Regus gave his order and they followed the Sentient to the Ascendancy despite the Ijiraq's course. It was of little consequence. Killing innocents was never easy, but sometimes it had to happen. Though Martin was glad for the reprive - he wanted to save his fighting for the Ascendancy. Martin fondled the crowd control device in his left hand. He was twitching to use it. And his right hand was on his gun.
This was the epic battle he'd been waiting for - the reason he'd joined the Archangels to begin with. He was going to take down a god... not alone - and he was a little afraid of the outcome, but he was mostly excited. His body hummed with the glory about to be had. But there were too many variables he didn't like. The girl being the first. The Ijiraq being a big second. The Ascendancy was powerful - what if he had other gods with him? How many does he have?
Martin was starting to get nervous and he had a bad feeling about it. But he pushed it away and focused on the job. There is nothing he can do about those problems - he had only to focus on the now. Do his job - kill Ascendancy. And then kill the whelp of a girl. Maybe he could even kill the Ijiraq while he was at it.
