"Do I look like a joker to you? Do I look like one to you? I am no joker or comedian , I don't crack jokes. I kill people which brings me joy, kill, kidnap, abduct and torture or torment people. And I tell you, I just told you a fact, Miss!" He said to her, innocently."What? That's a lie! That all brags and nothing. Reporters and cameramen are everywhere in front of my grandfather's gate. I barely got out this morning when coming here!" Stephanie said to him with disbelief."Stone, bring me Steve!" He ordered Stone, who glared at Stephanie before walking away. "What is wrong with this guy? I don't even know and this just happened to be the first time we are seeing each other. How can he be so hostile to me?" She said aloud, staring at his moving figure.There was silence as everyone waited for Stone and Steve, it was extremely awkward."And who is this guy that mean guy has gone to bring?" She asked Graham as she looked down to him."One of the guys I took with me on the job," he si

She drove straight to Forklam Avenue, about a mile away from her place, Berkeley Hills. There was quite a distance between them. She drove with rage and annoyance. She has been pissed from morning when she just woke up to now which was almost noon time. Immediately she left Graham, she had gone to a restaurant to arrange her thoughts and emotions, have a breakfast then processed what's next to do. She could believe she spent more than an hour at Graham's hideout. That's sick, she thought to herself.Out of all her problems, only one has been solved. A spontaneous meal that was needed and she got a large delicious meal at the high end restaurant. There was only one name on her mind and she was going to deal with or face them to enquire what the duck were they thinking? As she thought about it, the angrier she got. She just lost a shot at getting Leonard and according to what Graham told her she had to pay another fee to secure his service and she wasn't ready for t

Suddenly the door opened with a creaking sound, loud and piercing. With it came an eerie feel as Emily felt a cold sensation all over her body and her hair flying like she was in the wind. She froze as she started hearing an indescribable sound, getting louder as the second went. Her hand was close to her phone when she slowly turned her hand towards the direction of the door, hoping to see nothing and all this was just her imagination. The door was opened, which was confusing because she knew the door was closed initially. There wasn't anyone in the doorway as she could see the clearing before the hut. Just as she was about to turn her head back she saw a figure appear out of nowhere, before her in all black. It was a shadow without a face or arms or legs. A smokey kind of shadow, a black ghost and immediately she let out a piercing scream with her eyes closed. She opened her eyes to see that the figure had gone, without thinking she was out of the hut

"What is the matter, Peterson? You look dull and unfocused, which is odd!" Lenon said to Peterson as they watched the men walked away. "I haven't been able to get through to Emily, since she left the house. It's been almost four hours gone," he lamented to his friend. "What do you mean by that? You can't get through to Emily? For the past four hours? What does that even mean? I don't believe you," Lenon said with a little bit of surprise all over his expression. "Yeah, she hasn't been herself since Leonard left the house this morning and after the left the house, I called her and she said she was on her way to get Leonard! I haven't been able to get through to her after that call," he explained, he had this sad frown on his face. "Leonard left? Why? I mean he can, why does she have a problem with that?" Lenon asked, wondering why Emily was throwing an unnecessary tantrum because her boyfriend left. "I don't know!" He replied, staring

The dirt route from the main road linked or rather led into a stony path, not narrow but wide enough to contain two cars at a time.Taking the path straight down leads to a sharp corner which has bushes and little woods on one side. From a distance you can see an upward landscape moving up into some sort of hill.Tracing the hill upward you could see some mountains and the rugged trail that leads to them.By the very sides of the hill, you can see bushes and scrubs and growing trees, palm trees and different other kinds of trees, the ones with the big barks and the one with branches extending to the other side.The trail leading up to one of the mountains, the closest one, is covered up and you have to pave your way with your hands or something when moving up. The other mountains come from behind it, one will wonder how to get to the other mountains but who knows they might be linked to each other through the same trail that leads to the first one.From a distance you could hear the ru
