The vice President walked out of the white house briskly. There were several thoughts running in his head as to what was happening. He had expected Scorpio's call to find out if he had gotten the requirements to finalize their plan but there hasn't been a call since the theft of the Generator.

He greeted and waved at the soldiers standing at their assigned posts,a mode of commending them for their efforts and time spent there.

He got to his Limousine and opened the door,entering the backseat.

"Take me home." He ordered his driver and relaxed on the chair.

"Yes sir." A familiar voice, different from his driver's replied.

"Scorpio?" He asked.

"Yes Second citizen,what's up?" He replied.

"Why the hell haven't you contacted me?" The vice President growled.

"I'm in contact with you now so relax." He replied calmly.

"What have you done?" He asked.

"Hungh?"

"What have you done to Chelsea? Those kids just mentioned that she is in danger and they had to go after her" He yelled.

"Oh that? *Ch

    The President was seated in his office in deep thoughts. The whole crisis he was now entangled in was scaring him. He glanced at the clock and sighed,Peter had informed him that he would call in the next five hours regarding the rescue of Chelsea. Even his daughter had called and informed him that she was sending special agent Robin Khan and a friend of hers who was a metahuman. He wondered how many more Metahumans were out there and were unknown. This Gallagher kid was also one of the numerous no one knew,he only prayed and hoped that Peter would be able to bust Scorpio's efforts to use the Generator for his evil intentions. He was still deep in thoughts when the clock rang an alarm for four o clock. Angrily,he took his phone and dialed Peter's number. Immediately the latter picked it."Mr President,I was just about to call you." He said."Oh really? Why?" The older man asked with anger filling his voice."Sir,your granddaughter is now safe.

    "Wow,who could believed the hero is actually an evil freak?" Scorpio mused. He looked at the Vice President's face and noticed it was sober. "Second citizen,what's the issue?" He asked. "Those people RPG just mentioned were good people,they were innocent people." He replied. "Whoa,are you getting emotional? They're dead and I'm sure he killed them for a reason." He yelled. "I know but the pain I felt when their deaths were announced shook me." He said. "Oh God, emotions." Scorpio sighed and sat on a platform on the floor. "Okay,if we are going to blackmail him,how to we get evidence?" He asked. "Oh I've got the Video,it's in this SD card." RPG replied,pulling forth an SD card from his pocket. "Wow so let's play it and send it to him." The vice President said. "No,I know BossP when he was still in charge of the Black Ops and I witnessed him erasing all forms of evidence." He replied. "So why don't you want to play it,do you think he'll know?" Scorpio asked. "Actually yes. In

Both men greeted."Good morning,so how may I be of help?" He asked,knowing they only came to see him for something,interrogation."We just came by to say hello and know when our flight is due." Robin Khan said."That would be 12 noon,any other questions?" He finalized."No,that's all we came here for." Robin replied. He made to leave but Gallagher stopped him."Mr President,do you have any idea why your daughter was kidnapped?" He

    The vice president was in his room, reminiscing about the past few days,how his plan has worked but was messed up at the final minute. He swore that he'd kill Peter when he gets his hands on him but at the moment,there wasn't much to do. They were following the simple blackmail procedure as they had all planned.At first was the consecutive threats and messages with the video as the subject were sent and then they would eventually request for the Nanobots but in a way that would deliver the boys and the Nanobots to them so that they would be able to have them should in case they needed them again.His phone's chiming aroused him from his thoughts,he took his phone and checked the news alert,it was the headline that captivated him."FORMER HEALTH MINISTER ASSAULTED IN HIS RESIDENCE." He read. He had a deep,grimm smile on his face.After reading the article,he deduced only one thing, Armstrong knew about Peter or any of his shady business and someone else had dealt with him,it was obvio

    "Scorpio poisoned him." Kabala confirmed as they were done watching the security footage. They had contacted the doctor after Armstrong's death and accused him of sending his nurse to kill the former but he denied, saying he sent no nurse over. They watched the security footage of his office and confirmed he was only in his office,communicating with his wife via Skype. They watched the footage of the room and recognized Scorpio."How could I have been so stupid?" The Superintendent said in despair. He punched the wall violently and his hand began to bleed."See it's not your fault,you're not the first person to be deceived by that asshole." Dare comforted him."But I should have been more vigilant,how couldn't I have recognized that son of a bitch?" He wailed."Just relax sir, we'll find a way to take them down." Tom said. While the ruckus was going on,Lexi just sat in a corner,trying to piece things together. It was too much for him to handle but he had to handle it. He didn't know

