”Hold up, what’s that?”
Isaki Osore looks at the man as the wagon rolls along. Customs was a thing everywhere, and so far he had no trouble with it here, but there was some natural curiosity about the coffin among all of the food and construction materials in this wagon. It was the first of many he’d convinced Tenken to send to this place to help them rebuild, and the coffin was a keystone to his plans in the future.
”Coffin. Body. Cousin.” As usual a man of few words when the need was not there for more. The customs agent was apparently figuring this out quickly as he just nodded and told Osore not to do anything weird with the body, then gave directions to the hospital. Apparently the man figured he was donating it to science or something, a misconception that the giant armored figure did nothing to correct.
The months since his episode were not easy on Osore. His mind was being chipped away by the alien presence in his soul, but he was proving more capable than any knew at holding it at bay. So far the changes were minimal, and they would remain that way. His body seemed to be on a rollercoaster, regressing back to its former state before suddenly leaping back to good health. Tenken refused to send his medication, and while Osore was no over his near-fatal withdrawal and addiction to it, the sheer agony he went through when the wounds returned proved to be the most powerful attack the other one could use. There was no thought then except sheer agony.
The wagon rolls down the road, heading for the compound that Osore was staying at while he was here. The previous owners were more than happy to sell it after the attack, and Osore offered what would have been considered above average money even before terrorism became a problem. His eyes remain fixed on it as the wagon moves. When they arrive, the food would be distributed to the relief groups for giving out to the needy, the materials would be given to the government to use as they saw fit. And a coffin would find its way deep into the compound.
