Herald of Vengeance Scorpio Might Escape Justice...
Illibio had his feet above the ground, covered in shoes made of tough leather and a metal end. He was going to trample on Lyanna's fingers. He was going to destroy her hand and take revenge on Andre for making him lose a finger.Andre was still covered in dirt, the dusty atmosphere blocking his vision. But he could see slightly what was about to unfold. Still he could not do anything from where he was, there was nothing he could do.So he only screamed, "No!!!" Like an helpless child who was watching his mother being taken away.As Illibio brought down those deadly legs, it played in slow motion in the eyes of Andre. His feet came down gradually, about to fall on the perfectly placed fingers of his little girl.And then someone flew in from nowhere, hugging Illibio from behind."What?!!!" He screamed as he tumbled with his back to the ground, the perpetrator falling with him."Who are you, boy?!!!"Illibio managed to utter those low words as blood gushed out from his abdomen. He had b
Herald of Vengeance Scorpio Escapes Justice
Andre and Diego strode into the premises of the huge luxurious hotel, followed by angry predators armed with pistols. Each of them wore a black suit and a red tie, looking corporate. The security at the hotel could not deal with them, and soon they were in control of the entire building after a little bit of gunshot exchanges.While half of the group surrounded the entire length of the hotel, the rest of the predators came into the building with Andre and Diego.The reception was terrified to behold their sight and the people around fell on their faces in fear, in horror. The receptionist trembled as they approached closer."Good Evening, ma'am." Andre spoke in a calm manner, smiling towards the young woman who was visibly shaking."Good.... Evening... How may I help...""I really do need your help, you see." He cut her off as she could not finish her sentence with the fear in her heart. "I need to see a man, I heard he came in here today.""I will need... A name...""Scorpio." Diego
Herald of Vengeance Predators and Criminals
At the prime base, the kids decided to turn on the news. "Let us get a glimpse of normal world, shall we?" Andrew rose up to the occasion, bringing the television to life.Lyanna was pretty much glad with him being around, and Howard could see it in her. He could feel her slipping away slowly from the mournful state brought about by the death of their mother, and it made him spiteful."Sure, let us watch some news". Sandra supported, and Bell agreed as well.The world of the rectangular box came open and in it was the breaking headline news which had been waiting for them."Big Catastrophe In Caveliona!" It read. "Two Explosions In A Civilian Lodge, Entire City In Crisis!"The images that were displayed on the screen gave out nothing but the gift of disaster. A whole mountain height building had crumbled to the ground, it had the exact imprint of a terrorist attack. No sign of life could be detected from behind the screen, just helicopters flying around everywhere looking for survivo
Herald of Vengeance Old Faces Return Anew
Days passed, becoming weeks. Weeks evolved into months and Scorpio was still in the air among the clouds. No one had any information about him.The two boys, Andrew and Bell had been found by the police and returned to their parents. Yet their school could not help but notice the absence of three more students; Sandra, Lyanna and Howard.But since the school could not locate their parents either, it became hard to decide whether it was an issue of child abduction like the case of the two boys or just some unexpected family decisions.But the police did not choose to ignore it. They constantly interviewed the two boys, hoping for a lead in finding the other three. Some of them even tried to connect the case with that of the hotel explosions. "Do you remember seeing anything like this when you were abducted?" The officer asked, showing Bell a picture which contained the symbol of the Predators."No." The timid boy replied. "I don't remember anything at all.""You also do not remember an
Herald of Vengeance Meeting Albert Bradbury
"He is a top businessman with a deep rooted influence in the government of this country. With his help, we can waver this storm quite easily." Diego explained to Andre the kind of great help Albert Bradbury would be if he decided to assist the Predators. "He is such a top man in this game. I can't even believe that he has reached out to us. We have no history with him or his company. This is such a great luck!!"Andre thought about it for a while. He knew of the man called Adam Bradbury even if he had never seen him before. He knew he was a man of great wealth and deep influence. But something was not right, he could tell. Why would Albert Bradbury suddenly contact them out of the blue."He wants something in return." He muttered, to the hearing of Diego."Of course, he does. What could it be that we can't afford. It is better than losing everything.""He knows of our dillemma. That means our secret is longer safe. He surely has evidence against us, I'm sure he wants us to do somethin
Herald of Vengeance Hold My Hand
Albert Bradbury was on his phone when they met him. He seemed to be speaking to his some important person to him, and he kept the two men on hold for a while."Adam, listen to your mom!" He tried not to raise his voice. "The school is absolutely safe. Just take it in good faith, son. In the future, you will understand why I have to do this."Andre was able to hear the important bits of Albert's conversation even though the businessman did not seem to give them a ear into his discussion with his son.He dropped the phone as soon as he completed the last statement and turned around to face his guests who were now seated on a white soft long chairs before him."I was not sure that you would honour my invitation." Albert smiled as he found his seat a few distance from the two men."I was not sure that this was not a trap." Andre replied."I am not sure that it will not be eventually, a trap." Albert poured them both a drink. The table between them was filled with exotic drinks smeared wit
