THE RISE OF JORDAN RIVERS THE CONFUSING ENEMY
“You have just been basted, boy! Your wings have been crippled already. Wake up from that dream.” De’Luka spoke.“No, De’Luka! I am not a criminal like you. I don’t belong here, and so I will be out before you know it.” Jordan confidently spoke.De’luka laughed bitterly with bits of sarcasm. “You did not just flaud one of the greatest feared persons in the syndicate, but you also murdered him, and the tape is out there for the world to see just what a devil you are. You signed your death certificate the minute you decided to go up against us. We are the law. We made the law, and nobody dared go against us. An idiot like you deserves an award for even trying, but that is not going to happen. You will get a crown but of thorns. Your course in this matter does not matter at all. You are going down, kid!” De’Luka hissed. He knew how well protected they were by high-ranking authorities. Jordan was nothing but
THE RISE OF JORDAN RIVERS PROJECT DEATH
“This man has been such a bad boy out there. He has caused a lot of pain to a lot of innocent people. He has robbed and even killed. I want you boys to make him experience all that pain he has inflicted on people.” Jordan spoke.De’Luka came out from Jordan’s back and stood a distance from Jordan and far from the men who seemed too warmed up by Jordan’s offer than De’Luka would have liked. “What in the devil’s name are you trying to do here, Jordan? Plotting murder in a jail? I will have…”“Have me arrested? Do you think you still have a say in this world?” Jordan spoke to the old fool.“It does not matter whether I have something to say or not, young man. The fact still remains that what you are doing is wrong. You are technically asking them to kill me! It is a crime, and you are committing it right in the police station! Has money turned you into a senseless fool or what? I don’t blame you because it must be so difficult for you to handle such money when you have never had a solid
THE RISE OF JORDAN RIVERS THERE IS DANGER
“Jordan!” Ana ran to Jordan the moment he appeared at the reception. They hugged tight, but not for long before they pulled away.“Are you okay?” Jordan asked her, holding her face while the officer proceeded ahead to have a talk with Jordan’s lawyer and Mr. Jonathan.“I am okay, you?” Then she smiled, shaking her head. “Ooh, well. What am I even asking? Are you even normal? Like, are you a real human?” She asked as she scanned Jordan. It was still a mystery how the man was alive. She wanted so much to know what the mystery behind what happened in front of her eyes was.“I know you have a lot of questions, but not here. Let us first hear what they have to say, and then we can talk at home. Is that okay?” He asked.His finger was still under her chin. If she had not witnessed some kind of dead body coming back to life, she would have melted already for having Jordan that close. But her eyes were busy scanning the flawless body that had been torn by bullets a while ago. The body had bee
THE RISE OF JORDAN RIVERS I AM NOT AN ORDINARY HUMAN
“Speak to us, Jordan. I am much more angry than anyone here. Are you a human being?” Mr. Jonathan spoke, and indeed, true to his words, he seemed like he was fighting hard to curb his shock, whose results were inutile.Jordan cleared his throat first. He knew he could not hide it anymore. Things had already blown out of proportion. No one could tell how the sensitive information that had just leaked out would affect his life from that moment on. One thing was for sure, though: Jordan needed to be wary of his life more than ever. “I am human, and that goes without a doubt. I suppose by now you all know my family background.” Jordan paused, looking around them to see if anyone was in the dark about his origin. Forget about his'savior' because he didn’t care one bit about leaving her ganging or floating. She didn’t deserve to know.And unfortunately, she happened to be the first to speak up. “Well, I don’t.” She snapped before Jordan could speak again, walking closer to them until she wa
THE RISE OF JORDAN RIVERS THE SAVIOR'S DEMAND
“Officer?” Jordan said while still glaring at the lady.“Yes, Jordan.” The officer responded."Jost, how did this lady save me so that I could know exactly how I should thank her? How is her video helpful in my case? It seems the lady is so thirsty for some applause.” He asked, now turning to the officer, while the lady rolled her eyes and murmured some curses.“Well, the video clearly shows that you did not hurt any innocent person. You even helped them flee from the scene, which is a good sign. As for the guards, we can argue that it was self-defense since they opened fire first despite you talking to them against it. And as for Mr. Osman, he shot you first, and not just one bullet but four of them. You have a case, Jordan, but we have so many valid, arguable points, and that is all thanks to this lady for taking that video. The greatest mistake she committed was uploading it.” Officer Adamson explained.Jordan turned to the lady. “Thank you, but next time, do not try to be a heroin
THE RISE OF JORDAN RIVERS I WANT TO BE USEFUL
Everything was settled in court and Jordan was free to leave with Ana and their new foe in sheep's clothing. The good part was that Maruela's cloak was a bit transparent, giving room for Jordan and Ana to be weary with her.---------------About an hour later, Jirdan arrived home with Ana and Mariela. The lady had managed to penetrate into Jordan and Ana. Her plan was working, and Jordan was already plotting his next move on the his next target."You can make yourself comfortable here. Ana and I will be in the study for a while." Jordan said when they were in the living room. "I am just new here. I will just get bored. I don't even know the way around the house. What will I do all alone here?" Mariela snapped. She wanted to stay as much close to them as possible so that she could be always in the know of what they were planning. Only then could she have valid and exhilarating information to make the call to her targets. "Exactly the point, Mariela. You are new. You are a stra
THE RISE OF JORDAN RIVERS WE PLAY ALONG
"It is me, boss Elias, Mariela!" Mariela spoke with fear. She was not sure how the man would react at the very start."Why are you calling? I heard your boss is dead. Are you looking for work?" The man spoke in a deep hoarse voice. He had heard the news. Everyone had. And everyone in their group was sick worried for their lives and safety. "No, boss. I am not in search of a job for I have already found myself one. However, you and I need to discuss my salary." Mariela spoke."You and I? You are not working for me. You and I have nothing to discuss." The man was getting pissed off. The lady seemed to be bluffing something that he did not quite understand. "Not directly, but I am." Mariela said as she looked up to make sure her conversation was safe. She spoke again when she was sure she was safe. "I have something interesting for you and the whole group."The man stopped smoking. He stood on his feet. "What are you talking about?" He asked."I know by now you know what happened to y
THE RISE OF JORDAN RIVERS TARGET THREE
"Have you received all the information I needed?" Jordan asked through the phone.Officer Adamson was perched in his seat in the middle of the night in his seat. Before him sat some files on the desk. He had been perusing through them one after another but returned to the first page when Jordan called. "Yes. Dominic Raul was once a police officer. He was sucked from office and jailed for corruption and fraud for two years. After prison he started the smuggling business . He is returning in the country in two days. His networth is 80 Trilion dollars." He spoke."80 Trillion." Jordan wondered out loud. The amount was mind-boggling. "I thought De'Luka was the richest." He said."It seems he has a lot of undercover properties that no one knows about." The officer said."What time is he arriving arriving? And where is his next stop after landing?" Jordan asked."He is arriving at 11 in the morning and then he is meeting the governor at a his private Villa at twelve." The Officer spoke."

