The lights of the room were quite dim, Casandra dropped the bag in her hand, searching the whole place for Allen “Master Allen, Master All..ennn” her voice echoed throughout the rooms “The door wasn’t locked from the outside, that means he’s in here” she muttered still walking around.She subtly walked making sure that if he was home, she wouldn’t get scolded for snooping, she walked till she got to a locked room “He spends a lot of time in this place, I wonder what’s behind the door?” She wondered trying to unlock it, the door seemed old but it was quite sturdy.“It won’t budge,” she said trying her best to get it unlocked, but her effort failed, she then went to the living room, took out the food her mother gave her, placed it on the counter in the kitchen, she noticed a picture frame, she saw a girl a little bit older than her, she could tell, standing so closely with Allen, she picked up the frame tracing her fingers through Allen’s face.Then she suddenly heard something as thoug
Phily hadn’t lasted too long in the house, he didn’t want to stay too long especially now when he was being watched by Palmer. “Oh and by the way, there are some new checkpoints added to the area, I think in search of you” Phily said standing up to leave.“Yeah, I noticed it, thank you for the information, for everything” Allen said leaning in for a hug, they both clasped their hands together, giving each other a hug as well before Phily made for the door to leave.After the conversation he had with Phily, Allen sat on the couch in silence, scheming, his eyes staring into space, his arms folded, he had begun to think to himself ‘If I truly want all of them to go down, I’ll take what belongs to them, whatever they cherish’ he thought to himself, keeping a stern expression.“Is he gone?” Casandra’s soft voice emerged from the room “Yeah, you can come out now” Allen answered calmly, smiling at how scared she looked. She kept watching the door for some reason as though she was ready to g
“Are you going somewhere? Master Allen?” Casandra asked in a soft tone, her eyes watching him in amazement “Yeah, I’d say a stroll, I’ll be back soon enough” he said putting on his black leather jacket.“Okay, Master Allen, would you like anything specific to eat?” She asked, affection in her voice “Anything you can make for me is fine, thank you” he said with a smile as he made for the door to leave.“Master Allen” Casandra called out to him as he put on his shoes, leaning on the wooden frame by the door “Yeah” he answered. “Will you be alright going outside?” She asked, her hands clasped together “Why do you ask?” He asked, turning back “Well, I did see some police officers while I sat in the cab, they seemed to be looking for someone, I think you.. perhaps,” she said.“I understand your concern, Casandra, I’ll be fine, okay, I’m just heading out for a stroll, all will be well, I promise” Allen answered, ready to go, his feet firmly put into his shoes.Allen got into the dark Chevy
It was clear that without David’s help, it would be impossible to get rid of Allen and so this was the best idea he could come up with.The people who were still in the cafè put their hands over their heads even without warning “Sir, her.. shift.. Ju.. just ended, I.. think she left” the man standing at the counter answered, his voice was shaky as he stuttered “What if I say, I don’t believe you?” The man asked, his face scarred.“Boys, check the door over there,” he said pointing his gun in the direction of the door leading to the kitchen “Yes boss” they answered as they quickly rushed in with their guns.Ellen put her hand over Sally’s mouth as she shook her head in horror as they both stood on the toilet in the ladies’ washroom.Trying to maintain their balance, they had to be stealthy and then, they heard someone walk into the washroom door, a tear trickled down Sally’s face, her eyes watching Ellen in horror ‘Calm down’ Ellen mouthed.The person who walked through the door quickl
Allen looked at his side mirror and recognized the face almost immediately “Ohh I’m taking Kevar’s appearance, so how does this shape shifting work?” He muttered as he put the car to stop, close to a diner.‘You think of the face or even physical appearance of whoever you wish to look like and then it automatically becomes yours’ Ultimate spoke from within. “That’s a nice feature” Allen said coming out of the car “That’s just what I needed” he said as he took out his phone, looking at the time, it said 2:15pm “Might just grab lunch while I’m here” he said smiling.He walked into the diner and noticed that all eyes were on him, a middle aged woman approached him almost immediately “What would you like to have sir?” She asked softly, her eyes scanning his face as though she was lost in it. “I’ll have uhh.. burger and fries” Allen answered. “Do you want it now or to go?” She asked “I’ll have some now and put three to go” he answered. “Anything else, sir?” The woman asked again as though
David could hardly believe his eyes, this man held his fist almost immediately, pulling away from him as swiftly “Suprised?” The man asked rhetorically “Don’t be” he said walking towards David as he talked “Ellen, you need to get out of here, now” David said to her “What..what’s happening? Who are these people?” She asked him breathing heavily with tears in her eyes.“I doubt you know your cousin, as much as we know him,” the man said, approaching David “She is not to be involved, he’s looking for me and not her,” David said loudly to the man’s hearing “Well, my orders were straightforward, I am to bring the girl, whether you like it or not” he answered, a smirk forming over his lips.“Please.. we don’t need to cause more commotions here” David pleaded “Like I said before, we’ll take the girl and you’ll follow quietly behind, is that too hard to do” the man answered, his hands clasped together as though he was pleading as well.“Ellen, it’s gonna be fine, okay, let’s go, you’ll follow
Allen came to a halt, “Really, so he’s resulted to using the same cheap tricks he used on me to lure David” Allen said over the phone “Yeah, apparently, he’ll keep his cousin hostage until he does his bidding” Phily answered.“He must be feeling helpless, but the truth is, he kinda deserves it, working with a crooked man,” Allen said “Yeah, but his cousin’s innocent, I heard they raided the cafè where she worked and killed some innocent people there,” Philly said “That’s how he is” Allen replied.“What if I tell you that we can use this opportunity,” Philly said over the phone, his voice sounding ecstatic “How do you mean?” Allen asked. “What if we make a deal with David?, it seems as though he refuses to be his hunting dog” Phily suggested.“I’m listening” Allen responded “What if we help him free his cousin and send her to a safe place and ask for his help?” Phily said, “What makes you think he’ll be willing to help?” Allen asked “He knows all too well that she will die in his hands
He had thought long and hard, remembering his response to Lincoln “Why are you doing this?” David asked, his voice a bit throaty “You’re one of the few people who can defeat Allen Scott, just this one time David” Lincoln said in a patronizing voice.“Oh and if you think you have a choice, remember little Ellen” Lincoln added, a smile formed on his lips as he sat down on the side cushion “Don’t you touch her, I’ll do what you ask” he answered “There we go, now we’re on the same page, I need you to start tomorrow, partner,” Lincoln said as he walked through the doorway to another part of the house.Now, his eyes were wide open in the middle of the night “How am I supposed to sleep? Ellen’s in their custody, and until Allen’s dead, I can’t do a thing” he said to himself running his fingers vigorously through his hair. He stood up from the bed, turning the lights on which were on the side table close to the bed, he walked downstairs in an attempt to get some water.He quickly went downsta
