rushed seven children away in the back of a fruit truck heading in the
            opposite direction.
              Paraded in chains the next day before hundreds of Rwandans, witnesses
            said she looked skyward and sang, ‘Whom shall I fear,’ before she was
            drawn, quartered and her remains thrown to wild dogs.
              None would have blamed Layla Marayika for saving herself and her
            two-year-old son Moses from the treachery of Rwanda, after the loss of
            Keezie. Instead, she increased her deployments including more dangerous
            water runs as land escape routes were compromised one by one. Through
            church and media relationships built by Operations Moses, Marayika
            insisted on weathering maximum risk for those in need by corroborating
            to international media contacts that not all Hutu death squad massacres
            were random or unplanned. Amidst a group of 12 refugees rescued from
            Rwanda, one survivor shared with Tinyuka that they saw and heard leaders
            from EuroMining International direct militia death squad leaders to
            specific villages and villagers whose valuable lands held natural elements,
            minerals and resources ‘under the ground.’ The militiamen were paid
            bounties for severing and presenting the heads of those who owned but
            refused to forfeit ‘the special places.’
              It wasn’t long until allegations circulated that Geneva, Switzerland based
            EuroMining International financed Hutu death squads that were seizing
            massacred Tutsi lands containing natural elements and resources for sale
            to Peoples Republic of China brokers for profit, products and weapons
            programs. With that realization, the militia manhunt for Layla Marayika,
            her son Moses and her Operations Moses teammates was expanded, better
            planned and armed.
              Knowing her days were numbered, and only the Lake Kivu water-borne
            route remaining, Layla’s last rescue was also her most valuable – Moses.

              Unbeknownst to Ndara, Sean, and Sergeant Ngetti, Skye had
            heard it all.  He snuck out of the clinic and headed to the compound’s
            communications center. Hiding behind a sliding door until the
            Operation Moses radioman left for a break, Skye slipped the
            charged satellite phone out of its cradle on the desk. He slinked
            unnoticed down the sand path to a palm hammock on the banks
            of Lake Kivu.
