A dim light flickers to expose a man, strapped to a chair in a dark room. Rorry, beaten and bloodied almost to the point beyond recognition is seen.... A constant stream of blood emits from his mouth, dripping into his lap.

State your name... The voice has a threatening tone to it.

coughs I am Rorry... Leader of the Reneg-ahhhhrggg! Rorry convulses as an electric current flows through the chair and his body.

State your REAL name...

gasps as the current subsides I am John Roary Santiago, offspring of a treasonous father, and son to a forgetful mother...

Read these words...

Rorry looks up, beyond the recorder... But remains silent.

Can't you read idiot!?

Rorry begins to scream in agony as the electric current is cranked up again. All right! I'll... I'll do it. looks down in defeat

Good.... Now, read!

looks up... begins to read "Criminals of Sirius. Let this be an-" $*&% it, I'm not going down like this!
leans forward It's Rheinland! My final task to you is to hunt them ALL! Kill them and let all of Sirus know-

Shut him up!

Arhhhh! Rorry shakes from the electric current, the pain unthinkable. Suddenly he looks up, ignoring the pain. Renegades, kill these dogs. Make it public. Let everyone know I am not the end! Avenge me!

5 Days Later.....

Rorry is before a crowd... They remind him of his Corsair origins... "Have I done enough? Will the Renegades avenge me?" He looks down and see's a face, it has a familiar look to it... He finally realizes before the blade falls, it's his daughter...

The lights come to full glow.

That'll do it! All stand-ins please exit to you rear. You will be escorted to the debrief room where you will finalize some paper work and confirm your credit transfers... Dr. Griff? Shut off the Holo set, I can almost smell the stench of Crete!

Two young men quickly untie Rorry's hands and begin to remove the scar makeup, fearful of his unchecked outbursts of rage. But his focus if averted...

Perplexed Who... Where are those people going? That girl, let me speak to her!

The Holo set of the dwellings on Crete fades. The two young men attending to Rorry hurry out. The room is round, a dome/half sphere replaces what would be the ceiling and the walls. The LSF's "Propaganda Operations Room." Rorry now stands alone with his "captor." He looks healthy.

They are of no concern to you John. You're almost a free man. Now we need to see if your... "Renegades" come through and divert the Rheinland enough for us to make further advances upon them.

I could have sworn.... Her face. Shakes head How long? When can I go back. I've held up my end!

Well... We could kill you.

Rorry's fists clinch as he looks the man in the eyes, his gaze wild. A lifetime of self-glorified murder was etched in every inch of his face.

We had a deal!

The man seemed pleased at Rorry's immediate switch to anger, his mode of survival.

It is as they say... You are a man without fear.
It WILL be the death of you. But not today.
You will be released once your team shows their worth.

Good. I'll be waiting.
