EPISODE 31
EPISODE TITLE-Karma is doomed








Susan breathed in and out but air wouldn't enter her lungs. Starved for air, her heart raced at tremendous speeds, and her lungs shallowly rose and fell in time, she stood there for what felt like an eternity but was actually only few seconds, Satisfaction of security was nothing but a distant memory , and an invisible force crushed her from every possible direction. Each second submerged in fear made a permanent mark on her heart, and a vivid imagination made her wander whether it was just her mind playing tricks or reality ..., she desperately tried to hide how fearful she was but it was useless since she couldn't silent her harsh breathe, A gaggle of goose pimples laminated her skin, Slow and deliberate the steps came closer and closer, then it stopped,the hairs on the nape of her neck bristled as her head bubble with conflicting thoughts, just then it occured to her the only logical thing to do is run away....

With that thought, she pull out the flash drive, pocket her phone and turn to walk away.., her heart froze when she heard something, something clanking on the ground, she didn't step on anything neither did she fall anything, it must be the other person in the house, regaining her breathe, she spun around one last time with hopes of catching glimpse of the other person, when she saw no one but a reflection of herself in the wall, she dashed out of the house in full force, , she ran, feet kissing the ground. Perhaps a little while ago she would have balked at the idea of finding out who the other person is, now she relish the prospect, she didn't find nurse Titi but she found something that could help her..

She bolted down the road to the gate, pushing the gate open in a hurry, outside, she look around with a clanging echo that matched her heart throbbing inside her chest, just then an idea crossed her mind, she looked at both corners of the fence, when she found an overgrown bush, she ran for it covering herself with it and letting the dim darkness do the rest....

She wheezes as her lungs gasp for air but she didn't care, she needed to see the person and a deep intincts tells her whoever the person is, he saw her and will be out to find her...

After some few minutes of crouching behind the leaves without seeing anyone come out from the house, Susan realise it was useless waiting, if whoever he is wanted to come out, he would be out by now, perhaps he was looking for something and still looking for it.., she grunt as ants began to flow around her foot, she furiously squashed some with her shoe before she came out from hiding, slowly with throbbing heart, she stepped out of the bush and make a few steps from the gate, then all of a sudden she turned back only to see someone in the thin darkness hurriedly running towards her..., her heart skipped from the shock, but she quickly snap from it and set herself to run but she was a split second too late...

A hand, rough and hard held hers but before he could get hold of her, a scream leap out from her mouth before she threw her other hand sloppily at his face hitting his eyes in the process, he let go for a while, she delve into the opportunity and once again took to her heels...

"Get back here.."His pursuers shouted...

Distance and safety was all that matters, Susan wasn't stopping for anything and she sure as hell not looking back to see if he's still chasing her.., even with her renting heart, She ran through a maze of buildings and winding side streets and in that moment all she could think of was Henry and Anita.., if she knew this was going to involve running for her life, she would have listen to Henry when he ask her not to go, she would have stayed back..

Her feet pounded the ground with all the grace of a sack of wet concrete, her rasping throat was as parched as a dead lizard, her head bobbed loosely from side to side with each footfall and her eyes felt heavy in their sockets...., when she saw a car approaching, it's yellow front light shoning bright into the road, she quickens her pace, if she could reach the car before her pursurer, she could escape, with the slightest of efforts, she ran faster..., then she stopped, realising the car was just a stone throw from her, she spun around but barely noticing anything, then she ran into the middle of the road and stretched out her hands to stop the car...

Her heart flew right out her chest as the car speedily stopped in front of her..., she close her eyes from shock and fear, she reopen them even with her breathe coming in short gasp, she went to the side of the car and knock on the screen, when the windscreen was rolled down, she opened her mouth to talk but what came out was engulfed in stutters...

"Help me.."She said, her words coming low than she anticipated...

"Please help me.."She said again, this time with a voice of a survivor..."Someone is after me, he wants to kill me.."

"Who's trying to kill you...?"The guy in the driver's seat ask..

Susan took a breather, then she moved her eyes around and quickly notice there were actually five guys seating in the car, one was sitting beside the driver while the other three were behind..,fear began to lick her from the bottom of her stomach, fear they may actually be bad people, she turn her gaze from them only to be welcome with the sight of her pursurer standing a few steps from the car, the front light of the car showing brightly in his face, he was short, a bit chubby with tattered hair and unshaved beards....

"It's him.."Susan shouted pointing at the man...., she watched the men in the car as they glance at each other like they were having a silent conversation, it quickly occur to her, her plea wasn't the right call.., these are bad men driving in the thief of the night, the opening of the car door pushed her a few steps from them.., then she watch in horror as the rest of the men alighted from the car.., her brain wants her to move, to run as far away as she can from these men but her legs were too weak to move an inch.., she stood paralysed to the spot as she's dragged into the menacing aura.., then all of a sudden she snap from it but she was a split second too late.., she was surrendered and if her intincts about the men is true, it means anywhere she turn to, she'll be caught....

Heart pounding, her eyes moved from the five men to her pursurer.., the fact that her pursurer wasn't moved by the sight of the five men made her more convinced she's been cornered..trapped...and only God can save her from the horror that's about to unfold..

"This is you right...?"

The deep voice snapped her from her thoughts and landed her roughly into reality., she revert her gaze from her pursurer only to be greeted by a photo of herself in one of the five men phones..., the shock dragged her backward..., her whole body shook like someone just deliver a fatal blow to her face.....

"You did well littlefinger...."One of the men said..

Heart renting, Susan manage to look at his pursurer face again as her brain desperately try to remenber where she have seen him..., when nothing came up, she look at the five men again and try to analyse the situation but was quickly snapped out of her thoughts by the buzzed of her loud ringtone, she quickly took the phone out and pounce the answer option when she knew its Henry calling...

"Henry help me, help me.."She shouted but was quickly short-speeched when the phone was taken from her by one of the five men....

"Who the hell are you talking to.."The man said, his voice sending cold chills down Susan's spines...

The man ended the call, drop the phone on the ground and smashed it with his shoe, the phone screen cascaded into broken fragments.....

Susan shiver as she thought through every holes and corners she can escape through, when she found none, she lower her gaze in search of anything, anything she could defend herself with..., no matter the plans they have for her, she isn't giving up without a fight.....










*****************
Samuel quickly turn off the car light upon reaching the bridge, he took a deep breathe and glance Festus way...
"Are you ready...?"He ask

Festus nod his heart, even with the fear lingering in his heart, he knew he needed to be strong..

"Let's do this.."Samuel said and with that, they both open the car doors and trot towards the car truck.., they glance at each other before Samuel open the car door, they took away their faces as the stench of the dead bodies find way to their nose.., Samuel spat before he helped Festus in carrying sergeant Owen dead body from the car truck..

Breathing heavily, both boys carried the dead body to the edge of the bridge.., they glance at each before they lifted the body and threw it inside the water..

Festus shiver as the body land with a thud in the water..

"Let's get the other bodies.."Samuel said..

Festus grudgingly followed him and together they carried the gateman body and the girl Sergeant Owen had killed and dump them in the water...

Satisfy, they didn't bother wasting anymore time before they ran into the car and in a slight minute, Samuel started the car and they drove off....

"This is the worst thing I've ever done.."Festus said as Samuel drive speedily on the express road...

Samuel's lips curl as he remenber Susan's words...."The worst is yet to come.."










*****************
Fear tortures Susan's guts, churning her stomach in tense cramps, it knocks every other thoughts aside as it overwhelms her body, making it drastically exhausted..., she hold the little stick her eyes could see firmly, she's standing firm and she aren't giving up without a fight.....

One of the men look at the other men.., as if been planned, they rumbled into laughter...

"What are you going to do with that stick...?"One of the men ask

"Touch me and you'll find out.."Susan replied immediately, she knew the stick was useless, six men against her and her only weapon against them was a stick that could break into pieces at the slightest touch, the stick is useless but it's the only weapon her eyes could see.....

"What do you want from me..?"She ask, her eyes carrying a level of fear she knew she shouldn't have..., whatever facade and powerful energy she was putting on, she know very well it's useless against six men...., what really are her chances.., she's trapped between life and death snd she fear death may be the end result....

