Episode 1

Blinding lightening flashed in the sky,followed by deafing thunder;it was raining heavily. The nurses run around,closing windows of wards to prevent rain from getting to patients. The door burst open and a tall,slender man came in. He was soaked in rain and had his hands over his stomach. Water,mixed with blood was dripping from his clothe. He starrgered in then collapsed after taking few steps. Three nurses rushed towards him and lifted him onto the stretcher near the entranced and wheeled him into the emergency room. They unbuttoned his shirt hurriedly and used a scissors to tear his singlet.The nurses looked at eachother confusingly when they saw it was a gun wound.They don't treat patient with gun wound without a police report and here they are with a dying man.They glanced at the man who was slowly loosing his consciousness.
"Go and call the doctor."The most elderly among the nurses commanded to one of the two nurses
The nurse dashed out immediately.The nurse pressed the wound with the torn singlet to stop blood flow.The door opened and the nurse and doctor came in.The nurse removed the singlet from the wound to reveal the wound.The doctor looked at the wound then at the nurse who nodded at him.He sighed and ordered the nurse that went to call him to bring the medical kit and they started the word of saving the man.After about thirty minutes,the bullet was removed and the wound was stitched.He was taken into a ward and put on drip.
The rained has subsided and it was only drizzling.The door opened and three hefty men came in.They wore black raincoats and black glasses over their eyes;the mere sight of them could make one tremble in fear.They asked around where the doctor's office was and were directed.They barged into the office and banged the door behind them making the doctor stop what he was doing and looked up at them.
"Escuse me,who are you and what..."He stopped talking when he saw the gun which was pointed directly at his forehead;he raised his hands up.
"You were saying something."The man that pointed the gun at him said with a husky voice.
"No,I wasn't saying anything."He said fearfully.
"We are looking for a man with gun wound,he is tall and slender."The man in the middle inquired with a frown.The doctor looked at the men and gulped hard.
"You have seen him."The third man uttered softly."We won't hard you if you cooperate."
"Yes,he is in one of the wards."
"Take us to him,and... Don't try anything stupid or I will make a hole in your big head with my gun."The man with the gun uttered looking at the pistol in his hand.
"I won't dare."
The doctor walked hurriedly out of the office towards the direction of the ward.He opened the door and to his surpised,the ward was empty and the window was widely opened. He rushed into the bathroom combined with toilet but the man was no where to be found.The doctor turned and looked at the stern looking men fearfully.
"I...I... Please don't kill me,he was here I swear...I wouldn't have helped him if I... Please don't shoot me." He stammered sweating despite the cold weather.
"We won't shoot or kill you but we will definately leave you with something to remember us with."The man with the gun said and moved towards him,he stared at him for awhile then hit him with the butt of the pistol.

Episode 2

TWO MONTHS AGO.

The alarm clock sitting on top of the drawer buzzed again for the third time.He slowly opened his eyes and stretched his hand towards the clock and pressed a button,stopping it.He sluggishly crept out of bed and shuffled to the bathroom.He on the light and took the toothbrush,laced it with a little toothpaste then put it under the tap,opened the tap,allowed water to sprinkle on it then closed the tap. He finished washing his mouth then returned the toothbrush back to it place.He removed his brief and tossed it away towards a bin and stepped into the bathtub.
He came out of the bathroom minutes later with a towel wrapped around his waist.He walked to the wardrope and opened it,brought out a pair of black jeans,a navy blue polo shirt,a white singlet and black brief.He dropped them on the bed then shuffled to a showcase and took out a belt,sneakers and a leather writstwatch.He dropped them on the bed then went and sat infront of the dressing mirrior.He applied lotion on his body,massaged his head with a perfumed hair cream then proceed to the bed to get dressed.
He came out of the bedroom and entered the kitchen.He saw Jasmine,his girlfriend preparing breakfast.It was then that he remembered that they came back home from the club together the previous night;silly him,he said in his mind smiling mischieviously.He stopmed to the coffee machine and poured the steaming liquid into the mug then added three cubes of sugar and a little amount of milk.
"Good morning sweetheart."Jasmine said flipping the egg she was frying.
"Morning babe.How was your night?"He asked stirring the content of the mug.
"I slept like a baby.Breakfast is almost ready."She uttered. Looking towards him with a hand on her waist.
"I am sorry,I won't be having breakfast at home;I have an important work to do."He said and sipped from the mug.
"But today is saturday!"She protested.
"Yes,it is not an office work;a gut contacted me about a bug in his cafe and I promised to fix it today."
"Ok."She shrugged.
"Hope you're not angry?"
"No,I am not."
"Thanks."
He dropped the mug in the sink and walked to where she was,bent forward and kissed her on the lips passionately.She spank him in the butt as he walks aways.He scoffed and shook his head without turning to look at her.He went to the dining room,took his laptop bag from the table,took his car key from the centre table in the well furnished sitting room then walked out to the carport,entered the car and drove out.
At twenty seven,Hillary Osagie has achieved so much in life.He had graduated from Oxford University four years ago with a first class in Computer engineering.He did his masters immediately before returning to Nigeria for the one year mandatory national service.Finding work wasn't a problem as his mother his well connected;he got a job at a company which deals with the packaging,repair and debugging of computers.Within the seven months of working with the company,he has gotten recognition among firms and government organizations.
There was gridlock on the roads;Saturdays in the capital of Nigeria is busier than Mondays.It is the day families go for outing and people go to the cinema to watch movies.He turned on the music and started nodding to the tune.He arrived at the cafe late and started working almost immediately.It took him three hours before finishing the work.He went to a nearby restaurant to eat before heading home.
He parked his car outside the beer garden and came out;Saturday is a day he spend with his friends.They started shouting his name and hailing him as he swaggered towards them.People around turn to look at him then at the boys.He shook hand with them and sat down then called on a curvy waitress and placed his order;bottles of beer and plates of catfish pepper soup for himself and his friends.
"Guy stop looking at the waitress jor."Robert fired at Hillary.
"Am I not allowed to look again?"He asked raising his eyebrowns.
"You have a girlfriend abeg,let us the association of "babeless" guys do the looking."Jamil said smiling.
"Mark have two babes,Robert have like five I know and yours is countless,so allow me to feed my eyes."Hillary uttered defensively.
"Guy haba!Why the casting nah?Can't a single guy enjoy himself before marriage again?"Mark said raising his hands up.They burst out laugh.
"But seriously you guys are baaad."Hillary said giggling.
"And you're not bad abi?Don't worry,I will hack your Facebook and Instagram,screenshot all the DMs between you and all the sexy bad girls than send it to Jasmine."Jamil said demostrating with his hand.
"I will kill you if you dare do that."Hillary uttered holding Jamil's neck.They burst into a loud laughter.
The order came and they started gulping down the beer and eating the catfish pepper soup at the same time teasing eachother.They ordered more beer until evening before they left for their various houses.

