The breeze gracing the atmosphere had a hidden tension inside it.Ben rode at normal speed as his head kept on replaying his plans for the night to him.
" Ben , I think we need to call this operation off " Snap informed Ben through the bluetooth intercomm in his ear.
" I have a weird feeling about this " Snap added with a worried tone.
" no need to worry, as long as we stick to the plan, we're sure to pull this off " Ben replied confidently.
" I'll get to the first landmark in the next two minutes, so get ready " Ben said disconnecting the call.
Toy's p.o.v
" make sure you all hold your place as we've discussed earlier, and make sure you all aim at him, shoot without waiting for any signal as soon as he got to the marked spot, remember, don't come into view until he's present there" I informed the groups of veteran agents that were lurking behind the darkness in their accredited spot.
I was assigned the skipper of the operation and this time I wasn't settling for a defeat. No one is immortal, luck can only be unfair sometimes.
" what's your status" I asked Cyber { Dandy's agent name, Toy's hacker}
" coast still clear, and no heat mark close to the location" Cyber informed me.
" alright, stay glued to the system, I don't want any mistake" I ordered him before disconnecting the call.
My sniper was ready to release all the five bullets I lodged inside its cartridge.
I was many kilometers away from the Gwagwalada underground bunker, in a seven storey building, inside the seventh floor where I already murdered all the family inside the building.
I was positioned at the window getting a good view of the marked position with the aid of the sniper.
Ben's p.o.v
" I've released and activated the hologram wired ant " I informed Snap
" alright, I'm on it now" Snap informed me as he suddenly became silent.
I knew he's working on the ant, he's supposed to get the ant { robotic ant} to few meters away from the underground bunker entrance/exit
I got my electric skate in my hand as I already had my bike parked inside a gutter with a bomb attached to it.
It also has its own role to play in the mission.
" it's time" Snap voice tuned me back into the game.
" are you sure I'm still invisible"I asked him.
" yeah,not even the greatest hacker can detect you " Snap replied confidently.
" but you're seeing me na " I replied humorously to ease tension from my body.
" funny " Snap snorted.
" on the count of three" he added as I sighed and powered the skate before I dropped it down and stepped on it.
" 3, 2 ,go " Snap ordered as I swung into action at once.
With high speed I was skating down towards the marked location.
Toy's p.o.v
" I can notice some movements but it heat mark isn't that of human" Cyber informed me
" but I gat one of the nearby drone on it to confirm it " he added before I could say anything.
" make it steady" I replied him as I positioned my sniper to the marked zone where he's to be eliminated.
" motherfucking rat " I muttered as I saw Ben crawling amidst the dark, tho he looked weird but no time to debate on that.
" everyone should be alert, he's thirteen steps away from the marked zone" I swiftly informed the team as I also got my mark on him.
He's now on his feet,gently threading towards the bunker entrance on the green grass which served as field for a football team that train there everyday.
" shoot on the count of three" I ordered my team as he's three steps away from the marked zone.
" 3, 2, now " I ordered.
" no, don't shoot" Cyber swiftly screamed but it was too late as a bullet has already been release from my sniper.
" it's a trap " he swiftly added.
I swiftly bend down in order to dodge my bullet that had suddenly turned to hit me.
" the reversal hologram" I said as I returned to my feet.
" yeah " Cyber replied.
Everywhere suddenly went dark but I had my king of night glasses with me which allowed me to see through the dark.
I couldn't wait for any information as I dashed out of the room I was .
" open the elevator" I ordered Cyber as I scampered towards the elevator.
" it's been jammed ,no power supply, everywhere is in blackout" Cyber replied me.
" I'm gonna need seventy five seconds to operate it from here without power supply " he added but I couldn't wait as I scampered towards the stairs.
I think all the agents has been taken down as none could reply me.
Reversal hologram is a sensitive technology which its myth is well known throughout every continent, used by a religious terrorist cyber group to eliminate many citizens of Iraq some years ago.
No hacker has been able to create this deadly weapon again after this cyber group were murdered or claimed to be murdered by the Iraq, but at that, all the agents has been in this game for long than to be on a mission without bullet proof vest,so I was sure something else is wrong somewhere else.
Ben's p.o.v
" how's it going down there" I asked Snap as I neared the underground bunker.
" it worked, the gas has wiped them all out "
I couldn't be less excited, as I increased my speed.
It was a game of chance as I already had everything planned but Snap wasn't sure of himself as he's only tested the reversal hologram once as he claimed, when I was I'm coma.
He's able to break the reversal code with Smith { one of Snap's friend ,also a badass hacker in the State.
For the reversal hologram to work ,a menial transformer power isn't enough as it needed high energy in order to reverse any metal ,or objects containing iron back to where it's coming from with great speed.
Snap had to draw the power the hologram needed from the underground bunker power supply, with the aid of the two transformers few kilometers away from the location.
I was sure that if my prediction was right, their will be agents lurking in darkness waiting for my arrival, because a quack future reader would have been able to predict that I was gonna attack the underground bunker since I had the classified data with me.
I knew everyone is gonna be on bullet proof vest which might render the reversal useless to eliminate agents acting as vigilante, that's why I added a gift of my handmade poison in gaseous state to the hologram ant Snap used.
My poison is very lethal and no amount of training could keep anyone who inhale the gas alive.
Everywhere was already in blackout but with the help of my king of night glasses, it was daylight to me.
The bunker power supply has already been cut out, so every security system would have been automatically override and easy for Snap to control.
I stopped the skate as I got closer to the football field laced with artificial green grass.
The field was just a camouflage to people and it's only used as a training pitch for a privately owned football team because of its location.
With the skates below my armpit, I thread carefully to the spot where the entrance is located on the green grass pitch.
