The village lies in ruins. Smoke billows from collapsed houses. Silence, except for a few distant shots.
The SOLDIER (late 20s, hardened, weary) staggers down the street, rifle in hand. His gaze is vacant, but watchful.
A soft cry catches his attention. He pushes open a broken door.
INSIDE – AMONG THE RUBBLE
Three children, battered, blood and dust on their faces. Their eyes wide with pain and fear.
The Soldier kneels. His breath quickens momentarily—hesitation.
Then he unfastens his canteen and lets each child take a sip.
He tears a piece of bread into three pieces and places it in their trembling hands.
With rough hands, he quickly washes their wounds, tears off a piece of his uniform to make a bandage.
SOLDIER
(softly, in a rough voice)
Stay down… eat and drink.
I'll be right back.
I'm going to see what's going on.
The children look at him, a mix of hope and distrust. He stands up, takes one last look, and disappears back outside.
