When Quintin and Katja made it back to the land rover the adrenaline finally left him, he sank to his knees and shifted back.
Katja was still in tears, holding the newborn Kara in her arms she didn't care of Quintin's nudity, she took some of his clothes out of a bag in the vehicle and threw it next to him.
Quintin glanced at it slowly, then with effort he got dressed.
"Somehow I feel, we upset a great balance" Katja said looking at the sleeping baby.
"I know, I didn't really sign up for this" He said looking for a bottle of water.
"What now? How will we raise this child whilst knowing in the back of our minds we slaughtered her mother?"
"We can't raise her Katja, we don't have time to care for children now, not with Cleopatra looming in the future"
Katja looked at him saying those words, wiping the tears out of her eyes.