When one of the men move towards her, she thrust the stick forward.., she watch, every part of her burning with anger as they rumbled into another round of laughter.....

"What do you want from me..?"Susan yelled..."Who sent you..., how did you know I'll be here.."

"I've been following you, you moròn..."Littlefinger chimes in..

Susan's brain quickly ran up to speed.., she quickly brood over about earlier at nurse Titi's house.., she had seen someone...it was him.., all this time she's been followed and she had no idea....., she glance up at them again but she was a little too late, one of the men rushed at her.., the sudden attack shook the living daylight from her, she lost her balance and she fell...

Just then they pounce on her, they rained blows onto Susan as if they meant to smash her into the very earth.. they didn't want her dead, they wanted her smashed, obliterated, nothing left to bury...

But Susan fought back, She pulled out hair in handfuls, scratched, bit, kicked and head-butted...., but quickly jotted out from the struggle when a fatal blow came for her stomach, then the attack on her became firece, efficient and deadly.., they left her bleeding on all sides.., then they torn off the clothes from her body baring every part of her naķed...., what followed were powerful kicks to her body and heavy boots landing fiercely on her legs....

A harsh gush of pain jolted throughout Susan’s body, her stomach ached, her arms lost tension and her legs began to weaken..., then they left her after a thorough beating...., Susan gasp for air as pain jolted through every part of her....

"Let's go lets go.."One of the men shouted when he saw a car front light coming from afar..

One of the men took out his phone and took multiple photos of Susan's nude body, then they ran into the car.., the one on the driver's seat started the car and drove the car forward, the tyres rode on Susan's legs, a rage full scream leap out from Susan's mouth as the car tyres came in contact with her legs, but the driver didn't stop, he ignore her screams and drove off, the tyres rolled over her legs breaking her leg bone and smashing the flash drive to pieces.....

Susan scream at the top of her voice with blood gushing out from her legs and mouth...., in a pool of her own blood, she began to creep on her stomach out of the road..., she creep into a mud.., the pains dragging every part of her, just then hot tears tinted with her blood rolled off her eyes.., she couldn't take the pain, her body was too weak..little by little, her sight began to fade until the pain sweep her into a terrific oblivion of unconsciousness










**************
As the car tyres swing into his house street, Samuel reach out to his phone to see the messages that has been beeping no stop..., he stopped the car as he look the pictures that were sent to his phone...

"Oh God she did it.."Festus said collecting the phone from Samuel...., he zoom the picture taking a closer look at her naķedness......"Do you think she's dead...?"

Samuel look his way, then he turn his gaze away and restart the car...."I hope she's dead..."

Festus exhale and took another look at Susan's battered and naķed body pictures....."What about Anita.., what did Dr Charana say..?"

"She's exactly where I want her.."Samuel said with a feeling of hatred that could make the world scarlet...."Mad..."

"Do you believe in karma..?"Festus ask...

Samuel glance his way..."I believe this world sits on two side of a coin..., you kill or be killed, betray or be betrayed, you ruin or be ruined and if Karma really exists....., then I'll be waiting for it...."

Festus suck his teeth and look at Susan's naķed pictures again...."What if Karma is a she....a mad she....?"

Samuel glance his way, just then evil thoughts began to cross his minds, every move, every attack was well laid out in his head, anger surged through him before he open his mouth to reply......"Then karma is doomed.."

The dark room was like a place out of time, a place to rest without consequence, but for nurse Titi, it was a place of torment, a place she wished she'll never be..., but her greed led her to this place..and an intincts tells her it will be her final destination...

When the door open, the turn on of the switch streamed in the bulb light in its bold confidence, Nurse Titi shut her eyes for a second only to reopen them to see two men standing at the door, one was of the men who had brought her there and the other was the one she had met in the company, the one she had told everything...the one she threatened....

"Hello..."Mr Smith said dragging a bench not far from where nurse Titi was tied to himself...,in all confidence, he sat down and position himself to face her....."Ungag her.."He said to the men beside him..

The man wasted no time before he trot towards nurse Titi and took out the gag from Nurse Titi's mouth...

Nurse Titi heaved in a deep breathe the moment the gag came out from her mouth.., regaining herself and filtering in more breathe, she raise her head to face him......"You.."She said, her brain trying to fathom the reason why he would kidnap her....."Are you working for Samuel..?"

"No.."Mr Smith said with the intentions of reclining his back but quickly realise the bench has no resting side...."As a matter of fact Samuel knows nothing about this..."

"So it's you then.."Said nurse Titi..."You're the bastard who brought me here..., I've done nothing to you.."

"Nothing..!"Mr Smith reiterate...."You threatened the company, do you remenber that..?"

Nurse Titi frown at the bitter truth...."My fight is with Samuel.., you have to let me go.."

"Samuel was rewarded by the company you threatened...., hypothetically.., Samuel is part of the company..., if I let you go, you'll go public and whatever you dished out from your mouth won't only affect Samuel but the company as well and everything will fall back to me and I've worked so hard to get to this stage of my life...., if you go public, the press takes the news.., the news get heated and everyone will begin to answer questions..., the CEO, our sponsors and me and you know the irony of it.., if my answers are not favourable, I lose my job...."

"So what are you going to do...kill me..?"Nurse Titi queried.., fear slowly creeping from the pot of her stomach, but she kept her facade..., showing weakness will only make it worse...

"Well that totally depends on what you tell me..."

"I've told you everything.."She retorted..."Samuel made Anita mad after he stole her story.."

"I'm not talking about Anita.. "Mr Smith blare out.., then he took a breather to reduce the tempo of his voice ...."You spoke about a recording of your conversation with Samuel...., I want that recording, tell me where it is and I'll let you go.."

Nurse Titi scoffs quickly realising she could use the recording as a leverage...."You know that's my only weapon against Samuel, if I give it out, my testimony becomes useless..."

"Let me help you rephrase that.."Mr Smith said.."If you don't give it to me, you'll die.."

Cold chills ran down nurse Titi's spines....."How do I know you won't kill me after I give to you..."

"Well you just have to trust me.."

"Trust you...!"She reiterates.."How could I possibly trust a man who sent thugs to have me kidnap...

"Where is it..?"Mr Smith cut in angrily..

"In safe hands..."Nurse Titi fling back, her voice carrying a thread of anger that could burn through mental.. "Kill me if you want, the truth will still be out and the company you so care for..., it's integrity will be questioned.. "

"I'm going to ask one last time.."Mr Smith said extending his left arm to the thug standing beside him.., when the thug gave him a gun and a silencer, Nurse Titi knew right there, her life was hanging on a thread.....

"Where is the recording....?"Mr Smith ask as he rolled the silencer on the gun muzzle..

Nurse Titi heart races, adrenaline flooding her system as she fixed her eyes on the gun, then she assured herself she shouldn't be scared...he's just threatening her with the sight of the gun....

"You should know I told someone if he doesn't hear anything from me before the end of today..., he should send the recording out.."Nurse Titi said."So it's just like I said.., weather you kill me or not, the truth about Samuel will still be out.."She nibbed, her head bouncing with different thoughts.."Or we could come to a compromise..., let's ruin Samuel together.., I make a statement that debars your company, your company stay safe, Samuel is ruined and we all go home happy....."

"You're an essential risk and a threat..., tell me where the recording is.."

"That's my only leverage.."She stated angrily.."I let it go and I'm done for.. "

"You're right.."Mr Smith said..."You're done for.."He sniffed, look at the thug before reverting his gaze to her..."I guess I'll just to find another way to get that recording...."He said, exhale, then he hold the trigger and just when nurse Titi was about talking..he pulled the trigger....

The bullet went straight for Nurse Titi's head and her blood splashed on the wall releasing her to the cold hands of death...

"Dispose her body.."Mr Smith said handling the gun back to the thug..."And I want you to find out where she stays, who she talks to..I want that recording found..."

"Yes boss.."