    Lexi alighted from his bike just opposite the chicken Republic restaurant in Ikeja,he did so for security reasons. He wanted to ensure he wasn't being followed and if he was,he would spot the person. Also,he didn't really know the kind of person Bella was,he had just met her for a day and since then,they hadn't talked. He walked towards the restaurant and the security guard, noticing he had his facemask on and had sanitized his hands at the sanitizing booth,let him in. "Thanks." He appreciated and walked forwards. He could easily spot Bella,she was in a black jumpsuit, appropriate for a date and a meeting between two security operatives. "Hi." She waved from her table."Hey." He waved back and walked over to her then settled down."You came in earlier than I expected,did anything happen?" She asked with a glint of concern. It was obvious she noticed that glum look on his face,one that told anxiety and anger."Nothing." He replied indifferently and rested his arms on the table."So

    2004, MAINLAND HOSPITAL, MARYLAND,LAGOS STATE.The nurses wheeled the pregnant lady in on a stretcher,the sky that night was exceptionally dark and it rained heavily with mighty and loud thunder storms banging repeatedly. The woman kept her lips shut,trying to contain her screams,screams of the baby pushing against her womb,she knew it was time to deliver and the child wasn't joking either. Her husband entered into the hospital with a three year old Dare who had his favorite toy in hand, soon enough,they were inside the delivery room. It was there the doctor stepped in and they began the delivery."Daddy,is Mom going to be okay?" Dare asked his father who had an anxious look. The older man looked down at his son,smiled for a moment and returned his gaze on the ongoing process."Yes,if we hope and pray so." He replied. While that was going on,a huge commotion sounded on the roof of a building and down was Shadow who looked like he was just battered. The rain beat down on his dangerou

    "What's it boss?" Kabala asked.BossP sighed heavily and adjusted himself."I've been hiding something from you boys,and in talking about Dare and Lexi." He said.The two mentioned moved closer,paying closer attention."You remember that mission in South Africa? The one I instructed you to get Nanobots from a fugitive?" He asked."Yes,we remember. What's with it sir?" Lexi asked."And did you know what the Nanobots were meant for?""Yes,they were inspired by Nanobots created by the Russian feds to keep a track of their agents and control them should incase they try to betray,they can destroy them instantly so the feds here created these Nanobots for war criminals." Dare replied."Well...*sighs* this seems hard but the Nanobots weren't only meant for that. They were also created to activate the generator,the same generator that made all of you what you are." He explained."Okay,that seems shocking but what's hard about it?" "Well after the generator was deactivated or let me say,destr

The silence that came along the sadness made Chelsea who was expecting them,worry."Oh thank goodness you're all safe." She said and rushed to hug them. They were devoid of joy and she felt it,the coldness from them and the redness of their eyes made her realize something was wrong."What happened guys?" She asked. Suddenly,she realized someone wasn't present."Wait, where's Tom?" She asked. Rather than reply,their sobbing increased."No." Chelsea gasped in shock,she had understood the reason for their mood."No." She muttered and fell back,sadness enveloping her. "Don't tell me he's dead." She said amid tears. "He is." Dare expressed,facing the ceiling. "He's gone all because of me." He admitted and lay on the floor. "An innocent kid,I got him killed." He yelled and got up,his head filled with unstoppable rage."Where are you going to?" Ka

    Deji sat in his room,wondering what was going on with his life. It was barely a week after he had realized his powers and he was already exposed. He looked the screen of his phone,his jaw dropped in amazement with the headline."SUPPOSED VILLAIN TURNED HERO. A NEW TURN?" He knew they had mistaken him for Shadow and wished he could clarify things but he couldn't,he was just stuck there. Then his mind drifted to his brother,Dare. He wondered how he was faring. They hadn't contacted each other for over 24 hours. With a look of despair,he fell back and covered himself with the duvet. Suddenly a notification sounded and he checked it,if was a voice note from Dare. Eagerly he played it and it voiced."Hey bro,how're you doing? I just wanted to know if you, Mom,Dad and Bisola are alright. Well,I'm off on a mission now and I'm scared,I don't know if I'll make it back but I want you to do something for me,stay strong.

