"Just make another turn and we'll be there in no time." The kidnapper said. Allen gave him a hateful look before he turned back and kept his eyes on the road. Allen took out his phone to check if there was any update about his sister being found. He couldn't find any, so he turned his phone back off in anger and sank back into his seat, he closed his eyes and curled his fists into a ball. "When I get my hand on those idiots who took you, I'm so going to punish them and make them beg for their deaths!" Allen said under his breath. "Did you say something boss?" Buff asked, his eyes darting from a furious-looking Allen to the road. "No I wasn't talking to you, just focus on driving," Allen said to him and looked out the window. "There, we're almost at the downtown area." The kidnapper announced and caused Allen to look up ahead. "About time!" Allen said and Buff began to slow down. "Why are you suddenly slowing down?" Allen asked, voicing his surprise. "So that I can note of thi

It didn't take up to a moment for Allen to realize that he had been set up. "You bloody bastard!" Allen seethed as he clenched his teeth. He was about to go after Phillip when one of the men held him by his arms, preventing him from going further. "Let me go you bloody fools!" Allen yelled and tried breaking the man's hold around his arm but his efforts were in vain. Buff tried running to Allen's rescue when another man grabbed him from behind. The man was about the same size as Buff so it was very easy for Buff to overpower the man and throw him onto the floor. He ran toward Allen and elbowed the man holding tightly to Allen across his face. The man grunted in pain and fell to the floor. "Shit!" The man cursed under his breath as he felt blood dripping from the corner of his eye. "Don't let them escape..." The man muttered as he tried getting up but he felt a pang of pain shoot through his face and it caused him to fall back onto the floor. "Let's get out of here quickly boss!"

Allen walked through the door, with Buff trailing slowly behind him. "Boss, I don't think you should be going inside without finding out what is in there first," Buff said and was starting to feel scared because the whole place was darker than the dungeon itself and none of them knew what must be lurking in the corners. "Allen, I think we should go back now!" Buff said, he wanted to run back out but he couldn't because he was eager to see what was behind the door. "I can sense something in here!" Allen said and stopped abruptly in his tracks. "Then let's go back out, whatever it is, it could be dangerous," Buff informed him but Allen didn't seem to be listening to whatever was being said. "Boss?" Buff called again and he even had to tap him on the shoulder but still, Allen didn't flinch. "I can sense it in here, I thought I had lost it but it's in here, how is it in here?" Allen said to himself. "What is in here?" Buff asked, turning to face Allen but Allen kept his head up ahe

Allen began to slow down the car when the road Ultimate had instructed him to take was coming into view. "What are you doing boss!!" Buff screamed out. "Shut the hell up and just follow my lead," Allen said to him as the car was starting to come to a halt. Buff was starting to get angry, he shot Allen a hateful look, he knew Allen couldn't see what he was seeing and just a while ago, he had started acting out of character. He couldn't explain why Allen was slowing down even when those men were on their trail but he wasn't going to let himself get killed over one man's stupidity. The car hadn't been totally fine to a half before Buff kicked the door of the car open and jumped out. Allen who hadn't been paying attention to the conflicts and emotions on Buff's face suddenly turned and watched in silence as Buff rolled away from the car. "Where the hell are you going to?" Allen asked nonchalantly, he wasn't all too concerned about Buff's decision at this point and it was only his

"What do you mean by I'm in a trance?!" Allen asked as his eyes widened in shock. —isn't it obvious?— ultimate asked but it made it seem as if he was being sarcastic Allen knew that Ultimate was not the one to make jokes all the time. "Obvious?!" "I'm so lost right now that I don't know what you're talking about." —Wake up Allen and I mean it literally— ultimately said with a sense of urgency. "I don't understand what you're saying, what do you mean by I'm in a trance?!" Allen asked, getting up from the couch where he sat. —Are you not aware of your surroundings?— ultimately asked him surprised at Allen's reaction. "I'm not, please I want you to explain things to me, I have no idea about what you're talking about!" —Now tell me, do things feel right, I mean can't you tell that a lot of things seem out of place?— Allen looked around the room, taking in the arranged area, "No, nothing looked seems out of place here." He said. —I'm not talking about your room silly, I m