" get the hatch open" I ordered Snap.
" before I open it, do you know that this is the most risky phase of the plan " Snap uttered with a worried tone.
" we've already gone through this before, just open it" I replied Snap.
" if it goes wrong, you're gonna die and not only you,all those innocent kids are gonna go down with you,just have a rethink, " Snap said almost in a pleading tone.
" what we've achieved tonight is enough to send the message you want to the mask " Snap added trying to get me to change my mind but I'm already above the stage of going back. I won't allow monsters like me to be breed again.
" it's better for those kids to die now than become a monster and only five of them are staying alive after the final stage ,so the sacrifice is fair and I'm not dying tonight, I'm coming back home to my PRECIOUS JEWEL {*winks*}" I said confidently to him
" so open the goddamned door " I ordered Snap as I pulled the zip of my black jacket down.
" Toy has been detected, he's on a bike and about to get to the point where you placed the bike" Snap informed me diving out of the recently ongoing conversation.
" you know what to do, just open this hatch " I almost screamed at him
I heard the sound of the explosion I fixed on the bike and the fire that emanated from it was visible because of the darkness that has hovered everywhere like a blanket.
" done ,he should be dead " Snap said as the green lawn suddenly opened in a spherical shape, a cubicle elevator appeared from it and it top opened.
With the aid of the mini ladder inside the cubicle looking elevator, I descended into the elevator as it failed to appear at the upper ground.
As the elevator descended downward, I took off the jacket completely revealing the B42 explosive I had strapped to my body.
With a whirling sound ,the elevator stopped and its door opened.
The emergency backup light was already on and the lone corridor had a red light illuminating light from every angles of the corridor.
I knew an ambush laid ahead of me so I activated the bomb and its timer started reading from ten minute downward.
I placed the beetle camera on the wall and with the aid of the computerized wrist watch on my wrist, I controlled it it to move farther.
On my wrist watch, I was able to see ahead, two people with mask on their face, were hiding behind a pillar with their guns pointed upward as they await me.
I got locations of where the other ambush await me and before I continued with my journey, I placed the skate on the ground, pushed it and it went out of sight.
My steps down the lone corridor was calculative and brief with my favorite toy in my hand
I already had every location instilled in my head,so as I made appearance at first ambush point, I laid low,then whistle to get the agents attention,as the two agents moved beyond their shield to shoot me, I aimed at one's head, shot him at once, rolled on the floor to avert the bullet of the second, glued to my knee as I shot his hand which he used in holding the gun.
I moved closer to him, dragged him up and placed my gun on his head ,as my left hand was wrapper around his neck.
I pushed him further as I moved towards the main ambush point where almost everyone is hiding.
As I got to the limelight, almost six agents appeared with guns pointed towards me.
One of them shot my hostage on the head and he breath last at once.
I dropped him to the floor revealing the B42 explosive clinging onto my chest.
I could see the shock in their eye through the mask they had on as they saw the explosive.
" I don't think I need any formal introduction as you all seem to know me and know the kinda explosive I have on" I said to them lowering my toy.
" well,I've got this place under control ,no one comes in or goes out without my approval and my heart is gonna need to be beating if you don't want to be roasted alive so you're all free to lower those guns" I pouted like we're accomplice.
They all lowered their guns in surrender motion.
" good guys" I said moving closer to One of them who looked like the head trainer, patted her shoulder like an obedient servant.
" so what I need is simple, we're gonna wake all those sleeping beauties you gat locked up and I'm gonna need to evacuate them with the transporter " I ordered staring into the eye of the head trainer before I pulled her mask off.
I knew she doesn't need the mask on because all head trainers have mask immunity.
" it's impossible to wake them up " she said staring at me with a blood shot eye.
" they're sedated with Lh" she added still staring at me.
" I know " I said to her taking off my small bag pack on my back.
I took out the syringe looking object that contained the liquid capable of waking the kids up.
" here " I said handing her the syringe looking object.
" as you can see, it's just six minutes remaining for the explosive to go off, so I won't ask you to make it snappy" I said patting her shoulder again .
" I'll be waiting for the kids at the transporter entrance and trust me, nothing works here until I order it so don't bother trying to use the radio or any means of communication " I added before taking my leave to the transporter point.
The transporter is like a mini train with tyres which is used in conveying new kids kidnapped to allocated underground bunker.
And it's also used to convey important personnel to the bunker during the last contest.
Only one transporter is allocated to each bunker and its route is located underground.
" is she awake" I asked Snap after I updated him about the success of the operation.
" nope, you hit the right spot" Snap replied smiling.
" the kids are on their way " I informed Snap as I saw the kids been led towards me on single file.
All memories of my experience when I was also in their shoe hit me like an atomic blast and I also remembered Precious.
" good " I said as they got to where I was standing.
The kids were still many, I was sure that only few of them has been killed ,maybe ten or two below.
I checked the explosive timer and we still got two minutes and few seconds before it explode.
I asked Snap to open the transporter door and I asked all the kids to enter.
They all rushed in .
" thanks for your cooperation" I said smiling as I also entered the transporter.
" good luck on your way to hade " I said cackling as the transporter ignited and I took off the jacket from my body without deactivating it first.
The jacket was a fake ,I already had the explosive planted in the skateboard and the jacket was its detonator.
With high altitude, the transporter propelled itself into the abyss of darkness that has clustered into a fog in front of it.
I hit clicked on the detonate key on my watch and I could hear everywhere crumbling, but the speed of the transporter got us away from the blast.
I turned to look at the kids and they've all fallen asleep back as the effect of the anti-sedative liquid I asked them to be administered with has worn out of there system.

•
Now the news in details.
