French Foreign Legionnaires approach an isolated fort in the desert. The French flag is flying, but a closer inspection reveals only dead men propped up behind the parapets. However a single shot is fired from inside, so the bugler volunteers to scale the wall to investigate. He finds two bodies that are not staged like the rest and a note on one confessing to the theft of a valuable sapphire called the "Blue Water" After the officer rejoins his men outside, the fort goes up in flames.