—Do you remember the first night when some people broke into your house and carted away with some things?—"People have always been breaking in and I know that they will continue to break in," Allen said. "But that still doesn't answer my question about me being in a trance." —I need you to remember that particular night when some people broke into your house.—"What night was that, was it at this house or the other one," Allen asked, intuitively pointing his fingers backward. —No this house, it happened weeks after you moved in... Do you remember now?—"Yes yes I do, so what about it?" Allen asked. —Good, I wasn't with you at the time so I wasn't able to warn you about their plans. Those people who broke into your house are your rivals, well they work for your rivals.—"Rivals?? I thought I had only people who were jealous of my success apart from the loan sharks." —These are more deadlier than the loan sharks and when I say by your rivals, I mean that they are your competitors a

Allen agreed to let himself be transported back to the realm where they had been earlier. It scared him at first when Ultimate told him that he had rivals who would go to any length just to see that they see him suffer before eventually taking him out. And the worst was that they had trapped him in a trance that was on a loop, his days were on a continuous repeat but he wasn't aware of it and the fact that this was possible only heightened his fear. "What do I do to wake up?" Allen asked the moment they had been transported back to his room. —A lot of things, Allen, a whole lot of things.— ultimate responded. "Get me started on them, do I need to take a note to jot them down or something?" —You don't need that, first of all, your rivals do not know yet that you've found out about being a trance, and two, they don't know that I'm no longer in their possession— "So we're on a good start, aren't we?" Allen asked, his tone was etched in apprehension that he was barely breathing

Allen quickly dodged the bullet, thanks to Ultimate who had easily pointed out where he would shoot from. "Try again in hell," Allen said and a gun was shot at Moses on his hand, making his gun drop. Everyone averted their gazes to the door and saw two familiar men standing there, Sylvester Williams and David, the last two users. "One thing I hate the most is to be fooled and you all fooled me," Williams said and stepped forward. "All these years, I believed my death would bring calmness to the world. I thought I was doing it for the good and safety of this world. I even went as far as hunting down the other users just to satisfy you. I should have known better."Lake and Mike tried to attack but they got shot instantly by Mary and Josh who both walked in together. "I hope I am not too late?" Mary asked and crocked her gun. "You- you should be dead," Lake said, groaning in pain. "Unfortunately, I am not. I am your nemesis and that's why I survived," Mary answered and pointed her

The hall became silent as they all had their eyes on him. Suddenly, one of them stood up and smirked. "Allen Scott, we have been expecting you. You came right to us," he said. Allen crocked his gun and pointed it at him. "Yes. And I am here to end this nonsense. Enough with all his. You all have hunted our lives for years but today, all this is going to end."The man clicked his tongue and shook his head. "Do you think all these would be the end?""I don't think. I know. Besides, no one is going to save any of you. The agents are gone."The man averted his gaze to Moses and shook his head. "You finally got them. I am sure you told them about you being the good guy and we being the bad guy."Allen drew his brows and looked at Moses who had no expression on his face. He immediately knew what Mary said was true. They were to be trusted and for that, he wasn't surprised. "Mr Scott, do you believe everything this man told you?" Allen looked at Moses again and smirked. "Why shouldn't I

Mary noticed the man secretly smiling at someone behind her and when she turned, she saw it was George. Her heart skipped a bit. He was smoking back at them but in a way that said 'good job,' she swallowed hard and looked at the men as her instinct immediately pointed at George as a member of the group that attacked them. She quickly shook her head and tried to brush off her thought. "No, George wouldn't do this. He is part of this team and has been a loyal member," she concluded inwardly and glanced at him one more time. This time, she noticed he was staring back at her with a frown plastered on his face. He stared for a while before he let out a small smile.She gulped nervously and looked away. "This can't be. George can't be part of them," she said and stood up, bringing everyone's attention to her. "What is wrong?" Allen asked, staring at her with concern. She looked at George again who had his brows creased. She couldn't take away the thought that he could be one of them an

"Tomorrow?" Josh asked with his eyes stretched wide. He walked forward and went on, "What do you mean tomorrow? We aren't prepared to face this people. We would need more time.""Mr Gregory," Moses called, taking Josh by surprise because he never expected him to know his name. Moses went on, "It was a quick date fixed and I have no power to stop it. The project society are been too anxious and that would be our greatest weapon against them.""Greatest weapon? In what way would we win this fight when I don't even have a clue of what you are talking about?""They are moving quick. Tomorrow is the day for the project," Lake answered."How is that possible? We haven't been caught by them," Josh asked, stepping forward."They have you all where they want you. They will come over to take you tonight."Allen drew his brows in confusion. "What do you mean? How do they have us right where they want?""Do you think the society are dumb? They know where you all are. They have been monitoring you