still i follow.

Episode 3

Monday came fast,he arrived at the office early as usual and did some little work then plugged the earphone in the phone port and put it in his ear.He relaxed back on the brown leather chair and crossed his legs,with hands behind his head.He closed his eyes as he enjoys the music.The music stopped and a call came through.He opened his eyes, took the phone from the desk and glanced at the screen;it was his boss calling.He quickly removed the earphone,swiped and answered the call.
"Good morning sir."He greeted,sitting properly.
"Good morning Hillary,how are you doing?"A thick male voice asked from the other end.
"I am fine sir."He replied adjusting the tie.
"That's ok,come to my office when you're less busy."The voice said and coughed lightly.
"I am not doing anything right now sir,can I come?"
"Sure."
"Ok sir." He said and ended the call.
He dropped the phone on the desk and stood up,entered the toilet and peed,came out,took his sunshade from the desk, wore it and went out of the office.He stomped to his boss's office,knocked at the door lightly, waited for some seconds then pushed the door open and entered.A dark,stout man was sitting infront of a large brown italian desk making call.He gestured on him to take a seat as he continued with his call.The call lasted for almost twenty minutes;the man dropped the phone on the desk and smiled at him.
"How was your weekend?"
"It went well sir."
"That's good.I was called by the minister of defense last night that they have problem with some of the systems in their database and the engineers there were unable to fix the problem,I want you to go over there and fix the problem for them;I know you can do it."
"I will try my best sir.What will I tell them when I get there."
"Tell them you're from Fitch Technologies.That will be all."
"Ok sir."
He stood up,bowed down for his boss before leaving the office.He went back to the office and picked up his phone,laptop bag,car key and other stuff he would be needding then walked out and closed the office.He stood by the door of Jamil's office and whitsled to him.
"Where to this early mormor?"Jamil asked dropping the pen in his hand on the desk.
"The defense headquarter."He replied flicking his eyes.
"Big boy."Jamil smiled.
"For where?Are you busy?"
"Not really."
"Mind accompanying me?"
"No oo,you know I don't like see those uniform men."
"Fear fear."Hillary teased.
"I gree."Jamil said defensively then added:"Only God knows when you will come back."
"That's true,let me be going.I will call you later."
"Ok."
He closed the door and walked to the elevator,pressed the button and entered.He punched the down floor button and began humming as the elevator descend down.The door opend and he stepped out.He jogged to his car and entered then zoomed out of the premises.He arrived at the defense headquarter an hour later due to the heavy gridlock on the road and was stopped at the gate by two heavily armed military men.
"Who are you and what business do you have here?"One of the men asked with a stern look,his hand on the gun trigger in his hand.
"Good morning sirs,my name is Hillary Osagie and I am from Fitch Technologies."
"Give me a minute."The man said and walked to a booth near gate.He put the telephone on his ear and dialed a number then waited for response.He spoke to someone for some seconds then dropped the telephone and came out."Do you have any means of identification?"
"Yes,I have my work I.d card with me sir."Hillary said and brought out a plastic I.d card from his pocket and handed it to the man.
The man looked at the I.d card then at Hillary.He looked at the other military man and nodded.He handed him back the I.d card as the other man press a button.The gate opened and he drove in.He parked his car in the parking lot and came out.He looked around,admiring the beautiful designs and how things were going in order.The security was tight;there were men and women with arms at every corner of the headquarter.He took out his laptop bag and walked into the reception.He greeted the receptionist and told her his intention.She asked him to sit and wait as she put a call across to someone.He sat on the soft cushion and fixed his eyes at the large television hung on the wall.A man dressed in military uniform came into the reception and whispered to the receptionist.Hillary stood up immediately the lady pointed at him.
"You must be Hillary,right?"The man asked walking towards him.
"Yes,good morning."Hillary greeted.The man stretched his hand forward for a shake.Hillary quickly grabbed his hand and shook him.
"I am George."The man introduced.
"Nice meeting you."Hillary smiled.
"Same here.Let's get to work.Please follow me."The man said and began walking away,Hillary picked his bag and followed him closely behind.