******************
The night rides in the horse of pure darkness, Susan found the darkness strange and scary, This was a blackness that she couldn't recall seeing before - one that was almost absolute. When she tilted her head skyward she could see clearly millions of bright stars dotted on the black canvas of night, yet none of that light seemed to filter far enough down to make any difference when she turned her eyes away...., her heart clouded with not just the horrors of the night but fear..the fear she had cloth right the very moment she mastered the idea of going to nurse Titi's house again....., earlier she had a serious argument with Henry about going to nurse Titi's house, she had told him to accompany her to the house but he was adamant to the fact.., said she should forget since Anita brother had decided her fate.., added no matter what she find out, it won't make any difference.., Matthew already believe Anita sold the story so she could cater for their sick father....

She clung her jacket to herself to wear off the cold threatening to tear her skin apart.., she remenber the words she said to Samuel and those words have driven her to take this action.., she knew it wasn't right, a young girl threading on a street of terror in the pure blackness of the night..., but she needed to know the truth, Anita went mad after leaving the hospital and since Doctor Bright isn't in the position to answer any of her questions.., Nurse Titi is her last option and in exposing the truth she feels Nurse Titi Will play a vital role..

She got to the gate of the house only to notice it was wide open.., fear crippled her mind.., her heart slamming hard against her chest...

She took a breather and quickly took out her phone, she glance at her time, it was 8:23pm...,, she breathe slowly allowing every fear she was feeling to elude her.., she pan her phone torchlight round before she walked in..., the compound was just the same way it was earlier.., quiet, deserted, scary....

Fear circling her mind, she stepped inside the compound and quickly head straight for Nurse Titi's house..., no light was put on inside the house and it made her wonder if anyone was in..., she pan her torchlight in the window, noticing no one was in, she walked towards the door and knock.., then she turn down the knob, surprisingly, the door open..

For a moment she stood and dance to the tone of her fear.., earlier on when she came she had tried opening the door, it was locked...., she walked in, the echoe of her steps sending a reminder to her she is threading on dangerous ground...

She pan her torchlight around, the house was scattered, chairs and tables turned upside down, the sudden thought that someone was in the house scared her to death.., for a second, she stood frozen to the spot as different thoughts began to bounce around in her head...

Her heart echoing, she stepped forward, a creaking glass sound quickly sent a signal to her brain she had stepped on something.., she pan the torchlight on her toes, she had stepped on nurse Titi's picture....., she took another deep breathe and it occured to her nurse Titi isn't in the house.., from the way the house was turned upside down, anyone could tell someone was looking for something..., what could it be and who could it be....

"Nurse Titi.."She mutter but no reply came..

She sigh realising her efforts coming to nurse Titi house has been nothing but a waste of time, she look around a little bit, then she turn around with the intentions of leaving but her elbow hit something.., the clattering and clanking sound sending a signal to her brain she had broken something ..., her heart jumped for a second, when she was settled she glance downward, her phone torchlight following the direction of her face, she notice it's a flower vase that fell and broke.., she was about walking out when her eyes caught something.., she look down again and notice it was a flash drive and a paper.., she bow down.., her eyes widened with extreme shock when she read the words written in the paper..

"Oh God.."She mutter with pants breathe wondering why nurse Titi Will hid a paper saying her discussion with Samuel and a flash drive in a flower vase.., then she looked at the house again.., someone was looking for something..what if they were looking for a flash drive..

Her brain went overdrive before she look at the flash drive again and quickly plugged it to her phone, she entered it and just one voice recording was in the content...., curiosity dawned on her, she entered the recording and played it..

Her feet nearly collaspe her body as she listened to the conversation between nurse Titi and Samuel...., she was right...., Samuel and Nurse Titi, they made Anita mad.., they made her best friend mad...

Her heart race when she heard a sound.., she turned with the alertness of the sound.., she pan her torchlight only to hear the footsteps of someone, someone that isn't her....., right there she realise she isn't the only one in the house......

EPISODE 30
EPISODE TITLE-Until you lose it all








Rage build like deep currents inside Samuel as he glare at Susan, once more the hot slap came slamming his face over and over, it infuriated him more, his fingertips deep more into his palm and just when he was about reacting, Festus hold him dragging him back against every effort to send back what was received from his enemy..

Henry did same, carrying Susan back and stopping her from going any further to Samuel..

"How dare you..?"Samuel yell struggling to free from Festus hold, his rage nearly consuming him..

Susan nearly pounce on him but Henry hands around her waist hold her back, she slapped his hand turning her head vigorously, the animosity of the rage thrumming through her veins making her mince with a scream that came as a loud uproar......

"Devil..."Susan shouted at the top of her voice.........

From where Success stood, she could imagine the powerful resentment Susan has towards Samuel.., anyone in her shoes will probably do same.., wanting not to be seen, she retrace herself back into a corner, with the hugh tension in the air, no one would probably look her way.., she hid and watch from a corner as every action unfold right before her eyes...

Once more, Samuel let his eyes dig into hers, almost at the verge of choking in his rage.., she slapped him.., no one, not even in his secondary school days has anyone slapped him and he didn't clap back.., this is a slap in his face and if he doesn't react, he'll never be at peace...

"You monster.."Susan yelled again troting forward but her steps were limited by Henry's hold on her...."I swear to God you're going to pay for everything you did to my friend.."She added, going breathless with anger....

"Get out of here.."Festus hollered holding Samuel back..
Susan stare angrily at him, nearly suffocating on her fury...

"Let's get out of here...."Matthew said

Susan ignored him and listen to the fury twisting inside of her, once again, she tried walking towards Samuel but Henry's hands on her hold her back.., it infuriated her, her irritation flared and she mentally snapped by hitting Henry's jaw with her elbow...

Pain erupted from the point of contact and for a second, Henry lost hold of her, Susan took the opportunity and was about running towards Samuel when the least person she expected to stop her hold her back...

"Hey hey hey.."Matthew said in a rush as he grab her hand...

Susan raised her furious gaze to her with the alertness of the words...

"Let me handle this okay.."Matthew said with a cringe at where Samuel was standing...

"Please do..."Henry chimes in taking Susan from her ...

Susan's angry gaze shift from the two men by her side to Samuel, once again the reminder of everything he has done to Anita came running back into her head pushing her against every boundary of her limits...

Anger festering on Samuel, he clenched his fist once again as he weigh the pros and cons of enacting a possible and deadly payback..., she hit him.., she will pay, she and her friend will pay..

"Just let it go okay.."Festus stated gently...."She's not worth it..."

Matthew took a deep breathe, for a moment he just stood looking at Samuel, then he took a step and then another till he got to the gate.., he stood as if waiting for permission to cross over.., his head brood over everything he's been told about Samuel, how he arrested his sister and had her mad after stealing her story.., curiosity festered on him prompting him forward.....

Samuel looks daggers at him, his brows drew together as questions of where he has met him rumbled in his head....

"I heard you stole my sister's story..."Matthew stated concentrating on his words rather than dwell in thoughts of his sister...

Samuel quickly and forcefully free his hand from Matthew's hold before he bore his eyes on Matthew....."I stole no one's story.."He scowled....

"Did you arrest her..?"Matthew ask, his edge of irritation returning in a full force...

"I can have you arrested too..."Samuel retorted..."Where you stand is my property and you're trespassing.. , so get the hell out of my house.."

"Did you make my sister mad...?"Matthew queried

"Get out.."Samuel hollered

"Did you make my sister mad..?"Matthew yelled..

"He didn't..."Festus chime in...."Don't believe whatever that girl tells you.."

"I'm not talking about that girl, I'm talking about my sister.."Matthew retorted, his rage becoming a cold shoulder of suppressed anger...

Susan holds still, staring at Samuel , eyes locked right on him as he spout lies after lies, There is a wrinkle in her nose that has nothing to do with a coming sneeze, muscles tight, jaw clenched..., then her eyes caught something, someone behind Samuel and Festus..., her brain scrabbled to believe who she's seeing.., finding it hard to believe, she fixated her eyes on the person approaching them.., she quickly recognise her.., she still wore that expression of betrayal, the same expression she had on when she slept with Anita's boyfriend years ago..., then she took a step, a step towards the friend who had betrayed them before and showing her ugly carcass again.., she took another step slowly freeing herself from Henry's grip, her steps striking an epic series of movie-stills, fists moving as her face contorts into an expression she's never worn before....

