The leading Governorship aspirant by popular pre election polls Mr Morire came home from a very tiring campaign, here he is sleeping like a worn out hard working man in the palatial bedroom of his mansion.
His invalid wife also sleep on the extreme end of their wide bed like they are not a cordial couple. Both are unconscious of four hardened guys who mysteriously broke through their heavily guarded palatial estate, and are surrounding and looking down on them as they turned around on the bed, been moved by their different dreams.
The leader of this gang made a signal to one of his men, the guy knew what the signal demands of him, so he moved into action. He violently yanked the the rich warm cover clothes with which both cover themselves because of the extreme coldness of the harmattan off them.
Morire woke up with a shock, but his invalid wife turn and sleeps on. He squint his eyes because the guys had switched off the dreamy dull light that he normally put on when they sleep, in it's place they switched on the harsh bright light that he uses for reading whenever he has to read in this bedroom.
The light was directly above his side of the bed, and it penetrated straight into his eyes, he shielded his eyes with his hands and at the same time he tried to see who dare to come rudely into his bedroom and pulled his cover cloth off him in this rude manner.
He was shocked beyond measure when his eyes cleared enough for him to see four guys pointing very scary guns at his head, these guns were kinds one only sees in American movies.
He wanted to talk, but the leader of the gang shushed him with hands on his own lip and sounding shhhhhh, meaning don't say a word!
The words died in his throat immediately in obedience.
The gang leader in a very deep and unusual thick baritone voice introduced himself, he said, "My name is No one and I am here with my friends on a very dangerous mission that you will determine it's outcome, till we finish what we are here for you must not say anything unless I give you permission to talk, if you understand my instruction shake your head."
Morire shook his head and No one said, "Good, now that we understand each other we will have no problem or do you want my problem?" Morire said, "No, please I will give you mo....." One of the guy put the nuzzle of his deadly gun in his mouth to keep him quiet and No one said, " I just told you not to talk when I do not ask you to talk, one more unnecessary word from you will cost you your life or that of this your sick wife, do you understand me? Morire shake his head.
No one looked around and said, "You will do one thing for me now, you will get up quietly and call your security men that are guiding the front sides of your compound, they are four in numbers by my count, if you by any means give them any sign then you are on your way to hell, do you hear me. Morire shook his head again and No one said, " Now call in the four of them with quiet steady voice and tell them that you want to have a word with them through your intercom.
Morire stood up cautiously from the bed and picked the phone, he called his men with very cool steady voice and told them that the four of them should come quickly because he want to show something to them.
unsuspectingly, the guys came into the room in a single file, but before they would come, No one and his guys hid themselves, well flattened against the wall and behind the door.
When Morire's security men walked in, it was into a trap. No one and his guys were behind them with guns drawn. When Morire's men sees the kind of guns that this gang pointed at them they became softened in their knees!
.No one took no time in disarming them, he commanded them to strip naked one by one, and once their clothes were in a heap on the floor, he looked at them and mocked them saying, "You quacks, where is your security instinct, that not one among you sensed it that you are walking into trap, is this how you can protect a whole governor to be?"
They were all ashamed, afraid and wondering how these men got inside, and they could not say anything. No one ordered the four of them to walk into the bedroom's toilet which he has personally inspected and knew that there was no means of communication in it, and he locked them inside.
While all these were happening, it was baffling that Morire's wife was just sleeping and snoring, she was oblivious of the danger in the room. No one looked at Morire and ordered, "Wake your wife we are going on a journey"
At this point Morire knew he was in serious trouble and he thought to beg them, he knelt down and said, "Please sir, please don't do this to me, please!"
Seeing one of the men kicked him in the tommy, he double over in terrible pain! The guy said, "the boss said don't talk when you are not ask to, let that sink into your skull!"
No one ordered again, "Get up and don't waste my time, wake your wife. In fright, he got up bent double in pain and woke his wife.
When the wife woke up, she still was oblivious to what is happening, she looked like a person suffering amnesia She looked around and asked, "Are we there in the campaign ground, when are we going home? I want to go to the toilet"
No one looked at her, shook his head and issued the next order, "Mr Governor, you know how men used to carry their wife after wedding, carry her and moved we have no time for her unconscious rubbish!"
Morire looked around at their unsmiling faces and knew that if he do not obey them there will be hell to pay, he in thanks, that his wife is not a fat woman that he would struggle to carry obeyed and scooped her up, and they pushed him with gun and head out.
Quietly when they got into the compound, No one who has taken his expensive armoured car keys opened it and ushered him in with his wife. They opened the gate and drove them out of the compound before the security guys in the other part of the sprawling estate would come, when they came they only met the gate carelessly left opened with no security around.
There was chaos in the place when they later forced the the toilet open and the guys in the toilet told them all that happened.
About two hours later, the armoured car was seen in that middle of the night on a desolate road at the outskirts of the city, the person driving it was driving as if they were on a mission to commit suicide by auto crash this night.
Morire was holding unto his heart in anticipation of ghastly accident, but he could not say a word as he was sandwiched between them. Only his wife was saying whatever comes to her mouth which have no meaning to them.
Suddenly, No one said, "I love this place, stop the car" Fear gripped Morire from head to toe, he believed they want to kill them and he decided to plead for his life one more time, he begged, "Sir, please don't kill us, please"
No one looked at him without any sign of mercy and he ordered, push him down" The guy beside him tossed him down like a lifeless doll and he fell with a thud to the road.
No one came down too and looked at him on the floor and said, "Get up now and run" Morire looked at him with a pleading eyes, but the eyes that met his were too cold and deadly to behold. No one said, "If I count to three and you are not up and running like Olympic athlete you will be dead. One, two, Morire without thinking jumped up and sprinted away, occasionally he looked back in fear and saw No one pointing his gun at his back.
He expect to hear gun shot that will end his life in this center of no man's land, but till he was out of sight the gun did not sound.
However, he hear the roaring of his armoured car engine coming behind closer and closer to him with the beating of his heart, he ran more with all his might looking for a place to dive into beside the road, because he now believed they want to crush him with the car, but the place was well chosen for their purpose, there was no place he could run into: because this part of the road was covered on both side because it stretched over a river.
when the car got to him, he jumped to the side and the car ran passed him, somehow he knew they did not want to crush him, if they want to the car will swerved and crush him unto the iron guide.
The car ran for about one hundred meter and and turned abruptly to face him, and it was coming against him where he fell wounded, the earlier thought that they don't want to crush him flew out of his mind, he tried to scramble to his feet but it was too late, he screamed as the car was some feet away from him.
But at the nick of time the car screeched to a stop in front of him because of it's super abs brake. Morire opened his eyes which he has closed while he was screaming, with his body trembling all over he saw No one standing over him.
He looked at him and said, " I just want to show to you that you should take us very serious, I am not here to kill you, but to help your political campaigns, when you get back home there is a video CD waiting for you in your home theater, watch it immediately and I will talk to you later.
He turned to go and Morire in relief asked, "But what of my wife?"
No one looked back at him and said you mean your jelly fish of a wife? You don't need her again, bye." Just like that he entered into the car and they zoomed away.