They climbed the stairs to the second floor then took a left turn.The section was empty and there was only one door located at the extream end of the section.The stomped to the door and the man pressed some numbers and the door opened.He pushed the door open and entered then held it for Hillary to enter.The man switched on the blue light in the dataroom then walked to a system and turned it on.He bend forward,waiting for rhe system to finish booting.Hillary stood behind him staring at the screen with arms folded.The man stood up right and turned to face Hillary.
"We initiated a new program to help strengthen the security in the headquarters but it result into something else;we couldn't access stored information.I tried all my best but still it didn't work."
"It must be a virus."Hillary said putting his hands in the pocket.The man looked at him,raising his eyebrown.
"How sure are you it is a virus?"
"We had a similar issue last month.Hackerd tried to hack into our company database but they couldn't so they sent a virus to temper with everything."
"If you can solve the problem then go ahead."The man said stepping aside.
"It will take time to do it."Hillary said sitting down on a chair infront of the system.
"It doesn't matter as long as you will solve it."
"I can."
"I will be going,I will be coming to check on you from time to time.Do you need anything?"Hillary nodded and began work."Let me warn you,there are classified information here and it will be wise for you if you don't temper with them.Leakage of such info is treason and you know the punishment for treason."The man warned.
"I am a professional and won't do that."Hillary uttered alittle bit angry.
The man didn't utter a word,he just turned and walked out,leaving the door ajar.Hillary hissed after the man had gone and started work immediately.True to his word,it took him time before he was able to solve the problem.He was about shutting down the system when something popped on the screen.He peered at the screen and started reading it.His jaws dropped down as he read the content;it was a mail from the accountant to the minister informing him on how they intend to share seventy million dollars meant for the purchase of amunation among the top officials in the headquarters.His eyes flicked as he gulped down on an empty throat.He closed the mail and another one popped again.He was in the middle of reading it when he heard footsteps approaching.He quickly shut down the system,packed his things and stood up.He bumped into George at the door.
"Are you done already?"George asked raising his eyebrown and looking around.
"Yes."Hillary replied gripping his bag tightly.
"Why didn't you wait for me before shutting down the system?"
"This is past three;I have been sitting here since morning."
"Ok,shall we go now?"
"Sure."The man said and looked around suspiciously.
They walked out of the room with Hillary walking ahead.He hurried to his car,entered his car and drove away.He drove straight home,had a bath and called his boss to bried him.He went to the kitchen,micriwaved the spaghetti he had prepared the previous night ate and slept off on the couch.

Episode 4

They went to the canteen with Jamil to eat during their lunch break and were watching the news when the topic of corruption came up.
"Have you heard of the new programme introduced by the ministry of finiance?"Jamil asked.
"You know I don't watch the news right?"
"Well it is called the whitsle blowing,a programme aimed retriving back stolen money."
"How does it work?"
"If you know anyone who stole money from the government,all you need to do is tip the government about him or her;they even have an app.The good thing is that the whitsle blower get five percent of whatever money that is retrived and the person's identity won't be exposed to the public."
"Are you serious?"Hillary asked interestingly.
"See yeye question oo."
"So if I tip the government about a seventy million dollar being stolen by someone at the top and the money is recovered,I will get five percent of the money?"
"Yes."
"And no one will know I was the snitch?"
"Yes,wait oo,why are you asking me too much question?You seem interested.Do you know anyone that stole government money?"
"Maybe."
"Be careful guy or you get yourself into trouble."Jamil uttered and chucked.
Hillary remain quiet throughout the meal.They finished their meal and returned to their offices.He was unable to do any work for the remaining part of the day;he was deeply in thought.He brushed the thought out of his mind as he drove home.It is Nigeria and recovered money are restolen.He sat down on the sofa and on the televison.He started channel shuffling and his eyes caught one of the headlines on a news station:WHISTLE BLOWER GET TWENTY MILLION NAIRA FROM RECOVERED MONEY.His eyes bulged as he sat up properly.He took his phone and calculated five percent of seventy million dollar.

