Bab 49: Will This Be The End Before It Begins?

There is a coldness that is starting to settle over my heart in anticipation of what is about to unfold in this courthouse which I am terrified to set my feet in. From what I can gather as I am standing here on the stairs is that our dear Brendan has opted not to make an appearance. I guess the man is very confident that this will play out the way that he wishes it.

Thought the question is?

Does he think that I will back off and play into his hands?

Or does he think that he has gained the upper hand in bringing me down?

Well, I myself do not know which is the most terrifying prospect to face. All I know is that I am not going to change the man who I am to become something that I am not.

I am a Marine.

And I will stick to the oath that I have taken regardless if my career will be ending here today.