" did you do that" Gina asked Ben staring at him suspiciously as he sat on one of the sofa inside the room, while Gina slept with her head resting on Ben's lap.
" do what" Ben also asked with an innocent face.
" kidnapped kids found, an underground building which exploded in Gwagwalada " Gina said as she took her head away from Ben's lap as she made to sit down to stare into Ben's eye with a look that depicted she knew he was guilty.
Snap snorted as he carried his laptop and was about to exit the large sitting room.
" partner in crime " Gina said looking at Snap who didn't bother dishing out his reply, instead smiled and left.
" I don't know anything about it oo" Ben stressed out as he avert his gaze and pretended to be following the news still on broadcast on the BBC channel .
Gina sat down on his lap in order to block his view and started staring at his face, Ben tilted his head to the left in order to avert the gaze,Gina cackled as she wrapped her hands around Ben's neck, then kissed him deeply.
After she unlocked their lips, Ben was staring at her with a lust filled eye.
" now, who performed all those miracle" Gina swiftly asked Ben staring at him too before he could try to avert his gaze again.
Ben smiled as he lowered his lip down to Gina's own and they both engaged in another session of smooching.
" you're right " Ben told her as soon as they disengaged their lips.
" those kids deserves a better life not the ones they're about to be forced with" Ben said with a stern face.
" wow ,I'm proud of you " Gina said excitedly.
" but how did you do that, I thought you're with me throughout the night and I even remember waking up by four AM and you're right beside me, cuddling me in your arms " Gina asked with a perplexed expression.
" the mission was a swift one, so I was able to return early and I hit the right spot" Ben said smiling
" what spot " Gina asked looking perplexed but Ben answered her question with another hot session of smooching.
" aren't you hungry" Ben asked Gina after they stopped smooching.
" I'm satisfied with you only" Gina replied trying to kiss Ben, but Ben averted his head laughing.
" I'm a dangerous addiction, you might just develop ulcer if you can't let go of me" Ben said smiling.
" So sure of yourself " Gina said staring at Ben with a wierd look.
" that's my charm" Ben replied still smiling.
" you're d--n right" Gina said as she swiftly locked lip with Ben again and they started smooching again,Ben laid her down on her back on the sofa and ,his hands on her boobs as they continued smooching.
The action was briefly brought to an halt as a low alarm tone suddenly goes off inside the sitting room with the message.
" danger zone, stop what you're doing now" sounded repeatedly.
" idiot" Ben said laughing as he already knew the perpetrator of the deed.
" Snap " Gina asked Ben.
" yeah,it's that idiot" Ben replied and gina smile.
" let me fix us something to eat" Ben said standing up as they both head to the kitchen.
•••••••••••••••
" wow ,this is good" Gina said after devouring the first spoon of jollof rice she ate.
" you're the best " Gina said smiling as she introduced another spoon to her mouth chewing it with delicacy with her eye shot as she tried to savor the deliciousness of the meal.
" it's been long I tasted a good homemade jollof rice like this, it's when I visited my mom last in the State,your cooking ability is up to pal with my mom's" Gina said excitedly introducing more spoon to her mouth while Ben and Snap watched her in awe.
" why are you both staring at me like that" she suddenly asked as she saw both of them staring at her without eating their meal.
" this is one of the worst meal prepared by him and you're here claiming this is up to pal with your mom's cooking" Snap said returning his gaze to his meal on the dining table while Ben snorted as he also avert his gaze to his meal.
" you are joking right" Gina asked looking perplexed but received no answer as both guys feigned mute .
" I'm marrying you tomorrow Ben,if not for anything but your cooking skills ,it's the best" Gina said smiling as she continued devouring her food.
It was just a simple meal of jollof rice and grilled chicken.
•••••••••••••
" I think I'm pregnant" Gina said laughing as she stretched her stomach out as she rested her back on the bed while she sat on the floor.
" I don't remember myself eating up to half of the meal I had today ever in my life" Gina said smiling .
" you ain't the first to say that" Ben said laughing from the bed ,he's laying on.
" how many girls has said this before" Gina said turning, to look at Ben.
" I forgot to keep count" Ben replied cackling.
" cocky bastard" Gina retorted with a hiss in a humorous manner.
" come here,let me help you with your indigestion" Ben said stretching his hand towards Gina, who flaunt her eye lash in weird manner before he grabbed his hand and joined him on the bed.
They both sat down on the bed facing themselves as Ben took her hand and started massaging her fingers, lightly pressing the right spot that aid indigestion.
" see what has become of you when you're busy swallowing everything like a hungry python that got hold of a fat ram " Ben said staring at Gina as he massaged her fingers.
" I'm gonna tell my dad that you abused his precious daughter, just because I ate only small food" Gina said sulkily as she feigned to be sad.
" small food indeed" Ben retorted as he placed her in a position where she's backing him.
He took off the with blue T-shirt she had on revealing her blue bra.
He placed his two palms on her back and was subtly hitting some spots.
Ben didn't performed this action up to three minutes before Gina belched loudly and Ben bursted into a mocking smile.
" gross" Gina said in an irritated manner.
" it's not only gross, it's cross, still trying to form tush " Ben said still laughing.
" you're not serious" Gina said hitting Ben lightly.
" wow ,I feel good now, thank you" Gina said spreading her hands happily.
" you're welcome" Ben said smiling as he stared at her happy face.
" you seemed to be good at everything " Gina said now staring.
" nope" Ben retorted
" I'm the best at everything, that's the right sentence" Ben added with a proud countenance.
" must you be crude every time" Gina asked frustratingly while Ben bursted into laughter.
" I've really missed been massaged and I'm sure your hands is gonna be the best at the service it's gonna offer towards that ministration " Gina said with a wink.