Success stopped in her tracks as everyone fix their gaze on her, her eyes moved from Samuel to Matthew and then to Susan, she felt a tightening in her throat as if she's been strangled as she locked gaze with Susan..., the rage in Susan eyes held all the power of a wildfire, she could practically see the flames roaring in her eyes, ready to ignite anything that she came in contact with..
She suck in a deep breathe before she shift her gaze from her and finally settled them on Matthew...

"He's telling the truth...."Success said, the alertness of the words carrying a blow that shook the heart of everyone who heard it..

"The story is his.."Success added before the shock could fade from their faces..

Susan's brain went on overdrive as it picked every moment that she'd spent with Success. The memories weighed down on her but instead of breaking even more, her heart turned ice cold and slunk into nothingness as her brain took complete control. The anger in her stomach rose up to her chest and crawling through her veins, took over the rest of her body. Her fingers coiled into fists.., waves of fury rolled off her as she took another step, when Henry's hand pull her back, she shift her angry gaze at him and forcefully pull off from him....

"Liar.."Susan yelled turning to face Success...

"Then I guess Anita never told you then.."Success said regaining her lost composure..., Festus was right, she has to choose a side..., she's doing the right thing by picking the millionaire's side even if it means bringing some old friends down....

"Never told her what...?"Matthew queried immediately

"I was there when Anita sold the story to an anonymous person and this anonymous person happens to be Samuel..."Success said

Lips curled, Susan drew closer...."Anita will never sell her story.."

"She didn't tell you.."Success fling back..."Because she knows you wouldn't be happy..., she sold Tamara out and Samuel won the competition with it..., she told me herself she needed money for her father's hospital bill...., that's why she sold it and lose every right to the story.."

Susan nibbed her lips and walk closer but Henry hold her to refrain her from going any further....

"Is this true..?"Matthew ask shifting his gaze to Susan..

Frown lines encroaching on her forehead, Susan look at him, right there it occured to her Matthew wouldn't do anything just as he wasn't able to do anything to get Anita from the hospital.., she ignored his question and fused her whole attention on Success.....

"Betray us once..."Susan said trying hard to keep her cool....."Betray us twice..., shame on you.."

Success eyes widened, then she fold her hands and wore a lousy taunting smile..."If saying the truth means betraying..., then I think betraying needs to be redefine...."

Susan scoffs as she move her gaze from Success to Festus and then to Samuel....."I don't know how you manage to make my friend mad..."She said, her anger building back...."But I promise you one thing Samuel, you'll regret everything you've ever done to us..., everything you love, everything you hold dear and care for will be taken away.., I swear on my parents grave, until you're reduce to nothing but a tattered, necessitous peasant, I'll have no rest.."

"Are you threatening me..?"Samuel queried...

"Enjoy your wealth while it last.."Susan said, then she returned her gaze to Success, without a word to her, she spun around...

"Let's go Henry..."She said walking away....

"Matthew..."Henry mutter..

Matthew hesitated before he followed Henry, together they ran to catch up with Susan...

Heaving in a deep breathe, Festus let go of Samuel and trot towards the gate to bolt it......"Good riddance to bad rubbish.."He muttered..

Once again Samuel's fist clenched, Susan's words replaying over and over in his head.., he'll make her and her friend pay, not just for the slap but for threatening him..., she threw the first blow, now he'll show them that without money..man is useless...

Hello friends..really sorry I haven't updated, so many things have been going on with me lately..., you guys should know I haven't forgotten you guys neither have I abandon the story...expect an update soon..

EPISODE 29
EPISODE TITLE-A monstrous collision









In a grip of silent panic, Success look at Samuel as he paces around.., she turn away, her face turning into a mental soup of conflicting instructions, the negative thoughts in her head keep coming like waves on rocks, her eyes moved to Samuel again who was pacing and moving around irrationally. The arguments in her head get so fast and so disturbing that her brain shuts down her body..., she tilt her head only to settle her gaze on Festus whose hands were shaking as he cleaned the blood from the ground.. but the more he kept mopping, the more the blood kept dropping from the dead sergeant reminding them of what they did...how they killed him......

"Aren't we going to take the body out of here..?"Success ask, fear building like an unstoppable snowball in the pit of her stomach...

Samuel felt the need to move almost without end, the memories of what happened replaying over and over in his head....

"Sure.."Samuel replied stopping to look at her...."But not now.."He added moving his gaze to Festus..

"What about the gateman he shot..?"Festus ask with shaking mouth..

Samuel shudder for a second as he weigh the pros and cons of how he can get the bodies out of his house without getting caught.., enough air gets by allowing his body to keep functioning but it was crippling all the same...

"This is your fault.."He latched at Festus when no plan suffices in his head...."If you had not open that door, none of this would have happened..."

"I didn't open the door..."Festus yelled back throwing down the blood soaked rag on the floor...."The door was opened.., how many times am I going to tell you I was sleeping when he came in and point the gun to my head..."

"But you did brought him to my room..."Samuel said brooding over the moment his room door was opened......"You wanted him to kill me.."

"He would have killed me.."Festus fling back.."You see how mad he was.."

"So you brought him to me to save yourself....., you prefer it's me that gets killed so you could save your own skin.."

"You're just been paranoid.."Festus said.."What would you have done if you were in my shoes...?"

"Guys.."Success chimes in realising their persistent arguments isn't taking them anywhere.., for God sake two dead bodies are laying in their house......

"Stop it okay.."Success shouted, her voice carrying a thread of anger that erupts silence in the house....."We have two bodies laying dead and you two stand here and argue over nonsense..."

"Nonsense..!"Samuel reiterated.."You weren't....

"I saved you.."Success cut into his words....."He's dead and you're alive so quit this stupid blame thing and think what we're going to do.."

Samuel huff, glare at Festus before he looked away..

"We should call the police.."Success said, the seriousness of the words making the other two look at her..

"The police..!"Festus reiterated with open mouth..

"We can't call the police.."Samuel said...

"Don't you realise what this is.."Said Success..."There are two dead people and they happen to be laying in your house.."

"That's the more reason we can't call the police.."Samuel replied immediately...."What do you want, to go to prison..?"

Success shrug.."We can make a statement.., whatever happened was self defence..."

"No policeman would listen to that.."Festus chime in dropping the rag once again..."We killed one of them.."

"He was corrupt.."Success said back..."He tried to kill us, you fought him off and shot him ..."

"And the police will just buy it just like that.."Samuel said tilting his head forward.

"But that's the truth.."

"Yeah to us.."Festus chime in...

Samuel grunts, look towards the door before turning to face Success again..."Look we can't call the police.., it's too risky.."

"To who..?"Success ask

"To all of us..."He fling back..."The only thing we can do is thrash their bodies somewhere and wait for someone to find it.."

"What if you get caught doing that or what if someone recognises the gateman.., the media will trace it back to us...."

"That's our only plan.."

"Calling the police is also a plan.."

"Do you see me..?"Festus chime in raising his blood stained hand..."I'm already wiping the blood out, even if we wanted to call the police, it's too late now..., the police will think we killed him on purpose and tried to hide every form of evidence..."

"What you're saying makes no sense...."Success said back..."Calling the police is a good move.."

"I don't agree to it okay.."Samuel yelled before he took a deep breathe to calm his panic....."Don't forget the country you're living in.., people will do anything, just anything to drag you down.., involving the police means involving the press and the whole world..., i already have too much problems at hand to add another....."

"Well whatever you're planning, I just hope it doesn't land us in trouble than we already are..."








****************
"Thank God.."Henry said slightly hugging Susan...

"Where is he..?"Susan queried separating herself from the hug..

Henry parted from the hug and open the door widely before paving way for her to walk into his house..."Toilet.."He said pointing at the direction ...

