Phew. One man only
However, Lekan had other thoughts. ‘ It was his fault. And it was up to him to fix it. The pain that dug at his arms and his legs are enough motivation for him. He gritted his teeth, flinching at the effort he placed in doing that. He locked eyes with the pot bellied bully, ignoring the hapless expression of Keder and the desperate silent plea for him to break camp and escape. This would not be over, until he made it so. The man who effortlessly took care of the Returning Man was out for him. And that enough was clear. “AMIHANNNNN!” Lekan roared out, throwing out his arms to the side. The Pot bellied man tilted his head, his pupils dilating in excitement at this. He was curious about what happened next. And made no effort to hide it. Lekan didn't care much about it. There was only one trump card which he had. And although he did not like using it, it was clear that this was the only option he had at this moment. Letting Amihan take over. His desperate roar split his foc
He had no reason to stay but he stayed. His mind was lit ablaze by the tenacity of the mind of his prey. Or the mind of the one person who he was grooming. The fact that Lekan would want to undergo the most tasking of challenges was fun for him to witness. And although it irked him in some way, he knew it would not be long, Soon enough, he would have the pound of flesh that he was after. And this game he played would be gone. If only Lekan had been strong when he met him. Perhaps, this would have been over soon. Void thought these thoughts with a smile on his face. As usual, his face was calm, despite the little smile playing on it. He had patience. He definitely had a lot of it. And soon enough, it would pay out all too well for him. The only thing he had to make sure to happen was prevent Lekan from getting extinguished before then. “Ah! Are you not going to do something now?” Void mentioned to Lekan with concern in his voice, Even though he could not wait for Lekan to g
“We have a situation. Mobile officers on duty report to the Radjo Warehouse in immediate effect. Multiple casualties and strange occurrences happening over there.” The radio button on the mobile unit police man’s bike boomed out just then. The man riding it stopped, frowning lightly as he lifted the visor of his helmet up. One look at the radio button showed how very puzzled he was on the subject matter. “Radjo Warehouse?” He frowned even deeper now. “But that place has been dressed for some time now. What would be there now?” He asked nobody else. Officer Charles was a very meticulous man. He never liked to leave things to chance and at the same time, he ;ie to be very thorough with what he was assigned to. It was one of the reasons why he was everywhere as a mobile police officer on a motor bike.It was indeed a rare occurrence to see policemen on bikes in this part of the country being that the bikes are not highly valued by the force men. That is, the rate of preserving mo
“Call me doom.the unifier of all systems.” the pot bellied man said with a smile on his face the first words he had ever spoken in this place. Beattie paused on this. Leslie and Frank didn't share the same thoughts with her “And so what?” Leslie yelled at him. Her body started to glow just then as purple markings grew out on the fingers and her neck. She had a maddened look on her face as she glared at the man with despisement in her eyes. She’d had enough of this man and the guts he had in dealing with Lekan this way. Her what throbbed with the pain in seeing him in this state. It reminds her so bitterly of Frank and the fact that he and Lee had been involved in a nearly death match some days back. A memory which she did not want to recall now. All the same it was annoying for her. she had not seen Lekan in so long a time and this was the first sight of him she was coming to? Certainly not the one she approved of. It was infuriating to see him in this state. The same L
“So is it time you thought about my offer, boy?’ The loud voice of Amihan in Lekan’s Subspace boomed just then. It was loud and clear. Telling him with a distinct voice to take action. An action on which he had been clearly advised not to take. He bit down on his lower lip, his vision shaky. His eyes set forward. With trembling limbs and wobbly arms, he considered the odds before him. The odds of him getting out there to get a hold of Keder. Right before any of this went messy. It was sure going to be. There was the boy who he had seen with Leslie. And there was Leslie. Plus this new woman in this place. Even if he did not know what the man in the brown suit was capable of, he had a fair idea of what was going to happen here. Unless this doom man was way stronger than the lots of them, he was going to be out down. And in the midst of this. There would be for sure collateral damage. Which he could not afford. Keder could not be one, neither could Favor or May or even the inheri
“Ah!” Keder gasped for breath now She didn't believe her eyes. She could not believe her eyes. She was shocked but at the same time,she was happy. Excited for the fact that she had been taken out of the danger zone. It Was all about them, nonetheless. That much was clear enough for anyone to see that. Yet,the excitement which bustled within her was immeasurable. She has given up hope. He meant her leg stopped working, that was when she was done for. At the mercy and the whims of the man who so easily killed the Retuning man and took the life of Whip just like that. However, what she did not bargain for was the fact that he would be the one to come to save her. That is, Lekan himself even when the people from the System Bureau were all around. In the New Age Foundation, she had been taught to hate whatever the Bureau had to offer. And when she had come on this mission, the briefing she did receive back then was that Lekan was a part of them. The earlier she had to hate him, the
And the other, from the ground, blitzing forward in haste. Shockwaves rolled out in continuous waves as they hurtled onward, each of them having one thing in their mind. off each other. each other, one from the sky and one from the ground , each of them having the thoughts of one thing in their mind. The thoughts of taking over the other and subduing him down to the ground. Thought of total domination, thoughts of which only one of them would come out as the victor from this. The closer they got, the more the thoughts dominated their mind, hatred for the other surging to insurmountable amounts. It was the deciding moment. However, they were not the only ones. For beneath them, fingers pointed. Eager faces of Leslie and Frank watching with narrowed eyes. The man with the suit pointing and saying somethings to which Beatrice continued to agree with nods, despite how tensed she was. Something was about to happen, the air was full and thick and nervous anticipation as they watch
Just as soon as it started, it was over. Lekan felt exhaustion seep into his body. His legs wobbled as his body hit the ground. Clarity flowed within him, having the blood demon quieted now.He grimaced, inhaling shaky breaths as Frank heaved also behind him. He was saved but he was angry. The act of saving ought to have been him. It was his responsibility. His pact to take down the idiot of a man who thought he could bully just anybody.Lekan hated bullies. The experience of knowing his own father bullied Uncle Desmond never went well with him. Also part of the reason why he had been eager to get someone handle the responsibility of the company. Though, by law, it was on him nonetheless to do that,However, something clicked within him. At the sight of Frank, the warm smile the latter shot at him, it calmed his nerves down.There were on the same thing, nonetheless. No matter how it went, they would be on the same thing. Though, if it had to do with the System Buteau, then he was la
