    The smell of gunfire lingered in the air. 
    The storm had passed. 
    Black clouds, heavy with wind and water pushed east trailing rain like a dirty bridal veil dragging in the muddy grass. 
    Mags stood on a shipping container and surveyed the area where the battle had taken place. It was at the rear of the Distribution Center complex where the rows of metal buildings terminated at a weathered, eight-foot, chain-link fence.  
    When the storm passed, the smoke and haze settled into the low areas around the buildings and barricades.
    Something inside one of the adjacent buildings had caught and smoke was rising out of the vent pipes. Could be bad if not addressed. Mags made a mental note to get a fire control team on that immediately before it spread. 
    They had lost enough on this day.

    The brake lights on the lead vehicle flashed bright red. Brent was pulled from his doze by the grab of the seatbelt. 
    He slid his hands down his thighs smoothing the creases of his khaki pants the best he could and craned his neck to look around the black Suburban for what the delay might be now.  The tinted windows made it hard to see much.

    It was a warm day, but it was cool in the shade. 
    He sat in a grotto behind the campus infirmary.
    A light breeze swayed the hanging branches of a large Weeping Willow tree. The dancing greenery filtered the sunlight into splashes of illumination on the patio and long grass.  
    It smelled like summer. 
    Bill the dog lay on his back in the grass, in a patch of sun, with his legs splayed, head to one side, tongue lolling, snoring softly - no cares in the world. 
    The old man watched the movement of the willow from his chair in the dappled shade. The flecks of sunlight caused him to squint when the kaleidoscope sun broke through the shifting of the draped branches.

    It was a grey day without rain.
    A slight wind ruffled the trees.
    Heavy gray clouds pressed down on the river valley. 
    Even without the rain, the atmospheric pressure drained color from the surrounding forest and made it feel like they were driving through an evil forest tunnel, like something from a Grimms Fairy Tale or a Tolkien saga.

    Brad was exhausted. (pause)
    He had spent the morning supervising the construction of the trench around the perimeter. They were making good progress, but never enough and never fast enough. 
    He knew Rome wasn’t built in a day but that would be cold comfort when the next storm came.
    He could not remember the last time he had gotten a good night’s sleep. 
    Since the battle, he had been busy inventorying what had been used, what was damaged, and what was left. In the heat of the action against the King there hadn’t been much focus on controlling the check-out of items and materials.  
    Now he would be the one to clean up the inventory records.

    The old man was eager to talk to his son, Paul.
    Dr. Pannageorgio had confined the old man to his recovery room at the campus, but the old man was feeling better and chafing at the restrictions. 
    Since his conversation with Jen, he felt motivated. He felt some of the old fire in his belly. He felt an urgency to get back to the business of living.

Beige Hornet ,

Love it!

A great story presented very well. Very engaging.
Missing episode 16 from season 1 though. Which is a shame because I believe it would tell us how/why the old man, Bill and KJ have teamed up.

Midgut smith ,

Complete

All is good just a little less on the why they made that decision in back story but all in all I am hooked
