Joe chased after Jane a minute before the Governor. The royal guards too, shooting at Jane who dodged and ran out into the court yard.
"Freeze!" Joe commands as he got a clear aim of her but due to the fuss around, Jane dodged again and mixed herself with the guests fleeing the compoud.
He didn't loose hope as he too made for her. The guards too moved swiftly as the gate was blocked before Jane could make it out.
"Stop!" A guard shouted threatening to shoot Jane.
"I surrender." Jane said as she took her hands up.
She turned around, just a step away from the gate. It had all been a calculated move, letting the innocents out and locking the gate before she made it there.
"Don't move!" The guards suddenly yelled as they rushed forward knocking her to the ground.
Joe Ken saw all this but didn't interfere just yet. He was not here on duty but for his own personal moral.
He saw Jane fall to the ground grimancing in as a guard pulled the cock of his gun. They were going to kill her, he won't let that happen. Although she had betrayed not only her nation but the police loyalty, she still didn't deserve to be punished in the hands of guards, guards who were not official but personal.
Why did the Governor have so many guards anyway? And what money is Jane after. For the short time he had met and worked with Jane, he knew she was a good, kind hearted person, but the change recently was doubtful...and draconian.
"Don't kill her!" Joe suddenly yelled interfering as Jane looked up to see her saviour with surprise.
"I knew you won't let them do it." Jane smiled as she got to her knees.
"I will take over from here." Joe Ken said as he pulled out the cuffs hooked on his waist band.
"We have orders from the dynast." A guard with a scar on his face and pierced ear said.
He looked familiar. "Are you a guard?" Joe asked.
"Cut the crap! Kill her!" The guard yelled the last part to his pal next to Jane who didn't hesitate abit.
A shot rang out as Jane saw the guard pulling out his gun to shoot her, she did thought she was the one shot until she saw the guard who was to shoot her drop to the ground, blood dripping out of his forehead.
"Tell me who you are!" Joe said as he now pointed his gun away from Jane's direction to the scary man infront of him.
"Is no time to laugh! You killed Mr. Gindi, right!" Joe Ken stared at him straight in the eyes. The man disguised as a guard smiled as he kept nagging him to shoot him.
"Come on, shoot me!" The man said ignoring what question or state Joe had said.
"You are going back with me for questioning." Joe said calmly as he swinged the cuff in his hand.
"Kill them all.!" The guard shouted suddenly pulling Jane into action as she rolled on the ground snatching the gun on the ground and shooting back at the guards who had not expected her to do so.
Two versus six, yet the two didn't even get a scratch. The only man left was the one with a scar.
"Im not telling you anything." He vowed as Joe stepped on the wound he had inflicted on his shoulder. He continued this tortured until the man spurted out the truth.
"Katumo ordered me! I swear it was nothing personal, I was just on the job." He cried begging him to stop the torture.
"Why are you still here?" Joe suddenly asked Jane who had not left but stood by his side not saying a thing.
"Are you not going to turn me in?" She asks instead as Joe turned to look at her. His eyes as red as saucer, "I need an answer from you, why are you doing this?"
Joe stepped harder on the wound until the man groaned trying to roll away passed off.
"So why are you with Erick?" Joe continued asking Jane as he cuffed the man on the ground.
"I just need answers. I lost my two sisters three months ago and I've traced the kidnappers all the way back here. Trust me, I've never killed anyone innocent." Jane said.
"Meet me later." Joe said as he let her leave. He dragged his prey out of the yard not bothering Jane who dared not leave, mismerised.
Jane stood all alone in the yard, infront of the gate as Joe left to dump the man in his boot.
*****
"Where should I hide?" A fearful voice came running round the corner a phone in hand.
It was Mrs. Katumo, she didn't see the woman standing in a corner until she was pulled back by the person.
"A word and you die!" Jane threatens the woman as she plans to use her to lure the Governor.
