Kyrian

While we walked with the guy, several times he kept beating his chest and muttering "Who can defeat me in this area, me Shaki?! It can not happen". I couldn't but believe that his name was Shaki.

“We came with a car, would you like to join us in our car, or would you rather prefer trekking?!”. I asked and immediately Timi started to complain about his legs aching badly.

“Why your friend dey do like that na?! Oya make we enter motor before he go faint here”.

He had said nicely before joining us in our car, I passed him a can of Budweiser, while taking ours as well. Immediately, he cocked it open and finished the drink within some seconds.

“Wow! Seems you love Bud…?”. Timi had asked before he replied faintly and gradually fell asleep.

“We need to handcuff him as soon as possible”. I whispered to Timi who brought out his handcuff and cuffed him immediately, before he could even wake up we were already at the station.

“Na wetin be this?”. Shaki had said arrogantly as he woke up w

    Kyrian“What is this?”. I whispered to myself while opening the message.“Did Dan send a message to you?”. I asked him surprised but he shook his head.“What happened?!” he uttered while looking at me surprised.“He sent a "help me!" message to me. We need to go and see him immediately”. Even before I could complete my statement Timi was already in his car.I watched how furious Timi became as he drove the car, he even obtained a scratch from the rush. I doubt if he even knew about it, he was bleeding seriously on his hand.“You are bleeding”. I muttered but he ignored me and continued speeding up.“You should calm down, you know, he is going to be fine”. I whispered but he ignored me and even increased the speed.“You are going to get us killed”. I whispered.“He is in big trouble”. He whispered finally in his deep tone as I got even more confused.Maybe he knows why he is in danger.“Still, you should slow down so that you don't get us killed”. I whispered but it was clearly on deaf

    KyrianI immediately dragged Timi outside. “What is the problem? And please don't tell me you are alright”. Timi still kept mute as I took him inside the car when I got a call from Dan.“I'll be right back, please try and be fine”. I mumbled before leaving him.While I was walking towards the emergency room, I noticed the old woman was still looking at me, I tried to ignore her but froze instantly when she whispered my name.“Kyrian". She had said in a low tone and a slight cough.“Who are you?”. I said anxiously while moving towards her.“My name is Christy, you have a striking resemblance with one of my brother's child that has been missing for days. Are you the one?”. The Lady muttered almost in tears. I looked at her confused, there was nothing of her I could remember besides my Dad was an only Child.“No ma'am I only paused because I noticed how you have been looking at me for a while now, my name isn't even Kyrian and my parents are very much alive. My brother got involved in a

    KyrianI was totally confused seeing the picture in front of me, I felt insane for a moment. There was only one voice that I could hear, the sweet voice of my mum whispering "You can do this". “So who is Shaki?”. I muttered hopelessly as Timi shook his head while looking at me “What is wrong with the both of you? I am trying to get things in order and you are confusing me all the more, what is going on?! You both screamed "Shaki!" As if you saw a ghost, yet the two of you are the same people asking me who Shaki is, are you insane?!”. Inspector John screamed angrily as he looked furiously at Timi and me.“We are sorry Sir”. We mumbled together.The rest of the statements Inspector John made afterwards were all history as I kept looking at the man in the picture dumb. He wasn't even close to looking like Shaki. Meaning, that Shaki is most likely to be the terror we have been looking for, for years and yet we allowed him to sleep away from us. How could I have made such a costly mistak

    KyrianDan had fallen and injured his stomach again. Timi and I quickly helped him out of the bathroom. I had to clean it up immediately while Timi helped him redress the wound again. That took us another round of gisting before we finally slept off.The barking sound of my neighbour's dog woke me up while I gently rubbed my eyes. I tried stretching my legs but couldn't as I felt a soft cold skin. I finally sat up straight while looking at the figure. It was Dan, he was polishing his black shoe.“How are you feeling now?”. I asked concerned, as he whispered "Fine". I couldn't stand up from the bed, all my body system felt crushed and weak. I yawned as the bad breath from my mouth returned to me. My mouth had a terrible smell so I went directly to the bathroom to brush my teeth.“Oh my goodness! What a night! What about Timi?”. I said while drying my face with a little towel that was in the bathroom.“He already left for the airport, he said he didn't want to trouble you that was why h

    KyrianThere was absolutely nothing that could describe how bad I felt until I reached home. I had taken excuses from work because I needed to deal with my emotions. Dan had asked me what went wrong but I refused to speak or utter a word to him.I picked up my pad and started a game with my PlayStation. I was obviously won multiple times. My hands only moved on the pad whereas my eyes were fixed on a blank space, the beautiful light radiated from my laptop yet it all felt like a blackout. Timi returned during cool evening, not a word to me nor Dan. Dan hoping he would say a word to him got even confused about our attitude “Is this how you guys live or behalf daily?!”. He had whispered annoyed while going to bed to sleep. It was my first time having an issue with Timi and it isn't a good one. I avoided the bed space and went to sleep in the sitting room. No one bothered about the night meal, aside from Dan who prepared a little noodles for himself and slept while Timi and I went with