Hillary was in the office working when the door opened and his boss entered.He took his eyes away from the system and looked at his boss who stood few inches away from the door,hands in the pocket.He removed the glass on his eyed and stood up immediately.
"Good afternoon sir."He greeted.
"Hillary,it is the guys from the defense headquarter again.They are having the same problem again and I want you to go there and do your magic."
"Ok sir."He nodded.
His boos walked out of the office and shut the door.He did a victory sign with his hand and smiled happily.His plan has worked out perfectly.He sent a virus the previous night to enable him have access to the database.He will download all the files and email in the database and sent it to the government,he will be given his five percent,he will quit his job at Fitch Technologies and start his own company.
He sat on the chair and rolled round laughing happily.He stopped after sometimes,stood up,packed everything he would be needing into the laptop bag and stormed out out of the office.He speed to the headquarter in a happy mood with music booming.He saw George infront of the reception entrance arm crossed.His look could melt a stone.Hillary smiled at him as he came out of his car.
"Good afternoon Mr. George."Hillary stretched his hand forward for a hand shake.
"Morning Mr. Hillary,you're here again."George uttered as they shook hands.
"Yes."Hillary replied smiling.
"Well it seems the hackers are getting an upper hand over you."
"Hackers are always a step ahead."
"Maybe we will call a hacker next time."George said and sniffed.
"Maybe."Hillary beamed.
"There is something about you that I don't trust;I am suspecting you."George fixed his gaze on Hillary.Hillary smiled and look away then at him,trying to compose himself.
"That's your opinion.I can't deny you that right.Can we get to work,please?"Hillary uttered stressing the last word and raised hia eyebrown."I have a lot of work to do you see."
"Of course,but remember any mistake will land you in jail."
"I understand that Mr. George."
Hillary sneered staring at George.They stared at eachother for awhile then George scoffed,turned and entered the reception.Hillary closed his eyes relieved and followed him.They arrived at the dataroom and George opened the door.They entered and Hillary sat infront of the system.George stood behind him,looking at him hatefully.
Hillary raised his head and looked at him then said:"Can I get some privacy please."
George stared at him for awhile then walked out of the room.Hillary let out a sigh of relief.He turned the system on,worked on it then took out a flash from his bag and insert it in the port and started copying the data.He peered at the screen,tapping his fingers on the table.He rolled his shirt to the forearm and began biting his nails nervously.The copying was at ninety two when he began hearing footstep approaching.His heart began pulsing as the steps approches nearer.He shared his look between the system screen and the door.The copying finished just as the footstep stopped at the door.He removed the flash and throw it into the bag just as the door was opening.He turned and looked at George in horror.
"What?Why are you looking at me that way?"George asked frowning.
"Excuse me."Hillary said trying to hide the fear in his eyes.
"There is fear in your eyes,I can see it."
"Like seiously?"
George walked and bent forward over Hillary and checked the notification bar.Hillary pressed his teeth hard against eachother fearfully.George stood upright and glanced at Hillary.
"You're done?"
"You have trust issues."
"Can you go out now?"
Hillay scoffed,stood up,packed his things and walked out smiling under his breath.In a matter of time,he will become a billionnaire;life is just about to start,he said to himself.He drove out of the headquarter a happy man.He incresed the volume of the music as the wheels touched the highway;nodding to the music as he drove back to the office.

