Chapter 1 - Commotion

In a deserted old flat pulled up a Toyota Prado of registration no KCA, 582 G. In the vehicle were four occupants,two elderly people a young gentleman and a lady.

The driver was a bearded man, with a well built body as well as a large complexion,tall and dark. Alongside sat a frail woman with a sad looking face and pulled back long hair. The vehicle then came to halt as the screeching of brakes ressounded. The lady and gent at the back sit turned to face each other before the gentleman opened the door and set his foot out. He parted onto the ladies shoulder and started approaching an old flat a couple of meters away."Be careful Li",the elderly man uttered.He lowered his glasses to have a better look at Li approaching the flat pacing.

On reaching the door, Li lifted his hand to knock but hesitated a little and turned to face backwards.The girl in the vehicle popped out her head and stared at Li. "Get back your head Miranda! " Scoffed the elderly woman.

By this time,Mr Rowel Kamau was hopefully staring at Li, with an urging eye. He alongside his wife Christine Chebet had lived together for quite a while and despite the fact that they were both well off in terms of finance, problems never let them go.

Their marriage was some bit troubled and now, there adored daughter Melissa had gone missing. A report delivered by Li, a controversial member of the Rowel family suggested that Melissa was being held captive at this old flat. The master mind behind the kidnap and intended blackmail was ghostly. Li himself had requested Mr Rowel not to report the issue to the police reminding him that it was just but a small issue that could be dealt with easily.

Li, turned to face Mr Rowel, focusing his eyes on him in an inquiring manner. Mr Rowel nodded his head and Li immediately turned back angrily heading towards the flat entrance. He quickly knocked on the door and stood waiting timidly. His heart was racing and he felt his knees sweating.He heard some conversation inside but couldn't get a glimpse of what was being said.

He knocked once again loudly and in an annoying manner, just in case someone was in. Suddenly he heard footsteps approaching the door in a casual pace.

A man opened the door just a small bit and drew his head out to face Li. He was actually a youth with a ruthless looking face, full of untrimmed beards. This made him look old and wild, not to mention scary.

Li almost trembled but stood still watching the man's posture in a ready manner.

"What do you want? ",the man thundered.Li knew how to deal with such. After all he wasn't just a controversial family member, he had a very complex history behind him. "Let me have the girl you're locking up here " ,Li found himself giving orders. The man stared at him but Li's courage was more than withstanding. The man suddenly turned back into the house slamming the door behind him. Li tried to stop him but the man was too fast. Now with the door closed, Li had no other way to access the premise.

He stared at the wooden old door as anger built inside him. He clenched his fists and his expression turned violent. He thought to himself that he had some basic Tae Kwon Do and he decided to open the door with his body and cause no pain nor injury.

He turned around on his left, faked a back kick and spun upwards forcing his rear leg to land on the door at full force.

The door fell right inside and Li was more than surprised to find the man with a bleeding forehead sprawling on the floor in agony.

He quicky took out his handkerchief and pressed it into the man's mouth before lifting him and dumping him into a pile of clothes besides.

He then rushed inside in a silent manner, ensuring his foot steps made no sound. As for now, he had already taken care of one suspect.

On reaching the inner door, he found two more guys playing chesses in a noisy and careless manner.There dressing was more of casual and they did not look more pleasing to the eyes.

In the inner third room, Li heard a lady's voice and quickly noted that it was Miranda, the lost daughter and now in the hands of one of the most ruthless thug in the Western region of Kenya, David Robert Scorpio.