Susan walk in, her face still hardened by the news she got earlier...., throwing her small purse down, she watched it bounce on the chair before she sat down beside it.., she look at the house for a while like it was her first time before she glance over at Henry, she caught him standing, his eyes fixated on her...., he should know she have no time for any eyes loving dovey..., what is at hand is serious, her friend is mad and has been forcefully taken to a psychiatric home and just when she had a pinch of hope her friend will be safe with the arrival of her brother...she heard the ugliest latest..

When the bathroom door creaks, she moved her gaze towards the curtain covering it.., she waited, her breathe comings in short gasp until he came out from the blinds...

"This is Susan.."Henry rushed into introductions..., he turn Susan's way only to be greeted by her knitted brows.., it was a sign.., another way of telling him he needs to shut up.., his mouth involuntarily twiched before he sat down.....

"Hi.."Matthew said to Susan taking his head down to make sure his fly was zipped.., satisfied he looked up back at her...

"I'm Anita's friend..."Susan picked up the leftovers intro of Henry....

"She has told me so much about you.."Matthew said extending his hand for a handshake but when Susan didn't budge neither did she stand up to receive it, he withdrew his hand.....

"You didn't take her from there..."Susan said immediately

Matthew sigh, the awful reminder of what happened at the mental asylum made him suck his nose in the air....."No.."He said, his voice rumbling low...

"Why..?"Susan dragged between her teeth, then she stood up almost as if she's going to knock some sense into him..."Didn't he tell you.., Anita was forcefully taken to that place and when we tried to get her back, we were sent out"

"Yeah your friend brief me all this..."Matthew said with a cringe at Henry..."But i came to understand that whatever happened was for my sister's own good.."

"How could you delve into conclusions.."Susan raved..."You weren't even here to see what happened.., i was there when it started, I was there when they took her...., whatever that doctor told you is not true.., Anita's life is in danger there.."

"How did you even know that..?"Matthew ask

Susan almost hissed at the question.."You think we would lie over something like this..., that doctor is working for the very person who started all this bullshit..., do you even know your sister was arrested, brutally beaten and rushed to the hospital....?"

Matthew sniffled.."Yeah Henry told me all that.."

"And yet you signed..?"

"What choice do I have..?"Matthew stated with a shrug....

"There is always a choice.."Susan blare out..

"And i made mine.."Matthew replied.., he still for a bit before he opened his mouth to talk again..."Look, in order to clear your doubts.., i looked into that mental asylum and the doctor online, she seem to be good at your job.."

"Oh please don't kid me.."Susan gawked at him..."The Internet will always tell you what they want you to know.."

"I made some calls too..."Matthew stated.."The doctor seems to be legit.."

"Forget the legit bullshit.."Susan yelled.., her voice carrying a volume loud enough to call neighbours attention....."Your sister is in danger in that place and if you don't take her out, only God knows what she'll suffer in that place.."

"Look..."Matthew said sucking his teeth..."Even if I wanted to take my sister out of there, I have no money to admit her into a private or any other mental asylum..., my dad is sick as it is and with Anita like this, all the responsibilities beats down to me.., i can't catered for Anita's needs and same time care for my dad and younger ones....."

"So you took the cheapest option..?"Susan ask angrily...

Henry notice Susan was burning inside and if not stopped anytime soon.., she might erupts and the result will probably be bad.., he stood up with the intentions of pouring water in the heating fire...

"I didn't choose.."Matthew replied...."It was the only good call to make.."

"You think entrusting your sister's life to the very people who made her mad is a good call..., you must be the brother of the year.."

Matthew turn away trying hard to keep his anger in check.., every word swung from Susan's mouth was like gasoline to the flames inside him and he fears if he doesn't turn away..he might react badly...

"If i may ask.."He said reverting his gaze back to her..."How did my sister go mad.., since you said you were always with her, i believe you know this..."

Susan lips drew into a snarl as the words fell on her ears..."I don't know.."She said...."She was fine before she was arrested.., then she was beaten, taken to the hospital and the next morning.., she became mad.."

"Just like that..?"Matthew ask

"That's what happened.."Henry chimes in when he notice the stony look in Susan's eyes...."How she became mad is still a misery to us but we have our suspicion..., the guy I told you stole her story.., he must be the one behind everything...., your sister was on her way to defend herself and take back what rightfully belongs to her..., she went gaga before any of it could happen..."

Matthew grunts, he look away as the thoughts of Anita find way to his head again...."Can we go now..?"He ask turning back to face them

Henry look at Susan as if the reply to the question is in her face..."Yes.."

"Where are you going..?"Susan ask immediately

"To Samuel's house.."Henry said...."He said he wants to see the bastard who stole his sister's story..."

The corners of Susan's lips twiched before she pick up her purse..."I'm coming with you two..."









***************
"Come on raise him up..."Samuel said as he carried the gateman legs while Festus raised him up by his shoulder.., together they carried the liveless body into the generator house at the back of the house, their feet dragging against every step it took to get to the generator house.., finally getting there, they dropped the body beside Sergeant Owen's body......

"What do we do now..?" Ask Success folding her hands across her chest..

Samuel quickly took off the handgloves and wipe a gleen of sweat from his forehead...."Now we wait till nightfall...."

"Where are you even planning on dumping their bodies...?"Success ask

"How many times do I have to say it.."Samuel retorted..."The bridge of course..., the waters will watch them offshore or some fishermen and whoever the hell it is will find their bodies..., nobody will trace anything to us.."

"What about the gateman...?"Success ask

"Who cares about him..."Samuel said.."Nobody even knows him.."

"I'm not okay with this.."Said Success as she move from her standing position to another place...."If you had taken securities when I asked you to, none of this bullshit would have happened..., you chose to keep just the gateman and now he's dead, and you'll probably be dead too if i haven't come to save your ass..."

"Can you be quiet.."Samuel hollered..."You saved me, i already said my thank you..., why are you still gloating about it..?"

"I'm not gloating..."Success fling back and fold her hands again

"Can you guys hear anything...?"Festus ask holding his ears to key into the sound he was hearing..

"My tab.."Samuel demanded extending his hand...

Success quickly spun around and pick up a Samsung tablet that was on a block behind her.., without hesitation she handed it to him...

Samuel took a deep breathe as he look at the camera display sync on his phone...."If that bastard hasn't broken my phone, I will be making some calls now.."He sneer, then his eyes turn wide open when he zoomed the camera footage from outside the house and saw three persons standing outside his gate and knocking without stop...

"Oh my God..!"Success exclaimed when she took a look at the camera..

"Isn't that Anita's friend..?"Festus ask looking at the camera..

"That's her.."Success said..."That's Susan and her boyfriend..."

"And who's the third person...?"Festus ask

"I have no idea.."Success said.."What are they even doing here...?"

"These people don't want to leave me the hell alone.."Samuel said with flaring nose..

"You started this.."Success said...."What did you expect, everybody will just go home and sleep peacefully after you made their friend mad....?".

"What are you going to do..?"Festus ask Samuel.."Are you going to meet them..?"

"Sure.."Samuel said angrily..."Somebody needs to put these peasants in their place.."

Samuel dust off himself, glance Success way before he walked out of the backyard..

"Aren't you coming...?"Festus ask Success..

"Hell no...."She said to him..

"Watch the dead bodies then.."Festus said and quickly ran after Samuel..

Festus words quickly made Success shudder, then she looked at the dead bodies..., she startled and move an inch back, then she began to imagine the crazy stories she have heard about ghost.., the thoughts crippled her for a sec before she snap out of it and ran the directions the boys had took...

Rage licking through Samuel.., he look around making sure all the cameras in the compound are in perfect shape.., then he look at the floor, the blood drain from the gateman body was now dried on the floor, he ignored it and went to open the gate, there he realised it wasn't just bolted but padlocked.....

When a loud knock rang on the door again.., he grew annoyed and began to look around for anything he could tear down the padlock with..., he rushed into the gateman house.., scattered a few things until he saw a hammer.., he carried it and ran back outside.., he was already angry and he needed to pour down his frustration and anger on someone and just the right people were on the other side of the gate... .

"Samuel what are you doing...?"Festus ask

Samuel ignored him, with an effort and in one swing.., he broke the padlock with the hammed.., unbolt the gate and opened it...

