Bathump! Bathump! My blood is pumping
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
There were a lot of things in the System Bureau that Dayo could not understand. He could not understand. Or indeed, he would not bother to put in the effort to understand them.He sighed heavily now, with his hands in his pocket. He was in his signature black and black attire. A black trousers, with his black shirt on along with the tie of the same color.His hair was neatly shaven, almost low cut but with some finesse attached to it. He was dark complexioned and very attractive to behold.He took in a deep breath. Breaths after breaths now, taking in the beauty of the afternoon setting.The helicopter had just arrived, after the long journey from the Headquarters of the System Bureay.Now, he was back in Uganda, ready to continue his operation in the Facility where he’d left the miss in charge.Taking a helicopter had been his choice. He would have simply chosen to have use the teleportation abilities that the System Bureau boasted of to arrive in his place without a single fuss. Or w
Dayo was short for words.The effrontery and guts that Louise had to even confront him on the method of approach with the girls was startling. Who would have thought that this head of department would not mind his own business?Since when did the Facility affairs become his own affairs? Even Monsieur Demas with all of his ego would never bother him for how he ran things. The highest he had ever done was to plant Ms Rachel as a means of checks and balance for him.And that was it.Not this act from Louise suddenly.In a fit of anger, he swerved around, trying to find the one who was supposed to be in charge: Ms Rachel, that is,When he left her, she was the one who was to step up to things. He would have loved to think she was capable of that. Not what he saw.Not this outrage from Monsieur Louise and the guts he had in defending it. What if something happened to the girls? What if they chose to rebel at this point? After all, they knew about the secrets of the Bureau and they could ch
“Haaaa!” “Yaaaaaa!!” The excitement was in the air. One did not need a soothsayer to se show very well the girls bought into this. It was in their faces that Dayo wondered if he had the right to even get mad. The right to get mad over the fact Monsieur Louise did not bother to hold back on them. They looked like they did not want to complain. Not because he would have hurt them for it. But rather, it was more of the fact that they enjoyed this. And they possibly thought that if they did complain about the way he approached this game, then he would stop it.Which was the truth. He saw them as eggs. His kids. Even though in the actual sense of it, he was just some scientist here tk run some experiments on people that wing be makes by the society y out there. Still, having to watch tje. As they matured and grew with one another rubbed off on him. It was hard to deny that. Which was why if anything did happen to them, ge would not hesitate to see that it was ended. They are his resear
Dayo was both shocked and happy about this. The first condition for this was based on the event that happened. The question left unanswered. What exactly was the reason Bumju took them out ?It was beyond him. And when he tried to probe him then, the man expertly dodged the question. Putting it to a Leslie to act in a way out of her goodness tk save Lekan. Or whatever the issue he was in. He knew who Lekan was. Almost everyone who was in the upper echelon of the System Bureau knew who he was by now. Himself included. Lekan was the new host of the System for the Blood Domination Sytem. The System which has gone offline for more than 20years now. Only to suddenly get active. Surely, it was sure enough to get the attention of the Systsm Bureau. They always kept track of everything which happened in the System World.Whether it concerned them directly or not, they kept a tight hand on it. And this was well respected, such that even the rival companies did not hesitate to share the inf
He admired her courage. The extreme confidence which she exuded as he made her way to him he first place. It was noteworthy and Dayo hummed at it.He narrowed his eyes, watching the fair skinned lady before him. The other trooper inside, leaving just himself and this one. And of course, Ms Rachel. He frowned at it. Why was Ms Rachel still hanging around now? Was she not supposed to be inside too?Then it hit him just then. She was not only the one who kept in checks and balance. Right from the time the new girl came in, she was automatically assigned the position of her handler. Meaning she was responsible for the well-being of the girl. The one in her charge and for everything wlse to ensure that she ass fine and the research mission went in without halt. He nodded at it. Perhaps, she was not as poorly dedicated as he already wrote her off. She was only dealing with someone who was just everywhere. Someone who did not take no, would not take no for an answer. “You are the new gir
