16 Continued.... Benedict travelled back to Benin. Ray and Benedicta met him at Bypass. Benny remembered her first encounter with Benedict. He had met her at a party, she was a freshman while he was in his third year at the time. How time flies. Ray had warned her before the honda in which Ben came with arrived. ' Don't even try anything funny. Remember our agreement. If you want him to still be out free and not behind bars for murder, or even happy, you will do exactly as I say' ' Understood? Benny hesitated. ' Are we clear? Ray came again. When she gave a nod. He said. ' Now smile and get out of the car. They are here' Ray thanked the driver and took Ben in his car while Benny left with the driver. He asked Benedict how his vacation had panned out. They were heading towards a thick jungle in the outskirts. 'Boring . Old folks talks' Ben replied. ' There are people I'd like you to meet.' Ben asked about the B4. Raymond told him that they would talk about it later. When they arrived the jungle. Ray gave him his gun and told him he trusted him with his life. As they strolled into what looked like a field with scanty trees, and vast mass of grass, a group of armed men came out of nowhere. They surrounded them and then paved way for the man that came forth . He had a long frown but then he smiled and embraced Ray. ' Welcome home brother. 'Its good to see you too . Fero' 'Come. this way" the man replied. *** Benedict followed confused and his gun and Ray's which he gave up earlier had been returned to him. He was surprised to see that the terrorists had built almost twenty thousand tents camouflaged with grass and had a huge supply of food and weaponry. He followed. But Ray told him to stay put as he walked into a tent. *** Ray had a meeting with five other men. They argued a little on something , then one of the men told Ray that his boys had betrayed the course. That he could not handle them. Ray admitted guiltily that Phil had led the revolt but he had taken care of it. ' Your breakout was rather too early. We should never have trusted you with such duty.' A man with white beards and red chieftancy cap said. The man who had welcomed Ray earlier, defended him. They however discussed the task at hand. The Apocalypse. ' It has begun' one man said as he switched on a tv set. There was an ongoing riot at the heart of Abuja. People protesting against the cruel governance and hardship, they had with them banners and flyers. Then suddenly an earthquake as a building exploded. Ray glanced at his friend. ' Yes these are ours. They have a task to paint the government black in the eyes of the masses and the second phase has to do with your chosen man.' Fero acknowledged. ' What's his task? ' He will cut off the head of the snake' Ray's eyes lit up. ' That's suicide. You don't expect me to allow him do it? So I risked my life protecting him for that. Someone else should do it.' ' We do things that normal people won't think of. Its his destiny' the man with white beards cemented. **** Outside, Ben already felt like evryone was up to something. Like they wanted to lynch him into an abyss or something. Those eyes. Hmmm. Why Stare at me like that man? This one keeps cocking his AR 15 and wants to eat me raw. Hmm. Easy man. When Ray came out, he asked him what had happened back there. Ray told him to keep quiet and follow his lead. They walked out, while the soldiers escorted them. Ben asked about the people he was to meet. Ray tells him that there was a change of plan. He had with him a camera. And Ben didn't bother to ask what Ray needed a paparazzi camera for. Ray took him to a new apartment. Told him to stay put that he would be back in the evening. Ben tried to adjust in the new environment. There were no neighbours. It felt like a graveyard. The crickets and bush animals were his only companion. At least there was a generator that supplied power. In the evening, Ray returned. He had someone or something with him. What's in the boot. ? Am I in danger? Why do you want me to stay here? Ray said there was something he would like to ask of him. But first he would give him a chance to seek revenge because after the night, his life would change forever. Ben stood clueless and Ray opened the trunk. Inside it, a badly beaten and tied up to the mouth, Phil, ( B4) stared back at them. Ben glanced at Ray. Raymond said ' He is all yours. Help me bring him inside' Tbc

