Chapter 4 - chapter 3

" I thought you you were not interested in killing me", "not you but maybe give you a souvenir figuratively as a retribution for not falling in line". *what do you mean?", I asked still holding my restraint *remember that project of yours or should I call it school, is now under siege and at any moment my men will be striking and I know you may think since they are Supernaturals they may protect your little school and archive but we both know I'm too smart for that so hear is the deal rule on my orders and I may leave your mother and siblings out of this". I wanted to shout all sorts of names but I knew what I was doing, buying time. as at this moment it was the most valuable asset I could think of. besides Rebecca and my two other siblings were strong enough to keep our family's position on point.

after that I found myself in a bush not far from the palace sleeping next to my men but unfortunately one of them was not there I knew Lucas did what he always do to prove his point. a point to become a puppet and dwindle all that my family has been working for all those years. I contacted my mother magically and in no time she was there having a sad and a frowning face."who ?", was the first word that came out her mouth "and why did you keep it from me, you know he could have used you to get his hands on our legacy". "wait mom, how is the school?". " it was bombed with a very toxic element, I haven't figured what it is but we lost three of our students, I'm sorry." these words came fast out of her mouth that got my whole body hypnotized since my mind was still. I had just been outplayed like a dumb or maybe I was one. i wanted everyone to throw all sort of cuss words to me but everyone was sympathetic. I had just failed everyone I swore to protect. something was telling me to revive my father so that he could tell me how stupid I was. I couldn't believe it, Lucas got everything he wanted from me today and one of it was to break me.

I had to make things right for the citizens and my family. and it all began from the altercation experienced. when Lucas was talking standing close to me I threw a tracking device on his trouser, it was so small that no one even noticed and I knew he would go to the captives to make sure no alterations had taken place on his absence, so I started from my computer to decipher the location. what I saw was so unbelievable the banker was just near the palace. thats why he made me go out far from the palace so that his men could transport some students he had captured in the supernatural school. the students never went to hide in the archive to give it out so he captured them with ease and also with the help of the toxic element he gave to his men. I had to go help them and this time alone.

before I was even ready for the job my mother was in the lorry waiting for me. I had explained everything thirty minutes ago and as we were on our way in disguise was ready to land the ambush as we branched the bushy area where there was supposed to an unfathomable security was contrary to what we expected. the guy left the place totally unguarded and quiet. we went exactly where the tracker had taken us and it was definitely a bunker no one could think of.

hidden and quiet. we had no time unlocking it and the only way was destroying the entrance gate. as we expected there were thousands of innocent people majority of them afraid and had given up their little bit of hope to the culprit who was using them as the bargaining chip to get his hands on other people's fortune. and the saddest thing is that he even included small children as small as two years to his perverted disposition.

it was time now I become my true self. one of my many powers was to disguise myself into a new person and that really helped not being noticed as the president. it was only few people who knew that phenomenon which included my family,close allies and my major enemy Lucas. on every television was a face every identified as the sovereign power uttering the good news terming the abductors as terrorists. there faces all over the news, this was to setting a predicament for them to come out in public.

this was the starting point of my retaliation, the fight was to stay between the two of us but he extended it to my family the only thing keeping me togather. I had put my men everywhere searching for him. the main reason for me to give that order was not for my men to find him but for him to run away. something he didn't know was I knew exactly his hiding place. the thing that delayed me to timely attack him was to find where I can apprehend him with no one getting hurt. so the win that he got the first time we went to look for the captives was staged. I knew, in order to outsmart the genius you need to play dumb. before he could even get to his house situated across the country border which was a vast desert I was waiting to give him a "welcoming party ". like we thought from a distance a three car convoy was entering the premises. me and my men applied some sort of a herb made by mother to hide our scent, I knew he was a very old vampire and could easily get my scent. but seemed like it worked neither of them suspecte d a thing.