Nice one

Episode 5

He came out of the cinema to answer a call when he noticed two hefty men standing by a corner, looking at him and saying something. To eachother.He stared fixedly at them as he talked to the person at the other end.He finished the call and put the phone in his pocket.He entered the cinema but didn't returned to his seat;he his at the back,in the dark.The men entered,looking around.He allowed them to go deeper inside the cinema then he made his move.He removed the blazer he was wearing and threw it away then walked out of the cinema.He strode towards the entrance and started jogging to the parking.He brought out the carkey from his pocket and opened the door.He entered,started the engine and reversed out of the lot.He saw the men running out the cinema from the rear-view mirror as he drove out.They ran towards him but were late as he was already out.He increased the speed as he climbed the road.He noticed a black Toyota Corolla following him.He turned to a street and accelerated.He looked at the rear-view mirror and saw the car entered the street;he knew immediately he was in trouble.They started racing,with Hillary trying to runaway from them and the car chasing him closely behind.An idea popped into Hillary's head and he climbed the mainroad,he drove some kilometres then stopped abruptedly infront of a police station.The car speed pass him without stopping.He put his head on the steering and sighed;he was sweating profusely.He waited there for some hours then drove around the city for awhile before heading home.He was exhausted when he got home,he locked the doors and windows then went straight to bed to sleep without changing his cloth.
A tiny ray of light illuminatethe room.The alarm alarm buzzed and he jerked up fearfully.He used his hands to cover his face.He felt liquid on his face,rubbed the surface and quickly looked at his hand.Blood!He looked down at his body and saw himself covered in blood.He jumped out of bed and rushed to the switch.The light came on and he looked at the bed;his eyes widen as he saw the body on the bed.He ran and turned the body over;it was Jasmine.He covered his mouth with his hand and began panting.Tears rolled down his cheeks uncontrolled.He looked around and saw things scattered all over the room.He plodded to the floor and put his arm around his legs.
He stood up abruptedly and rushed to the sittingroom,switched off his phone then returned to the room.He rolled the body in the duvet and carried the body to the sittingroom.He unlocked the door,surveyed and took the body out to his car.He put the body in the boot.He went inside and locked the door.He turned the mattress upside down,cleaned the blood stain on the floor then went to the bathroom,cleaned himself up, and changed into a polo shirt and jogger pant.He walked around the house confusingly,waiting for night to come;it was the longest day on his life.
Night came after forever and he drove out of the house few minutes to ten towards the surburb of the city.He stopped by a ditch and came out.He opened the car bonnet as if he was trying to fix a problem.He looked around and made sure no one was around then ran to the boot,opened it and brought out the body and lay it on the floor near the ditch.He opened the duvet and rolled the body down the ditch as hot tears stream down from his eyes;Jasmine deserve a proper burial not this.He took th duvet and returned it to the boot,closed the bonnet and hurriedly entered the car.His phone rang as he was driving home.He swiped and answered the call then placed the phone on his ear.
"Hello."He said softly.
"Your end is here Hillary."A robotic voice said from the other end.
"Who is this?"He asked afraid.
"Someone you shouldn't have crossed path with,you made a big mistake."The voice said and the line went dead.He clawed on the steering tightly;he knew he has chewed more than enough.

Why dont I remember reading this?

Let me start.....

Who killed Jasmine?

because of 5% his life is in danger..

Episode 6

He climbed down from the tricycle and paid the driver. He adjusted the peak cap to cover his face properly. He sited Jamil leaning on an electric pole;he had called him early to meet him at their current location. He walked pass him,signally to him. Jamil allowed him walk for some distance then followed him. They entered a local restaurant,sat a seat apart and ordered for a meal.
"What is happening Hillary? You haven't been to work for awhile now and your number have been switched off. What is going on?"Jamil asked worried.
"I have bleeped up Jamil."Hillary answered disturbed.
"How?"
"Jasmine is dead."Hillary announced,turning to look at Jamil whose face was filled with horror.
"What!How did it happened?Did you..."
"No no no." He interrupted sharply,"I didn't kill her;I will never do that,but I caused her death."
"How?I am not getting you dude."
"You know the time I went to work at the defence headquarters?"
"Yes."Jamil nodded.
"I came across something;an email,between the accountant and the minister about a seventy million dollars being diverted and I... The whistle blower stuff,I... I was greedy. I wanted to get five percent of the money as a whistle blower and I did something childish and unprofessional;I sent a virus to their system in order to get access to the database. I succeeded and was able to download everything in the defence headquarters database and now they are after me,I know they won't stop until they kill me."He said scratching his head confusingly.
"What!"
"I know it was a stupid idea and now... I wish I could go back in time and undo everything,Jasmine is dead and I don't know what will happen next."
"Calm down dude,the deed has been done already,it is not time for blames and regret but to find a solution. Let's find a way out of the mess?"
"How can we fix the problem Jamil? Those guys are super dangerous."
"I know,do you still have the downloaded data with you?"
"Yes,I have the flash with me here."Hillary said and dipped his hand in his pocket,brought out the flash and dropped it on the table.
"Good,let's go to my house and talk more." Jamil said standing up.
"No that will be dangerous. I can't afford to endanger your life." Hillary said and pulled him back to his chair.
"Who said you're endangering my life?" Jamil sniffed audibly.
"They may be in here,they may be looking at us now and following you isn't the nicest idea."
"Forget about that Hillary."Jamil sneered.
"Ok,I will come to your house later in the night to reduce the risk of me being seen with you."
Jamil sighed and shrugged,"If you think that is the better way,I am cool."
"Thank you Jamil."
"Anything for you dude. I will be going now,till I see you." Jamil said,stood up,they shook hands and he left. Hillary sat for awhile then left.

