I just wanted to tell you something very important " Ziri replied "

Ziri went back home but everywhere was locked, but he didn't bother because he has started the spy training and has acquired some equipment.
He opens his bag and brought out a pair of stockings and gloves, he removed his shoes and wore them , they were magneting with the wall and made climbing easier for him.
He went into his compound and started climbing the wall of his house , he was going towards his dad room which was at the uppet floor, he kept climbing and getting closer but he was losing his stamina, he was trying his best not fall down, immediately he got to his dad window ,he pushed it and it opened ,he quickly jumped inside.
Freeze" his dad shouted"
Damn it" Ziri swing his hand down and turned around "
How the hell were you able to climb this building, for the past three weeks you have changed to something else, you have been doing a lot 0 of crazy things and you have been coming home late, you don't even spend time with your friends anymore.
Now hand that bag over to me.
Ziri gave him the bag" Dad I want to be a soldier and I have a set of new friends and I use to go to the barracks for training.
I want to grow powerful and protect you ,mom ,my friends ,my future wife and children.
Ziri dad smiled and look at him "You are too small for this , you just ten years Ziri"
Dad ,age is nothing but a number, I am soory I took your gun but I am famished I need to eat"Ziri sighed and touched his forehead before living "
Your friends are bad people .
You don't even know them and you are calling them bad people "Ziri responded and went down stairs"
*****
For the next two days which was Friday and Saturday ,Ziri was grounded, his parents locked him in one of the rooms.
On the third day he went back to school but couldn't found Dandy, when the school closed he rushed to Dan house but it was lock and deserted, he quickly rushed to their training club but was shocked when he got there .
Everywhere has been burnt down, he asked the neighbors what happened and they told him that there was a shoot - out, soldiers came to arrest Captain nerd and his gang members but they attacked the soldiers. Some of the members died and the ones that survived were arrested.
Ziri lost his appetite and became depressed, he was always crying at school and locking himself in his room at home.
One day, he remembered the good times he used to spend with Dan and started crying again and a teacher was teaching.
Hey you that is putting your head on the desk , if you are not interested in the class get outside "The teacher ordered Ziri out"
Ziri stood up and left , tears was all over his face. Kelvin stood up and followed him.
Where are you going"the teacher asked Kelvin "
Am sorry but am aren't interested"Kelvin answered nonchalantly"
Let's continue our class and leave this idiots alone.
Ziri, you don't have to be doing this to yourself
Shut up your mouth before I strangle you "Ziri scoffed at him"
Captain Nerd would be facing the court next tomorrow, your cult is charged for child abuse, bulgary and murder ."Kelvin told Ziri " the children were sent back to their parents while the orphans are with the government.
What of Dandy"Ziri asked "
Haaah" Kelvin sighed", I didn't wanted to tell you this , I just want to do it so you would be able to come over this depression, Dandy attacked the police men and they shot him, please just come over this, depression cannot change the past.
How did you know this "Ziri shouted ,clenched his fist and gripped Kelvin shirt by the neck"
I am suffocating "Kelvin said"
Answer me"Ziri screamed "
My dad told me
What did he tell you, how was our group exposed.
Shortly after you joined the group, your dad could see changes in you ,you became brave and aggressive, your dad hired a spy to monitor you and the spy joined the gang.
What is his name.
It is Drake , but don't try to do something stupid, your dad won't take it likely with you.
So my dad is responsible for the assault.
He did it to protect you Ziri , he has been hesitating to call the police but the day you climbed a three storey building and stole his gun, he decided to go ahead, this is not your fault, don't able yourself for this.
Thanks for the information.
I picked your bag from the dustbin and your notes are updated, just see me as a brother, if you need a shoulder to lean on,my shoulders would be ready"Kelvin said and patted Ziri on his shoulders "Ziri sililoquized and stopped recollecting his childhood memories, he got off the roof and run to his hostel.
Frank and Richard were reading a book and arguing about something in the book.
Frank, I need to see General Bernard" Ziri said"