The phone rang again and Abi pressed the gun to her torso, "Tell him you hiding just here," ..."now show yourself to him."... Jane ordered her about as Katumo accompanied by four guards rushed into the yard searching for thier mistress.
"I'm here." Miss Katumo called out warning them to stay away from her.
*****
Joe sat at the front of his car ready to leave back to the station but he realizes Jane was in trouble.
"Berick roger." He calls out to his patner who had just been waiting for his call.
"Yes roger." The opposite answered back just immediately.
"I've got Jake here, someone helped me out though, a man in a white mask, i couldn't see his face. Erick sipped away again!" Berick's voice reported.
"Can you release Jake now!" Joe asked in a commanding voice," Let him into the front yard, I'm right infront of the gate."
It didn't take long for Berick to drive Jake round the mansion from the back to the front.
"Your parents need you." Berick whispered into Jakes ears, "Go see them, all will be fine, I'm looking after you."
Jake shivered as he nodded. He trusted this person's words and ran into the court yard calling out mom and dad.
"So what now?" Berick asked Joe who had came over to him. "Evidence." Joe said as he recharged his magazine and walked after Jake who was almost approaching his parents. "Don't interfere with this, You forgot the little girl." Joe reminded Berick who immediately left to get Mae.
"Jane!" Joe shouted as he pulled the trigger blowing off a guards head sending a baton flying in the air. He shot precisely, accurately. Not a single miss,each guard a head shot! Such accuracy.
Jane could not connect the pixel. 'Why is he shooting guards,?" She wondered as she too snapped a head off.
Katumo stared at the fight behind his son as Mrs. Katumo ran to save her son Jake.
"Son of a bitch! I knew you would betray me one day!" Katumo who had been equipped with a gun aimed at his son. He shot!
He thought Jake had exposed him, and even led Joe into killing his men. "Die!" He cursed as the bullet ran out of the nozzle. He didnt care if he was his son or not. Mrs. Katumo saw it! She suddenly believed her husband had aimed to kill her son! She saved her son by blocking the bullet with her body.
"Mom!"
Jake cried as blood splurted over him. His mom still on him, hugging on his."Take care Son. Don't live a life like him.."Mrs. Katumo spoke through gulgles as she whispered her wishes to her son. "Take Mae and leave immediately to US, auntie Xie Yu will take care of you." She breathes her last as she kissed his cheek, "Mommy love you all."
Jake couldn't say anything more. He heard her wish clear. He knew aunt Xie Yu, she was his Mother's sister who ran a business in the US from China.
Katumo couldn't believe what he just done. He ran forward too trying to save his wife but she had long gone, beyond a bridge he could not cross.
"Nooo!" He cried as Joe approached him, borrowing Jane's pair of cuffs.
"I swear I will kill you all! I'm going to avenge her!" Katumo screamed as Joe stood next to Jake, pulling him up.
"You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to an attorney. If you can't afford an attorney, one will be provided for you. Do you understand the rights I have read to you?"
Katumo couldn't believe it as he had no where to turn to.
Joe didn't waste any more time as he forcefully cuffed the Governor as the police swarmed in.
"Freeze!"
They came in hot in action.
"Ever late." Joe turned round showing off his badge as he handed the Governor over.
"And there is a criminal in the boot of my car." He added as he turned to Jane.
The police took over securing the place. Jake had to fill in a report too as an officer questioned him.
Sooner a whole team was over the yard, from the forensics to the medics. Corpses had to be transferred to the morgue, the place looked like a battle field.
"I've not forgot there was a money pot you mentioned."
"You ever a brat! You still can't let it go? I'm the one who has played the major role."
"And you still let Erick off after tasting his urinary."
"No I didn't let him off! Wait wait!" Jane shouted as Joe rushed off before she realized the mock in his sentence. "I didn't taste his urinary!" Jane cursed at his back.
"One day I will cut your throat.!"
"Pardon?!" The officer who had been taking notes happened to be passing by and heard her say she would cut a throat.
"No is nothing. I'm just fucked up."