Hillary made sure no one was trailing him before he called Jamil and told him he was at the gate of his house. The gate opened and Hillary went in. He removed the peak cap and turned to Jamil who was closing the gate. They went inside the house and sat in the sitting room. Jamil went into his the room and came back with his laptop,he dropped it on the table and on it. He put the flash in the laptop and started going through the content.
"Wow...there are lot of looting in here,there is no way we are returning these to those guys. I was... What is this?" Jamil asked confusingly. Hillary peered at the screen.
"These are list of major schools,banks and government organisations located around the country with dates and time. Look here...I know this school,it is a boarding school located at the city centre of Abuja,and the date...it have today's date on it..."
"Five minutes to nine."Jamil interrupted looking at the walk clock atop the hung television.
"The time here is Nine fifteen. What is happening in five minutes?"Hillary asked confused.
They sat silently,deep in thought,brain storming for ideas. Hillary raised his eyes and stared fixedly at the ticking clock,his eyes pounding.
"Oh my God." Jamil said suddenly,standing up.
"What is it?" Hillary stood confused.
"It is..."
A loud blast that shook the earth and threw them to the floor rang in the air. Hillary stood up sharply and ran out of the house followed closely by Jamil. There was flame eruption in the air. Hillary covered his trembling mouth with his hands and started panting.
"Oh my God! It is a bomb blast." Jamil uttered with bulging eyes.
"Those children... Their parent... Innocent souls." Hillary stammered.
"There is a conspiracy against the government within the government. It is more than the stolen money." Jamil murmured.
"This is getting more dangerous. Jamil, I need you to stay indoor,call everyone you know and tell them to stay indoor and alert,we are under attack."
"What about you? Where are you going?"
"I want to go somewhere,I will be back soon. Keep the flash safe,it is the only means of stopping those people."
Jamil held Hillary by the shoulder and squeezed it gently."Be careful dude." Hillary smiled and nodded.

More!

Nice Update

following closely........

Episode 7


He jogged out of the house and hopped into a taxi. Hillary couldn't hold back tears when he arrived at the scene of the blast. It was gruesome; mutilated bodies of school children were littered on the ground. Parents who heard about the attack were already there crying and searching for their wards. He walked to a corner, brought out his phone and dialled a number. He paced around worried as he waits for the call to be answered.
"Hello, this is I.G Emanuel John on the line." A voice said from the other end.
Hillary shut his eyes and inhaled deeply. "The blast that happened few minutes ago,I have information on it"
"Who is this please and how did you get my number?" The voice asked more focused than the first time.
"Does that matters now?" Hillary asked annoyed.
"How did you know about the attack?"
"The question now is how to stop the other attacks."
"I am not getting you Mr..."
"I am not giving you my name,I have something that could aid you."
"Ok,where are you now?"
"I will send you the address where you can get the info."
"Ok."
Hillary ended the call and slide the phone back into his pocket. A clap of thunder made him look up at the sky; the skies were ready to open up their bellies at any moment. He trudged down across the street, stopped a taxi and entered. He asked the taxi to stop few metres away from Jamil's house,paid him and came out. He went and stood under a tree,surveyed the area then brought out his phone and dialled Jamil's number. It rang several times but there was no response. It began to drizzle and he put his phone back in his trouser. He walked towards the house,climbed the fence and jumped down inside the house. The door was wide open,the wind blew on the gate and it opened and closed. Hillary knew all wasn't ok;he ran into the house and saw Jamil lying on the floor panting,in his pool of blood. He rushed towards him and picked him up to the couch. He took a head warmer which Jamil had wore earlier from the centre table and put it on the wound in his chest to stop the blood.
"Yo... You... You're n... Not save here. They aare here. The flash.... Flower vass... Vessel." Jamil gasped painfully.
"Shh! Don't say a word again Jamil,I am here now;everything is going to be alright." Hillary said sobbing.
"I... I aam... Dying an..." Jamil inhaled deeply and became silent.
Hillary put two fingers on his neck,below his jaw and felt his pulse;there was non. He put his head on his chest for heart beat but there was non. He raised his head coldly and stared at Jamil; his his were still open and his mouth, half agape. Tears rolled down his cheeks. He has lost two vital people in his life because of his selfishness; he hated himself for that. The sound of something heavy landing in the house brought him back to reality. He looked towards the door in horror. The flash! He staggered up and rushed outside. He ran towards the flowers vessels and stopped abruptly when he saw three men fully armed approaching him. He made a sharp turn into the house and shut the house. The men started shooting at the door. He crawled to the back of the house and unlocked the door. He jumped and held the fence just a shot was fired at him. He fell inside the next house with a thud and held his stomach in pain. It began to rain heavily just then,he stood up and staggered to a fence not minding the barking of the dogs and jumped out to the other street.

Interesting...!

OMG dis z great

Nice work...

