mayor is the real boss

Looks like everybody is going to die in this one.

Mayor's heart is as strong as a rock, too bad Peter and Kate are victims in this terrorism.
Thanks for the update

The same thing Oscar is fighting against indirectly affected his only daughter. SAY NO TO TERRORISM!

topher topher my man, you never disappoint.

Peter and Kate are the sacrificial lambs.
Such a pity.

From the look of things, Oscar will either adopt Susan as a daughter, or make her his mistress (as a punishment for his daughter's death) or wife her.

If they weren't going for that abortion thing, Kate would still be alive. I hate that Kate died.

Oscar's World has literally grumbled.

Sanu da aiki, Topher.

Chapter Forty-Three
Blood Painting

Liq held Boko's shoulder. Boko turned to face him.

" I think we should go back. It's not worth it". Liq said.

Boko practically threw Liq's hand off his shoulder angrily and gave him a mean stare. " you can chicken back if you're too coward to face little humans!".

Liq's face turned into an angry frown. " I won't take such words from you Boko! How dare you call me! I! Liq of the eight squad a coward! Don't ever repeat that ever..."

" or what!". Boko interrupted facing Liq eyeballs-to-eyeballs. " what are you going to do about it?!"

Liq struggled with himself not to send a blow in Boko's face and then turned to leave but that would make him a coward. So he turned to Boko who stood watching, and walked past him. Then Boko followed from behind.

Boko knew Liq was an equal match he also knew how to manipulate people to do his biddings. For Liq, Boko knew Liq hated to be dared or made to look like a coward and he uses that always to his advantage.

They were now standing on a hill leading to the town. Boko turned to Liq and said. " he is there somewhere".

Liq was not comfortable with Boko whose anger had blinded his sense of reasoning but he couldn't stand to admit he chickened out, so he just stood looking at the roofs of houses cluttered together, little cars driving through the road networks and people moving to fro.

Boko began ascending down the hill not minding if Liq was coming. His mind was made up that he would see Andrew when he gets down, kill him and return to his cave.

Liq knew he was making a grave mistake but he heaved and followed from behind as he always did against his wish whenever Boko calls on him.

A teenage boy waiting to cross the road with his friend spotted Boko and Liq coming from a distance. He stood watching while his friend crossed without him. And when his friend got to the other side of the road, he noticed he crossed alone and turned to his friend still standing on the other side looking up the hill.

" what are you looking at?".

The stunned boy just pointed with a opened mouth. His friend followed his gaze and saw two mighty men carrying a huge batting and a cut to size tree trunk.

A lady screamed, pointing at the giants. This called attention of everyone and caused a huge panic.

Boko saw the way people were looking and felt threatened. He immediately threw the tree trunk in his hand towards a car. It compressed the driver's side of the car, swerving the driver's hand towards a shop.

Everyone took to their hills on different directions. There was pandemonium; cars bumping into each other, people running helter-skelter.

" how do we find him in this madness?!". Liq asked

Boko didn't answer him, his eyes was busy searching for Andrew.

" I think we should go back before they start shooting at us again". Liq buried his pride to say.

Boko wasn't listening. His eyes caught a man who looked so much like Andrew watching behind a building. Boko felt he had seen who he was looking for and Immediately started running down.

Liq shook his head regretfully and ran after him.

Boko jumped on the roof of a car and the roof sank in. He saw the man withdrew his head behind the building. Boko then leaped from where he was to the top of another car, and another, before he landed in front of the building and ran behind it, with Liq behind him pushing aside everything on his way.

The man ran up the stairs in fright looking behind him to know if Boko was coming.Boko caught him in time before he entered through a door.

Boko leaped and landed on the first storey, then pulled himself to the second storey of the building where the man entered.

The door was too narrow for him to assess, with a kick he pulled down the door, blew off some bricks from the wall to create wider space and bent in.

The occupants ran in horror and confusion helter-skelter. Boko blew down walls standing on his way as he bent walking searching for the man.

A body flew past Boko, and he turned to see Liq standing behind him. When he turned to his front, he caught sight of the man trying to jump down from the veranda. He quickly picked a big brick and threw at him, the brick hit the man in the head and he fell down the building.

