Life After: Episode 4 (A Serial Novel) - Plot & Excerpts
With Wesley’s pistol now pressed against the back of his head, there was nothing he could do. Clark knew the old man’s life dangled by a thread gripped tightly by the hand of an Imperialist. He knew that Wesley didn’t care about the old man, nor about the others. Wesley only wanted Clark alive to use him as a means to find the rebel base in order to expose it to the government. “Okay,” Clark said. “I’ll lead you to there as long as you spare them.” Clark waited as Wesley considered the offer. “Lay your weapon on the ground, Clark,” Wesley said. “Slowly.” Clark placed his rifle on the ground. Wesley gripped his gun tighter. “Now join the others.” Clark grabbed the hand of the woman he rescued from the concentration camp and walked towards the boys. “Just know that I won’t feed them,” Wesley said. “I won’t give any of them a single bite of my food.” Clark didn’t want to push their luck by attempting to compromise with Wesley. He knew it wouldn’t do them any good.
