OPPOSITES Mysteries
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
OPPOSITES A new evil
"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
OPPOSITES A newer creature
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
OPPOSITES Flashbacks
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

CIA HEADQUARTERS,LAGOS STATE."So right now,we've got two enemies." Chelsea reasoned. The guys had returned and the turn of events wasn't news to anyone there. "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

Deji was in the living room, staring outside the window. 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
OPPOSITES Time to be a hero
.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
OPPOSITES Compromised
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