Dark, piecing and life threatening glares shook the fine air surrounding them..., with the hammer in one side of Samuel's hand, he clenched his other fist with a vein popping out from the back of his head...

Susan stepped forward, eyes totally unblinking, just then the awful memories of everything he has done to her and Anita began to cross her head.., it pushed her to the edge, taking out every peaceful idea and replacing it with hate.., total resentment and violence....

Henry knew this.., knew it wasn't the Susan he wished for that was standing so close to Samuel but someone else..., the one he has always hated, he stepped forward to Arrow any form of violence but quickly realise how late he was when Susan raise her right hand..., what followed was a hot loud slap that could freeze the Pacific to Samuel's face....

The force of the slap sent red fingerprint on Samuel's face..., for a while Samuel was still as the slap freeze everyone present to their very bone...., when he felt the hotness of it in his face the second time.., Samuel turn his furious gaze to Susan, the slap replaying over and over in his head pushing him beyond every reasonable behaviour that makes him a responsible man and finally leaving him to his monster....a dreadful terrific monster that could tear down anyone in a swing....

Their eyes dig into each other..none thinking of a retreat non surrender......a total monstrous collision...

EPISODE 28
EPISODE TITLE- All for the money







Fear is as ubiquitous as sunlight on such quiet areas, Susan knew this yet she was ready to take the risk.., better the risk than never knowing the cause of her friend's sudden insanity, she look at every corner again but other than a passing car, there was no other person in sight..., she sigh wondering if she really saw someone or just her eyes were deceiving her....

She was about walking back into the compound when the ringtone of her phone interrupted her footsteps, she stood and quickly took out her phone from the small bag she hung around her waist..., she sigh when she noticed it was henry calling...

"Hello.."She said looking at her sides again, when she saw noone, she exhale and waited for Henry to reply..

"Hey how are you..?"Henry's voice came up...

Susan hesitated a bit before she opened her mouth to talk..."Is Anita alright..?"She ask anxiously

There was silence from the other end, to Susan a person only remain silent when they want to report bad news..

"We couldn't take her out from there.."Henry said from the other end..

Susan's face washed blank with shock, like her brain cogs couldn't turn fast enough to take in the information from her ears......
"What do you mean you couldn't take her out..?"She queried immediately..

There was hesitation before Henry's voice came again..."His brother signed a document..."

"What document..?"Susan ask, her face scrunching with the sound of the new development...

"The doctor told him he needed to sign some documents so his sister could be treated.."

"What..!"Susan cut in..."Was he forced into doing it or what.., what the hell happened there...?"

There was hesitation then his voice came again.."Look he's coming okay..., we're on our way to my house.., meet us there..."

She screwed up her face knowing fully well that isn't the type of news she expected..."Fine.."She said, her voice carrying a thread of anger that could be easily detected..."I'm on my way..."

She ended the call and look inside the compound again..., she wanted to walk back in but decided she'll go back later in the day, nurse Titi Will probably be around later in the evening or night..










****************
Angry eyes were just the start for Samuel, then came the strut, the clenched hands and silent clipped words.., and with Festus leading the way to the room his hard earned money was secretly kept, he fear he'll cross some invisible lines, even as his blood drained and his heart hammered erratically he turn around to face sergeant Owen mounting them forward with the gun.., if only his eyes were a knife.., a knife to sergeant Owen ribs, the sharp edge digging deeper till every ounce of life is far from him...

"Move.."Sergeant Owen ordered

Festus drew in a deep breath, the burning hard stare from Samuel towards him was a sign of warning.., a signal to him.., he understood it but he was too scared to act on it...., and he fears Samuel's dark stare would only last only as long as it took him to think of the most brutally cutting thing he could tear him down with...

"Faster..."Sergeant Owen said pushing Samuel's head with the back of the gun....

Samuel's eyes squinted and quickly he reverted his gaze to him to glare at him again but quickly realise how stupid his anger looked when sergeant Owen slapped his head..

"I said move.."Sergeant Owen retorted..

Annoyance dawned on Samuel but he knew there was nothing he could do, sergeant Owen is holding the gun and any stupid bravery from him could mean him loosing his life and everything he has acquired.., he has to come up with a plan.., if he needs to survive from the madman behind him..he needs to be fast...







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




Success heart quickens as she lean behind the door.., her hands tremble as her head try to contemplate what her eyes just saw.., with every footsteps and command she hears from outside her room, she gets more and more terrified...

Her nails dug into her palm as she try to control her rapid breathing.., she move her back from the door with the intentions of opening the door again just the way she did earlier when she saw the sergeant pointing a gun at Samuel and Festus climbing down from the staircase heading towards the direction of her room and finally walk past it.., she knew where they were going.., the safe room, once or twice she has try to go there but the room door is computerised, not even a gun can put it down and only Samuel knows the combination to open it.., she had asked why there was such a room in the house a few days ago and she was told it's a safest place in the house to hide....

A few days ago she learnt Samuel had stashed some money in the vault in the room, whoever thinks of robbing it will just been wasting his time.., opening the door is a headache..., opening the vault is a total waste of time.., once or twice she has try to get in there but to no avail...

Fear overwhelms her body, making it drastically exhausted. However, most of all, the fear is making her calm and that is what scares her the most..., she wasn't sure if she should go out there and try to play the heroine who rescue them or find her way to the sitting room, outside and out of the house....,, everyday she has always knew such a day will come, a day where his accomplices will turn around and turn on him..., her legs twiched and her heart pounded as she hesitantly took each step, slowly she open the door only to peep through the little space she created between the door and the wall, from her room ,she saw them, the one with the gun and the two scared boys standing in front of the computerised door..., her eyes widened with fear when sergeant raise his gun to Samuel's head...












****************
"Open it.."Sergeant Owen ordered holding the gun to Samuel's head..

Samuel's head throb in fear as the gun press the corner of his head closely, then all of a sudden, he held his breathe, daring not to make a sound. Each second seemed to last an eternity as he stood perfectly without flinching listening to the heartbeats of the intruder.., right there it occured to him, Sergeant Owen won't kill him not until he get the money he came for and the only thing standing between him and the money is him.., he has the code.., the code to the door, the vault and the combination to the safe......., right there he revert his gaze to Festus.., Festus knew what he was doing from the start.., the door was their last resort.. the final bus stop..., the place scores will be settled......

"How do i know you won't kill us if i open this door...?"Samuel ask looking Sergeant Owen way...

"That's my decision to take.."Sergeant Owen retorted, his voice carrying the level of how impatience he's becoming...

"And i guess your decision is to kill us.."Said Samuel keeping his fear checked....

Frown lines encroached on Sergeant Owen's face.., he stare at Samuel for a while then he remembered the nudes pictures and it made his anger sparked...

"Open the damn door.."Sergeant Owen hollered positioning the gun in Samuel's forehead...

"You're not going to kill me.."Samuel said back immediately..."Only I know the combination to open the door, if you kill me, you don't get a dine.., so I suggest you remove that thing from my head.."

Sergeant Owen curl his lips, then he dropped the gun swallowing down his frustration...."You're right.."He said, voice low yet clipped with rage.."I can't kill you but I can kill him.."He added taking the gun to Festus head..

Festus heart lurched almost immediately as once again he's been faced with the terror of suppressing the urge to vomit from fear of been faced with a gun....

"So what is it going to be Samuel..?"Sergeant Owen ask, a taunting smirk creeping into his lips.."Are you willing to lose your friend over the money or you're going to be a man about this and open the door, give me my money and we can all walk unharmed...."

"Unharmed..."Samuel reiterates..

"If I'm in a good mood.."Said Sergeant Owen, his fingers slowly circling the trigger..."Don't play smart with me Samuel..., I'll pull this trigger and scattered his little brain right here right now.."

Terror thundered on Festus as Sergeant Owen fully circled his fingers on the trigger, , festus tried to talk but what came was engulfed in silent stutters as terror sealed his throat stopping him from mouthing any word out...

"Fine..."Samuel blare out at the last moment....., he took a deep breathe to calm his panic before he continued...."I'll open the door..."

"Open it then.."Sergeant Owen said still etching the gun to Festus head...