Boko rushed to the veranda and saw the man lying carelessly on the floor, dead. He made to jump down but gunshots rained after him, one hit him in the shoulder pushing him backwards. He looked down and saw some military men positioned around their vans firing.

Liq quickly pulled Boko back in and said hastily. " let's go! ".

Boko looked at the blood on his shoulder and followed Liq through the back. But when the reached the back exit gunshots fired at them sporadically and one hit Liq in the forehead, he dropped on his knees and fell backwards.

Boko's eyes widened in horror. The soldier men were much. Some where already progressing forcefully up the stairs. Boko knew he had to fight. He turned around and saw a cabinet standing on a wall. He grabbed it and threw it on the soldier men climbing up the stairs, followed hurriedly and jumped past the men rolling down.

The men crowdedly attacked on both directions shooting at Boko, he raced towards the ones in front of him, in a swing, blew them off his way.

Another gunshots came from adjacent direction but he continued to run towards the hill with bullets raining on him.

He succeeded in getting close to the hill, but was too weak to climb up. Another gunshot hit him in the leg and he dropped to one knee, he turned to his back and saw some soldier men moving circumspectly towards him with AK's. Few more gunshot landed on his back and this time, he dropped on both knees breathing heavily. He dropped his hands to his sides weakly and some gunshots hit him so hard in the back, one pierced through his neck and blood poured down from his front throat. He was getting too weak and sleepy, he fought back sleep breathing, now slowly, but the sleep was too deep. He then gave in and closed his eyes still kneeling.

The men surrounded him from a distance waiting for him to move. One of the men courageously came closer, pushed Boko on his shoulder with his gun and he fell on his side.



Usman came down from his car and looked around tiredly. He check his wrist watch and yawned. He has been standing for six hours along the path to the camp waiting for his men to return in search for Abdul.

He walked to the back of the car to take a leak when he heard the engine of an approaching car. He hurried up and ran to see who it was.

One of the camp van's was approaching. He prayed they had good news as he waited in anticipation.

The car pulled over in front of his and two bulky men came down.

" any news?". Usman asked, knowing the answer from the look in the men's faces.

They shook their heads, and the taller of the men said. " we found the car you said he escaped in in flames".

Usman was surprised and devastated to hear the news. He looked puzzlingly at them and asked taking his words slowly. " did you see his corpse?".

The men exchanged ignorant glances and shook their heads at Usman remorsefully.

" you fools! Don't you know you ought to look around that parameter?! ". Usman yelled and rushed into his car. And brought his head out of the side glass. " what are you still doing! Will you come and take me there!". He bellowed at the men.

The two men rushed into their car and started towards the road, while Usman followed.

The end of Boko and Liq

Chapter Forty Four
Who is who

Oscar sat in his car smoking and thinking of how to get the information out of Mayor. He turned to his rear mirror looking at his overgrown beards and frowned, touched his side buds and looked away.

One of his men rushed to him and said hastily. " another attack!".

Oscar threw the rest of the cigarette away and puffed out the smoke in his mouth. " where?".

" General hospital". The man said weakly.

Oscars eyes widened and he came down from the car in shock. " hospital?! What an barbaric act?!".

Then he stormed out of the car and rushed past the man standing surprisingly looking at him. " we need to make him talk!". He said as he walked away.

Oscar pushed the door open, Mayor slowly looked up with eyes bloodshot. Oscar gave him few hot punches in the face and took out the key's of the cuffs from his pocket, loosened Mayor's hands from the seat and dragged him harshly out of the room.

Outside, Oscar pushed Mayor hard against the back of the Audi car he was in. His men came out wondering what he was up to but said nothing.

He gave Mayor a hot knee kick in the tummy and hit Mayor's head hard on the trunk of the car. Mayor fell on his butt and slowly wiped the blood on his face.

Oscar angrily took out the cuff in his back pocket and cuffed Mayor's hand to the back rear of the car and matched into the driver seat. Oscar's men watched with curiosity but said nothing.