THE GREAT ENDING OF A NOBODY
Three months later!Anticipation and enthusiasm surrounded the grand opening ceremony as it took place. In addition to officially opening The Rivers Group of Martial Arts' newest location, the ribbon-cutting ceremony signified the end of a journey that had passed through darkness and emerged into the light of mutual empowerment and progress.Jordan stood proudly in front of the assembly and spoke to them. "Our slogan stands true today as it did when we started: The Rivers Group of Martial Arts is not just a school to teach martial arts, but a community for empowerment and growth, both as a community and individually." His statements reverberated with authenticity, capturing the spirit of their group's objective."And so, ladies and gentlemen, here I present to you the last, as of now, branch of The Rivers Group of Martial Arts." Jordan handed the scissors to Ana, symbolizing the transition from the shadows of the past to the bright possibilities of the future. As Ana cut the ribbon, t

THE ASTONISHING BRAVERY
The following day, Ana woke up in his old home, the De’luka mansion. Ricotchetting her eyes. Memories lingered—a combo of both good and bad memories. She had slept off there with her entire crew to prepare for the burial.“Are you ready? You can stay back if you want. I will bring the body here.” Jordan said, giving her a morning hug after strolling into her room.Ana sampled everything that Jordan’s body was bleeding on her—the solace, the heat, the comfort. Everything. She appreciated his comfort and his gesture. She then pulled away, and Jordan kept her hands in his. “I appreciate this, Jordan, but I have to do this.”“Are you really sure?” Jordan emphasized."Come on, Jordan! Do I look like I am showing signs of a mental breakdown or something? I am perfect. Besides, you and I know the story behind this man. I'm all good.” She said.Jordan nodded his head. “Alright. I never said that you were about to break down, by the way. I know you are strong. Even more than I am.”‘Yeah, yeah

BAD NEWS
“I guess so. We can all say that.” The officer affirmed.A few chatters filled the room for a long time. Who would have thought that a once vigilante group could be saluted by the government, huh?Jordan cleared his voice, speaking to the officer, although everyone was keen. “Whether the government recognizes me or not, I don’t care. But I know how much you loved your job. I also know that you like it, and it is my hope that you have no regrets whatsoever for those few days that you and your boys have been members of this family. I want you to know that I cannot hold you back. If they want to give you back your position, please don’t feel obliged to remain with us. You deserve that position.”Officer Adamson looked at Jordan with so much appreciation and gratitude. “Regrets? What is there to regret about being part of this great community, Jordan? I felt honored that I was lucky to have a chance to meet you all and to partake in your just missions. But, like you said, I feel the need

