Jack was driving them back home. Reece was completely Mute whilst Jack was driving, He seemed to be contemplating on what step to take next. “Stop when you reach the next bus stop” He suddenly said.
“Is something the issue Boss” Jack asked. “I need to go somewhere alone. Return home right away, I'll be back soon ” Reece replied. Jack sighed and continued driving. He soon stopped when he reached a bus stop.
Jack alighted from the vehicle and watched as Reece got in and drove away. He took his seat and waited for a bus. Not long after, a bus arrived.
Reece was driving through the town heading back for the main city. He stared at the rear mirror and noticed a car following him. “Is that Mr Jacob's car” He asked himself and took a closer look at the car.
He slowed down a bit trying to make the car meet up and overtake him. The car sped up and ran into his trunk instead. Reece jumped in fear trying to get control of his car back, He Finally did and stared back at the car.
“ it's Mr Jacob's men. What do they want with me” He thought to himself. The car rammed into him once again. “Is he trying to get rid of me. He must be doing so. I must call Mia at one" Reece exclaimed. He fumbles around searching for his cellphone.
Jacob's men hasn't backed down and were still chasing and ramming into Reece's vehicle.
Reece finally got hold of his phone and went through it quickly searching for his wife's line, A call suddenly came through.
It was Jacob calling. “Why is he calling now!?” Reece yelled. He picked the call up. “What in the world is going on sir. Your men are after me, what do they want!?” Reece cried out.
“Oh my men. You don't have to worry about them, I just sent them to kill you” Jacob replied. Reece's jaw dropped in shock. “What you should be worried about is your Wife and child. Cause once my men are done with you there, they're going to die next” Jacob stated.
“ Don't you dare touch my family. I would kill you myself if you lay a single hand on them” Reece yelled effortlessly but Jacob already ended the call. “I need to call Jack” Reece said and tried going through his contact.
His vehicle was rammed into again and his phone fell off his hand. Another vehicle had showed up and it was a truck. The force exerted by the truck was much and Reece was slowly loosing control of the vehicle.
The truck went full force into Reece's car and the car tumbled, rolling over and over. The car rolled into a huge tree and it instantly went ablaze. The men all stopped and came out of the car and watched as the car burned.
One of the men reached for his phone and dialed a number. “Hello, there's been an accident and someone's dying. Track This phone and you'll find the scene” he said and threw the phone at the burning car.
“You called the cops?” another man asked in confusion. “Yes, The Boss asked me to” The man replied. “Then we should leave immediately and head to the final target” The man stated. They all got in the vehicles and left the scene.
*Back at Reece's Mansion*
Jack had arrived at the mansion and went in to rest a bit. He turned on the TV hours later to see the incident first. “Someone had and accident and burned to death?. That must have been an awful way to pass on” He said not paying much attention to the details.
He suddenly expressed shock when the reporter mentioned Reece's Name. Jack stared closely at the news and realized it was indeed his boss, Reece.
Jack dashed out of the room and headed for the mansion. He reached the living room to meet Reece's Wife , Mia watching the tv. “Mam, we need to leave here immediately ” He said breathing heavily.
Mia stared at him in confusion. “Why do we need to leave. Is something wrong Jack ” She asked. The news was suddenly presented on the tv too. Mia watched closely and yelled in shock when she saw who was involved in the incident.
“What is going on Jack. Where is Reece!?” She screamed. “We really need to leave right now mam. The sooner we do the better it would be for us” Jack said restlessly. Mia seemed to have lost her cool. She was breathing heavily and trying to put together all that is going on.
The news seemed to have break her down immensely as he was completely silent. “Mam, we're running out of time ” Jack cried out but still didn't get a response from Mia. A gunshot was suddenly heard outside.
Mia stared at Jack who was quite spooked too. “Oh no, they're here already !” He exclaimed. “Who Is here. Did I just hear a gunshot ” Mia asked. “Jacob's men. They're probably responsible for what happened to the boss too. You need to leave with Ryan this instant ” Jack stated.
More gunshots were heard outside the mansion yet again. Mia stood still completely contemplating on what to do next. She turned to her son, “Ryan. Go hide yourself in the room. Do not come out until I come for you. Do You understand ”
Ryan nodded innocently and left the living room. “What are you doing ma. You still have enough time to make it out of here” Jack asked. “ I'm not going anywhere Jack, I'll not let them ruin everything we've worked so hard for” Mia replied.