He engaged the engine and drove off dragging Mayor on one hand behind the car on the stony ground.

" you think you are difficult! I will show you that I'm worse than you are!". Oscar raged as he drove Mayor around in zigzag and in circle.

After driving for five minutes, he stopped the engine and stepped down. Mayor's clothe was turned and his body bruised badly allover.

" are you ready to talk?". Oscar asked Mayor provocatively standing in front of him.

Mayor looked at him and spat on the floor, turned to Oscar again and said between his teeth breathing heavily. "my only regret is that i didn't tell my men to rape that LovePeddler you call a daughter and kill her afterwards with my little knife".

Oscar got wrought and wanted to kill him for mentioning his daughter in such manner, instead he entered the car and zoomed off pulling him on one hand behind.

Oscar then stopped the car after driving for a longer time. Mayor's body had ripped badly and bleeding, with his boxer remaining and little portion of his trouser hanging to his waist.

One of Oscar's men walked cautiously in a droopy face to Oscar and whispered into his ear eyeing Mayor who sat with a hand on his bleeding tommy. " The car rental company called". He looked at Mayor suspiciously.

" and ?". Oscar said hastily.

" they reported that the car we took Kate...".

" what happened to the car!". Oscar yelled impatiently.

The man looked at Mayor whose attention was drawn to Oscar's yell and pulled Oscar aside far from Mayor's eavesdropping.

"what is it". Oscar asked feeling nervous.

" the car is burnt in the general hospital". The man said and looked pitifully at Oscar.

Oscar looked completely flabbergasted, he refused to believe Kate has anything to do with it so he said. " but Kate has no business in the hospital, she didn't say anything about it".

"we don't know yet sir. But I have sent someone over.

Oscar turned angrily to Mayor, grabbed the butt of the gun on his waist, but his man held his arm and hastily whispered. " don't give him that gratification, don't even let him know. Stick to the plan sir".

Mayor hesitated and later returned his gun, then rushed into one of the jeeps and sped off to the hospital.



Usman got to the place where Abdul's car caught fire and looked around for a clue. One of the two men said to him.

"Let's check the town, it's few kilometers from here".

" and look where!". Usman retorted.

The other man chipped in. " I think he is right. Let's go and asked around".

" so you can think like this and you returned without him?". Usman asked staring at the two naive looking men.

Usman then walked to his car and zoomed off with the men following closely from behind.


Abdul sat beside Andrew on the floor with his back on the wall sleeping. One of the nurses came and stood beside him wondering what would make an Arabic man as intense as Abdul, judging by his look would care so much for a black man.

She slowly tapped Abdul on the shoulder and he rushed up looking aggressively around startling the nurse to spilling the water on her body.

when Abdul looked up and saw that he startled the beautiful looking young nurse covered up with only her face opened. He hurriedly stood up and apologized.

The nurse smiled, handed him the cup of water and walked away. He took it looking at her as she disappeared through the entrance door.

After emptying the content in the cup, he looked down at Andrew lying on his back breathing slowly. He winced at his body that was scared allover and spotted the cut on his side, then shook his head imagining what Andrew must have been through.

While he was about to seat beside Andrew, the engine of an approaching car called his attention, it just packed at the far corner from where he was. Slowly Abdul sat looking circumspectly at it. Another car pulled over behind it, and when the door opened, the person he saw alighting cut short his breath. He swiftly crawled into the hospital and peeped through a small opening on the wall at the men that just arrived. One of the patient; a starved looking man without a shirt on, in bald head and shaven face sitting on a small stool with his back on the wall beside the door saw Abdul crawled in and was looking confusingly at him.

Usman walked towards the hospital looking around with the men behind him. He came to where Andrew was and looked past Andrew without recognising him and at other patients lying outside.

" what kind of hospital is this?". He asked the men behind him and walked closer to the entrance.

The man looking at Abdul turned to Usman and shooting him the same stare he shot Abdul.

Usman took little notice of the man he was looking for someone sane or healthy to ask a question, but one of the men had gone to the man and was enquiring from him. The man looked into the hospital and pointed inside.

