EPISODE 24

 

Kingsley get out of the car and started walking towards the entrance of the restaurant, several things are involved and his fears just rise. He knew some K’s member are around and must have seen Jane entering the restaurant, he had sighted one of them watching the big restaurant afar when he earlier called Jane and it shows to him a big tragedy.

 

He ran as fast as his legs could take him sighting two of them making a call and a sniper at the top of a big building, he stopped when he made eye contact with one of the brothers making call. He could recognize them as one of G.B loyal dogs and could understand the message they had just passed across, Don had equally asked him about Jane before and he claimed he didn’t know her but only helped when she demanded for his assistance, her presence with the agent must have change the entire claim. He knew G.B had finally succeed in taming him an enemy and no point of discussion could change that cos he knew Don would never listen. This had all happened out of his carelessness and out of the intense feeling called Love, he however have no regret Love found him, he had been raised under cruel fate and he knows the worst is about to come.

 

Suddenly two of the brothers randomly sh00t at his direction, he ran for as long as he could, taking cover, the brothers spreads into different positions, they knew Kingsley is a fast shooter who doesn’t miss target but they never allow him have his way into the restaurant. Kingsley glance at the sniper on top of the big building, he had to get inside the restaurant before things get more uglier.

 

The security guard with the agent and few people inside the restaurant became alarmed the moment the gunshot sound, the security guard at the entrance got shot on his head before he could run inside, there were screaming inside the restaurant and from pedestrians and motorist who leave their cars behind while running for their life’s. Within minutes, the whole place had scattered and different gunshot fill the air.

 

The agent brought out his gun and phone, wondering what was happening, he dial the office line for backup, thinking the restaurant was under robbery attack or some gangster are fighting without knowing there was a dim red light already pointed on him.

He was still on the call when the second security guard shouted out to him, “hey look out” the guard shouted, running out to him. But he ignored, thinking he was telling him to lay down like he had told the other screaming people inside the restaurant.

Luckily the guard was able to reach out to him while the heavy bullets missed him slightly, hitting the back bar.

“Holy sh*t” !! He could have just died instantly if the guard hadn’t reach out to him. “Target missed” the sniper said into the mouth piece placed at his left collar but continue the shooting.

Kingsley glance at the sniper again, he couldn’t have clear view of the restaurant anymore due to the cover he had taken from the bullets. He knew everything is happening too fast, the brothers will soon be there and he knows how dangerous that could be, he need to act fast and make sure Jane is safe but also considering a wrong move could get himself killed.

 

 

He studied the position of the two brothers and the angle their bullets is coming from, he could have just shot them down straight if not for the position he was which was to his disadvantage…….. suddenly their shots were directed towards the entrance, another gunman was trying to enter the restaurant while he sh00t back at them. Kingsley looked around carefully, he knew the brothers were trying to delay the time till their backup arrives, though police sirens are already sounding few distance away from the restaurant, he hissed, most of them will die on any attempt to come near. He had to quickly find a way, he looked around again, the brothers shooting are now diverted, he wonder who the gunman was, all thanks to him he was able to move carefully away.

The agent shouted on top of his voice describing the address of the restaurant to the backup team, the sniper hadn’t stop shooting likewise, he seem to have taken control inside the restaurant, everybody laid low, nobody dare stands or is dead at the slight sight. He could see his gun few meters away from where it had dropped from him when he fell, going to get the gun could cost him his life, he thought of what to do few more seconds before getting an idea.

“sh*t !! I’ve missed him” one of the brothers shouted into the mouth piece placed at his collar, “cover me, I’m going inside”

“No No, we have to wait for backup,don’t go in yet” the second brother shouted.

Kingsley found his way in through one of the windows he had destroyed to enter, he met some women who were visibly shaking at the sight of the gun with him, he ignore them and proceed towards the female restroom. He shot the lock when the door didn’t give way only to found trembling Jane with two other women inside, they were probably scared due to the shot. He stared at her for few seconds before Jane asked him what was happening,

“lets get out of here first” he answered without looking at her, he took two steps towards the destroyed door while Jane followed him instantly.

 

The brother who entered the restaurant had calculated wrongly, Gabriel had got halfway towards the other entrance Jane earlier passed without the sniper notice. He attack him before he could do anything, he had not seen the agent attack quickly and he fell backwards before the sniper bullet hit him mistakenly.
Soon the DSS backup team arrives and strategize themselves at strategic angles.

‘stop right there, both of you” Kingsley heard the broad voice behind and stopped while Jane panicked beside him, the gunman appeared behind , pointing a gun at him..

“let her go right now and drop your weapon”

Kingsley move a bit back and gently drop his gun, he hadn’t expect anyone to appear from that angle and had taken him by surprise.

“Turned back slowly now, both of you, don’t try anything funny” he ordered while they obeyed.

He motioned Jane to come closer, he could sense her fears and how terrible she looked.

 

“I’m here to rescue you miss Jane, don’t worry you are safe now” He said and motioned her to come closer.

 

She looked stunned and more scared, “who are you?” She managed to ask instead.

