Betrayal: Where are our Children (A Serial Novel) Episode 6 of 9
Page 19
They expect us to torch our neighborhoods. And though there is an element of ignorant motherfuckers who embrace such stupidity, our people have a much broader agenda on the table. We have shipped buses and buses of our people to strategic places all over the city. They are armed, angry and focused just like our cell that you’ve ridden with tonight.”
“Oh my, God, please no.”
Quincy said, “It should already be underway.”
“And you had Xavier Prince killed for this?” Seth asked with some gruff in his voice. “You murdering son of a bitch—“
“Shut up, Doctor.” Quincy gave his voice some base. “I meant what I said when I spoke to him last. I loved Xavier Prince like a brother. Do you think it was easy for me to snub his life out the way I did after all he and his family has done for people of color? Who is the insane one now?”
“You’re a smart man, Quincy. You’re also very bold. A House in Chains has vast resources but I refuse to believe that you pulled this off alone. You must have had help.” And Seth paused to weigh the gravity of what putting his theory to voice. “And by my God in Heaven…I believe that I know where.”
And then, from almost nowhere, Dr. Seth Dupree, Quincy Morgan, Percy, the Peacekeepers—all of them found themselves surrounded by what easily had to be an armed brigade of 50 or so white men.
The Peacekeepers pointed their weapons in a vain attempt to intimidate such a large force. Percy pleaded with his own troops to hold their fire.
After a tense moment of silence, one man who looked the part of a raptor in a forest full of T-Rexes stepped to the forefront.
“I’ve waited a hell of a long time for this moment, Quincy Morgan.” The man who announced himself as James Carter said. “And I know that I won’t leave here disappointed.”
D r. Seth Dupree didn’t know whether to mourn his previous captor’s imitate demise or embrace it.
The Gray Man only knew that the question was soon to be raised and answered if any of them were worthy of survival.

Sneak peek at Scar:
The apocalypse starts here—starts now.
With all sides unable and unwilling to back away from the brink, open hostility has begun in earnest on the streets of Atlanta and in communities across the country. Order has broken down. People have grown desperate. And lawlessness reigns supreme.
And yet, the worse is still to come.
Xavier Prince is dead and his father’s vison for tolerance and harmony between the two prominent races in this country is in flames. Both Pandora and her rivals are taking heavy losses in resources and man power. Yet, the Circle—the surviving governing body of a House in Chains has plotted all along not to go down quietly.
The authorized use of Scar has been authenticated.
And the world will watch in horror and disbelief as an unparalleled chapter of carnage never witnessed on America soil is unleashed.