Usman turned to his man with a surprised look and said to patient hopefully. " are you sure?''.

The man nodded looking at the direction Abdul took.

Immediately they took out their weapons and the patient's eyes widened in horror but he remained on his seat.

They rushed in and scared the nurses. The men searched the seven filled up rooms but couldn't find Abdul.

The doctor lady came out to meet Usman. " please, what's going on?".

" I'm looking for a dangerous terrorist; tall, lanky, long dark hair and beards, full eyebrows with a scar beside his left eye. Have you seen him?".

The doctor's eyes gave out her concurrence to the description and Usman caught the hint.

Interesting update....welldone topher

Make nothing happen to Andrew sha

BankyGee:

Any way not today for Andrew!!!

Usman and Abdul will end up killing each other. I so pray Kate's situation can be salvaged. I don't want her dead.

Trouble trouble

Can Usman just die already

Chapter Forty-Five
Who dies

Usman turned abruptly around and shouted. "turn this place upside-down!". Then stormed into one of the rooms on his adjacent.

The doctor tried to stop him, he nudged her hard and she fell on top of a patient lying on a stretcher. Three nurses standing behind a counter rushed to help her up.

Usman and the men with him scattered every ward pushing down every patient from their bed, turning their beds over. In less than twenty minutes the hospital has been turned to a disarray.

Usman's eyes were bloodily ominous when he couldn't find Abdul. He went to the doctor and held her neck aggressively. " where the hell is he? You lied to me or you were kidding with me?".

The doctor looked confusingly at him and said in a shaky voice. "I..i said nothing! I didn't say anything to you sir".

The nurses behind the doctor made to beg Usman but couldn't fight off their fears, and so stood looking.

The two men came to Usman and shook their heads. Usman pushed the doctor aside and looked around the hospital. " he's somewhere, or has he gone?".

The men looked around for a place they haven't searched. Then one of them spotted the counter. The nurse earlier with Abdul filched and swallowed nervously.

The man moved to the counter without Usman nor his colleague noticing.

He slowly went over the counter and looked down. Coming closer to have a closer look; like a flash, someone jumped with a pen pointed forward and dug it into his neck and eyes swiftly and simultaneously grabbed the gun off the mans hand, and shot him in the head.

Usman and the other man turned abruptly but it was too late for the man next to Usman as a bullet hit him in the forehead. Usman immediately dodged and grabbed the doctor as shield.

" stop! Stop!". Usman screamed in fright hiding behind the doctor.

Abdul came closer breathing fast, the gun pointed at Usman steadily, his eyes narrowly ominous.

" stop! Please! I'm not here to harm you". Usman said and threw his gun on the floor. " the elder needs you! They have a job for you! Please stop!".

Abdul didn't believe him, he was hungry for Usman's blood. He rushed to get a better angle for a shot but Usman shielded with the petrified doctor.

" stop please! Don't kill me! I'm telling the truth!". Usman begged with a hand stretched forward.

Abdul tried again from another angle, Usman quickly moved with the doctor.

Abdul was furious, he was hungry for blood but didn't want to kill the doctor which was not his nature.

Since Usman killed his friend and family, something melted in him about killing innocent people. His anger was with Usman. Even as angry as he was, he refused to kill the doctor to get to Usman.

Usman searched the doctor's pocket with a shaky hand whispering into her ear nervously. " do you have a phone".

Then his hand stumbled on something in the doctor's left chest pocket. He dug his hand in and retrieved a phone. Then dialed fearfully with an eye on Abdul.

When the phone connected, he slide it on the floor to Abdul. Abdul picked it up and slowly put it in his ear with his eyes on Usman.

" hello... Abdul on the line... Yes sir....okay sir... I will sir!". Abdul finished, dropped the phone and his eyes softened.

" I told you! Now drop the gun please!". Usman said, hopefully looking at Abdul.

Abdul dropped the gun, and looked out through the window.

The nurse who helped him earlier was yet to take the shock off her face. The way Abdul handled the situation got her admiringly speechless.

Usman slowly let the doctor go, and courageously said to Abdul. " can we go now?" With his eyes on the gun.

