*just one in a series of random post about his time in Africa and what not* The enemy had been pushing them back for weeks, wave after wave of mortar barrages and heavy artillery had wiped out the vast majority of their forces. And although they had been well trained; the enemies tactical movements and their superior firepower were highly effective. It was clear the end of the Republic's Freedom Army was near. The scouting reports from the front weren't good, many of the other Warlords that made up the Republic were either dead, or had fled the battlefield. The U.N. was advancing on their position.
"THOSE COWARDS!" he yelled, slamming his fist onto the desk in front of him. Enraged he cursed in Hausa, clearing the desk with a swipe of his hand."Viper, gather the other "Chosen" and meet me in the main courtyard." Koffi graded a small empty bowl and a knife from the floor. "It is time for the ritual."
Koffi knew there was victory to be had, but was also a man who didn't believe in retreat or surrender. They had been taught this, trained for this. Koffi would lead them to a glorious victory, or a warrior's death.
Viper quickly executed his orders running around the makeshift fortress pulling the "Chosen" from their post. They were a special group of soldiers in the army with power who had survived the training. They were a small platoon of eighteen, ages ranging from eleven to fifteen. Except for one all were male. By now Viper was one of the oldest and most experienced members of the "Chosen" having been in service to Koffi over six years.
The ritual was the same as every battle, Koffi would cut his wrist and bleed into the bowl, then they would all drink. Koffi's mental powers were increased by absorbing his bodily fluids. While this gave the boys no real strategic advantage, their devotion to carry out Koffi's will stop at nothing short of death. "Go now my children, let them see the true power of the Republic! We will show them the face of death!"
