Today is the last day for a while that I will be writing my blog. I plan to return on Monday, October 1st, 2012, unless my modem or computer faces problems with the physical move. Please have patience with me and return to view the blog. There are only four more chapters to the Legend of Kor, and then when she is finished I shall finish the writing for the first book, Heaven & Hell. Please stay with me for the future adventures of our favorite energynauts; Tom, Ed, Glenna, and Ann.
Today Lucy finds herself in a dangerous situation with an unexpected outcome.
THE GOD GAMES: Legend of Kor...Chapter Twenty
Three more days passed, and Adam radioed Bond that they had entered Mano and that they had not been challenged, but that the Selves had waved white flags and surrendered. They were having trouble with rioting in the streets, but once General Coleman brought in his wagons of food, fish, kelp, and sugar beets, the people were soothed by the promise of food and the knowledge that now that the war is over, they will be able to take their money and buy food from Emon, Voun, and Wale again.
Lucy, Miriam, Alice, Glenna, Molly and I, all came over to the Voun-Emon camp to care for the patients. With us were a thousand men of the Special Forces unit. They immediately began by having Gog's soldiers scrub out the barracks and each bunk in each of the barracks. Then they bathed each ill prisoner, put private wear and clean pajamas on each of them, and then placed them in the clean bunks. Lucy then stepped up and ordered the sugar beets once an hour, and three times a day they were to have the fish and kelp soup.
Going from patient to patient, Lucy diagnosed their particular illness and gave them antibiotics as needed. She did not find dead bodies in any of the bunks, and each bunk held only one person, so there was a real difference between the prisoners that they intended to kill by whatever method and prisoners who were there for their working abilities. The Vouns and Emons, for the most part, were in better shape than the Wales, but that was a minimal difference, and there were hundreds of Vouns and Emons who were very near death.
Lucy had gotten through the first four barracks and she went outside near the fences to relax for a minute and get a breath of fresh air. It was getting dark and she realized that she had better get back to work if she wanted to help as many patients as possible. She was thus thinking, with her eyes closed, when she got a really bad feeling in her heart. She opened her eyes and met the cold cruel eyes of one of Gog's true-to-the-core soldiers. He reached out and grabbed her shoulders and shook her, he then pressed his body into hers and reached down and unzipped the breech in his pants. Lucy's hair had got caught in the fence, limiting her movements, but she kneed him in his groin and scratched his face, then suddenly, when she was about to lose the battle, there was a tremendous screech, and Bond physically picked up Gog's soldier and threw him on the ground. His pistol was instantly in his hand and he shot Gog's soldier straight in the heart.
Lucy was sobbing and shaking from her near disaster and she flew into Bond's protective arms. Bond soothed Lucy by rocking her in his arms and softly patting her back. Something broke loose in Bond's and Lucy's hearts. They had held their hearts tightly closed to love, but now, looking into each others eyes, their hearts melted.
"Thank you Bond," said Lucy, "I thought I was dead; or worse. Oh, it was horrible!" Bond held her even closer and made soothing noises. By then, a group of Bond's men had gathered and asked Bond what had happened. Bond gave them a quick sketch and they applauded him for saving Dr. Prism's life.
Bond followed Lucy into the fifth barrack and stayed with her all through that night of work. He admired Lucy so much for her strength to go through such an ordeal, and then put it all aside to treat injured Emons and Vouns. He felt his heart expanding.
Lucy continued to treat the patients until 10:30 a.m., and then she came looking for me. She needed to talk about Gog's soldier and what he had done to her, then she flushed and told me how Bond had saved her life by killing Gog's soldier, and how he had taken her in his arms and comforted her; how kind and gentle he was.
I felt in my heart that a fresh miracle had occurred, and thanked ONE for protecting Lucy and bringing love to Lucy and Bond; I decided that this information should be kept silent at this time.
The days passed, and little by little all of the patients improved. There were no more deaths, except from natural causes, and group by group the Wales, Vouns, and Emons returned to their own homes. After three months, Bond ordered that the camps be demolished and all of the building materials burned. When all of the buildings and fences had been burned, Bond ordered all of the land bulldozed, and then when nothing remained, he placed a 4 foot square sign on the land where the Wales had been slaughtered. It said, "In remembrance of the lives of Wale, Emon, and Voun prisoners who suffered and died under the hand of Gog."
When I return we will see how General Coleman and Wills are fairing in Mano, Selve. How the riots were quelled and supervized elections were set up.
