ineffective. Should Nu-reeh catch me, she might killme, but | decided for the first time to fight back. My children should see the same strength in me that they embodied.

“| don’t know where they are,”| whispered to Hannah.

I started to pass men as | walked, but they ignored me. They talked about the strange men they were guarding and what theymust have done. The women weren't even feeding these prisoners. The women taunted them with a bucket of water they couldnot reach. The strange mouth-guards they wore prevented the prisoners from even speaking.
