"How did he die?" Thomas whisper asked. He wanted to know the details of what happened in the past.
"He saved me by hiding me in the bushes while he went to create a distraction. I waited for him until I passed out from loss of blood. When I woke up again, I found myself in the home of an old couple.
"I went back to look for him but what awaited me was his battered corpse," at this point Brenda sobbed. She covered her face with her palm as the image of King's corpse surfaced in her mind.
It was something she always forced her mind not to remember as she couldn't stomach the memory. She had passed out from the shock when she saw his corpse.
"Apparently they captured and tortured him and after dumping his body in the forest, some animal made a feast out of him. His corpse wasn't...it w... wasn't...even," Brenda wailed, clutching her chest where she felt it aching, she dropped to her knees.