" hmmm, you're right, my massage is the best you'll ever get but it doesn't comes for free " Ben retorted winking back.
" ugh, so you're asking me to pay for what you should consider as your responsibility" Gina said sulkily.
" I don't know how to massage " Ben said as he laid down on his back on the bed,with his hand beneath his head to support it.
" you're too callous " Gina said,subtly hitting Ben on his chest,but Ben didn't respond as he shut his eye.
" what's your price" Gina finally asked giving up on making Ben change his mind.
Ben with a smile lurking on his lip, opened one of his eyes, then dragged Gina's head closer to his, and kissed her deeply for two minutes,before he freed her .
" price settled " Ben said with a smile while Gina was still gasping for breath.
" you'll be the end of me" Gina retorted with a smile.
" if you haven't end me first" Ben said as he unhooked her bra ,took it off and threw it to another side of the bed .
Gina had only her bum short on as Ben refused to disassociate that from her skin.
He made her lay on the bed with her back facing the roof.
Ben got down from the bed and moved to the portion where different kind of cosmetics were placed.
He picked a tube containing oil then picked a towel from the towel rack,then joined Gina, who already had her eye shot with her lips smirked as she expect Ben to begin his magic, back on the bed.
" raise your hip up a little " Ben commanded Gina and she obeyed, slightly protruding her ass up.
Ben unbuttoned her bum short ,and pulled the zip down, then at a go,he pulled the bum short and her blue pantie down at once.
He covered her ass with the towel he picked earlier, allow each base of the towel to rest on the bed .
He released some of the oil in the tube on his palm, rubbed it together and with total subtle, he applied it on her back adding little pressure to his palm .
After two minutes of Ben's magic palm on Gina's back ,she started letting out a soft moan as all her muscles had relaxed, rejoicing to the subtle palm easing them off.
Gina's eye was firmly shot with her lip smirking as she moan softly.
Gina was already lost in the paradise of pleasure when a phone suddenly started ringing inside the room halting every operations been carried out at that moment.
" how did that got here " Ben asked frustratingly as he got up to pick the phone from a small glass cushion inside the room.
Ben recognized the code at once as he saw the caller.
" get your ass down here " Snap ordered as Ben picked the call, then drop the call at once before Ben could say anything.
" permission to murder Snap " Ben said to Gina who was staring at him , in an humorous manner.
" I'm the one who need to murder him " Gina said twitching her eye lashes frustratingly.
" that idiot deserve it " Ben said dropping the phone.
" I'll be back in a jiffy " Ben said, as he pecked Gina before exiting the room.
" how do you want your death " Ben asked Snap in an humorous manner as he got to the sitting room, where Snap's finger were busy scouring on his laptop.
" gonna tell you after you've intercepted the transportation of the kids in an underground road " Snap replied Ben without turning to look at him as he's still busy operating his laptop.
" they've been moved "? Ben asked with a surprised countenance as his expression changed
" yeah " Snap replied.
" but it's sooner than I predicted, looks like I'm not to be underrated by them again" Ben said with a tone connoting uncertainty.
" I think it's time to end this ones and for all" Snap said finally releasing his fingers from the laptop's keyboard.
" here " he said pointing at the laptop.
Ben bent down a little, to stare at what Snap was showing him.
" the mask are trying to guard this kids after what you did and probably shut down every businesses for now because of the publicity you created for them, so every agents undergoing training will have to be placed under a siege of protection ,a place where its security is impenetrable by anyone"
" Lagos headquarter's bunker " Ben said interrupting Snap.
" yeah, all the kids are gonna be transported to Lagos and after going through the data that we have ,all underground route and passage that can be used by mask for to and fro from every underground bunkers to Lagos has been detected " Ben said pausing for a while as he pointed at some coordinate displaying on the laptop.
" I've hacked into every satellites in Nigeria and deduced every heat map of all the underground passage and luckily for us, the last branch in Port Harcourt just started transporting the kids and if you're fast enough, you can intercept it at this point " Snap said pointing at a coordinate displaying on the map.
" here, I think I should be able to slow the transporter down at that point because the magnetic force of the underground is high ,all i just have to do is tap into it" Snap continued.
" so your plan is that, I eliminate everyone inside the transporter and use it as a means to get into the headquarter and explode it " Ben said interrupting Snap again.
" your IQ score is a scam ,idiot" Snap said as he shot Ben a weird stare.
" do you think the Mask are gonna leave the kids with amateur agents to guard them to the bunker after what you did last night" Snap asked rhetorically.
" you're only going there to place a lite muscoon on the transporter, that I'm going to detonate when its get into the bunker " Snap added.
" I got the plan now, thinking I'm in, they're gonna try to fish me out but won't be able to, and with the fear that I could still get in and out unnoticed, they're gonna upgrade the security system which will be easy for you to access" Ben explicated brilliantly.
" your brain is now working fine " Snap retorted.
" but how do I get to Lagos in the limited time because I don't think we've got any vehicle to make the journey in such time " Ben asked looking perplexed.
" through flight, I've hacked the airport terminal point and instead of the flight going to Lagos to leave in the next five hour, it's going to leave in the next thirty minutes ,so get your shits together now, you're going to Lagos with Gina.
" good, but what about you, are we not traveling together" Ben asked staring at Snap.
" nope" he replied.
" I can't hack in the sky ,so I'm gonna join you in lag, and act as your eye from down here.
" alright bro, let me swiftly get all my shit,I really wish to be in Lagos for another shit" Ben said before he scurried out of sight.
•••••••••••
" see ya in Lagos" Ben said to Snap as they alighted the van in front of the airport.
Ben and Gina had face cap on which covered almost every part of their face.
" follow my steps" Ben said to Gina as he head into the airport.
