The next morning, Antonella woke up to Enzo packing his suitcase, all hyped and ready to go on his newly assigned mission."Good morning sleepyhead." Enzo said as he breezes past her to get some of his stuff on the bed.Antonella's mood quickly went sour, she hated the fact Enzo was leaving with Georgina, and Enzo being hyped about leaving didn't exactly fill her with confidence."We need to talk." Antonella said, her voice serious."Go on, I'm all ears." Enzo muttered, still not paying any attention to her, he kept wandering around the room picking up his things here and there."When are we taking our relationship to the next level?" Antonella asked with a stern look."Wait! What? You're so funny." Enzo scoffed, he thought Antonella was just messing with him but he was in for a shock.On the other hand, there was nothing hilarious about her question and the fact Enzo laughed it off, stirred up anger inside her, she was boiling at this point."What do you mean by that?" Antonella pout
After a long flight Enzo and his men land in West Africa, Nigeria. They offload their cargo and luggages, Enzo stares into space, observing the environment intently."This place makes me sick." Marco muttered, he walked past Enzo with his luggage. Enzo shrugs, shaking his head slowly, he had always had how unbearable living in Africa was but he has never experienced such harsh weather conditions. The hot air choked him, the dusty atmosphere made the environment even more unbearable.A convey of military tanks hastily approached, panic creeped into the air, Marco gazed at Enzo waiting for orders to know what their next move would be, given they felt they were under attack. Enzo shakes his head slowly signaling his men too lay low. The tanks surround them, the tension in the air was palpable but Enzo kept his cool.Some soldiers got down from their tanks and opened the door for a senior officer, a dark chubby officer got down from his tank, dressed in his full military attire, the offic
In a dimly lit room, General Danjuma and 4 of his colonels sat and discussed what their next line of attack would be, they have had little luck in defeating the rebels over the past couple of years. Enzo, Marco and Georgina entered the room."Gentlemen, thank you for joining us." General Danjuma greeted them as they sat down facing the tactics board.For some reason Colonel did not like the presence of the Europeans and some of his compatriots shared his view."So what have you guys been up to?" Marco cuts in, his eyes darting around the room looking for clues and hints."You do not speak unless you're been spoken to." Colonel Ramat wasted no time in showing his disapproval for foreign mercenaries."What's that supposed to mean? Bro you're tripping, somebody tell bro he is tripping." Marco scoffs at Ramat's attempt to intimidate him."The only thing tripping would be your dead body in a raven." Ramat sneered."I understand you don't like our presence here and I respect that, but I woul
General Dim, the leader of the rebels sat in his office in Nsukka, Enugu. His demeanor worrisome and disturbed. He stood up from his chair pacing back and forth, panic evident in his face, soon there was a knock on the knock.‘’come in!’’ dim said immediately after the knock. Another officer approached him, giving a salute to general dim.“colonel Effiong, what is the update?” general dim dived directly into important matters.“I’m afraid we have a problem sir.” Colonel Effiong said with a low tone.“what problem have we encountered again?’’ general dim eyebrows furrowed.“the second battalion led by major ife, that was supposed to sneak through the Midwest and counter the advancing Nigerian troops behind the Niger has sacked Benin city.” Colonel Effiong answered.“under whose command? Who sanctioned such operations?’’ general dim replied looking a bit furious.“I believe major ife convinced the soldiers that he received the orders directly from you.” Colonel Effiong retorted.“I gave
General Danjuma sat in his office reminiscing with a stick of cigar, he stared into space before turning his attention to the map, the early revelation Enzo made bothered him a lot, the mere idea that the Igbos had conquered the Midwest in just one day sent shivers down his spine and he feared that the Biafra troops might be on their way to Lagos and this thought did not sit well with danjuma as he paced back and forth lost in deep thoughts.‘’inshallah, we will win this war, Allah is with us.’’ He reassured himself, the thoughts of the Biafra army dominating two regions might put general dim as a favorite to win the war.There was a knock on the door and Georgina enters the room. ‘’general, we need to talk.’’ Georgina said with a stern expression.‘’what is wrong? Is there a problem in the battlefield?’’ general danjuma asked curiously, his eyebrows raised in anticipation.‘’not at all general, we have liberated the Midwest region from Biafra control.’’ Georgina replied, general danj
Enzo walked into his chambers and met Georgina sobbing, he seemed puzzled about what was wrong, why was Georgina crying on his bed.‘’is anything wrong?’’ enzo said with a worried look, he observed her body language intently.‘’he just slaughtered innocent civilians in hundreds, they were defenseless.’’ Georgina cried, her voice breaking, Enzo takes a long deep breath, he knew this was going to be a long session. He was unfazed because he was accustomed to such bloodshed, he has been involved in a lot of high risk and sensitive missions.Even the first time he experienced mass murder, it overwhelmed him. Enzo drops his pistol on the table and removes his vest.‘’are you okay? Did anyone hurt you?’’ Enzo asked as he approached her, Georgina shakes her head and embraces him tightly while still sobbing.‘’it’s okay, you’re be fine, I won’t let anyone hurt you. You have my word.’’ Enzo caresses her hair.The embrace lingers for a while before Georgina let go of him, gazing straight into
Enzo shrugs as he watched Georgina leave, he wished he could talk to her and clear the air but Georgina was so mad she left in a flash. Enzo collapse on his bed while staring at the ceiling, another knock comes from his door.‘’I don’t get why you females act up unnecessarily.’’ Enzo mumbles as he kept staring at the ceiling thinking it was Georgina.‘’what the hell are you talking about?’’ Marco said as he opened the door and sat down in a nearby couch.‘’nothing.’’ Enzo said looking disgruntled.‘’don’t tell me you’ve been smashing all these local bitches.’’ Marco shrugs and goes to the fridge and takes a bottle of Guinness stout. ‘’bro you have to try one of these.’’ Marco throws a bottle to Enzo who catches it and stares at it for a while.‘’drink up. We have a problem.’’ Marco said while sitting across Enzo, Enzo sat up. ‘’What is it?’’ Enzo asked with a hint of seriousness in his face.‘’you pissed off Antonella, what the hell am I hearing about you and Georgina. Are you crazy?
General Dim paced back and forth as the recent report dawned on him, he seemed extremely troubled and rightly so; Onitsha had fallen into the control of northern soldiers. Onitsha was seen as the commercial hub of the Biafra nation and its fall was a devastating blow to his camp.A knock comes from the door and an officer walks in and salutes.‘’it’s apparent that Onitsha have fallen. Unfortunately, I expect their next attack to be a direct thrust to Owerri, our brothers in asaba have been butchered. An ugly fate awaits us.’’ General dim grumbled under his breath.‘’true sir but we can fight back, no retreat, no surrender, we battle till the last man.’’ Major Achuzie replied looking optimistic about pushing the northern troops.‘’I admire your courage major, my soldiers are blessed with bravery.’’ General dim regarded.‘’we were doing so well over the years, but I don’t think we will be able to hold them back for much longer.’’ General dim muttered.‘’Sir Major Kaduna met his end whil