If it would help her get some information about Lekan and his whereabouts, she was up for it. Though, with a slightly confused expression on her face, her eyebrows narrowed down and her lips slightly apart, she was yet to understand the relation between the two things.How did it connect? Why was he asking her now? After Al, if her memory served her right, she’d seen Dayo in the video call she had with Monsieur Demas on the very first day. Or the first night, she got dragged into all of this. Blessing sighed. As she could not understand it, she would not act like she was off. Anything which would get her an attempt at being closer to Lekan.Anything at all that would bring them even an inch closer, she was welcome to that. So long as it was within the bounds of reasoning. Which was why she was yet to understand the very logic. How her story of her entry related to the information she asked for.With a tsk of her tongue against her lips, she watched Monsieur Dayo. Her expression light
His vision was not like this. The future had changed. Lekan realized that now as he stood with the Mana blockers in tow. He locked eyes with Blesing who continued with her spell, unbothered by the fact that he was hee. And the strange creature of a woman that he had grown to be familiar with, in the red flowing gowns seemed to be urging her on. Whatever Blessing was doing, the woman in the red flowing gown seemed to need it quite urgently. He could not shake off the bad feeling about it. And the sensation that's why was his opponent. The feeling that he had had to fight her in a distant future. A future which a snow repeating itself for him, His vision waived now. The things he saw changed in a blink. In this time, he saw himself on the ground and a council which held over his head. They deliberated one thing about him and how to ensure that the timeline changed. {See the prologue} It felt very familiar to him. And this time, Lekan could not deny that this happened. Understand
Lekan got out of the building. Frost things first, he would get to make sure that blessing was alright, then he would make sure that the Bureau was set right. He did not want to run. Not away from it. He had been running for far too long and look what that led him to? What if as I ran away, more things started to happen to innocent people? People like Keder, the Bureau stealing her life and youth from her. The anger started to boil in him that he did not know when he started to run towards Blessing. The latter continued her spell as more and more mana started getting sucked into it. ‘ Just then, two people landed down from a building. One Of them having purple tattoos on her back faded off into nothingness. While the other one pumped his legs towards Lekan. Itw as Frank and Lekan. In no time, Frank caught up with Lekan and with strong hands, he hoisted him from behind. “What?” Lekan gasped out. His arms locked up from behind his back.. By the time he turned backwards, he
Just like it started, in the suddenness of the day, it ended. Relief swept across the ranks of the system bureau in one accord. They could all sit back and take in gasps of air. They had one priority while trying to ascertain what they were up against. They Had one thing which they had to do. And thaw was what they carried out all diligently. The safety of those who weep with them. THose who did not know what it meant to be system holders as they could not effectively fight back. Those who needed to be helped just because they did not have a system to start with. This was the priority of the higher ups in the actions. Only fighting back when they had no chance. All hope had been cast on monsieur Dayo and the actions he had been doing at the Research Facility. The research which had kept him busy back then, the same thing which had made him invulnerable to any threat which came from the council towards his being. It was in this moment that he would prove his mettle and hsi wor
She saw him. This was not like the threat that they had just faced down but it was still a threat for them. She glinted in anger as she started to run now. Ignoring the call of the other girls as they realized that the other demon had vanished as well. Thai was not their fight, at least, until they received further instructions from Monsieur Dayo on what to do next. His body scaled through the broken down side of the walling of the class snow. With her body still in drive now, she drove her hands to the stomach part of the demon. With quick succession ,she dealt multiple mana blocking blows there and then. The diamond screeched and the result was concluded immediately. It fell down with a thump as it revealed her to the people in the classroom now. And to the one she was looking to see. ‘Lekan!” Blessing called out with excitement in her face. “Blessing?” Lekan turned around with surprise in his eyes. He was hardly taken aback with many things. He knew that something would