14.... Phillip abhorred times when orders came from nowhere in the middle of the night. Especially when it was the big brother6 , whom he had not seen before but communicated with , through a private number. This night was one of those nights and this one would be the last, he had one goal: to kill and usurp power. Benedict boiled down with pain and anger as he raised his head to see the man approaching. He clenched his fist when he was up on his feet and wanted to pour out fury on the B4. ' Doc'. Phillip called out to Raymond when he came closer . ' I hate it when the BB #6 calls me and every time na ur face I go come see.' He stopped in his tracks. ' Wetin happen na? Why did he holla me and my boys over here to this location which is very--' Raymond cut in ' Calm down #4, Its a night for reckoning, ' he turned to Ben who was battered up and then returned his gaze to Phillip who was surprised to see ropes and a chair ' A big announcement will be made here this night and--' Ray continued The Brother #4 flickered his eyes and clenched his teeth in guilt. He knew what was about to happen, he will never allow it. ' What's the meaning of this? ' Phillip cut in ' I thought we already settled the issue of the apocalypse with the Big brothers. I mean the council of six. I thought we decided to-' ' Do it your way ' Ray shot back ' correct? And you tried to terminate him but you forgot that-' ' Wait!! Wait!!! ' 'Why? Are you guilty of the crime? Benedict and the rest of the brothers stood clueless and watched the two men argue. ' I want to hear it from the horse's mouth' Phillip said and put up a straight scarface. ' Where is he? At least for the sake of trust, let me see him. The big brother #6.' He paused and glanced at his home boys who stood close' unless , he is here somewhere.' He returned to Ray and said calmly ' Is he? Eh? Doc' Silence pierced the roof as both men stared each down with Ray only a second away from planting a bullet in his chest. He knew already, damn! . Ray thought and adjusted his collar then a brother drew his gun, Ray had calculated and engaged the flash banger A blinding white light and blasting sound followed. Benedict found himself ducking as bullets flew up and down like a band of crackers. He saw Raymond behind a crate and wondered what he would do with an empty shell. A man fell face wards when Ray fired furiously. ' Are you with me? Ray called out to Ben ad mist the gunshots. ' Yes!! ' Ben replied 'but I can't do that without ammo. Toss me a shell.' Ray pulled the briefcase and hesitated as he ran back for cover. An enemy bullet shattered the tv screen. ' Sir Raymond?' Ben called again. ' The bullets!!! Trust me!!' With three sounds of ' kpppbang kpppbang kppbang', Benedict located his closest target. A bullet chew into the man's head and created an entry for the second, with the third, he cut down another fool who showed prowess. These were the people he considered to be his brothers but the evil just keeps knocking until you let it out ... Its your only ally. You and it against the world. At point blank , he located another hostile when he ducked a stray bullet, adrenaline pumped into his blood. Holes developed on a pack of crates when Ray unleashed terror, a misguided idiot slumped and that was his end. He cocked and reloaded as he squat to take cover. He advanced and picked his marks, the gun's recoil had bullets wastes tossing off one by one in milliseconds, evrything else was in slow motion but Ray was light, made flesh. Benedict followed with a limp. He smiled as he believed in his own ability. A brother flanked Ray and had a clean shot , Benedict shot him impulsively, he almost missed as the man fired bullets upwards when he fell to his kneels. The BB6 turned and saw a dead body in a pool of blood on the concrete floor. ' You are welcome' Ben said. Ray shook his head and immediately spotted a brother fleeing. 'Kpbpaang' came the loud report. The man stopped in his tracks. ' He is not here' Benedict said to Ray. He wanted to end it at that opportunity when Ray looked away and went toward the entrance. He aimed at Raymond from behind then held down the gun without a good reason. He had a shot and chose not to take it, so he thought, but it was fear of the unknown. ' I die... You die' Ray's words flashed in his brain. Tbc asap |

Cc Evryone that has followed so far. Its a terrible situation for me here. Recap Benedict gets out of jail. His life is in danger. He escaped death and his home is blown to bits. With a revelation that his uncle is behind his misfortunes , he went for revenge but met dead bodies at his uncle's ,while escaping the set up, Yemi dies and he gets trapped in an open fire. Raymond came to his rescue. Benedict nabbed the sniper and discovers his identity, but we thought he would uncover his real identity. Shocking! He did not. Ray/ BB6 fills him in on the events that made his situation stagnant, and the antagonists behind his attacks. Why and what caused it. Now that was a big revelation. But the biggest event called the ' Apocalypse' is in the corner and We are uncertain if Ben will take up the lead, reject the idea or worse. And in the last update we saw him being stabbed with ethorphine (m99) and again who could have thought about Ray...? So far so good. The thrill continues... Thank you for being there... |
