Okay, time to come clean lol. I've now radically altered the plot of this one, so you cannot expect anything lol, all I promise is that it will be a spectacular ending to DG lol.
************************************
Spartacus stared at the image, his mind racing.
How could Alexander be alive?! Especially now, this photo shows him at the same age that he died!
He hunched over the table, and buried his head in his hands.
An imposter, it has to be, he decided.
He looked for scars and other marks on Alexander.
They were all there.
Either this person knew Alexander very well, or it was Alexander.
And that thought terrified Spartacus. For one, how did he manage to stay young? And secondly, if that is him, what chance do I have of stopping him this time?
*******************************
Alexander grinned at Will.
"I suppose you want to know how I'm still alive?"
"Yeah, of course." Will nodded, slouched in the chair opposite. He respected Alexander, but had no use of him other than a way to get to Nicholas, and so didn't bother to show it.
"Well Spartacus made the mistake of letting those on the plane with me live. He always was a weak person - only ever killing those who had to die - never killing people without reason. Sometimes you have to kill without reason to neutralise enemies before they can become a threat.
"But he has a conscience, and it makes him weak. One person on the plane with me was particularly important. I'd like you to meet my son, Alexander Jnr."
A man the same age as Alexander now looked entered the room.
He looked like Alexander, but his hair was lighter, and his eyes were green. But the similarity was startling.
"He was born just before I was removed from power for the first time. When I went into hiding, I took him with me, for his mother was not of sane mind." Alexander explained.
More like you beat her up so much she killed herself,, Will thought grimly. He had no illusions about how evil Alexander was, but he respected the man's fighting skills and courage. And his thirst for revenge, which was as strong as Will's.
"It was my son and one loyal commander who used my DNA to create a clone of me, then forced a doctor to use a revolutionary new technique to transplant my brain from my old body, which was kept in deep-freeze by the Hoplites.
"Oh, and I'd like you to meet that one loyal commander, although you have already met before." Alexander nodded at the door.
"Will, meet Colonel Josh Daniels."