" stay here, and make sure your face is down" Ben said to Gina asking her to sit on one of waiting chair as he walked to the session for purchasing of ticket .
"Lagos ticket for two " Ben said to the lady at purchasing point.
" what are you paying with" the lady asked staring at Ben.
" this" Ben said handing her a MasterCard.
" done" the lady after every necessary procedures were carried out and the money for the tickets was deducted from the card .
" a pleasant journey" She said handing him the card and two tickets..
" what the f--k " Ben exclaimed as he got back to the seat and Gina was missing ,only her face cap was on the floor beside the seat.
Ben was sure an abduction had taken place, but by who??
•••••••••••••••••

Ben's p.o.v
♪ Griiiin griiiin ♪
The phone in my pocket sounded as I stood transfixed to the spot I was ,perplexed about the whole scenario.
" could it be the mask used our trap to entrap us or could it be the chinks" my thoughts were wayward as it couldn't fully process what could have happened.
I could easily walk up to the securities and informed them of the situation and they might check the CCTV to deduce what could have happened but I'm wanted and if it's the mask ,the CCTV is useless because I was sure it would have been rendered inactive when the abduction was taking place.
" what's happening " Snap asked as I picked the call through the small Bluetooth headset fixed in my ear.
" why is Gina on the highway away from the airport and you're inside the airport" he asked with a curiosity filled tone .
" how did you know she's not with me" I asked Snap.
" the wrist watch I gifted her when we departed Aminat's apartment has a tracker in it " he replied.
" I think she's been abducted " I said to him with a somber expression.
" f--k " Snap exclaimed " do you think the mask fished you out" he asked.
" I don't know, but if it's the mask then I think a sniper will be aiming at my head now or I'm probably standing on a future scraps and ashes" I replied with a tone connoting uncertainty.
" get a blind spot,let me see if I can get something from the CCTV " Snap said dropping the call.
I got myself a spot where I'm sure I can't be eliminated by a sniper.
After few minutes my phone beeped.
I extracted it from my pocket, unlocked it and saw in the notification that Snap had sent me a video.
From the video was a young handsome man who was staring at Gina as she glanced through her surrounding.
The man brought out his phone as if trying to deduce if he didn't get the wrong person.
He grinned awkwardly after he must have confirmed that it was Gina.
He had a bag strapped to his back,he took it off and took out a perfume which he sprayed on a white handkerchief in his hand.
He walked over to Gina,sat beside her and ensued in a conversation with her tho Gina tried to snub him as she concentrated her gaze on the floor.
When he was sure no one was watching, he swiftly placed the laced handkerchief on her nose and Gina's eye became blurry at once as she looked like an intoxicated fellow but her eye was blurrily opened.
He helped her up, supporting her till he took her out of the airport.
Snap's call appeared on the notification lodge, I swiped it down to pick it .
" that's the guy who kidnapped her "he said to me as I picked the call.
" he doesn't seem to be in any organization, do you think he got her for the reward " I asked Snap with a worried countenance.
" I think it's for revenge " Snap replied confusing me more. " I've swiftly made a quick and crossed search to know who the guy is and any connection he might have with the president or Gina and I got some clues " he continued clearing me a foggy membrane.
" what clue do you have " I asked him.
" from my crossed chat, this guy's name is Joy Sedulous, attended the same university with the president Gina's momma and it looked like they've got an issue or misunderstanding because this guy always react anger on any post the president make on every social media platform, even before he became the president, so this made me narrow my search down to when they're in still in school and from there, I got my answer" Snap explicated, pausing for a while.
" what's that " I asked impatiently.
" Sedulous used to be Gina's momma's guy but she was hijacked by Mr David from his life and it seems he hasn't forgotten about it and kidnapped Gina as a form of revenge " Snap briefly explained to me
" and do you know the interesting part about this saga " he swiftly added before I could chip in my contribution.
" what's that" I asked furtively.
" this guy is a kidnapper and perpetrator of many evil act such as arm robbery, assassination with his crew and goes under the code name Timber,one of the most wanted man in the country, just that no one knows what he looks like ,his biography or any information about him, just his name {Timber} was garnering him fame until he cross part with me now, was out of the country after he got a big shit that earned him seventy million naira done ,he just came back today" Snap patiently divulge every information about the guy to me.
" I think he's gonna request ransom from the president instead of killing her and we both know the president is broke now if the ransom is too high, shit might happen because the president is been monitored closely by his opposition " I swiftly reasoned Snap.
" you're right but he's the president after all,I'm sure he's gonna pull it off and he might even not pay the ransom if you get to Sedulous first. Gina has stopped moving ,I think he's gotten her to his fortress" Snap informed me.
" alright, send me the location or are you close to there" I asked Snap.
" I'm twenty eight kilometers away from the location and you're only twenty kilometers away, I've beeped you with the location " Snap said as my phone beeped.
" thank you, let's meet there and get me every information I need about the place, I can't walk in blind, got no weapon with me and safety of Gina first" I told Snap as I was about to disconnect the call.
" he's asked the president for the payment of two hundred million naira now, sending Gina's picture to him as proof" Snap said before I could disconnect the call.
" so soon" I said surprised at how desperate the guy was.
" couldn't even wait for a day or two before he start demanding for a ransom" I thought to myself as I head out of the airport
" I think he's desperate, and he want the money real quick but he's made a mistake, you have to get there as fast as you can because the idiots location has been hacked out by the president ICT team as the State granted them access to use the Trump mega 495 satellite and the securities are already heating up to leave " Snap updated me.
" shit " I exclaimed as I increased my pace.
I head straight to the parking spot, swiftly scanned for a car with high speed, saw a old model Ferrari , quickly moved closer to it, broke the driver's side glass with my elbow as I opened it from inside.
