Editing Alexandra Etapaq (section)

===The March===

The next morning Alexandra stands before the troops, the CCC troops are send back towards the Jeweled Road and from there Amber. With a small core group they move further together. 

Alexandra had not seen Shaz Far anymore after their bestial moment. But she knows he is going to have fun in the villages ahead. 

Sending a messenger along the troops the word is spread to break up camp and start moving. Alexandra starts to move herself with a few people that camped near her. 
She knows the troops will follow. Riding Scully and her dragons resting on her shoulders she follows the path. 

For a while they travel in silence. A tension is growing and noone really dares to speak up, or question a thing about the new orders. 

At a point they reach a village, it is clear Shaz has been there with his forces. Eyes turn to Alexandra but she just calmly rides through it. She takes out her red sword and while riding she stays behind a bit. 
She calls upon the fire and burns the village down. If there were survivors, now there are none. 
Hours they travel. Until nightfall. Hirem suggests, breaking the silence "Perhaps time to set up camp and wait for the rest of the troops"

Alexandra, who has been riding in silence the whole day nods 
"See to it, i see how far Shaz Far got."

She turns Scully and goes along the path. Followed by worried eyes of those making camp. 

That night another village burns down, the fields around it as well. 

This continues on for several days. The opposition is not great, not that Alexandra had expected that. There wasn't alot of problems before. Except for the trainwreck. 

It is not after 2 weeks that Alexandra meets up with the group of Shaz Far. Appearantly they have encountered now more resistance, a well armed group. Alexandra leaves Scully at a safe distance, she then stands near Shaz Far. 

"Really, something you couldn't handle? " Her voice has a touch of amusement in it. 

"What seems to be the trouble?" 

Shaz Far shrugs "They are well armed and held up in that building, we are just planning on an attack. Send out a few scouts to see what they have in there. " 

Alexandra nods calmy "Then let's wait for a report. " 
It is not long after that the scouts return. 

"A warehouse, they are living there with alot of people. And also keep a weapon storage, vehicle storage all that. Seems a small community. " 

Shaz Far looks at Alexandra "Orders General?" 

Alexandra thinks for a moment and gestures with her head 
"Let's go in and discuss their terms of surrender. Have you troops on standby."

Shaz Far gives his orders and Alexandra and he walk towards the warehouse building. 

"We come to discuss terms. No violance. " 

Two men and a woman step eventually outside, they are clearly more of the militant types the way they are dressed and hold themselves. 

They gestures for Shaz Far and Alexandra to move closer. When they are a few meters from the group of three and closer to the warehouse one of the men start to talk.

Alexandra is not paying attention, she sees on the side of the building a partially opened door. Vehicles and the pungent smell of fuels and other chemical fluids. 

Calmly she looks at the group. The building. A sense of untamed hatred fills her. For a split second she is wondering where this intense feeling of hate comes from. But it only lasts a fleeting moment. A slight smile appears. She feels at least something. 

With a motion of a gun from her hand she points at the barrels that seem to hold flamable substances. 

"Bang." With that she shoots a ball of fire dripping what seems like, with molten material. She waits till it makes contact with the barrels. 
They explode, fires start to spread so fast. Alexandra tilts her head and then looks at Shaz Far

"Solved. " With that she turns around and starts to walk back to the troops waiting. Shaz Far following her. Not looking back to the fire and the explosions.