She reached for a gun under the chair and headed out the door. Jack took a deep breath and went with her.
Time flew by and Ryan was still alone locked up in the secret room. He felt nauseous as the temperature in the room rose greatly. Ryan passed out after some while and woke up the next day. He unlocked the door and pushed it open. Ryan was extremely confused to see most of the house damaged beyond repair. It seemed the house was burned up, luckily the secret room Ryan hid in was built specifically to resist fire. That pointed out why he felt so hot in the room. Ryan shut the door and moved around. Things were burnt beyond recognition for him. “Mom, Mr Jack?” He called out as he moved around the house. He paused when he heard police sirens approaching the house. Tons of police vehicles and ambulances emerged in front of the damaged mansion. Ryan peeped out to see the cops and quickly ran away through the back door. He hid in the bushes and stared from safe distance. The police men and medics set to work immediately. The corpses were lifted by the medics. Ryan recognized his mother'
Ryan roamed around in the cold and dangerous city. He walked around and asked people if they could recognize his father and no one seemed to know him. Few people offered to help and report the issue to the police but he opposer strongly and ran off each time.The sun was out and Ryan was getting really tired now. He hasn't eaten since daybreak. “I need to eat something soon. I'm getting tired” He mumbled and continued walking around. He soon spotted a supermarket. Overwhelmed by hunger, Ryan didn't think twice before heading into the supermarket . He walked around staring at the huge shelves and stocks all arranged around the supermarket.“There are lot of foods here. I bet they won't mind of I grabbed some?” Ryan mumbled and picked a doughnut and Milk. He slowly ate the doughnut, he soon finished it up and gulped some milk.“What in the world are you doing thief!” A voice suddenly yelled from behind him. Ryan turned around to see one of the workers. “I didn't steal it sir. I took i
One of the men grabbed Ryan and picked him up easily. “Let go of me!. Let go!” Ryan said fighting to free himself from the fearsome grip. The Man's strength exceeded Ryan's greatly and he stood no chance. “quit struggling little one. We just want to have a few words with you” The man said and chuckled. “what do you want from me. Let me go, I have no money you could steal from me” Ryan said bluntly. “Oh, he has no money. What do we do with him boss” The man asked another man who had been watching them from a corner. “ we'll sell him off or something. We didn't even need to go hunting today before a prey was caught. It's a blessing ” The boss said and chuckled. The men all laughed loudly. “Please, you need to let me go. I need to find my father” Ryan said with a tearful eye. “i pretty much care less about that. You're mine now and you're going to make me some money ” The boss stated. The men dragged Ryan along as they headed for a house near the road. They entered the house and Ryan
Ryan could not believe his eyes when the two strangers turned out to be teenagers who looked a bit older than him. They were two boys “ you're teenagers. Why are you living here alone” Ryan asked.“ I'm Brian and this is my twin brother, Blake” He replied. “Yeah nice to meet you..” Blake mumbled and took his seat. “ I'm Ryan. Thank you saving me back there” Ryan said meekly. “You should thank him. He forced me to come with him after he spotted the men abducting you” Blake stated. Ryan gulped and fumbled to seat on a Rusty chair. “So, why are you living alone here?” He asked. “Why don't you tell us what got you involved with those old farts first ” Brian asked. “ I met them when I was looking for someone ” Ryan replied. “And who might that be?” Brian asked.“My father. He left home and some men attacked our house and murdered everyone. My mom protected me and I need to find my father alone now” Ryan replied. “Oh, that's quite sad” Brian mumbled. “How are you going to find him. Do yo
Ryan slowly opened his eyes and sat up. He stared around the room and couldn't spot Brian and his brother. “Where did they go..” He mumbled. Ryan tried laying back down but the rays from the sun was so blinding that he had to sit up back. “ I'm so hungry..” He said and stood up. He walked around a bit. He decided to head down and take a look around the house. The house was very old and pretty much empty. It seemed the house had been abandoned for a very long time. The back door suddenly opened and it was Brian and Blake. “ What are you doing ” Blake asked staring at him suspiciously. “Oh, I woke up and couldn't find you. Decided to take a walk around ” Ryan replied. “Oh, okay” Blake mumbled. “You should be careful about that. There are dangerous objects laying around everywhere ” Brian stated. Ryan gulped and turned back upstairs. The three reached the room and settled down. “Where did you both go ” Ryan asked after noticing the lads came in with bags. “We went shopping ” Brian re