Episode 8


It was no longer raining,the doctor came out of the hospital few minutes to midnight with a bandaged head. He stroad to the parking space where his car was,opened the door,looked around before entering the car then close the door and inserted the key into the hole. The door opened and he squint in horror;it was Hillary leaning on the door.
"Please help me." He said in a low, pain filled tune.
"You see this?" The doctor said pointing at the bandage on his head. "I got it because I helped you, I will not repeat the mistake again."
"Please help me,they shot me and won't stop until I am dead."
"Then go to the police and report if you're innocent."
"Trust me I..."
He collapsed midway in his sentence. The doctor came out of the car and bent beside him,the hospital gown he was wearing was soaked with blood. The doctor sighed and raised the gown;the stitches was loose. It will be dangerous taking him back to the hospital. He opened the back-seat then lifted him from the ground and put him inside then closed the door. He entered the car,reversed out of the parking space then drove out of the hospital.
The doctor parked the car outside a white gate,came out,opened the gate,drove in then went and close the gate. He rushed to the car,opened the door and brought Hillary out. He carried him into the guest room and lay him on the bed and rushed to the store. He came back with a kit removed the gown and wore a latex glove. He removed the stitch, clean the wound then re stitched it. He put him on drip then left to shower. He went to the kitchen an microwaved the remnant in the fridge then returned to the guest room. He sat on a chair with hand on the chin staring at Hillary who was sleeping peacefully. The doctor slept off minutes later.
Hillary slowly opened his eyelids and looked around the room. He made attempt to sit up and hit the the side lamp on the drawer. The doctor jerked up from his sleep and looked towards Hillary.
"Don't sit or else the stitch will get loose again." The doctor caution rubbing sleep from his eyes. Hillary lay back nodding.
"Thank you for helping me." Hillary murmured.
"You're welcome. I will like to know everything about you...the gun wound,you don't look like an arm robber any ways. It is your private matter but I think I deserve to know,I saved you." The doctor shrugged smirking.
Hillary beamed and flicked his eyes."I know something dangerous about those people that's why they are after me, and they won't stop until I am dead."
"Something like?" The doctor asked nervously. Hillary gazed at him for awhile thinking. "It is ok if you don't want to tell me."
"It is not like I don't want to tell you,the thing is that what you want to hear might cause you your life."
"What do you mean by that?" The doctor asked confused.
"Those people are behind your bandaged head right?"
"Yes." The doctor replied touching his bandaged head.
"Worst might happen to you if you know more that you do know. You helped me and I don't want you to be involve in this."
"Ok,let me get something for you to eat." The doctor said standing up.
"It is morning already?"
"I guess." The doctor glanced at the watch on his wrist. "Eight twenty two."
"Ok."
The doctor went out and left Hillary lying down. Hillary shut his eyes trying to recall everything that happened. He was deep in thought that he didn't notice the doctor had come back. The doctor kept the tray on the drawer and tap him lightly on the shoulder. He opened his eyes fearfully and calm down when he saw it was the doctor.
"Tea and bread." The doctor said sitting down. "You know what,I am curious and won't mind the consequence;even if it will cause me my life."
"Help me." Hillary said. The doctor stood up and helped him up then went back to his seat. "Ok. You heard about the Olive comprehensive school bomb blast right?"
"Yes." The doctor nodded.
Those people are responsible for it and there are more to come."
"Who did you know that?"
"I am a computer engineer;I work with a top computer sale and repair company. I was sent by my boss to fix a problem at the defence headquarters and I came across an email with evidence of money laundering but later discovered a plan to carry out attacks and Olive comprehensive school is the beginning."
" You mean the blast that happened last night was carried out by someone from the defence headquarters?" The doctor asked confused.
"Yes,like Jamil said,it is a conspiracy within the government against the government."
"Who is Jamil?"
"My friend,he was killed last night." Hillary bit part of the buttered bread and sip the tea.
The doctor stare at Hillary;he was visibly terrified. He wiped the sweat forming on his forehead with the back of his palm. He stood up and stood hands akimbo.
"I know somewhere we can hide."
"No no,you can't help me. I won't allow you to risk your life. I don't want any more blood on my hands please. I am alone in this."
"I can't keep quite after learning of this. I must help you,if not for anything then for the love of my country."
"Plea..."
"I insist." The doctor interrupted.
"Ok." Hillary shrugged.

The doctor should be scared for his life
following closing...