    Kyrian I couldn't be more shocked when Timi dressed up and left again.“It's already two days yet you people still act like strangers, what is going on?”. Dan muttered as I came out of the bathroom.“Mmm... Some days are like that. Guess he we are cool with the silence, don't worry, we will bounce back, I'll be reaching the office today, I need to clarify some stuff with Inspector John”. I mumbled while gently pressing the mouth of my dove cream, while gently massaging my skin with it.“Some days are like that?! It's already two days, and I'm no longer comfortable, I will be returning to my apartment tomorrow, is this how you both intend to continue?!”. He said worriedly while I kept smiling at him.“You worry so much my friend, we will be fine trust me. You know where to get food if you need it. I will be on my way now”. I said and gently gave him a pat on his shoulder.I could feel Dan's angry look as he kept looking at me while I walked out of the house.I was happy and same time m

    KyrianWell, just like a fairy tale, Timi and I reconciled and went back to the office together. He dropped his car key and decided to go on my ride. Dan was sitting at the back “So...”. I muttered while looking at Timi.“So what?!”. He said blushing.“The rescue mission gist”. I muttered as we started laughing.“Well, I just went to the airport, bribed one of the craft coordinators and he shared his details with me, I waited till he came to the airport, he did disguise himself with his supposed son, though the young boy looked pretty young to be Lucy's since they were long divorced, but the DNA result will tell more on that. So, I...”“All these silly touts”. Dan interrupted as I looked at him.“What's wrong?”. I mumbled while looking at him smiling.“Nothing, sorry for disrupting, just a little view of this mad tout displaying rash behaviour. And he is still hitting the guy's car”. He said while looking back.I had to look through the mirror “Hold on isn't that Shaki?!”. I muttered

    KyrianI just tried keeping quiet while still looking at the man and how gently he answered Timi as he was being interrogated by him.“His son is crying, he wants to see him”. Inspector John muttered after a phone call.“But don't worry, he won't, not until he speaks the truth”. He muttered and left.“I want to see my son”. He whispered after a short break.“You are yet to say the truth”. Timi mumbled as he stood up to drink water.“Nobody will father your child when you die, I'll make sure of that, so you better start telling the truth”. I mumbled and left the room, after a short while Timi came out as well.“Said anything yet?”. I mumbled while looking at Timi in his sweaty shirt.“Same lying words when he gets tired of lying he will let us know”. He mumbled and took a seat close to where I stood. “But this is the craziest case I have ever gotten myself involved in. He doesn't have a mark on his face, neither does Shaki, so who is the murderer?”. I let out as Timi busted out laughi

"Why?" he asked, the word escaping his lips like a breath of air. "Why did you do it? Why did you betray me? Why did you become what you were?"Ken remained silent, his eyes unreadable, his expression impassive. Then, he spoke, his voice low and resigned. "I have made my choices, Kyrian," he said. "Choices that I cannot undo, choices that have led me here," Ken continued, his voice growing softer, more reflective. "But I want you to know, Kyrian, that I am not without regret. I have done many things in my life, some of them good, some of them bad. But I am not beyond redemption."Kyrian stared at Ken, his heart aching with the weight of the moment. "Then why?" he asked again, his voice shaking slightly. "Why did you turn away from me? Why did you turn away from everything we believed in?" Ken's gaze

    Epic 127Kyrian was taken aback by the call, the hairs on the back of his neck standing on end. "That was Ken," he said, his voice low and tight. "He knows about our plan."Jasmine and Timi's faces paled, the shock of the moment sinking in."How is that possible?" Jasmine asked, her voice trembling slightly. "We haven't told anyone."Kyrian's mind raced, piecing together the fragments of information they had gathered. "He must have someone on the inside," he said, his eyes hardening with determination. "We'll continue to pretend like we're giving up," Jasmine continued, her mind already whirling with ideas. "We'll feed him misinformation, make him think he's winning. But in the meantime, we'll be searching for the leak."Kyrian nodded a fierce determination in his eyes. "We need to be extra careful," he said, his voice grave. "If Ken finds out we're on to him, he'll disappear into thin air, and we'll never get justice for your father. Timi shifted uncomfortably, his mind racing with

"I suppose one more night won't hurt," he said, his voice playful. "I have a couple of spare beds. You're welcome to stay."Timi grinned, relief and excitement filling his face. Kyrian and Jasmine couldn't help but laugh at Timi's eagerness, and the group made their way to the spare rooms, preparing for a night of restful sleep.But as the lights went out and the quiet of the night settled in, Jasmine found herself tossing and turning, unable to shake the unease that had settled in her mind.She couldn't shake the feeling that they were all still in danger, that Ken's threat was still very real and very present.

"You want me to believe that someone else is responsible for all of this chaos and destruction."Ken's expression remained unreadable, his eyes fixed on Kyrian. "I am only telling you what I know," he said, his voice calm and even. "I am not the only person in this world who is capable of causing harm."Kyrian's expression hardened, his voice filled with determination. Kyrian's words dripped with bitterness and sarcasm as he glared at Ken. "As it stands now, you're the only one who seems capable of causing harm in this world," he spat. "You've done nothing but bring pain and destruction to the people around you."Ken's expression grew colder, his eyes dark and unfeeling. "And what would you have me do?" he demanded. "What would you have me say to make you believe that I am not the monster you think I am?"Kyrian shook
