The God Mars book Three: the Devil You Are
“The ritual goes as follows: For security (and maybe so they don’t have to watch), the rest on the civilians are locked down in their quarters, the majority of the H-K force stationed to ensure everyone complies.
Six H-K—including Palmer and Murphy—escort Kara and her family to the airlock I came in through. It’s a long, horrible walk through the echoing domes of the home that’s rejecting her to an almost certain death. I follow behind them, to no one’s protest (I think Palmer wants to watch me ...suffer more, and perhaps Murphy is hoping I’ll pull off some kind of miracle).
It doesn’t take me long to decide what I’m going to do.
I do get a minor surprise when we get to the airlock: Murphy’s wife Kim is there, holding a small pack that I recognize from their apartment, probably the girl’s worldly possessions. One of the H-K escort goes to a locker and pulls out a breather mask, water bottle, insulated sleeping bag and a heavy coat. I notice these all look well-used. Do they recover the items after those cast out are killed?MoreLess