Episode 9

Happy eid-kabir people

They parked distance away from the house and surveyed the area then Hillary went out. He put on the hood over his head as he walks towards the house. He look around again then jumped and held the fence and jumped into the house. The house was still the same way he had ran out weeks ago. He hurried towards the flower vessels and bent down then brought out a small torch from his pocket and on it. He searched the vessels but couldn't find the flash. His heart started pulsing in his chest. He removed the flowers from the sand and poured the sand on the floor. He scattered the sand around and began searching through it. He sighed relieved when he saw the it. He wiped sand away from the flash and put it in his pocket. His phone vibrate,making him jerk up fearfully. He brought out the phone and glance at the screen,it was a call from the doctor. His heart skipped a beat,had something happened? He thought as he swiped and answered the call.
"Hello." He said softly into the phone,shielding his mouth with his hand.
"Have you found it?"
"Yes... Have you... I am coming out now." Hillary said confusingly and ended the call.
He slide the phone into his pocket and trooped to the fence then jumped outside. He stroad to the car,looking around to make sure he was not seen. He opened the door,entered and they drove away.
They arrived at the doctor's aunt's house which is located at the suburb of the city and parked the car in the driveway. They came out,the doctor went and locked the gate then came back and met Hillary beside the car where he had left him. He walked towards the house with Hillary following closely behind and looking around;it was the third house they had changed in two weeks. Hillary wondered how connected the doctor is. As if reading his mind,the doctor stopped and turned to face Hillary.
"I know it is weird,changing houses like that. I am from an extended family and most of my family members are abroad,so I have access to the keys of their houses."
Hillary smiled and shook his head. The doctor turned and proceed into the house. The sitting room was large and fully furnished with modern equipment. Hillary sat on a leather sofa,his hands on his lap.
"What will I offer you?" The doctor asked dropping the keys on the table.
"Nothing,can I get a laptop?" Hillary asked tapping his feet on the tile floor.
"Noooo,but there is a desktop in the study room."
"Can I..." Hillary complete the sentence with his hand;demonstrating the inserting of something.
"Of course. Follow me please." The doctor uttered and walked inside the inner part of the house.
Hillary jumped up and followed him. He put his hand in the pocket and felt the flash. The doctor pushed a door and entered then switched on the light. Hillary followed him him;there were about five mighty shelf each filled with books and at a corner is an old desktop,sitting on a table and a chair in front of it. The doctor bent forward and on a switch then pressed the on button. He turned to Hillary and smiled.
"You're are go to go."
"Thank you."
Hillary sat on the chair,removed the flash from his pocket and insert the flash in the USB port and stared at the desktop screen.
He felt a sharp pain on his temple then collapsed to the floor. He looked up and saw the doctor smiling down at him. His eyes slowly closed and he passed out.
"Are you alright?" The doctor asked putting his hand on his shoulder. He turned back and looked at him;it was only a dream. He sighed inwardly and smiled.
"I am sorry."
Hillary held the mouse and clicked on the flash. There were dozens of files,his heart started beating fast and he began sweating in his palms. He could feel the piercing eyes of the doctor on him. He closed his eyes,n sighed and said a quick,quiet prayer then opened his eyes. He started opening the files one after the other;each of the files have it own evidence of crime. He continue opening and closing files for almost thirty five minutes before he came across the file he was looking for. He clicked on the file with shaky hand and scrolled down,turned and glance at the doctor who stood inches behind him with arms folded.

Episode 10

"Have you seen the file?" The doctor asked.
Hillary nodded. The doctor took a chair from the front of a reading table and sat beside Hillary. He schooled down a little and they peered closely at the screen. They turned and looked at each other worried then returned their gaze at the screen.
"Independence is in three days." The doctor said murmured.
"That's when they plan to carry out the attack,at the eagle square!" Hillary gulped flicking his eyes.
"It is going to be a massacre. The president,his vice,senate president,the speaker... Oh my God!" The doctor uttered frightfully.
"It is going to be the worst terror attack the world will ever see. We need to do something to stop the attack."
"Let's inform the police about it,or better still put it up on social media."
"That won't help,we will be frying ourselves if we do that. It is a conspiracy by some people within the government and we don't know who they are, they may plan something bigger if we expose them now."
"So what do you suggest we do now?"
"You love your country right?"
"Yes I do."
"Then it is the time to show your love."
"How?"
"We will stop them."
"You can't be serious!" The doctor chuckled.
"I am dead serious."
"How do you plan to do that?"
"I don't have a plan yet but I will come up with one before then."
"They are terrorist and we are ordinary people,well not ordinary par say. They have plans and we don't have. How are we eve..."
"We know their plan,we will step ahead of them." Hillary interrupted.
"How can..."
"Are you in?" Hillary asked.
The doctor stared into Hillary's eyes fixedly for some seconds and shrugged."Yes."
Hillary nodded and sneered. He eject the flash and shut down the desktop. He put the flash in his pocket and stood up,the doctor stood up also. They nod their eyes and left the study.
Hillary kept tossing and turning on the bed. He sat up on the bed and switched on the bed lamp. He took the wristwatch from the side drawer and glanced at it;few minutes to five. He dropped the wristwatch back and crawled out of bed. He shuffled lazily to the bathroom and eased himself. He brushed his teeth then walked to the sitting room. The light came on just as he was about sitting down. He turned abruptly towards the direction of the switch. He closed his eyes relief when he saw it was the doctor.
"I am sorry I scared you." The doctor uttered smiling.
"It is ok. Good morning." Hillary replied sitting down.
"Morning,how was your night?" The doctor drinking from the glass of what in his hand.
"I won't say it went fine;I couldn't sleep. I was awake throughout the night."
"Same here with me. I think it is because of what is going to happen today."
"I guess so. I wanted to watch some movies to calm my nerves."
"Ok,I will be in my room."The doctor said and left the sitting room.
Hillary switched on the television and started channel shuffling;the topic of discussion at almost all the local stations was the independence day celebration. This confused him more;if they only know what is in store for the country,they won't be discussing on television. He settled at an entertainment station showing music videos.

terrifically superb!
Looking so real!
