Finally I have something presentable! Yeah all right it might be crappy but please at least read it anyway.

7 Explaining

Beka walked next to Rhade in silence as they left the restaurant and started along the cliffs. Seeing a hollow spot that would be out of the way to anyone passing by she pulled him into it taking the box from him and setting it on the sand.

"Who was that?" Beka asked after a few seconds silence.

"He was a friend at one time," Rhade said his voice sounding tight and thin as he stared past her. "He's the reason their dead."

"Who's dead?" Beka asked quietly.

"That bastard gave Lionel a bomb. He killed them. That bastard killed them all. My wife, my kids. He took them away form me," his voice was cracking now and his eyes flashed with a mixture of anger and sorrow. Suddenly he cracked and slammed his fist into the cliff.

Beka jumped a little but didn't move away from Rhade as he stood there smoldering.

When he spoke his voice was still strained but he was whispering. "I trusted him. He was my best friend growing up. We did everything together. Then one day I come home and he hands Lionel a bomb then runs away. They were all standing there when I went off. I tried to get to them but I couldn't. The bomb was in a metal box and when it exploded a piece caught me in the ribs. That's one of the scars it never really healed right."

Suddenly out of the blue Rhade jerked her toward him burying his face in the crook of her neck and wrapping his arms tightly around her. Beka slipped her arms around his waist.

"It's okay Tel. It's okay."

They stood in silence for a while until he shifted and spoke. "You don't know what it's like."

"What what's like?"

"He was my best friend. We did everything together. He said he had to do it. They would have killed him if he didn't. I could have killed him tonight. I almost did but I couldn't."

"That's okay Tel."

"He killed them. He took my children."

Suddenly there was a shout from the cliff above them. Rhade instinctively pulled Beka further into the hollow in the cliff. A few seconds later a body crashed to the ground not ten feet from them. Rhade was running over to it with Beka in tow. When they got closer she saw that it was the man from the bar.

Rhade was on his knees next to the man, "Zach."

The man, Zach, held out a hand and Rhade took it. "Please don't judge me too badly," he crocked in a weak voice. "Let me go I'll face my final judgment. I'm sorry Tim but its better this way."

"You didn't have to Zach. You could have asked me." Rhade's voice was a whisper now.

"I know that now. I didn't then. Please Tim let me go on and face it. I can stand for what I did."

"Zach."

"Take care of her Tim. She's a good one," with a final gasp the man's eyes rolled back in his head.

Rhade stayed with his head over Zach lifeless body still holding his hand. "You did what you thought was best," he whispered laying Zach's hand on his chest. The medics were there then and Rhade stumbled away toward Beka.
