A New Life
#27
Red light formed before his eyes, and Elias knew instantly he could recreate its form. If he could shield himself from being swept away by the rage. Instinct summoned the rage like tuning one's ears to hear water dripping in the distance, but he was unsure if he wield the torrent at will.

But if he dared the attempt, he'd be damned sure he could create the red light.

His gaze followed Tony's gesture to the frozen blood. "Lets go."


They hurried back to Dan and Yuri. The snow crunched underfoot along the riverbank, and despite the unsure footing, they made quick speed. They rounded on the two that signaled for aid at the same time as Veso and Hans.

Dan and Yuri stood back to give the others room to see. What was discovered were the remains of a body. Male probably, by the size, but Elias had no intention to rummage through the remains to seek confirmation. It was like discovering a vulture-ridden carcass in the desert. The face was all but picked off by animals. The gloves of his hands were eaten through by rodents, probably rats. Elias hated rats. They'd been working at the boots as well, but had yet to make it through the tough leather. "There's another one about ten meters that way," Yuri said.


"It could be worse,"
Dan added.

The others looked at him in disbelief. "How so, Dan?"
Hans asked.

Dan shrugged, "Ever smell a body laid out the sun to rot?"


Elias was glad nobody answered.

They were all searching the area for clues as to what could take down a stout man like this. He didn't appear to have been shot.

Such was when Eli knelt and plucked something out of the snow. "Looks like he tried to defend himself."
He held a brass casing in the palm of his hand for the others to see.

Hans frowned. "From who?"


Everyone's eyes scanned the silent river. The only witness. Veso added one additional question they were all thinking:
"Or what?"