You watched in confusion when the gadget fell from his hands. It did not just happen. You told yourself in the wake of your deepest fear. You turned and looked at Jerry- your five year old cousin whose naughty act a second ago ,made you loose focus- He smiled as if he had no idea what he had done. You raised a hand up and left a brutal slap to his shoulders. You left him in a pool of tears- crying his eyes out -and dashed into the living room, then through the corridor, in and out from your room , trousers on, through the living room, through the veranda and out the door. Pacing down the staircase from the third floor , You had your arms on your head. The magnitude of havoc that Jerry had caused made you detest him. You blamed yourself for keeping a blind eye when he picked up the gadget. You jumped stairs, almost flew over a woman as she came up while carrying a basin of fried cassava extracts . ' Hey! Careful . Bros' ' Sorry Did you just say sorry? Well you could not recall . Yet. Yet , you raced down to the compound and met some children dusting off debris from your gadget. Children. You hate all of them immediately. You snatched the gadget off their hands. Your concern was simple and complicated , edited files and all your recent stories were inside the Tab's ROM. You hoped it was still good, Please lord! You muttered as you flipped it over to see a badly shattered screen . You looked up and saw Jerry in tears, probably he realised what he had done. ' Oh God' You yelled out when the Tab came on but the touchpad and screen did not respond to your thumb. It was shattered beyond repair. You regretted having cousins. Regretted staying home to babysit a mischievous kid. All thanks to ASUU strike. Hopefully, you somehow thanked God that you had saved your stories on your email as drafts. The only constraint was a device to access them since you had no laptop and your parents used Nokia phones. You looked round the compound, clueless and lost. ##** Guys , this is my current situation. And I have been ashamed to let you know. I don't know why, but it felt like I had lost the desire to publish anymore, but rest assured that I have figured out a way to post the remaining 6 updates. Honestly, I have to say... I will take them off after sometime because I still intend making something out of it but since my wickedness of depriving my readers of the rest has destroyed my tab and I'm not the type that borrows gadgets from people , even from friends due to reasons beyond my control, I will have to wait until I get a laptop , new tab or an android before I publish anything online, whether on okadabooks Amazon Kdp or createspace. Even on Nairaland. Please understand me here, I'm just trying to make ends meet... I'm the third of three boys from an average home and I have only one dream : Being an accomplished Author. You will pardon me for ignoring, yes ignoring your requests for continuation of the story and also my use of raw and quite loquacious english here. I do hope you understand my plea. It turned out that I have to keep my stories safe until I could comfortably share it with the world, but who is an author without readers? I doubt if I know the answer to that, or the situation it entails for any story teller. Nairaland is great and I thank everyone of you, both the ghost readers and my esteemed beta readers, the critiques and the cheerleaders. Without your reviews, I would have buried my writing career a long time ago. I got inspired by Wole Soyinka's The man died' and Our own Blessing Gaglo's (bibijay123) 's ' almost perfect' to start writing and you especially my dear reader to pursue this dream of mine. I sincerely hope that you will still stick with me while I test the frontiers of professionalism , writing relatable tales and making our taste for books ever intriguing in this dwindling economy of ours. Thank you for reading this. Updates comes up soon. |

Hmm... And this got my attention, issorite... |
I have a question to ask? Whats the basis for counting the words, Sorry to say but 200 words is quite small, and some stories here are quite too big ![]() |
