Chapter 22: Clean Slate

Under Marcus's guidance we went back to the clearing. The prisoners did not limit their imaginations when it came to torturing the gaurds. They had gone through insane lengths to cause as much pain as they could without killing them.

They were still tied together, most of them unconscious. We worked fast, careful not to add any pain to the men. The absence of women was glaring, somehow I just knew that they had gone through worse in the hands of the, now thankful dead, animals. The sun came up and set about it's day while Charles and Marcus ferried the injured gaurds. They were a total of ten guards who were rescued, the rest of their comrades did not survive.

The architect of the shelter had taken everything into consideration. He had included a hospital, a school and a church at the center of the shelter. The hospital was fully equipped. I radioed in to the showroom and Phillip received my transmission.
