He maneuvered his way through the cars and finally he had the post office in sight.

They arrived at the post office in a hurry. Nathan quickly parked the car at a safe distance from the post office and the three of them quickly got out.

"Okay guys, let's make this quick and discreet," Nathan said as they approached the post office. "We don't want to startle the stalker and make him run."

"Right, we need to be careful," Cayden added. "We want to apprehend him diplomatically plus I don’t have the strength to chase anyone."

“That’s him,” Nicholas said, pointing at someone matching the stalker's description standing at the counter. “She’s doing just as you said, delaying him.”

“Oops,” Cayden said, as he saw the stalker turning around. “Now he’s leaving.”

Nathan, Cayden, and Nicholas approached him and quickly moved in to position themselves around the stalker, making sure that he wouldn't be able to make a run for it.

"Excuse me sir," Nathan said, making the move, trying to sound as casua

    “Literally, some men tried to break into the house. I just checked from the space room.” Nicholas said.“This has to be a joke,” Nathan said, jumping to his feet.“Come see for yourself,” Cayden said, leading the way up.“What space room are you guys talking about?” Cayden asked, confused, and followed hastily behind Nathan, up the stairs.Nathan pushed Nicholas away slightly as he was punching in the passcode, and used the eye scanner to open the door. “Sorry man,” He said, hastily making his way in.“Show me,” Nathan said.Cayden reached the space room and turned to a large screen which displayed the motion images recorded live by every camera outside the house.Next to it was another screen, one that displayed the live recording inside of the house.In the first screen were different sections for each camera. The screen was touch-screen so Nicholas navigated and clicked on the section that displayed their doorstep.He dragged the progress bar backwards to about three hours back a

    They hurried down the stairs and then to the door.“Don’t touch anything on the walls,” Nathan said to cayden as they ran.Nicholas opened the door and hurried out.They all stood outside of the house, watching as the men got out of their van. The experts were dressed in protective gear, with their faces partially obscured by visors. They carried large black cases, which apparently contained all the equipment they would need to disarm the bombs.Nathan swung his hands in the air, waving to the men as they began approaching.“Wait there,” he shouted.The men halted abruptly, looking around for any signs of danger.Nathan and the boys marched to the men.Nathan approached the lead expert, a man with broad shoulders and a serious expression. "Good morning," he said, extending a hand. "I'm Nathan. “The expert in the middle shook Nathan's hand and introduced himself as Thomas. “Good day.We are from Mr. Swack.”“Okay, the bomb specialists, I suppose,” Nathan said. “Actually, we stopped yo

    ************It was a beautiful day in Galewood College, the sun was shining and the air was filled with the sweet fragrance of spring flowers.The school was buzzing with activity as students hurried from one class to another.Nathan, Cayden and Nicholas were walking down the hall to their history class.“It’s a new lecturer that’s going to be taking us history in class today,” Cayden said.“How do you know?” Nicholas asked.“Well, ..the news of a new history teacher has been on for a while so I guessed it would be her,” Cayden replied.“Her?” Nathan asked.“Yeah.. I heard the teacher is a female,” Cayden said.“Well let’s just hope she’s not as boring as the old bald dude,” Nathan said.“That’s if she is the one lecturing us today,” Nicholas added.They got to the hall and entered, trying to cause as little distraction as possible.“It’s a female,” Nathan whispered as they made their way to their usual sitting position, at the back. Luckily, no one had sat down there.“And she has a

    Nicholas left for the drinks.Nathan looked at Cayden and found that he was staring into a corner of the cafeteria. He traced his gaze to a table where Pedro, Alex and some other of his basketball teammates and friends were seated.“You should go talk to them,” Natnan said.“Yeah, I should,” Cayden said, pulling his chair backward. He got up and walked towards the table.“Hey, what’s up guys?” Cayden asked lending out his arm for a handshake to all the boys starting from Alex.“I’m good, brother,” Alex said, receiving Cayden’s palm.Cayden went on to shake all the boys up to Pedro who completely ignored his outstretched arm.“I’m alright,” Pedro said, indifferently.“You sure?” Cayden asked, curiosity and shock playing on his face.“Yeah, totally,” Pedro said.Cayden looked at him confusedly, and then reached for a seat and sat.“So what’s been happening guys?” Cayden asked, trying to develop a topic of discussion.“Nothing much,” Alex said. “We were thinking of organizing a friendly

    Slowly, he applied the brakes as he arrived at his garage and the car jerked to a stop.“Nicholas, we’re checking the area.” Nathan said.They all alighted and Cayden walked straight into the house. Nicholas turned to Nathan as if seeking answers to Cayden’s behavior.“I’ll check the meadows, you check the windows,” Nathan said.“Woah.. that kind of rhymed. You could live off rapping whenever you’re tired of being a bodyguard you know?” Nicholas said, heading to the windows with scrutiny.He looked around all the windows on the left side of the door and then headed to the right side.“This side is clear. And be very careful with whatever you’re doing there,” Nicholas said.“I haven’t found anything, fortunately.” Nathan said.“Check complete, nothing is on any of the windows,” Nicholas said.“Aye, come look at this,” Natnan said, his voice stealthy. “Seems like I have found something.”Nicholas ran to Nathan, tiptoeing as he arrived.“That's it,” Nathan pointed to a black coil of wir

