Once inside, the hot air makes him lick his parched lips. An overwhelming thirst comes over him, like a sudden dust storm off the desert. \u003cem\u003eWhat is happening\u003c\/em\u003e?\"That's far enough, scumbag\u003cstrong\u003e.\"\u003c\/strong\u003eSomething pulls hard on his shackled leggings. The marble floor comes up at him fast, his forearms taking the full force of his body weight. Pain; it's familiar, but he can't bring the memory in.Exhausted; he doesn't know why, but the fatigue is as clear as the throbbing pain in his arms.\"Get up!\" the first voice demands.Bradock is yanked to his feet by his hair. A blunt shaft finds its way into his right kidney. The accompanying pain is becoming quite familiar now, but he's too tired to resist. He struggles forward, trying to maintain his balance.In front of him, he sees a mirrored glass hallway displaying the latest in men's cologne, women's fashions, and men's apparel. The other sections are divided into convenience shops and eateries.\u003cem\u003eOh, the smell of fresh coffee and cinnamon buns\u003c\/em\u003e. It causes Bradock's stomach to cramp with a deep emptiness.Trudging along beside the glass display windows, Bradock catches sight of his reflection. He looks haggard, drawn, fatigued, and ... \u003cem\u003eWhat's that \u003c\/em\u003e...? \u003cem\u003eOn my left cheek?\u003c\/em\u003e The letter \u003cem\u003eC\u003c\/em\u003e, and inside the \u003cem\u003eC\u003c\/em\u003e is an upside-down cross, burnt into his cheek! \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eI ... don't ... remember\u003c\/em\u003e \u003cem\u003e...\u003c\/em\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003eHe raises his shackled hands to touch the scarred, mottled skin.Like the sound of a whip resonating through the air, something slashes down hard against his arm, sending a throbbing, shooting pain through his left side. It leaves his arm dangling, lifeless, without feeling, useless.\"Keep your hands where I can see them,\" the voice snarls.\u003cp\u003eBradock turns back towards the glass. He sees a face behind him. Just for a moment, his tormentor's image flashes in the reflection of the glass. \u003cem\u003eI know him\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003cem\u003e His name ...