Steph abruptly stood up, shocked to see her standing there. She swallowed hard and asked nervously, "how long have you been there?""For a while," she answered and walked in completely. "There is someone who wants to meet you," she said and quickly walked out of the room. Steph sighed deeply and faced Allen who stood quietly, staring at the closed door. "She heard us. I feel so bad," she muttered."Let me go and meet this guests of mine," he answered dryly and walked out of the room. "This guy is messed up," she muttered and went after him. They got to the living room and Allen drew his brows, seeing the strange faces in the living room. As he drew closer, they all stood up. "Hello, Mr Scott," they greeted in unison.He got closer and stood before them. "Hello to you too. How may I help you?" He asked. "I am Moses Banks, this man beside me," he pointed at the man by his right side. "Is Lake Hall. And the second here is Dennis. We are all aware of your position as the subject been

"Brother I-" Steph barged into the room and her words hung in her throat when she saw Allen and Mary jerked up. Just when their lips met, they got distracted. Steph who had noticed what they were doing, looked down embarrassed. "I am sorry for barging in this way," she apologized. Allen's eyes stretched wide, realizing what he had done with Mary. He looked at her and noticed she looked embarrassed and was trying not to look at anyone. He cursed inwardly and rubbed the back of his neck "What happened to me? What was I about to do?" He asked, mad at himself. "I can come back later. It's not important," Steph said and made to leave but Mary stopped her. "You don't have to go anywhere, Steph. I am about to leave," she said and hurried out in embarrassment. Immediately she did, Steph's lips curled up into a smile as she faced her brother. "Big bro, what is going on?" She asked cheekily. Allen rubbed his neck and sat on his bed. He was still trying to figure out what had happened to

All of them stared at him, surprised to see a different person. Allen let out a deep breath and stood up. "I have gone through the first step of my plan and that is going to Josh's company. I've been able to convince someone important to join me."Josh drew his brows, wondering who he was referring to as the important person. "Who is that?""I will let you know when the time comes," he answered. "So what is your next plan?" Steph asked, worried about her brother and at the same time, glad he wasn't having so much anger that she thought would ruin him. "I will be visiting the safe very soon. I think my money is long over due there," he answered. "Are you crazy!" Steph and Maryjane chorused at the same time, with their eyes popped open. "Why would you plan to do that when you know the situation surrounding you?" Dr Thompson asked. "I won't be able to do this on my own. I will need all your help but you don't have to worry, no one would be in danger because this. I have a plan and

Allen looked intently but found nothing. He drew his brows and looked at the old man. "What do you want me to see there? There is nothing except water," he answered. "Look carefully."Allen strained his eyes, trying to see what he was talking about but there was nothing. Was the old man imagining something there? It could be possible because his sight most have gone bad, he thought."There is nothing there," He answered, confident about it.The old man clicked his tongue and gave him a light got on his shoulder. "That is what you think. It is because you allow your eyes are what you want it to see. Look deeper and you will find what I am showing you."Allen looked closely and it took a while before he saw something floating on the water. "What is that?" He asked. "That is something I put on the water. Don't worry, I will get it out," he answered and laughed. Allen wondered why he didn't notice t at first. The old man laughed to his heart content and faced him again. "You see, not

Allen drove down the road, heading for his villa. His first mission for the day was accomplished and that was getting Mr Benson to his side. Getting the others would be easy. He suddenly took a different turn, heading for the beach instead. "Why are you going to the beach?" Ultimate asked. "I need a time to myself. I have a lot going on and all I can think of right now is bringing the project Erubus society down. My anger is really overwhelming me and now, I am really worried," he answered and let out a deep breath. "Every one keeps telling me to calm down and not make wrong decisions because of my emotions. I think they are right. I need to calm down so I can handle this mission as calmly as I can.""That's a great step, Allen. Anger is a strong feeling of displeasure, hostility towards someone, usually with an urge to harm. It's good you decide to calm yourself down."Allen laughed at how ultimate read out the meaning of anger to him. He focused his attention on the road until he
