There is a point in one's life where he or she would do anything to gain freedom, anything which would take them out of bondage, most especially when they have been in such bondage for a long period of time, this is actually the situation Aaliyah was currently in.The phoenix princess has been in the custody of the black bulls for a long time, it was more like her past life was over and the new life which had been given to her by Mr X was the only life she was living at the moment. No matter how Mr X seemed familiar to Aliyah, she still couldn't figure out who he really was, he was always with the mask and most times if he wasn't putting on the bull mask, he would have a nose mask covering the bottom part of his face, living his hair and eyes with a small porting of his nose out in display. Aliyah was already tired of this bondage, although she was already aware that her brother and mason were already out there, fighting for her freedom, she still thought that escaping from the dark

Dashing through the forest, with her whole body feeling weak, Aliya continued, with the determination and hope of encountering someone, anyone, anyone who would be able to set her free, it was hard for her to move but she kept on going, she seemed to feel like she hadn't had anything to eat for some days, her stomach feels empty which was the reason for her body weakness.As she ran through the forest, she couldn't kept her head straight and looking forward, as she could be seen looking behind her from time to time, she knew she couldn't just escape like that without been chased, she knew the two guards who had seen her escape would surely come after her, that is is if they weren't already on her tail, and it didn't take long for her to hear the sounds of crushed dried leaves coming from behind her, at once she knew it was them , she was been followed. Aliyah was smart, she knew there was no way she could outrun them , she was weak and starving, how would she be able to outrun two ab

" Mason needs to hear about what ? ", Immediately Claire heard this, she froze on the spot, she could recognize the voice at once and it had come from the very person which she didn't want to know she had found about about this. " I'm asking " Allen's voice came again from behind Claire,and slowly she began to turn around, and as her eyes locked with that of Allen , Claire tried to read his expression, but it was really not an easy job to do, Allen's expression was blank making it impossible to read. Claire couldn't really tell how the man was feeling or what he was thinking at the moment. She didn't know if he had seen her pick up the call earlier, or what if Fred had called again and told him that the call was picked up earlier by a woman? . Different thoughts crossed through Claire's mind as she stood there outside the tent staring at Allen who was shirtless with a bandage wrapped around his shoulder. " Oh f*ck this hurt , " Allen said as his blank expression turned into that of

One of the things which Mr X didn't want was Aliyah's escape, she had made an attempt few months back and he was very confident that she wouldn't b able to make it out of the forest, of course this was due to the fact that the forest was more like a maze, one could easily get lost and not find their way back or out of the forest. But at this moment, Mr X couldn't possibly be as relaxed as he was the first time aliyah had attempted to escape, there was a reason for this. The reason was due to the fact that those who had come for her rescue were already around, this people included mason and the rest, them being in the forest, and even with the forest built like a maze, there was still a high tendency that they could find Aliya.What would be the essence of the war if they suddenly saw Aliya running out of the bushes and into their arms, the war would come to an end and it would be a big loss to Mr X and his team. With this in mind, Mr X knew Aaliyah shouldn't be left even for a minute

The night which had came with a calm breeze one which sent chills down the spine of every living thing around, this cool breeze was brought by the waves which blew from the large water bodies around the forest, in as much as this evening had blessed mason and his soldiers with calm breeze, it had came with something else, something balarming that had made most of the people around panic. Jackson and Abby had just been reported missing, mason who was standing on a spot, taking in the environment and thinking about all that had happened since they arrived at the forest, was just disturbed by Claire and Chris who had just broken the news to mason, telling him about Jackson and Abby who both seemed to have left and had not returned up till this point. " Send words to the commander, I need to speak with him now, '' Mason said as he stroked his chin , thinking of what must have possibly happened to his two elite members. " And please let this be a little secret for now , it wouldn't be ni