Its alarm was triggered and I saw two securities coming close towards me with bats in their hands.
I swiftly ignited the car by getting the kick wired out and did a brief connection with it.
As the securities saw that I've kicked the car, they started running towards me.
With speed I reversed back,towards them as that's the only way out, one of the securities was able to jump away to his left but the second was unlucky as he only jump on the hood of the car, rolled at its top and fell down to the front as I hit the brake.
He's groaning in pain as he held one of his arm.
Without hesitation, I was out of the park spot and on the road driving like someone participating in death race.
Wisdom's p.o.v
" I'm fit enough dad" I screamed frustratingly at my dad on phone as he seemed hell bent on not allowing me join the security team on the extraction of Gina from the one who got her kidnapped.
" you just got yourself forcefully released from the hospital yesterday, you really need to rest and " I didn't allow him to finish what he was saying before I disconnected the call and swiftly dressed up for the mission.
I knew he would be blaming himself for calling to tell me.
I swiftly made call to one of the guy on my team to ask for the location where the extraction was gonna take place but he seemed not to have an idea as he told me that only the veterans in DS were allow to go for the mission as all the military forces in the country has already been called for the extraction.
I had to make few more calls before I could finally get the location and luckily for me, I was more closer to the place.
Instead of a car,I decided to use my high powered Suzuki bike in order to get there more faster.

Flashback
" Looks like he's more smarter than I thought," I thought to myself as I swiftly descended the staircase , he planned everything ahead based on assumption and his plan worked.
The elevator door opened as I got to the third floor, I knew it's the handwork of Cyber, I rushed into it and its got to the first floor in the speed of light.
I swiftly got on my bike and with high altitude, I was speeding down to the bunker .
I suddenly got funny thought as I neared the bunker and reduced my speed.
" sweep the area thoroughly to check if there's any bomb awaiting my arrival" I ordered Cyber.
" stop " he suddenly screamed and without further ado, I jumped down from the bike because it was too late to stop the bike as I had no clue where the bomb might be, I would have gotten myself injured if I had try that two years ago .
As my bike got a little farther, I saw a dimmed red light blinking rapidly inside a gutter and boom goes the blast .
My bike was set ablaze as it exploded at once and I saw a part of it aiming at my head, I swiftly bent down to avert the disaster.
" hahahaha " I chuckled loudly.
" nice one, I love this guy " I muttered to myself.
" are you okay " I heard Cyber voice from the Bluetooth headset in my ear.
" yeah, I got lucky " I replied him standing up.
" erase my heat map ,I think that's what he's using to monitor my movement " I said to Cyber as I stood in the middle of the road.
The fire caused by the explosion was still razing high and impenetrable for me.
I knew I was losing count of time with the seconds that passed by as I stood there.
When the fire subsided a little, I dashed through it and was out on the opposite side before my cloth could make path with the fire.
I didn't stop running until I got to bunker lawn.
I swiftly the spotted where the other agents were supposed to lay in ambush for him and all ,excluding none were dead.
I was sure their death wasn't caused by the reversal hologram as no bullet wound was inflicted on them but blood was coming out of their nose ,eye and mouth which made me settle for the cause of death as poison but how he did it was something I wasn't ready to know as I informed Cyber to open the hatch.
" it has been jammed and override by another hacker" he replied me
" shit " I exclaimed frustratingly.
" is their another way to cease control of it " I asked Cyber.
" the hacker that's on it is a guru, he's shut every circuit I could have used to kick him out " he replied me.
" I'm gonna advice you to stay away from the perimeter of the bunker ,I've got a bad feeling that he's gonna explode the bunker, I think he's using the transporter to escape " Cyber added.
I didn't want to listen to him at first but decided to as I walked off the lawn.
I wasn't fully out when I suddenly felt the earth quake , I swiftly got off it and the top surface crumbled inside and the force of the explosion pushed me to hit my back on a nearby pole
Present.
" your attention is needed down here " Cyber informed me as my TV screen suddenly displayed his image.
Tho we're in the same apartment but that's his normal routine of communicating to me when he's on the board and I'm in my room.
Either he hacked to my phone, laptop"{if I'm currently operating it }or through the TV even if it's off.
" on my way " I said as I got off my bed.
I stretched out as I've been laying on the bed since I woke up,resting my back which I injured in my failed mission.
" what's it " I asked Cyber as I got closer to him as he sat in front of the board
" Gina has been kidnapped " he informed me surprising me.
" by who " I asked looking perplexed.
" a famous criminal with the code name Timber and here " he replied pointing at one of the numerous monitor fixed to the board
" here are the president private security team dispatching to the location and here" he said pointing at other monitors
" are other forces also dispatching to the location " he added while I looked more perplexed.
" how could a common criminal achieve what I couldn't do " I questioned myself as Cyber briefed me.
" what about P1 " I asked him.
" that's why I summoned you" he replied turning to look at me.
" from my information, Gina was abducted from the airport and I'm sure Ben will be with her then and now he must be on his way to save her and we've got an upper hand because we're closer to the location and you will be able to eliminate him ones and for all " Cyber explicated to me
" that's a good idea" I said exiting the scene to get ready for the mission.
Ben's p.o.v
Without any weapon except the lite muscoon inside my bag pack, I drove down the location on my phone.
Wisdom's p.o.v
With strong aura that I can save Gina and bring her home, I sped down to the location I got.
Toy's p.o.v
With the strong motive of finally eliminating P1,I sped down to the location Cyber gave to me.

Narrator's p.o.v
" I'm close to the site according to the map you sent to me" Ben said to Snap over the small bluetooth headset in his ear as he park the car he was driving.