Ryan watched in confusion as the the men all argued on who to take him away. “Who are you and what business do you Have with the boy” Noel asked the men. “ I'm big Jay. He's my.. Nephew !. Yes Nephew ” The boss replied. “ He's your Nephew ? ” Noel asked. “Yes. You can clearly see we look alike” Big Jay said smiling. “You don't look alike to me” Noel opposed. “That doesn't matter. I'll take my nephew now and we'll go back home and have a long talk” Big Jay said and tried leaving. “You can't leave. We're not done here” Noel said and stopped him. Big Jay turned to him angrily. “What do you want!?” He exclaimed. “The cops want him. Wait, He's your Nephew and you don't know he's looking for his Father?” Noel asked and stared at him suspiciously. “Of course I do. You didn't ask us” Big Jay replied chuckling nervously. “Oh I guess I didn't. But, you cannot still leave with him yet. You can talk to the Police when they arrive ” Noel stated. “We do not have time for that Gentleman. We will
Kendrick stared at Ryan who was completely silent as they drove to the police station. “Why are you roaming around the street. Are you lost?” He asked. Ryan stared at him without uttering a word. “You can talk to me. You don't need to be scared” Kendrick added. Ryan still wasn't replying. Kendrick sighed. He gave up and continued driving. They soon reached the police station and Ryan was led in. Ryan sat on a chair and waited a while before he was taken to an office. An officer in his mid thirties was to question him. “So, you were brought here for stealing from a shop?” He asked. Ryan didn't reply but stared at the officer emotionlessly. “You also Told the worker at the supermarket that you were looking for your father. Would you mind telling who you really are and how your father got lost?” The officer asked but still didn't get a response from Ryan.“ I'm going to need you to give me some answers young man..” The officer stated. Ryan still wasn't interested in talking to him.
Kendrick led Ryan to a new office. “Who are we here to see?” Ryan asked as they walked in. “The chief” Kendrick whispered. They walked in and took their seats. “So this is the boy?” The huge man on the table asked. “Yes sir. I've interrogated him too” Kendrick replied. “So, what is going on here” The chief asked. “He is looking for his father. I suggest we enroll him in the program till we find the father” Kendrick replied. “What!. You know that's not how it works Ken” The chief Opposed. “Yes sir but we..” Kendrick paused and stared at Ryan's face. He stood up, “Can I talk to you outside chief” he asked. The chief stood up and they both left leaving only Ryan in the office. Kendrick shut the door as soon as the Chief came out.“We don't know how long it will take to find his father. We probably might not even find him sir” Kendrick stated. “If he says he's looking for his father. We'll just investigate the case further and figure out where the father is” The Chief Opposed. “I alre
“You cannot stay here till you're eligible to leave. That's absurd ” Ryan opposed him. Cole didn't say anything but stared at him. “Alright, what if..I find us somewhere to stay” Ryan asked. “Somewhere to stay?. You don't have anywhere to stay yet and you want to leave?” Cole asked. “I Will figure out everything later. All I have to do is leave this place first” Ryan replied. “Fine..” Cole said. “So, you'll come with me?” Ryan asked meekly. “I don't think it's a good idea. How are we going to survive out there. We cannot also hide from the police forever. They'll probably find us as soon as we leave” Cole stated. “I have friends who were just like us. They're doing great on their own now. We can do it too” Ryan stated. Cole was quite for a while, he was pondering on what to say. “Fine.. I'll come with you. But don't say I didn't try to stop you when they bring us back here” He said. “Yes!” Ryan said brightly. “And the plan...” Cole said and paused. Ryan stared at him waiting for hi
Time stood still completely in a blink of an eye. Ryan thought he heard wrong and asked again. “You stayed here for five weeks.. right ..” He muttered knowing what the answer was already, he didn't just want to accept it yet. “I just said Five years. I've been here for five years ” Cole stated. Ryan's heart was beginning to throb too hard. “ You've been here for years. How is that possible. What is going on here!?” He exclaimed. Coke stared at him in confusion. “Are you annoyed I haven't stayed long enough. I know some people that have been here for ten years you know...” He stated. Ryan almost went crazy. He instantly stood up and dashed out of the room. “Hey, where's are you going. I'll come with you” Cole said and stood up to chase after him. “Do whatever you want. I need to leave here immediately!” Ryan said fuming towards the door. The door suddenly swung open and They stopped. It was the Young man From the office, Mr Derris. Derris stared down at Ryan and Cole. “Where were