Herald of Vengeance A Chase
When Andre and Diego left Albert Bradbury's office, another figure creeped out of the shadows almost immediately. The figure walked up to Albert where he sat."Do you think they will accept your deal?" The figure took his seat in front of Albert at the same spot where the two men had been."They have no choice". Albert replied, "I have a way to make them run back to me."The man did not understand, his face went blank as he thought deep about Albert's words, trying to find an answer.When he could not reach the end of it, he had no choice but to voice out. "Did you not agree to give them time to think? What else did you do?" Albert exchanged gazes with him. "Just a little push, Scorpio. A little push. So they will not have to think for too long"."What exactly? I would like to know...""A little tip to the required agencies. A few minutes from now, the State Security Service would be right at their tail. I'm sure they will escape anyway. But then, they will not think twice before th
Herald of Vengeance Secrets and Deals
When morning came, Diego got off his bed as soon as the clock clicked six.He was not able to sleep anyway. He made his way immediately towards Andre's place. He needed to know what Andre had decided upon. If they were not going to accept Albert's deceitful help, then they should be already working on a better plan to escape this lurking tragedy.As soon as he opened the door to Andre's room, he found him standing against the wall, the same way he had been the night before.Andre did not sleep all through the night. He did not even move away from the same position. He had been like that all night, and from behind, Diego could feel the cold aura emanating from his stone body."What do you want to do?" Diego asked, eager to have a peak into Andre's thoughts. For someone who stayed awake all night, he must have decided on something already."We will accept Albert Bradbury's proposal".Andre's voice came at Diego like little particles of ice, cold yet scorching. The particles of ice lande

Consulting Lyanna
Lyanna was lying on her bed, slowly recovering from the old wounds."The doctor says you will be free to go in a few days."Beside her bed was Andrew Henshaw, comforting her to a good discharge. He had always been there for her in the absence of her father, more than her brother could ever even if he tried.Lyanna smiled back at him. He was such an angel, she thought."Andrew..." She muttered, craving his attention. "What is it..." He responded as soon as he lifted his head, seeing the look of displease spread across the lines of her face."I am sorry for what happened to your father..." She had always wanted to say that since the moment she discovered that her father and his friend were really the ones who had taken Henshaw's life back then. "I am sorry for everything my father did to your family..."He put a finger on her lips. "That is gone now. We are now here together. Friends. Together. Forever."His smile was enough to convince her to be happy. He was the best thing she had k
The Search
"I am sorry about this. I will make sure to find him...""That boy stole my money. He walked into my house and stole my money!!" Albert Bradbury was in a rage as he recounted what Howard Smith had done. The boy had the guts to infiltrate into his home and escape with an extreme amount of money."There is nowhere he can go or run to. And there is nothing he can do with that amount of money. We will find him, and we will recover your money." Diego assured, still trying to calm down the anger of Bradbury.Adam Bradbury sat at a far corner of the living room. He was still in shock and horror over what happened the night before. The knife placed on his throat, threatening to slash through. He could feel the red sores which developed along the lines of his neck.Also in shock was Adam's mother, Stella Bradbury. She was also struggling to fully understand what had happened the night before. Worse, she could not understand what was happening right now. Who were these strange men? And why had
Howard, Home Invader
The successful businessman, whose profits had gone on a whole new level of rise since the past few months was in his house, having a glass with his wife and his son, Adam Bradbury. Albert was filled with smiles and laughter, clinking his glass cup with that of his family, recounting his success story to them both, hoping that his son would learn a few things and take inspiration from his achievements."A man who wants success must be ready to ignore all attachments. You have to keep an open eye, always on focus. Only then can you see the tiniest opportunities the very moment they appear." He schooled, smiling.Albert had sent away his bodyguards and protectors from the room. He just wanted to have an alone time with his family since that rarely ever happened in their life. He felt tonight should be a special night, but faith would have it, he could not have picked a worse day than that particular day.Howard Smith peeped from beneath the curtains. He had found his way and outsmarted t
Sentences
