My uncle Ben, was the oldest in the family, he is my Dad's elder brother, he was a military man, he had his way of installing fear in the hearts and minds of people. My dad and I were never scared of him and he hated that, he hated that about my Dad too. I was only a kid when my parents died, so he raised me, until I rebelled when I was nineteen, I rebelled and got accepted into the Dark Dragon. "You should go Tony; you know how your uncle hates when we have visitors over, right?” My aunt added. "Visitors, visitors uhn, I see I am now a guest in the house my father built, anyways no qualms it seems I fail to realise that it’s no longer my home anymore.” I said as I dropped my niece and patted her head. "They said we aren’t family Grace.” I told her, my niece Grace, she looked so confused as she’s just five. “Damien, don't say that.” My aunt said trying to make it look different than it is. "Please aunt, anyways it’s all behind me, I have no reason to be holding any grief, I mig
Royal Pain was devastated and confused about where to start from. I remember that one of the reasons he had joined Dark Dragon was to help his sister have a better life. They were both orphans and he is both the father figure and mother figure in her life although he was not always around but he made special effort to do everything for his sister. My phone started to ring. I looked at it briefly and it was Miss Sarah, I wondered what she wanted. "Excuse me guys, I have to take this.” I said as I briefly excused myself outside of Trina’s room, I took the phone. "Hello Miss Sarah.” "Tony where are you, I hope I am not disturbing you.” Sarah asked casually. "No, is anything the problem?” I wondered why she called. "Well I really need your help, today is one of my ex-classmate birthdays, she’s a very close friend of mine, she’s having a quiet party with just a few friends." "I am one of them and you know I can’t really go out alone, because of everything that has been happening r
“What is it John?” I asked. "The doctors just told me it’s today.” He replied. "What is today?” I asked with utter confusion. "My son, my son’s surgery is today. I just received a call from my wife and she told me that the doctors just confirmed that they will be taking him in for the surgery, I am truly nervous.” John added. "Today, wow, that’s fast. Don’t be scared, everything is going to be fine.” I added. "I hope so but I am still so scared, I don’t think I can handle it alone. I feel scared and you are the only person I had told what I was going through who I feel I can turn to for help, can you please come to the hospital this evening.” He added. I was baffled by his request and at the same time I completely understood him. I had a lot to do today but instead I am at a party. I didn’t really want to be here, I was just here for Sarah and on the other hand I have to catch up with the investigations of Pain’s sister kidnapping, it was just crazy. Then I started to scout th
The Lotus Group had two faces, first the face they show to the outside world and the other one that can only be seen with an opened eye. In other words, they are the worst set of people to deal with because, many won’t be on your side.Trina and Pain had tied up the guy they had put in the trunk, under the garage of Trina’s house, they had also blind folded him. "Did you send the message to him?” Pain asked Trina. "Yes I just did, I hope he sees it on time, he might still be busy.” Trina replied. "Should we start?” Pain asked anxiously as the tension was getting to him. "Let’s wait for him, in the main time let me get my toy case ready just in case it's needed.” Trina replied as the man shook in fear. "This should not be too difficult.” Pain let out. I got to Sarah’s house, it was some minutes to 5pm in the evening. I carried her in as she still couldn’t walk properly. "What happened to her?” The head security asked. "I am fine, I just sprained my leg a little, so Tony is hel
I called Trina several times but she wasn’t answering, I then decided to call Pain but he wasn’t answering either. I got to Trina’s house some minutes past 9pm. I knocked on the door upon my arrival and Trina opened up. "Tony, we were waiting for you, what happened?” Trina asked. "You know what never mind, Pain is already trying to get him to talk, but I am afraid he will kill him.” Trina said, interrupting before I could respond. “I tried to tell Pain to calm down, but he beat the guy into a pulp and I doubt the guy can even talk properly.” Trina added."Where are they now?” I asked a little bit out of breath. Trina led me to her garage and I saw Pain holding a hammer and nail. "Now look, you still don’t want to talk, I will nail your hand to this table if you don’t tell me where they are keeping the girls!” Pain shouted. The guy was already bleeding from the head and mouth, it looked like Pain had really beaten him up, Pain was so concentrated that he didn’t even realize when
"Is there any problem ma’am?” Phillippe shouted. Trina turned and saw him, I knew he had seen her before but I hoped he wouldn’t recognise her. She was wearing a disguise but what if he still recognises her. "Are you deaf, I am asking you, what are you doing here?” He asked further. “I am just asking for directions sir, I am looking for my boyfriend’s house and he said it's somewhere around here.” Trina said, trying not to show fear and play the part good enough. "Well, does this place look like your boyfriend’s house? Didn’t they tell you not to wonder about a street alone? You are so young and pretty, are you alone?” Phillippe asked, looking around if anyone was there. He started to lean forward towards Trina, Trina moved backwards acting shy and naïve. "Yes sir I am alone; I don’t know if I will ever find my boyfriend's house now.” She added. "It’s, ok it's ok, just come with us, we will take care of you till tomorrow then you can go back home once it's dawn." Trina knew th
Phillippe stared at me in shock. "You again, what are you doing here?” Philippe shouted angrily. “I see now, now I know why that girl looked familiar, she was with you that day wasn’t she?” "Why are you guys always trying to ruin things for me, what does this even have to do with you?” He was irritated by the whole scenario. I remained silent looking at him disgusted. "What does this have to do with me? Taking innocent girls away from their homes and family, to sell to strangers who might use them as sex slaves, house maids and all sorts has nothing to do with me?” I asked, even more disgusted as he was trying to play innocent. "Is your family here? Are any of your relatives here? No, so what the heck is your problem? Do you think you can get me like you did the other time? Look, the other time I was not prepared but this time, you are outnumbered, just leave while you still can walk.” He said, smirking. I ran straight to him and landed a very big punch on his nose. "You basta
I had the thought of picking my phone to dial Paula’s number. I should have really taken my own advice by not getting attached to anyone but what can I do in this case. I am not even this attached to my real family members, but John was really good to me when I was still Dumebi having not a single clue to who I was, if I had any family or where I came from. He was really there to help me through my difficult times with Uloma and her family, so why wouldn’t I do this much for him. I stopped hesitating and picked up my phone, I dialled Paula’s number and she responded quickly. "Hey Paula I am really sorry to disturb you but I really need to talk to you.” I said as I continued to drive back home. "What time would you be free, can you come to my house?” I added. "Is everything ok, this one that the great Tony needs my help?” "Please just come over and I will explain it to you.” I said and immediately hung up the call.Lizzy got to the office to realise that John was not there, she t