adontcare:update 11 just dropped |
11... Continued.. The brand of X I pity you. ' Ray continued' but you are special and you don't know' ' Well you can start by telling me who the #BB6 is. I know he is not a ghost. And I will pierce a bullet through his eye if I meet him.' Only if he knew the big brother stood in the same room with him. ' His stupid order ruined my life. I'm stuck here because of his last 'hit'. It was supposed to be the end-" ' You wanted out. Correct? Ray asked with a certain look on his face. Ray took off his hoodie while he was in an opposite direction to Ben, he wore a big collar shirt and added a tie, he added his eye glasses and sat down. He brought out a file from under his desk. Ben asked what that file was. ' That code name BB6 is not just for fun. ' Ray began 'The boko haram ; the IPOB ; The ND avengers , the YOLICOM ; the badoos. Were planned moves of a bigger chess game. Last month we received a signal to go public... All I'm saying is that these were not lone wolves, the Leaders of these groups, all acted in unity to a single goal. A scheme known as the 'Apocalyse' 'Its coming soon.. And the Big brothers , that's Abubakar Shekau and Nnamdi Kanu, all the way down to Adeyinka Grandson, although they may seem to have different goals only did so as a disguise, a plot to deceive the government while they inflict collateral damage to country.. Until the final phase- the Apocalyse' he paused' You can't get out of this. You can't become the Nigerian Malcolm X, except you want to die' Ben was shocked at the revelation. 'And our gang leader is the #6? In this so gathering of activists. Wait ! Is this some kind of joke? We are the next break out terrorists . I don't understand, how does that affect me? Raymond got up, paced the room and came back to his seat. ' You see, that order for that last hit never came from the #BB6. I heard rumours' He paused' Phillip- I mean the B4 wanted you out of the gang. He knew it was impossible to erase you at close range so he plotted the raid and sudden arrival of the police' 'You 're important and since he wasn't chosen and he couldn't kill you directly as it would make him loose favor from the Big brother. He chose to put you in harms way' Ben sat up and frowned ' that explains it all' he paused. He should have known ' No guns .. No mask, this is a lite deal' the B4's words that night flashed through his head. 'what do you mean by being chosen? He snapped out of the past. Ray exhaled and looked into Ben's eyes. ' We are taking back this country from the hands of tyranny. This country is built on lies and deceit' Ben asked him how. Their gang comprised of petty thieves and was top secret. ' But funny, just a day ago. Things changed' Benedict said. Ray laughed. ' When the next summit happens, the Big brother #6 will present his leading commander to the council and then you will realise you are not just thieves but foot soldiers that steal to keep busy. A skill you will need' ' Don't you see it? Ray continued. ' Everything has been tailored for this moment. The Brother #12, its not just any code. It means something and soon you--' Ben got up . He tried to understand. ' So I'm the chosen commander for the next terrorist group to surface in Nigeria.. The Kvng Nazis? Or are we going by another name? he chuckled and shook his head. ' You are a comedian mr man.' He walked out to the lab and Ray followed closely. Ben did not want to hear anymore. He only wanted to get his girlfriend and get as far as he could from that location. ' What do you mean? So The B4 is like the devil while The big brother is.. God... And I'm like some chosen lamb. ' Ben said as he shot back at Ray who tried to convince him. He pushed the laboratory door open and stared into the empty room. He turned to face Ray. ' Where is she? ' She is safe and far from here' ' What do you mean? Ben began. ' What have you done to her? ' None of this should have happened. This is not happening, I lost my parents--,now I'm a terrorist in the making? No way!' ' That's why you were chosen. No one has been hurt by the society as much as you. Can't you see, the big brother has-' ' Damn the big brother' Ben cut in ' screw the Kindred Vikings Nigeria gang. And how come you know this much? You 're only a doctor.' Ben paused , his head was hot trying to understand the conspiracy. He opened the convenience door , the room was empty. He came back and met Ray standing in his path. ' I thought you were ready but I was wrong' Ray said. ' Get out of my way' Ben fumed. ' I'm sorry' Ben was puzzled. For what he asked. Before he could take a step, Ray stabbed him with a syringe to the neck. Ben fell down to the floor, and choked as he saw blurred images. ' What.. Wh- what was that? He asked. ' Who are you? Ray leaned forward and his face was a mirage to Benedict. All he saw was double of everything. His heart pounded in his head. His brains went down his anus. He felt pain all over. ' Its m99...don't worry the pain won't--" Ray's voice faded and what he said or did not say meant the difference between life and death for Ben as darkness followed. Tbc |