" good, according to the heat map with me, the building consist of twenty four people including Gina,but that's the only info I'm able to get" Snap said to Ben.
" as you can see the building is located inside the forest and they're wise enough not to possess any gadget with camera, so I'm kinda blind here too " Snap added
" alright, this is how it's going to work"
" someone is coming behind you on a bike" Snap interrupted Ben informing him of Wisdom's arrival.
The route to the forest is a lone way amidst the shrubs and trees,that had been fixed their due to constant passage of vehicles there, and it led into the forest.
Ben didn't want to go further because of the risk of been found out.
" alright " Ben said igniting the car the same way he ignited it earlier.
He swiftly reverse to the left .Tuning the tyres to his right side, he drove into the shrubs, leading into the forest.
When he was sure he's out of sight of whoever might be coming, he alighted the car and grabbed its fire extinguisher and walked back to the road with his small bag pack firmly on his back.
" what are you doing" Snap asked him.
" gaining myself passage into the building without stress " Ben replied him.
" cool idea, he's gonna be there in 5,4,3 " Snap counted and Ben stood in the middle of the road with the fire extinguisher in his hand.
" now " Snap ordered and Ben sprayed the fire extinguisher content as Wisdom came into view directly at his helmet, he lost control and crashed into the forest and Ben followed him at once.
When Wisdom fell off from the bike ,Ben swiftly grabbed him up through the leather jacket he was wearing but Wisdom swiftly freed himself by making a rapid twist, then back kicked Ben.
Ben staggered back a little before he positioned himself back.
Wisdom eye widened in anger as he saw that it was Ben.
He brought out a gun with silencer fixed to its top from his gun sheath fixed to his belt.
Ben on seeing him moving his hand to his belt knew what he's aiming for ,he swiftly dash towards him and before the gun was pointed at him, he kicked it off from his hand, with his left leg which he used in kicking the gun off still in the air, he placed it on Wisdom's shoulder using it as a support to raise the second up and hit him on his head through the helmet.
Wisdom fell down and did Chinese get up at once to get back to his feet
He swiftly brought out a small knife from its sheath which he had fixed on his leg, pointing it at Ben.
Ben grinned wildly as he folded his hand into a fist ,he made motion to Wisdom to come closer and he also made the mistake of obeying the call.
He launched towards Ben with the knife in his hand,.
He attacked Ben's head with the knife but Ben was swift to move his head to his left side in order to avert it.
He also made an attempt to punch Wisdom on his stomach, but wisdom was also swift to take the blow on his leg which he swiftly raised up. Ben without hesitation hit him hard on his chest, which made Wisdom staggered back holding his chest.
Knowing he won't be able to defeat Ben ,going head to head with him, he flung the knife at Ben ,while Ben swerved to his right side to avert it, Wisdom swiftly launched at him with a punch to Ben's face, but Ben was expecting it as he swerved his head in the opposite direction, but the punch had a brief and feeble connection with Ben's ear which made the small bluetooth headset in Ben's ear to fall down and Ben was unaware of it.
He swiftly got hold of wisdom's hand, and with force dragged it down against his shoulder which made Wisdom muffled loudly in pain, Ben was about to hit him through the transparent glass of the helmet when he saw that it was Wisdom.
He had to swiftly hold his fist before it finally crush his face with the helmet glass, tho his fist had already hit the glass but only inflicting a crack on it because of his immediate stoppage.
He released his arm which he held and took the helmet off Wisdom's head.
" how are you here " he asked Wisdom looking perplexed.
" to save Gina from you " he said launching an attack at Ben. Ben swiftly bent down, made a swift turn with his leg stretched out and Wisdom fell to the ground, he swiftly got on him,had his left hand wrapped around his neck, pinning him down to the ground while his right hand was folded into a fist ,aiming at his face .
" I'm also here to save Gina, so calm yourself down or else you might be waking up in pain in an hour time " Ben threatened him.
" you've got some guys closing up on you,do you copy ,Ben, do you copy, are you there " Snap repeatedly frustratingly over the Bluetooth headset lying carelessly somewhere on the floor.
" you kidnapped her ,so what did you meant by saving her " Wisdom asked.
"She was abducted while she was with me and I think I'm gonna need your help to extract her from their den " Ben explained to Wisdom releasing his hand from his neck.
" who una be " a voice screamed at them loudly in pidgin English as some guys with guns surrounded them.
" I'm gonna kill you " Ben said hitting Wisdom pretending not to hear the guy or noticing those surrounding them
" f--k you " Wisdom said turning him over as he also started hitting him.
" una dey craze " the guy screamed at them again and they startling left themselves as they pretend to just took note of their surrounding.
They swiftly freed themselves, going on their kneels raising their hands up at once as they feigned to just notice their presence.
" wetin una they do for here " one of the guys with guns surrounding them asked in pidgin English as he walked closer to them.
" we're sorry Sir " Ben replied fidgeting.
" this ones be bolo oo " the guy facing them remarked in pidgin English and his crew bursted into laugher as they all reeked of Indian hemp.
" see as this bobo fine con fresh like ripe mango" he said touching Ben's chin
" e sure say them be pocket full pikin " he added staring at Wisdom.
" please Sir, we only chased ourselves here because he set my Aston Martin on fire because I had sex with his girlfriend and I wanted to wanted to teach him some lesson, but now we've settled our difference, please let us go " Wisdom pleaded feigning to be crying.
" I don talk am, them be butty " the guy said turning to face his crew.
" who get that power bike wey they down there " he asked facing the two, but none answered him .
" una deaf?, I say who get the bike" the guy barked at them angrily
" I'm the one " Wisdom replied fidgeting.