Samuel glare at him, his edge of irritation returning with a gravity that burns beyond his need to save his friend...., he turn to face the door and input some numbers.., a red light at the top of the door beep, Samuel glance Sergeant Owen way who motioned him to go in...., with a cringe Samuel turn down the door knob and the door sprang open....

Sergeant Owen eyes widened as he peered inside.., the vault was no different from any bank vault, on the far end of it was a safe, a safe Samuel could have probably hidden all the money and the only thing stopping him from reaching the safe was the electrified safe locks shoning its electrical red light from the ceiling.....

"Deactivate the electrical locks.."Sergeant Owen said still holding the gun to Festus head.....

"Let my friend go first.."Samuel said back holding back the urge to rush at him and punch him in the face..

"Do not mess with me Samuel.."Sergeant Owen hollered.."Deactivate the damn thing or I swear to God I'll blow his brains out..."

Dread twisted in Festus gut as sergeant Owen preesed the gun to his head, when he look at his corner and caught a glance of the expression in his face, he realise he wasn't joking...

Samuel frown and quickly turn towards the input code system mounted on the wall.., he input some few numbers and the electrical locks deactivated....

"Move..."Sergeant Owen hollered pushing Festus into the room.., he set his eyes on the safe before he reverts them back to Samuel....."The safe box.., open it.."

"Or what...?"Samuel ask, his gaze moving from Festus who was creeping to the edge of the wall to sergeant Owen..."You'll kill my friend..?"

Sergeant Owen face scrunched, a vortex of anger swirled inside him and he turn the gun towards Festus direction and pulled the trigger..., the bullet hitting the wall a few inch from where Festus was sitting...

Festus froze, adrenaline flolding every part of him.., he turned his head but too slowly to be normal to see where the bullet had hit...

"Do you think I'm joking..?"Sergeant Owen queried angrily...

Amidst fear and anger Samuel glare at him, then he turn towards the safe box only to turn back and face sergeant Owen side again but it wasn't him he was looking this time but the person behind him.., he swallowed forcefully knowing fully well she'll be putting herself in danger if caught.., he needed to buy her time and buy them time as well..

"If i open it.."Samuel said looking behind Sergeant Owen but he quickly took out his gaze not to arouse suspicion..."If i open it, do you promise not to kill us..?"

Frightened down to the deepest part of her soul, Success took another step with the glass jug in her hand, blood froze in her vein reminding her of the terror in front of her and what he'll do to her if caught.., she took another step just close enough to hit his him from behind with the glass jug.., and just when he was about to talk..., she hold her breathe, sealed out every logical thinking and fiercely hit the glass jug in his head..

Sergeant Owen staggered as the back of his head collided with the glass.., the strong impact broke the glass into pieces sending sergeant Owen to the ground.., Samuel seize the opportunity and quickly carried the gun that fell from sergeant's Owen hand..

"Oh my God I killed him.."Success blare out shivering..

With the gun in Samuel's hand, he touch Sergeant Owen, he felt a pulse, right there it occured to him, he's not dead yet..









***************
With a buzzing in Sergeant Owen's head, he opened his eyes, his sight still in the clutches of the sleep, he hesitantly blink, Only now his brain is as a flat battery, the exertions of few minutes earlier being a marathon of erratic killings and a need to take his money., then his lids that were drooping and leaden with sleep snap open as violently as if he been woken by the raid sirens wailing..., his eyes sparked with anger when he saw Samuel, Festus and Success sitting just opposite him.., the events that happened earlier began to replay in his head, it annoyed him and he tried to move, to pounce on Samuel but he quickly realise he's been tied to a chair.....

"Samuel.."He yelled, his voice loud and thunderous...

"Welcome back..."Samuel said standing up to meet him.., then he pick the gun up and flaunt it in his face...a quick warning that he's the one in charge now...

Sergeant Owen glare at him, rage pounding in him like a drumbeat...."I swear to God I'll kill you.."He chided.

"Oh yeah.."Samuel replied, a smirk following the tone of his words.."You've been saying that ever since you got here.."

Festus stood up.., anger coiled deep in his stomach as he remenbered how scared he was when he was been faced with the gun.., angrily he walked towards sergeant Owen.., his fist clenched, the corners of his mouth hardened, he glare at sergeant Owen for a while ùntil his rage took over him..quickly he slammed his fierce fist across Sergeant Owen's face..

Blood pooped from sergeant Owen's mouth as Festus fist came in contact with his face....

Festus shook his hand to relieve himself the pain of punching him hard...

Sergeant Owen spat out blood, Samuel expected a yell from him but instead an annoying laughter evaporated from his mouth...

"You punch like a pussy.."Sergeant Owen said and spat out blood again...

Flames of anger licked through Festus as the words sank into his head, pushed beyond his boiling point, he pounce on Sergeant Owen again and sent blows upon blows to his face until his hand weakened...

The excessive blows sent sergeant Owen to the floor, the chair falling with him...

"Bastard.."Festus yelled angrily holding his blood soaked fist...

Blood dropping from sergeant Owen's face, he tried to stand up but quickly realise how futile it was when he fell back down..., he groaned and manage to raise himself and the chair.., then he raise his bloodied furious gaze to Festus and then to Samuel.., all of a sudden, as if another strength entered his body, he rushed at Samuel almost getting hold of him but he was a minute too late.., Samuel mistakenly and fearfully pulled the trigger, the bullet hit him in a close range stopping him in his track..., shocked, he glanced up to face Samuel...then he groaned trying one more time to get to him.

Struck between disbelief and fear, Samuel pulled the trigger again..., then again and again, resentment blossomed within him brimming with hostility, he continue shooting him till he ran out of bullets.......

Blood poured like water from Sergeant Owen's mouth, just then he dropped to his knees and manage to raise his gaze to Samuel before he fell flat on his face..., he struggled for a while before the pains and bullet holes dragged him into the cold hands of death.....

Realising what just happened, the gun fell from Samuel's hand, his legs weaken and quickly he crunched down to the ground and stare widely at the pool of blood flowing freely on the tiles...

"What have we done..?"Success ask shivering









*****************
Nurse Titi grimaced as she tried to free her hands from the ropes but all to no avail.., tears dripped down from her eyes as old memories began to flood her head....,she looked round the room, if only her mouth wasn't gagged, she would have screamed for help...her greed pushed to her to this day.., for the money, she has done so many despicable things and if death is her reward for the life she chose, she's ready to accept it...the preachers are right...., money is the root of all evil and vanity upon vanity.....ALL IS VANITY...

EPISODE 27
EPISODE TITLE- A sergeant's turn









As Matthew raise his arm to sign, his watch cascaded down further down his arm almost interfering with the pen, once again he glance over at Henry's face, he was still smouldering under that looks that conveys he isn't comfortable with him signing his sister over to the Doctor, but deep down, an intincts tells him he's doing the right thing, he has learnt something over the years, no matter what people say he should always follow his heart..

With positive thoughts running through his head like children running about in the house, he read few contents of the paper in front of him before his gaze moved to the signatory column, he sigh as contradictory thoughts began to flood his head., then Anita's thought been mad began to find way to his head like wild fire, he can stand anything but definitely not the thoughts of his sister been mad, Something flashed beneath the surface of his hardened expression and he hurried to investigate the sudden shift. It was too late, the emotion disappeared before he could identify it, like reaching desperately for an escaped balloon, the string dangling so tantalizingly close but the thoughts of Anita pushed it away and it's lost forever...., he hesitated no more before he sign every signatory space in the Paper and push it back to Charana's side....

Charana pick up the paper with a face of utter nonchalance as if she was merely waiting for him to sign the documents, then she glance Henry's way and caught his watchful eyes peering at her, his facial expression was one of absolute disdain, he abhorred her, she knows that for a fact....

"Believe me when i say this.."Charana said moving her unblinking eyes from Henry to Matthew..."Your sister will be giving the best treatment as she deserves..."

Matthew slightly wipe his eyes with his palm, the days knowing Anita is mad  would either pass as a blip in the course of his life, or they would be the final trauma that breaks him.....

"Can i trust you to do that..?"Matthew ask..