    Narrow escape

    Dare and Kabala landed on the outskirts of a small settlement, covered in dust. They both got up and scanned the environment,realizing that this was some forest. They wondered if Scorpio was still there and whether Stella was also with Scorpio or was in another location "So I guess we move then?" Dare sai "Yeah,let's just tread silently,I don't know this place." Kabala replied. Dare nodded in affirmation and they both walked on,fast and light "So Dare,how is your relationship with Chelsea?" Kabala asked. Dare sighed,this was the second time he had been asked the same question. He wondered if the gang was just teasing him or he was overthinking things. Never the less,he had to reply to his frien "We're not in a relationship." He replied stubbornl "I know but I heard she was mad at you yesterday,did you do anything wrong?" He aske "Not really. I was kind of jealous,she realized, overreacted and is mad at me." He replie "You were jealous of the white kid?" Kabala asked,forcing hims

    Scorpio sat before the shack they were hiding the ladies,deeply conversed in his thoughts. He was beginning to attain a height of power and he felt it. He only felt a bit intimidated by Shadow but that wasn't a problem for him,he was going to have his powers soon,it was only a matter of time.Then his thoughts drifted to the vice president,he laughed at the man's stupidity. He only wished he'd get the job over soon so he'll kill the Vice President and be the one to take the mantle of leadership for his dream,an army of Metahumans all under him,treating him as the king he deserves to be. Suddenly a change in the atmosphere aroused him from his thoughts and he sniffed the air. With a crooked smiled,he got up."They're here." ..."Hey guys,check this out." Dare informed Lexi and Tom who had just walked in. He, Kabala and BossP were all standing before the huge monitor,watching the breaking news."WE INTERRUPT THE FOLLOWING PROGRAM FOR BREAKING NEWSFollowing the controversial revelat

    It was morning and the guys had just awoken,they were actually in the SSS facilities since going to Lagos at the time they passed out was not an option. Kabala frowned and walked towards the door,only to see that BossP, Superintendent Charles Okoye,Mark, Bella and Robin Khan were all in a deep,silent mood,all not uttering a word. Following him were Dare,Lexi and Tom who all wondered why they were frowning."It's great to see you're up guys." BossP welcomed with a smile that soothed them but that didn't stop them from worrying,they all had a hunch that something terrible had happened and they weren't willing to talk to them about it. "Is something wrong?" Kabala asked. "Nothing compared to Shadow's appearance,it's just that the news and the occurrence yesterday has sparked a global topic, people are already going crazy and the president is under investigation." He replied. Their eyes widened as he mentioned the ongoing crisis,it had been due to the issue and probably Scorpio's spe

    .Dare was still in the office,going through the files. He had now seen the records of Shadow's previous attacks,including a massacre in Kenya in 2002,he shut the computer down and got up. He walked out of the office and bumped into Chelsea who was walking the Opposite way. "Hey,gotta watch out." He told her and made to leave. She held his arm and pulled him back,staring at him for a few seconds."Where you being mean?" She asked. He wanted to speak but it seemed the question had choked him. He found it hard to reply."Is it because Gallagher is here? That's why you've decided to not talk to me?" She asked. He sighed and faced upwards then down to her."See Chelsea,I just don't want to endanger you again. I know the hell I went through last week and I'm not ready to bear the same again." He replied. She stared at his black eyes and scoffed."You're lying,you just decided to ignore me because you think Gallagher is my boyfriend and you're also jealous." She said. He felt awkward havin

As he saw that his mother had left for work,he ran to his room and picked his phone up,then he dialed Dare's number and the latter picked up.He immediately requested for Polo's validation and the latter confirmed it,then he hung up."Polo." He whispered to his phone."Yes,Deji Adebayo?" Polo replied in a familiar voice and not the normal AI voice he expected."Hey Polo,I think I need your help." He said."Yes,if you would state your request." Polo replied."Okay,of recent,I realized I'm a Metahuman,sometimes my body just gets to a phantom state and I become some sort of Shadow. Of recent,I realized I could run faster than a car and also lift one up. Please,I really need your help." He said."Okay,I just completed the scan on your body. I've detected immense distribution of dark matter in your body and with your symptoms,it's deduced that you're a Metahuman." It replied."Wow,great." He said."But I strongly advice that you con

"I swear,I feel they're working together...Scorpio and this Shadow." Dare said."Probably." Stella whispered,still having that suspicion for BossP in her mind."So what's the next line of action?" Gallagher asked. They all stared at him and acted like he wasn't even there."I'll go run some checks on the computers again guys." Tom said and left the room. Just then,BossP walked in angrily.They all except for Gallagher saluted him and stood at ease."Thanks for the greetings but there's something more." He replied."What's it?" Lexi asked."The President called me and I'm afraid it's bad news." He said."Bad news,okay let's hear it." Stella said."*Sighs*,he's making an announcement addressing the issue. He's going to announce the existence of Metahumans." He stated."What? That's crazy." Lexi complained."I also said that but