Earlier on…. When he got the summon from Monsieur Demas, Dayo knew it was pretty serious. It wasn't something to be taken lightly. Especially when they had just crossed a milestone now. The unveiling of the Bureau would just be out there. This would be a major setback, if they did not handle it well. And so, he let go of the grudge he had with Monsieur Demas. After all, beyond their conflict and personal interest, they still had a duty to the System Bureau. They had to fly its flag and answer the summons against anything which was out there to bring it devastation and destruction. And this summon was just one of them. He braced for combat., literally. Donning his costume as what they knew of him as The Switch. He had to be ready for just anything and that included what he wore. This time, things would be different, Msnier Dayo said to himself even as they poured into the System Bureau. They would not have to depend on him alone in the combat of whatever they had to face. This
His words brought courage to all of them. Even Lekan himself could not help but feel fired over the words that he spoke. Perhaps, now, the perspective n of Donald by the people of his special class would change now. Change for the better, no doubt. The demon lady is frustrated. She shook her head, stomping her legs as her four arms slapped down on her waist now. “ Oh No! I hate this. Don't you play tricks o0n me>” he growled out as the decoy which she held in her hands now faded into nothingness. It was not the prey she wanted. And it infuriated her. “wEe need space.” Donald mentioned now. “Helen, your turn.” he called out. Immediately Helens dropped down to the ground. She slapped her hands flat out on the floor and then with a chant, her eyes went dark. All blacked out. “Shadow domain.” Dark circles appeared on the ground. They grew instantly with the demon lady with in the center of it now. The circles expanded instantly, merging into one gigantic black shimmering cir
The moment he got to know about the invasion of demons in this place; the first thing he did was to find a way to reach Leslie. He pretty much was trying to find his way about things in this place. And the only one who had shown the willingness to show his way around was none other than Leslie. Frank heaved as he held his right arm. It has healed over the time since the last time he had to get physical with anybody. And thankfully, there had been no cause for him to get involved with any fight. That is, he assumed Lee Min must have learnt his humility and then stayed to himself afterwards. He smiled to himself over this thought now. In the time past, he never did see himself as someone who would have to avenge anybody but now, it was becoming sort of his motto. Not like he was complaining about it. After all, the responsibilities of a King were numerous. And he had to exact them with the proper justice that was needed for each situation he found himself in. “What do we do?” HE
Power in the hands of chaotic beings is just a lower sample of hell. The demons surged about, numerous in their numbers as they screeched and roared. The unlucky humans who got up in their paths were gobbled up, eaten and then regurgitated as pieces of bones and blood. Fear gripped the ranks of the Bureau. In all their times of weidling systems, they never did expect to run into something like this. It has always been about fighting humans. Humans who would go against the way of things of the Bureau. Those who would flaunt the order of things. Those who would would want to thwart the general agenda of the Bureau. Never about things of this proportion. Never about misshapen beings that looked like a hybrid of several creatures. Black with wings, baleful eyes of red with poor patchwork of muscles over long bones for the ones who walked. Those ones measured several meters high, even as much as 8ft tall. The ones who flew were the smaller ones. Having the likelihood to apes, flying
Helen sighed, patting the black crop top she had on. The action brought focus to her belly button,the size of a water drop, externally. . It was slightly larger than normal. A phenomenon which was referred to as ‘dodo’ by his country's people. Oftentimes it was used as a term for light hearted mockery. But sighting it on her, the confidence at which she exuded even with it being exposed, it triggered him sexually. He loved her personality. The way she carried herself even though she knew she was not the best. But still had some air of confidence, as well as a bit of empathy. The fact that instead of leaving outrightly with him, she stayed behind to let him clear his head was lovable. Unlike someone who knew. The person of Lady Beatrice. She cared very less whether you’re anted to be teleported or not. As long as she had you in mind to transport, that was what she carried out. Consent or not. “You.” A raspy voice sounded now. It had a tone that spoke of humor and at the same time m