Continued Benedict let go off the man's clothes. He was confused and lost in the dark. The sudden change from professionalism to casualness; the muscles and now his sniper skills. That was more than a shock. All he wanted was to understand why he shot Yemi. 'Hello Benedict' Ray said albeit the tension. Ben inhaled and exhaled like a fumed pipe. He paced up and down with a gun in his hand, he wanted to nab the man behind the shootings; the bomb; and Charlie's murder. But now he had a suspect and he wanted to otherwise. ' How much did they pay you? Ben asked still not looking at him. ' I'll explain in the car-'' ' I don't want your stupid explanations!' Ben cut in. A siren bellowed at a distance and it was obvious the police were sweeping the area for suspects. Just time separated them from being caught. 'I'm still your doctor' Raymond said' come with me and I will tell you everything' He grasped Ben's arm with trust in his eyes; Ben pushed him up against the car and pressed the pistol on his cheeks. ' I'm tired of these games. I want answers. I want them now' 'And you will get them.. But not by killing me. If you do, you die too. Because you will be giving ' them' opportunity to do things the way they want' ' What is this man saying? Ben thought He looked away for a split second. Wrong move. Raymond stepped on his feet; Ben groaned in pain and swung a blow; Raymond twisted his arm; pain shot into Ben's medulla oblagata and he launched another blow with the gun in his free hand; Ray dodged and swiftly balanced with a punch to Ben's ribs, he geared upwards and knocked the gun to the floor; Ben turned , but his arms were already behind him and his face was against the car. ' Arghh' Ben groaned out as Ray hit the bandage on his arm. Ray used the opportunity to cover his head and neck. Ben felt his ear become hot as Ray leaned forward. ' You are stubborn and foolish and without someone watching your back , you would have died. You wanted to be a hero... Take down a dozen of officers, James Bond huh? Well guess what? That's in the movies, in real life, you die. They won't think twice to plant a bullet in your 'innocent' face for murder. Yes you are now a murder suspect. You should be proud. Hitman right? You 're very stupid. ' I did not do it' Ben yelled out trying to break free. ' Well somebody did and the dead can't speak for themselves... ' Ray breathed unto his skin' I warned you. I told you. Becareful, but you-' Ray released him, he heaved a sigh and picked up the gun. He held it out to Ben. ' If you think I'm an assassin like the fool I killed up there to man the sniper rifle.. to save your sorry a*ss.. Then do it. Shoot me.' Benedict snatched the gun and stood with pain. The effects of the drugs in his system waned away. His feet could not carry him much longer. He cocked the gun but hesitated to blast Ray to wonderland. ' If you won't, drop the gun and get in the car' He looked at Ben's leg' sorry about that, I don't like being at the mouth of the gun. Next time show me the rear' Ben was mute. He sighed and pulled the car 's door, his eyes focused on Ray. Raymond hopped in and ignited the engine. ' What's going on? Ben managed to ask. ' Is about time you know what you are up against. This is bigger than you think. Way bigger' Ray slammed on the pedals and fired the Suv down the streets. #### Back at the pharmacy, the entire staff had gone home for the day and everywhere was empty except the two men that walked into an office. the time was far spent and almost 10pm. The cold weather outside welcomed the sudden down pour and Ben hoped all his sins could be washed away. Those men he shot, blood everywhere and he found it hard to let go as it grip him tightly on the jaw. Ray pulled down window blinds and switched off the A.c ' What do you wish to hear? Raymond asked Ben when he switched on a flat screen on the wall. He kept the remote on the desk and rotated to face Benedict who gritted in pain. ' We are at war... Benedict and I need you in perfect condition for the days ahead. That's why I want to tell you everything and I mean 'everything.' Update 11 following asap... |
