Michael found his voice;

“Special agent Michael here”

“What is going on down there agent? We heard reports that you have lost your target”

“We were ambushed and some of the members of our team turned out to work for someone else and they lead us into a trap”

Now for the first time in a long while, Kuyi was surprised. He paused a little, looked Ifeoma in the eye and said;

“What did you say again?”

Michael said;

“Some members of the team had other interests which included the president’s death”

Ifeoma who had been quiet since gasped and said;

“I can’t believe this is happening”

Michael was a little puzzled;

“Who is that sir?”

Kuyi said;

“I am here with the Minister of Defense Ifeoma Nwachukwu”

The line went quiet as Michael had expected to speak with just the director and he did not think the minster would be present.

Kuyi said;

“Hello, are you still on the line?” and still he got no reply.

Ifeoma spoke into the receiver;

“What is going on down there? Somebody please talk to me”

Michael looked around as his team mates gathered around him waiting for what he will do next but he just turned ended the call, turned the phone off and threw it into his pocket and everyone else looked at him shocked and confused.

“Okay what do we do now?” IBK said

“That might have been a huge mistake, I might have compromised our safety and risked everything we have stayed alive for” Michael said.

“What do you mean?” Shade said walking close to him

“For all we know, the minister of Defense might be a part of all this. She has the whole military under her and can pull the strings from anywhere. Besides why are they together right now? they are all supposed to be in the crises room”

The president spoke up;

“I thought you mentioned that your team was picked and sent here as a joint operationbetween the military and intelligence?”

“Yes ma’am”

“So why would they want me dead? Remember that those on your team really hadto follow through with the initial plan so they can get me in their arms. I still believe that if we had gotten through to the Nigerian camp,this would not have happened”

“So what exactly is your point ma’am?”

This time the presidential aide replied;

“If the Director of the DMI and Defense Minister wanted her dead, she would already be dead. A bomb on her plane, a mistake with her guards, she spent some time with the Nigerian contingent before coming here and she was safe you know”

“And then there is the thing that Ifeoma is one of the few people I can trust with my life in my cabinet along with the Commandant of the Palace guards so I think we should call them back”

“What if you are wrong?” Izu said

“If I am wrong, let me be wrong. At least I would be the one making the wrong decision”

*************************** ***************************

When the phone went dead, Ifeoma panicked. A call from the team was the last thing she was expecting and but they had called and it gave her some relief but it also make her more tense. She looked at Kuyi who had gotten to his feet and then Charles who still stood by the door unmoved and she looked back at Kuyi;

“I think you should call back”

“I don’t think I should” he said as he sank back into his chair

“They just hung up, there has to be a reason for that, they have something to tell us, the president might be alive or they might need some kind of help”

“They have survived this long without our help and they can go long without it. we should learn to trust them”

“What do you mean trust them? This is the future of the nation we are talking about here”

“The future yes but they must have been facing a lot of issues to make that call to South Africa. That call would never be like that if they were not sure someone is out to get them and there is nothing we can do from here to make sure they get our trust”

Kuyi took the phone and called a number;

“I need you to trace a call for me. I probably came out of Tetuan and it is a high priority one. Make sure you do that without anyone noticing though”

“So now we wait for the trace to tell us where they are? Within that time, they might end up dead”
Re: <<<The Guardians: Rise of the Powers that Be>>> by Mynd44: 7:03pm On Jul 22, 2013
“They are already dead. Don’t you get it? As noble as our intentions might be, if we give them a reason to believe that we are acting against them, they might get scared and run in the other direction. If they are good enough to keep themselves alive right now, I am sure they are save enough to be trusted to continue to do so”

“Well by ten this morning, it won’t matter anymore: they will probably drop every bomb they have on the Owuro on Tetuan and if the team is still alive then, they won’t for any longer than then”

Kuiy looked at her as she got more agitated and desperate as she was trying to make himget the message from her angle when his phone rang again;

“What do you have for me?”

“He listened for close to three minutes and he hung up”

Ifeoma looked at him expecting some good news

“They traced the call. It came from a satellite phone from inside a rebel outpost in Tetuan. I think they might have been captured. I wantto arrange a small extraction team t fly there from Liberia right now: there is a landing strip in the area we can use and our men can drop in on them through parachutes”

Ifeoma’s eyes widened;

“Why don’t you just call back?”

“If they hung up because they don’t trust us, calling back does not help. We also have to look at the possibility that they were captured and the managed to get to a phone and they hung up because the phone was snatched from them and calling them back would be a nice was to tell their captors that they have called home”

Ifeoma stood amazed at how good he assessed the situation but within herself she wanted to get the phone and call him. now they had to arrange another team in secret and that was not agreeing with her head at all when Kuyi’s phone interrupted her thoughts. Kuyi signaled to her to move closer t him as he received and put it to speaker;

“Hello Michael, this is still the Director and I have the Minister of Defense here”

‘Michael’s voice came back;

“Are you two the only two people there?”

Ifeoma looked at Charles and said;

“Yes we are. There were reports of the death of everyone on the team hence the rescue was deemed failure”

“We are in a rebel camp somewhere in Tetuan, we need an extraction team immediately”

“I don’t know how immediate you want that extraction because the closest people I have that I can trust is in Liberia and that’s forty five minutes away”

“Send it, we are not going anywhere, just tell us the extraction point and we will try to be there”

Ifeoma said;

“I need to ask you a question agent if that is okay”

“You can ask ma’am”

“Where is the president?”

The line was silent for a few seconds as the President walked slowly to Michael and spokeinto the phone as boldly as she could manage

“I am fine Ifeoma, But I would prefer it if I can sleep in my own bed tonight and please call Quadri to tell him I am fine”

Kuyi replied:

“I am relieved that you are okay ma’am but right now, we are not sure who wants you dead and who wants you alive so we will try to keep this between us.” He continued; “Michael, are you held there against your wish?”

“No sir we are not, we are actually guest here”

“Good, I will need you to give the phone to whoever is in charge there: I will need a map and some other logistics”

Michael repied;

“You can’t actually tell me you don’t know where we are sir. I expected you to have traced the call”

“I already did and was already planning a hostile drop in but this time, the plans have changed and I will need to know exactly what they can do to help us”

Michael looked up at Shade and she knew what to do immediately and she walked out of the tent.
Kuyi gave the phone to Ifeoma and he walkedtowards Michael who cleared a path for him. he waved his hand and Ifeoma saw about gather around him while she continued on the phone

“We are about to send the team in so you all should get some rest.”

She continued for some minutes and Michael informed her that the commandant of the camp was there and she asked to speak with him;

“Good morning sir”

“Good morning, who am I speaking with?”

“This is Admiral Ifeoma Nwachukwu, Ministerof Defense of the federal republic of Nigeria. Iam told you were nice enough to allow us use your camp for the time being”

The commandant answered;

“It is no trouble at all. We are happy she chose to visit us and you people have done enough for us, I can only attempt to pay back with some kindness”

Ifeoma said;

“While I express our gratitude, I think I should tell you what we all know already. She can’t stay there with you as each minute she stays, she is in more danger from those who want her dead so we intend to come get her but we will need you to help us out”

“What do you need? We need you to provide transportation and escort her to the pickup point that’s all”

The commandant said;

“That is easy but will do that on one condition”

On hearing this, Michael griped his rifle tight, he looked at IBK and Izu and noticed that they did the same while Shade held the president and pulled her back a little

“And what are you demands sir?”

Ifeoma said her voice shaking a little as she prepared for the worst