    “I totally understand, but he also has to understand that this isn’t some heavenly race. If we don’t act smart, we’d all be six feet beneath the ground before we know it.” Nathan said.“I understand that this whole thing is really pissing you off. But we have to calm down and be diplomatic about it.” Cayden said. “Take for instance we eventually take that route, he can play us right into the hands of the police if we’re not careful.”“He can’t do that, not when he is into contrabands and other dirty business.” Nathan said.“But you guys wanted to send him to jail also. Cayden said. “Isn’t Rose’s dad also into this kind of business?”“Yeah.. he is. But we cleaned up all traces before going to the police.” Nathan said.“And what if he does the same? Of course he’ll know it is us who kidnapped his children or wife. He’ll simply clean up also, then go to police and file a complaint against us for kidnapping and also selling contrabands.” Cayden explained. “And when the police come looking

    “Nicholas, Cayden,” Nathan said, calling their attention.Still engrossed in their conversation, they didn’t hear him.Nathan looked around for any signs of Rose in the cafeteria then sat down.“Listen guys,” Nathan said, hitting the table to distract them.“Yo! What is it?” Nicholas asked.“I am going to Letha’s house,” Nathan said.“Okay…. safe journey.” Nicholas said shaking his head. “That’s not it, I…” Nathan was saying when Nicholas interjected.“Whatever it is, just don’t take the car.” Nicholas said.“That’s not the issue, I am not taking the car. Have you seen Rose today?” Nathan asked.“Yeah, she went out of the cafeteria some minutes before you came.” Nicholas explained.“Alright. I need you guys to cover up for me when she asks my whereabouts.” Nathan said.“Look, I’m not interested in couples’ issues.” Nicholas said, concisely.Well, he didn’t expect it to be easy to convince Nicholas to do something of such.“You guys have to help me out.

    Nathan had been living in fear for months, after the last face off. Ever since he had become involved with Mr. Swack and Khosrow's illegal organization he had been having a rethink about things. He needed to bring things to an end and make sure no one was going to be hurt again. Two friends had died. No one else was going down that line. He took a glass of juice from his fridge and downed it. Cayden bounced down the stairs dressed in an all black. He looked ready. "How are you holding up?" Nathan asked. "Ready when you are. We have someone to stop" Cayden replied. Nathan nodded. "Are you calling Rose over?" Cayden took his own juice from the fridge."No, I'd very much prefer that I see after this game of violence is over. Where is Nicholas?" "Right here" Nicholas came down, in ash-brown clothes. "Let's go" They all left the house heading for the cars. Nathan had seen firsthand what Khosrow was capable of, and he knew that he had to stop him before it was too late.For w

"I could tell things were getting tense and I thought changing the subject might help."Cayden nodded appreciatively. He knew he couldn't let his past issues with Veronica get in the way of his friendship with Nicholas and Nathan.But as they walked back to the mansion, Cayden couldn't shake off the feeling that something else was brewing beneath the surface.

    He voiced his concerns to Mr Khosrow who listened intently before reassuring him that everything would be fine. But deep down inside, Remik knew that nothing was ever certain in this line of work.As they prepared for battle once again, Remik steeled himself for what lay ahead. He thought back to those dark days when he was lying in a hospital bed wondering if he would ever walk again.And yet here he was now - ready to take on Swack's empire one more time. It wasn't just about revenge anymore; it was about justice for all those who had suffered at Swack's hands.With renewed determination coursing through his veins, Remik stood up from the table and looked around at his comrades-in-arms. "Let's do this," he said firmly. And with those words ringing in their ears, they set out once again to face the challenges that lay ahead - together as one united force against what they deemed tyranny and oppression.A few days later, Cayden and Olivia were out on a date at a busy restaurant in th

    As they stepped out of the hideout, Mr Khosrow's face was clouded with guilt, and Remik couldn't help but feel suspicious. He knew that Mr Khosrow had done some terrible things in the past to get back at Swack - he just didn't know the extent of it."So, what's our next move?" Remik asked, trying to steer the conversation away from Mr Khosrow's past."We hit them where it hurts," Mr Khosrow said, his voice laced with anger. "Their drug factories."Remik nodded in agreement, feeling a sense of satisfaction that they were finally making progress against Swack and his empire.But as they made their way towards the factories, they came across Nathan and Rose. Nathan had a dark scowl on his face, and Rose looked worried."What's going on?" Remik asked, immediately sensing something was wrong."Nathan told us what you're planning," Rose said, her tone desperate. "You can't do this. It'll start a war."Nathan stepped forward menacingly. "You might think you're doing the right thing, but you'

They quickened their pace and found people looting shops.Remik's heart sank as he witnessed the anarchy in front of him. He thought to himself that how much more they have to face to make their city a peaceful place.Mr khosrow saw the desolate expression on his face and placed a comforting hand on his shoulder.

Remik nodded solemnly, feeling a renewed sense of determination.As they continued walking, they noticed a group of young boys huddled together in the corner of an alleyway.

A chance to put an end to all the bloodshed and violence?He tried to keep his expression neutral as he continued past the two men, but inside he was buzzing with excitement.

    Back home

    Cayden was heartbroken as he walked out of the coffee shop. He knew deep down that he still loved Veronica, but he also understood that she had moved on. He frowned, as he walked down to the bus stop to board a bus. His placed his hands in his red jacket and headed back home. On arrival, he walked in to meet Nathan and Nicholas seated on the couch and seeing a movie. The banging sound as he closed the door got their attention. Nicholas and Nathan gazed at the entrance to see who came in." Hey man, Are you Okay?" Nicholas said as he noticed the gloomy countenance.Cayden sat at one of the single couches in the sitting room, his hand on his face and placed his legs on the seat's hand rest." Looks like you had a bad day man," Nicholas said. They gazed at Cayden waiting for a reply." Yeah yeah I had a very bad day... I've lost her guys. It's high time I realize that and move on. I can't keep toiling with my feelings like this" Cayden replied." She didn't accept after all this time o