THE PROGRESS OF THE GROUP
The group, which had now become a family, pushed itself into the audacious project of opening martial arts schools in the following weeks, their unwavering dedication transforming dreams into concrete accomplishments. With incredible vigor, resolve, and a sense of purpose that permeated each movement they took, Jordan's vision came to life in that brightly illuminated room.Securing a central location for their flagship martial arts school was the crew's initial action. They converted a large warehouse, which had previously served as a symbol of corruption, into a center for empowerment, training, and discipline after extensive reconnaissance and planning sessions. When they held their first courses, the sound of kicks and swishing-trained moves filled the air inside those walls.With her excellent organizational abilities, Sarah oversaw the administrative side, making sure that all licenses, registrations, and marketing campaigns were completed. She proved to be the mainstay of the o

THE FATE OF THE GROUP
As the soft hues of morning began to seep through the windows, the room, once ablaze with celebration, now held a serene stillness. Jordan and his crew, draped in the comforting shadows of a night well spent, found themselves resting on makeshift seats, their weariness a testament to the battles fought and won.The sunlight painted a gentle tableau, revealing the subtle lines of fatigue etched on each face. Yet, amidst the quietude, a sense of unity prevailed. Jordan, observing the camaraderie that had evolved in the past hours, felt a renewed purpose bubbling within him. This wasn't just a crew; they were a band of individuals who had weathered storms together and emerged stronger.Looking at Major, he knew that he had a question to tackle. They looked somehow confused about what to do next, and he knew he owed them an explanation, at least for the sake of their sanity. He remembered how he and Major’s group became participants. Initially, they were just his hired bodyguards, but ove

CELEBRATING VICTORY
‘‘Huuu!” Noises crackled in the house of Jordan as the members heaved out their tiredness, sampled in the aura of victory, and rested their weapons on the tables as they took their seats. It was almost 4 in the morning, but the night echoed with sounds for the next few hours. Their faces were smeared with soot and sweat from the tough battle they had fought and, by God’s grace, won.“This calls for a big celebration!” Jordan spoke, pulling Ana beside him as he rested on his signature seat of authority. “Mariela? Could you make us something delicious for us?”Mariela nodded in agreement. “After emerging triumphant, you all deserve a special treat. I had made arrangements before we left. I will be back in a sec.”They all made sweet sounds of appreciation that sent Mariela off to the kitchen with a smile on her face.Soon enough, she was making hasty back-and-forth tours to and from the kitchen with trays of mouthwatering shawarmas. Then the drinks followed, and everyone wanted nothing

THE SENSE OF VICTORY
As Jordan and his group crouched in the shadows, staring at the far-off warehouse where the covert conflict had taken place, the night sky hung thick with an oppressive still. An overwhelming feeling of unease permeated the air as they anticipated reaching the pinnacle of their unwavering quest for justice.Abruptly, a menacing gleam illuminated the horizon, illuminating Jordan's team members' features with elongated shadows. From the warehouse, flames shot up, licking the darkness with an abysmal embrace. The blast echoed through the still air like a mighty cry of vengeance.Jordan clinched his hands and tensed his jaw, watching the conflagration with a bleak determination mixed with joy. The warehouse collapsed under the weight of its own secrets; it had previously been a center of corruption and dishonesty. His transgressors were being burned into charred souls. He could imagine them weeping in pain as the wildfire mercilessly devoured them.Jordan whispered, "That's it," his voice

NO DEAL
“Names? What names, Jordan?” Mr. Elias asked in confusion.Jordan, with a steely gaze, had no time to waste. He needed to get to the heart of the issue as fast as he could. His voice was firm as he spoke. "The names of your supporters. The high-ranking officials who are protecting."The alliance members exchanged uneasy glances, a palpable scent of impending doom slapping at their nostrils. How could they comply with Jordan's request? Revealing the identities of those wielding formidable power felt like signing their own death warrants. And death was what they were trying to escape by all means. How could they negotiate for survival and sell themselves to the devil in the same way?“Jordan, please understand that we cannot do that. It is too dangerous for us. Besides, why do you want the names?” Mr. Elias replied, attempting to mask the tension in his voice.Jordan's eyes narrowed, his frustration bubbling beneath the surface. "I need those names to expose the corruption that is eatin

NEGOTIATIONS
Jordan looked at Elias and his meanness. He could read through their minds. He knew exactly what they wanted. And he loved their stupidity.Elias gazed at Jordan and spoke with a stern voice without a single tinge of wavering in it. “You are wiser than this, Jordan. I know you know what I mean.”Jordan shook his head and read a memo that said, ‘I know, but I want to hear that crap from your stinking mouth itself’! “No! Please enlighten me, Elias! I might be getting carried away.” Jodan spoke.Elias even managed to smirk, even though he could not tell whether Jordan was toying with his mind or not. He spoke. "Jordan, all I am suggesting is that we can settle this amicably. You don’t have to betray your noble parents by becoming a bloody murderer. Well, if it is revenge that you want, your parents are gone, and you can’t bring them back. Don’t even kill us. I have got something that will surely interest you."Jordan, unmoved, eyed Elias with a steely gaze, his expression portraying no