“I’m assigned by your father to protect you and make sure you are safe, I am here to get you out of here” he replied without taking his eyes off Kingsley.

News went viral all over the country that some terrorist gang attacked a restaurant known for its quality in local and foreign meals in Lagos. There were rumors that the restaurant were robbed and 30 people died, some said some gang were fighting against its rivalry gang while some proclaimed its one of their usual doings in an attempt to succumb the government in doing what they want forcefully.

 

The commissioner for Lagos State Police came out of the police Headquarters with some of his escort, he knew journalist and different media organization must have grouped themselves out in an attempt to throw him different questions about the incident yesterday, he heaved a sigh before proceeding out….
To his predictions, within seconds, he was meet with different flashes, cameras and journalist.

 

“What was the cause of the incident yesterday sir” one of the reporters asked immediately, “ I want you to know the police are doing their job adherently to figure that out, it was reported according to eye witness that the gunshot began suddenly but I can assure you that we are working on it, we are working on the CCTV cameras too and details will be released out soon” the commissioner replied.

“Is it true this is one of the doings from the known terrorist gang called K’s and that 30 victims died ?” Another reporter asked.

“It is very sad to say some gang operates in our economy by killing people and desrupting properties worth millions, I’m sad to hear terrorist roam around our vicinity and are this very much active despite the effort to bring them down, as you’ve known, its said the gang operate in other countries internationally and all effort to bring them to justice seems futile, like what happened some times ago when their hideout was discovered by the police, I can assure you the police are planning the best method to get this criminals, a meeting has been called with some of the affected countries to finalize the best method to get to the root and make sure they are annihilated completely. There are several rumors that 30 people died, that is untrue, 6 people had died and 2 others badly injured but are receiving treatment”. The commissioner replied again.

 

“Sir, concerning the turmoil happening in the country presently and with due time to the general presidential election, do you think the election will hold and the people are secured to come out and vote?” Another reporter asked again.

 

“By God’s grace, nothing is changing the schedule of the election, I want to tell our people to come out buoyantly to vote for the candidate of their choice, all security forces of the country are going as far beyond expectations to make sure there is absolute security all over election polls and a CCTV cameras will be placed to monitor everywhere all over the country to ensure a free and fair election.

“Thanks, now will you excuse me’ the commissioner said while the men behind him move forward to clear the road admit the heavy crowd while they followed in an attempt to ask more questions but the man entered the vehicle with three other escorts and zoomed off .

 

“How about the arrangement I ask you to make?” The commissioner turned to ask one of the men .

“I’ve make necessary steps, a meeting has been scheduled for you both on Friday sir, the guard replied.

Senator Elvis residence

Senator Elvis laughed wickedly, he took off his eye glass gently beside the chair he sat on and stared at Don. They were four in the room, the senator sat beside chief Garub who looked troubled while Don and the minister for health, Nosol Adams sat together opposite them.

Don ordered immediate withdrawal for backup when he got an information that the DSS men are also on their way, not that he was scared of them but he doesn’t want to risk any mistake that could loom the hood and at a point lose any man. He felt pain and anger towards Kingsley, “betrayer beggot curse” he promise to give him something worth more than death.

 

“It seems William Davis is trying to play with fire, the fire that will end him, is he playing pranks on us ? What is happening?” Nosol Adams asked, directing the question to no one in particular.

Senator Elvis gave a wicked chuckle again, this time his voice was audible enough the whole room, they knew laughing like that shows how angry he is,

“you are right Nosol, William and Donald are playing with fire, I already get them having a closed meeting with Anambra state Governor and some opposition party members secretly which I never believed at first until I saw the clear evidence.

 

“Don”, he call out to him, “I want to teach William some lesson, I want you to kidnap his daughter along side Roland son, I’ll make sure to end his career if he persist not to back out against chief Garub’s son”.

“By the way what is wrong with the big headed man?” Nosol Adams asked, interrupting the senator,

“I wonder how he had work his way into this government, he’s just unlike his brother who understand how things work in this government”

“why don’t we just take him instead ? There’s an information that he reside at Ibadan and has private residence at Plateu State” worried Chief Garub added.

“No we can’t do that, the best way is to get him through his son, your son was foolish to have get himself into trouble, you should all take care of your private lives and families yourself”

“this could have been easy if it hadn’t involve the lawyer, he wouldn’t stop shouting it out to the world”

 

“who rule this country and its people? who owns this country? whatever we say is pronounced Law” senator Elvis interrupted and turned back to Don, “make sure there’s no mistake this time, finish it quickly and make sure they are handled by you this time around”.

The two men drop down from the gigantic car that had just alighted inside the big compound heavily surrounded by guards. They both walk towards the main entrance of the mansion and proceed inside.

The whole building had been surrounded by guards since Jane was rescued and was retained inside the mansion. Mr. William spoke before Jane could utter anything,

“prepare to fly out of this country and no objection from you this time Jane”

“your father is right Jane, you don’t have to say anything” Mr. Donald said before walking to sit on one of the chairs. “your flight have been booked, you’ll have to get out of this country till this election is over” Mr Donald added.