A smile almost surround Charana's lips but she held it back.., his sister is his weakness and that she has understood to be his breaking point.., she adores the love the brother have for her, she wished she was loved like that while growing up, her case was different, been the black sheep of the family comes with it's ugly consequences.., she guess her bad decisions in life is probably one of them....

"Yes.."She replied, her voice rumbling low than she anticipated...."Very soon, your sister will be up and kicking..."

"Thank you.."Matthew replied

Charana felt pity for him, if only his sister hasn't gotten involved with the wrong crowd..."I'll keep you updated of any new changes in her attitude.."Charana said standing up to keep the documents in a safe...

"Don't stress yourself.."Henry chime in..."I'll be coming here everyday to check on her.."

"That's totally fine with me.."Charana replied....

Matthew and Henry exchange glances before Matthew shift his gaze to Charana again but just when he was about talking, a loud clattering sound came from another part of the hospital..

"Well gentlemen..."Charana added cutting into Matthew thoughts.."Work calls again.."

"Can i see my sister again..?"Matthew ask..

"Not today.."Charana replied..."As you saw yourself, she isn't herself.., i don't want her hurting you or anyone else.."

"So what are you going to do to calm her down..?"

"We'll restraint her....."Charana said.."We have our means.., you can come back tomorrow or next to see her..."

"Alright.."Matthew said standing up from the chair....

"Your sister will be fine...."Charana assured..

Matthew nodded, glance Henry's way and stepped outside, Henry looked at Charana for a while before he followed Matthew outside....

Charana watch from the door post as Matthew and Henry take a walk out, when they disappeared out of sight, she turned only to hit her head on Andrew's....

"Jesus.."Charana grimaced holding her forehead..."Where did you come from..?"

"Your office toilet...."Andrew said..."I heard everything..."

"Then you must know he signed.."Charana said walking back in to sit back on her chair..

"That's good news.."

"For now yes..., but I have a feeling her friends will be a problem.., a serious problem.."

"What are you suggesting..?"Andrew ask folding his arms across his chest..

Charana scoffs.."Nothing.., but if they try to mess this deal up for us.., I'll make them disappear..."

A smile surrounds Andrew's lips before he pull out a chair to sit...."What you did was brilliant...."

"What did I do..?"Charana ask cupping back her pen..

"The knife in Anita's room.., You knew she'll pick it up..."

"And I'm glad it worked..., we owe littlefinger our thanks.., if he hasn't Informed us they were coming with her brother.., non of these would have been possible.."

"So what are your plans towards Anita...?"

"Oh.., that poor little thing.., too bad she's going to be insane for the rest of her life...till death do her part.."









*****************
Samuel turn to face the gun, his breath gets caught in his chest, then he knew the fear is gaining on him, he breathe shallowly and find a way to release the tension. The more apprehensive he get, the more he got cramped by the horror before him....

"You really think you can mess with me..?"Sergeant Owen ask, his words and tone making Samuel and Festus spines shivered....."I warned you what will be the consequences if you ever try to double cross me.."

Adrenaline floods Samuel's system, It pumps and beats like it’s trying to escape, he thought his heart will explode as his eyes ran wide with fear....., but he knew he has to talk, to say something to save himself from the madman in front of him.., how could be so stupid not to know the danger that will come with his actions....

"What were you thinking..?"Sergeant Owen scowled.."That I'll shivered and backout from the deal just because you sent me a pix of my nudes..."

"If it's the money you want, I'll give it to you.."Samuel manage to say amidst pants breathe and fear...

Sergeant Owen gritted, pace a while and finally stand to face them again ....."I no longer want the one million naira..., i want fifty..."

"Fifty.."Samuel reiterated shocked..."I don't have that kind of money..."

Sergeant Owen scoffs, he rub the muzzle of the gun with his finger before walking over the bed to sit....."You think I care if you have the money or not.."

"I'm not lying.. "Samuel blare out..."I don't have it..."

"Well that's bad because that's what I want.. "Sergeant Owen said, he sigh, turn his eyes to the death girl and the pool her blood was forming on the ground before he turn back to face Samuel again..., after a second of stare.., he pointed the gun at him again..

Samuel's and Festus heart hammered as they flinched, slowly taking few steps backwards......

"Give him what he wants.."Festus mutters with shaking mouth..

"Aha...."Sergeant Owen cut in dropping the gun..."Listen to your friend Samuel.., i hate to scatter your brains right here in your bed.."

"I'm not lying, I do not..

A shot to the flower vase just beside Samuel silent Samuel, the crinkling sound of the vase when it broke and scattered on the ground made both boys heart raised to a stop.., their hands trembled, Samuel felt sweat tickled down his skin, the throbbing of his own eyes, the loud creak of the broken vase still vibrating in his ears...

"I want fifty million and that's it.."Sergeant Owen retorted...

Samuel's fingers curled into a fist,, his nails digging into his palm, he couldn't hear his rapid breathing, but can feel the oxygen flooding in and out of his lungs. Hesitantly, his eyes look at the dead corpse before him., the girl Sergeant Owen had killed, Fear tortures his guts, churning his stomach in tense cramps, engulfing his conscience, knocking all other thoughts aside.....

"Fine.."Samuel manage to say with great anger licking through him...."Twenty fivs million.., that's all I have, I swear.."

"I don't believe you.."Sergeant Owen replied

"He's telling the truth.. "Festus interjects, the pounding of his heart beating into his voice...

"Fine..."Serģeant Owen said with a bit of skepticism...."Let's say I agree with you.., Where's the money...?"

"It's in the bank..."Samuel said immediately

Sergeant Owen face retreated into frown.."You think I'm a fool.."

"The money is in the bank.., i can write you a cheque.. "Samuel said putting his fear in control....

Sergeant Owen chulkle and just when he was about to talk, Samuel's ringing tone went up like buzzed rattle snake.., Sergeant Owen pick up the phone from the bed and look at the caller before he raise his gaze to Face them...

"Mr Smith is calling you.."Sergeant Owen said.., then he dropped the phone on the ground and smashed it with his shoe cascading the phone screen into fragments...

Samuel clenched his fist again hesitantly as anger surged through every part of him...., his legs twiched a moment as Sergeant Owen began to walk towards them..., heart renting, he watch as Sergeant Owen dragged Festus from behind him..

Festus throat closed in threat of screaming loudly as once again, his head came in contact with the gun...

"I'm going to ask one last time.."Sergeant Owen said holding the gun to Festus head...."Where is the money..?"

Samuel crunched his teeth over his lip harder than he ever had. Salty blood filled his mouth but he didn't say a word, instead he watch with anger as Sergeant Owen slowly round his finger around the trigger...

"It's right here in the house..."Festus blare out saving himself from the menacing aura threatening to rip his heart out...

"What did you say?"Sergeant Owen ask leaning his mouth close to Festus ears..

Festus heart throb in fear as he raise his gaze fo face Samuel.., then he try to breathe realising that was the only logical call to make....

"The money.."He said trying to form the words.."The money is right here in the house...."

"Now, that wasn't so hard, was it...?"Sergeant ask, his voice low yet taunting...."Now you're going to take me to where the money is.., move, the two of you..."









***************
Susan look at the address she had once written down just to be sure she's in the right place..., upon affirmation, she open the almost transparent gate and walked into the compound..., she stood noticing it's only two houses in the compound, one of the houses looked totally desolate like noone was living there, while the other proved neat, the front was well cleared.., she sigh and decided to walk towards the direction of the clean one.., she got to ths threshold, the window was open, she peep inside, luckily for her she saw a picture, she recognised nurse Titi..., heaving a sigh, she trot towards the door and knock without any form of hesitation...

"Nurse Titi..."Susan shouted when no reply came neither did anyone answer the door..

She knocked again, this time more louder than the first, just when she was about moving towards the window, she saw something, a shadow lurking behind her, she quickly turn only to see the behind of someone running towards the gate..

"Hey wait.."Susan shouted running after the person.., she got outside look around but there was no one in sight....., she walk back to the compound and walk right out.., just then different thoughts began to run in her head....could someone be following her....?