" so na you get that Ferrari con set your bobo motor on fire because he sama your babe " he said staring at Ben.
Ben didn't reply audibly but shook his head to affirm positive to the question.
" hahahaha ,omo see as I dey happy sha " he said turning to his crew with a grin.
" e be like say oga go collect jazz from America o , see as plenty customers just enter our hand without stress ,even the one wey we don dey target tey tey, oga just sama her in without stress " he added still facing his squad and they all bursted into torrent of laughter.
" oya come roja them inside,we go come for their machines later " the guy ordered his crew as he brought out a cigarette pack, took a cigarette out of, placed it on his lip,then flipped his wrist watch cover and use it to light the cigarette, puffing out smoke from his nose and mouth.
" is that a good plan " Snap asked rhetorically without disconnecting the call from his side, tho he already knew that Ben must have dropped it from his ear.
" please, we didn't know that we're going to meet ourselves here on the north axis " Ben screamed loudly like he was pleading to the gangs pushing them forward as his hands and Wisdom hands were on their head.
" long time no see " Ben said to himself as he didn't even remember he had the ability to hear from long distance again, hoping Snap get the coded message he sent to him.
" wait " one of the crew suddenly stopped Ben as they head to the building { Timber fortress }
" Wetin they inside that bag " he asked pointing at the bag pack on Ben's back.
" it's my private liquid bottle" Ben replied swiftly taking the bag off ,opened its zip and brought out the lite muscoon which had the shape of fancy water bottle.
He opened its lid to show them the empty inside and swiftly close it before it automatically detonate by itself.
If opened for more than ten second, the lite muscoon has the capability of detonating without its manual detonation from the control pad.
He swiftly return it into his small bag pack and return it to his back before he would be asked to dispose it.
As they're been pushed forward towards the building ,Ben sighted the pistol he kicked from wisdom's hand laying peacefully on some grass.
Calculating his movement, when he's few steps away from the gun ,he pretended to hit his legs together and fell down.
" this butty and their agric fowl behavior sef " one of the gang bemoaned as he moved closer to Ben and pulled Ben up rigidly.
" move" he barked, jerking Ben forward.
" you think say oga go free that babe after he don collect the money from presido " one of the two guys securing the back said to the second almost in a whisper but Ben could hear them clearly.
" oga go kill her after we don receive the money, cus oga they talk say he go make sure say presido cry because of wetin he do am when them they school " the second guy replied.
" omo me they fear oo ,na d reason wey I dey always pray say make we no they successful every time we don dey try kidnap that girl " the first guy said with fear protruding from his tone.
" chill my guy,nothing fit happen "the second guy retorted confidently.
The kidnapper's fortress was a big and beautiful building, standing gallantly in the middle of the forest.
It was painted with a navy green paint so as to make it hideous among the trees and shrubs.
On one of the pillar used to hold the large gate in place was a board with monitor and keypad fixed into it.
One of the kidnappers moved closer to it and pressed some of the keys.
He placed his hand on the door knob on the pedestrian side of the gate and pulled it down to unlock the gate.
Wisdom and Ben were both welcome by the furious barking of huge dogs that were chained down inside their cages.
Wisdom and Ben ran back at once pretending to be terribly scared of the dogs as they clung on to the gate like they're gonna turn to spiderman and start crawling on it.
The gangs bursted into laughter watching them before they pulled them off the gate and dragged them into the large building.
" Kingkong, so na them enter the lion den" one of the kidnappers inside the large decorated room with no chair or table said as Ben and Wisdom were both ushered roughly into the room.
Ben saw Gina sitting at a session on the tiled floor with a blank expression.
She's facing another direction , and didn't bother turning to look at her newly introduced colleagues.
And at another session were two guys and three girls shedding tears.
Ben prayed in his mind that Gina shouldn't look back or if she did, doesn't make any actions that's gonna show that she recognize anyone out of the two of them.
" yes Scorpio " the guy that was addressing Ben and Wisdom earlier in the forest replied still preying on the cigarette in his hand.
" siddon " Scorpio barked at the two of them and they both sat down fidgeting, feigning to be terrified.
" gba number family won, kia kia, ka tete dispose won " Scorpio said to kingkong in Yoruba dialect meaning" collect their family's number fast so that we can dispose them"
Kingkong hasn't been able to reply Scorpio when a guy barged into the room heading to Gina.
" oga fe fo omo president lenu " he said in Yoruba dialect dragging Gina up.
Meaning
" boss want to have sex with the president daughter.
" oga wa ooo, irumole to n je pizza ati shawama to nfi red label sin lo" one of the kidnappers in the room eulogies their boss in Yoruba dialect as the rest bursted into laughter.
Gina's expression was still blank as she was been dragged up ,maybe because she doesn't understand what they're saying but Ben understand the language well.
Gina's eye widened when she saw Wisdom and Ben but swiftly composed herself ,lowering her gaze.
Scorpio took notice of what transpired between the three but kept mute for some time staring at Ben and Wisdom.
" I think I know these two guys " scorpio said to kingkong getting his attention as he seemed to be pondering where.,but Gina had already been dragged out of the room by this time.
" no be this guy they guard the president daughter when we they go shadow her " Scorpio said finally recollecting where he knew Wisdom.
" yes oo ,na him true true " kingkong said staring at Wisdom who tried to avert their stare.
" and this one be the guy wey them talk say kidnap her " scorpio said pointing at Ben.
" oboy,you get last memory oo, na conspiracy be this " Kingkong said staring at the two guys at once.
" make we quickly eliminate them before any shit happen " Scorpio said bringing out a pistol and aim at Wisdom at once pulling its trigger and off goes a shot with a muffled sound,and in the blink of an eye, he's on the ground dead .
To be continue…
