Leo was still shooting wheh he ran out of bullets. The man smirked and aimed to shoot but this time round, Leo ran towards him as dodged the bullet and before the man could press again Leo gave him around kick and he fell inside the car groaning in pain. His pistol fell out of his hands during the fall.
Leo opened the door immediately and that's when he realized that there was actually no one inside the car. He climbed on top of the man straddling him and pulled his shirts by the collars.
" Where is she ? " He asked.
" I don't know..." The man annoying Leo that he gave him a punch across his jaw.
" Answer right now ? " Leo yelled
The man looked at him and laughed. Leo couldn't believe this fearless man.
" Do you want to die ? " He asked aining to box him again but he was stopped by a voice that said.
" Leave that to us ! " Leo turned to look behind and got off the man. The guards Mark had called had just arrived.
" Thank you so much Officer Leo. Where is Ms Myra ? " The head asked as they heard the police cars come too.
" I think they have escaped away with her. But I am sure they are not very far. They must be footing. " Leo answered.
" Sir, There is Ms Myra's shoe. " One police man came along with the silver stiletto.
On seeing this Leo smirked. " I knew they wouldn't be far ! " He said and ran into the bush the Police man had just found the shoe. The other guards and a few police men followed Leo while the others cuffed the two men they just found in the car.
The men scattered in the bush to different directions to look for Myra.

Myra opened her eyes slowly and found herself in the arms of the man. She screamed and quickly forced herself put of his grip and her threw her down onto the ground makig her groan in pain.
The man squatted before her and said. " Shut your mouth if you wanto stay alive ! " He commanded her in gasps.
Myra looked at him with anger and disgusz evidence in her eyes.
" Don't touch me then ! I will walk on my own. " She said and got up. The man also stood up and hepd her hand.
" I said don't touch me ! " She said again
" You will escape. Hurry and follow me ! " He said again and dragged her.
Myra followed the man choicelessly deep in the bush and she kept her mouth. She was sure no one was going to save her right now.
Leo who had followed the path started hearing some noise just a short distance away from him. He now slowed his movements so that they could not hear him. He walked slowly until he saw them from a distance and on seeing them he said.
" Stop right there ! " His voice was loud and clear in that night and total darkness.
The man turned around still holding Myra's hand and when he saw Leo's pistol pointing at him he surrendered his arms letting go of her. Myra couldn't believe this . She turned slowly to look at this person who just saved her life and now Leo was walking closer to them. When he came into her full view she swallowed hard in shock. Who was this handsome god here to save her ? Was it angel Gabriel sent from heaven to rescue her or it was Apollo the god himself? Myra asked herself many questions seeing a man as handsome as this at that point of time. It was dark but still she managed to see his handsomeness and appreciated him from there and then.
Leo's focus was still on the man and he had not taken time to observe Myra very well. He made the man to kneel down with his arms still raised and he shot above making the sound to call the rest of the policemen and the guards. Myra screamed again on hearing the bullet sound and that's when Leo gave her a look.
" Madam , Are you okay ? " He asked. Myra's face had changed from the slaps and hits sje got from the kidnappers and she had some bruises in her face too which made her beautiful face pretty so Leo didn't get a chance to see the beautiful woman in her. He had heard alot about Myra but had never gotten a chance to see her amd he didn't know her face at all.
" Yes , Thank you for...." Before she even completed her sentence she passed amd on seeing her fall Leo held her by her waist such that she fekk into his arms. Tbey were like when all the other officers reached the sport.
" Detective Leo...you found her? " One of the officers asked.
" Carry her to the car. " He said and handed Myra over to the officer. The other man was also captured and they all left the place.