"The case today. Accused, Andre... No last name. Versus the state"."This man has committed a horrible crime against our nation, against me and you. A heinous transgression upon a loyal citizen is a heinous transgression against the whole of us. He does not even have a lawyer, and that goes to show you how evil he has been proven. You know. I know. Everybody knows. No one wants to waste their time and integrity standing for him. In my opinion, he has already been condemned in the heart of the world, how balanced would it be if he were to be condemned by the hands of the law.""Mister Andre, after carefully considering the evidence put forward to the court and listening to the presentation of one lawyer, I believe this court has more than sufficient information to pass judgment on this case.""The court sentences Mister Andre to a long term of fifty years in prison. Meanwhile, if any other acts of crime or any disturbance of peace is detected from Mister Andre during tbe first thirty y
Across the Sea, Behind the Cells
"Where are you Andre, we are about to move". Guerrero said through the phone.Andre was just a few minutes left to the spot where they had agreed to meet. It was a seaside location, where illegal boats would usually set sail. Then the boat would travel a far distance up to the middle of the sea where a bigger ship would be waiting.Along with the passengers of the other smaller boats which had come from different part of the cities just for the same purpose of transmitting people in secret, the people in the boat would be drafted into the bigger ship and the boats would return to the seaside.This was also done at other parts of the world, in other countries. Each boat would know the right time to leave the seaside in order to meet the ship at the predetermined location, and Guerrero did not want to miss that time.Andre and his daughter were not the only person who were trying to leave Twillightoria. There were other people too, and unlike Andre who simply just asked for a favour, th
The Last Request
"Welcome, my friend! It is really pleasure to see your old face once more. Is this your beautiful daughter? May I say she looks just like her mother? Too much, I tell you. Too much."Guerrero welcomed Andre with smiles and hugs. He seemed really glad to have the honour of saving Andre and helping him out of the country."Everything is set, my friend. The boat is ready, the sailors are waiting. All that remains is for you to step into the boat and set sail to freedom."Andre understood his words well, but he was no longer anxious to leave at this point."Diego and my son are still behind. We need to rescue them first, only then can I go anywhere."Guerrero frowned. "That does not make any sense, Andre. Diego knew what he was walking into when he decided to help you in your foolish mission. I am sure he wants you to leave now that you can, you do not want to get caught too. Now that would be too much a loss for anyone of us to bear. And your son? I heard news about your son. He seems to
The Ambush
"I must say it is quite nice to see you again, Mr Andre. Anyone would have thought that the other day would be out last encounter." Richard Dengerberd said, holding a recording device up to his face, displaying it before Andre and kids present.Richard Dengerbard had been in there all along, waiting fkr Andre to come for his daughter. Andre thought he had died the other day with Minister Henshaw, but apparently he survived. He must have gotten to know of Andre's connection with the other day when Andre first visited the hospital.Then he was surely the one behind the police arrival. He was the one who informed the world of his existence and ruled out Scorpio's name as the one behind Henshaw's death.He had intentionally moved unconscious Lyanna into this VVIP room to serve as a bait for Andre. He had intentionally made himself her roommate, and he had recorded all the conversation between Andre, Howard and Andrew Henshaw."You must have thought that you escaped the law when you killed
Behind the Purple Veil
There was no more tricks to devise. He was now surrounded by the security men who came closer to know if there was a problem."What is the issue here?" One said."Nothing is wrong agent," Andre assured. "We are just having a little discussion, right?"The look on the agent's face drifted from a neutral perspective into an alarmed expression as sudden as a lightening would strike during a storm."Get your hands in the air!!" He reached for his gun, screaming at Andre.Before he could pull out his weapon, Ande had attacked first.The entire place became riddled with combat. Andre alone against the rest of them.But he had no chance in that open place. When the guns started firing, he could barely put up a fight as he placed a dead agent in the way of the bullets.The door of the section was right there, the agents standing right before it as the agents were now focused on him. To get to the door, he needed to get through them first. That was impossible."Shit! There is no way I'm gettin
Infiltrate The Infirmary
"I will go in myself and get her out." Andre proclaimed. "What?" That did not make sense and Diego could not allow it. "You cannot do that.""We don't have any other option.""Yes we do. I can get some of our men to do this.""No..." Andre refuted. "I don't want a collision with the security agency. The best way to do this is by a using one man to take out the children quietly.""They are trapped in that hospital because someone knows about us. Someone knows about you. Whoever it is, they are surely waiting for you to come. Even if we must do this, it does not have to be you." Diego expressed his concern fully. On normal days, Diego was not the kind of person who spoke with full words or who cared about other people's safety apart from his own true family. But his relationship with Andre was growing past the borders of partnership and once again looking like brothers, just like they were when they were younger. And just like their daughters were now."I will go." Diego volunteered,