Abdul nodded and began walking out through the door. The nurse ran to him, held his hand and whispered. " come and look for me. Please!".

Abdul looked at her thoughtfully but his mind was not with her, nevertheless he nodded, the nurse smiled and made to walk away, he held her hand and said. " take care of my friend".

She smiled and nodded. Abdul then walked away.

Usman slowly followed Abdul from behind droopily like a remorsefully child. Abdul suddenly stopped, turned to take a look at Andrew and said to Usman with his eyes still on Andrew. " do they have mortuary here?".

Usman followed Abdul's gaze and was surprised to see Andrew still alive. He wondered why Abdul should care where they bury Andrew. He suddenly felt Abdul must have gotten too attached. He then turn to Abdul to give his response but a straight shot hit him in the chest. He looked surprisingly at Abdul with a hand on where he was shot.

Abdul looked expressionlessly into Usman's eyes and shot him thrice again. Usman moved backwards still looking at Abdul.

Abdul stood watching with no expression on his face as Usman slowly sagged on his knees. Then he came closer wearily and emptied the rest of the bullets on Usman without blinking, and kept pressing the trigger after he had ran out of bullet. It took him some few seconds to realize he was out of bullet. He frowned down at Usman's battered body, threw the gun on him, turned and headed towards the car Usman came in and drove off.

The nurse stood looking stunned at the dead man lying in front of the hospital. A sudden fear engulfed her and she suddenly wished she never asked Abdul to come looking for her.



Oscar got to the hospital and the first thing he saw was the remains of the car that Kate drove off in with Susan.

He rushed out of the car and spontaneously headed for the hospital that was in smoke and crowded with cops, ambulances and paramedics attending to injured patients with firefighters coming out of the building with some unconscious persons.

Some cops held oscar back as he made to run past them, pushing him away from the building.

" my daughter is in there!". Oscar yelled.

" go back sir! Go back!". One of the cops bellowed pushing Oscar backwards.

" I have to see my daughter!" Oscar returned forcing his way in.

" sir! Please go back!". The cop said and turned to stop another distraughted fat Asian lady forcing her way in.

Oscar managed to force past in-between the cops and stood looking into the smoke covered hospital hoping to see Kate.

A firefighter rushed out with a girl on his shoulder. Oscar ran to him and pulled the lady down from firefighter's shoulder.

" Kate! Kate!" He called turning to her face in his arms but it wasn't Kate's.

" sir! ". The firefighter man said pushing Oscar away from her.

Oscar slowly stood up feeling sick in his stomach. He felt and overwhelming emotion taking over him, hot tears ran down his face even as he fought it back.

One of the cops came to him and pushing him away, this time he didn't protest, he just allowed himself to be pushed off.

He slowly went in front of his car crying as he looked around hoping to see Kate. Then a thought crossed through his mind to ask any of the paramedics or check the ambulance's. He wondered why he hadn't thought of it all the while.

Immediately he ran to a young paramedic hauling a victim into the back of an ambulance. Wiping his face clean he said .

" excuse me".

The man turned to him impatiently.

" where are the victims taken to?".


Susan spotted Oscar from an ambulance behind Oscar and immediately stood up. The nurse with her tried to push her back, but she insisted and yelling in a weak tone. " sir! Kate!". But her voice didn't go far.

" the government hospital". The young paramedic replied hastily and continued with what he was doing.

Oscar nodded and rushed to his car.

" please call that man running off! Please I beg you!". Susan cried emotionally desperate to the nurse with her.

The nurse turned to Oscar that was already getting to his car. And jumped off the ambulance and shouted running after Oscar. " hello! Hey!".

Oscar wasn't listening, he entered his car and engaged the engine before the nurse got to him he had driven off. The Nurse shook her head regretfully and turned to the ambulance but Susan wasn't there anymore.

Oscar was driving off when someone ran in front of him with her hands up. He immediately applied the break but the car hit the lady and she fell.

Oscar rushed out to see if he had killed someone but found Susan standing to her feet. He looked at her and immediately recognized the face even in her battered state.
