As he walked back to the cell room, he sat on the bunker bed dejectedly as he thought about his conversation with Spider. He heaved a sigh and placed both palms on his face. He felt perspiration dripping down his face as memories of the past overshadowed his thoughts.He heard voices in his head and he began to see flashes of Gabriel's helpless face in front of him. He began to breathe heavily as he stood up from the bed immediately.He heaved a sigh as he sat on the cold floor slowly with his whole body soaked in perspiration. Right now, he was in the same situation that led to Gabriel’s execution, he thought as he went down memory lane.FLASHBACKHe heard footsteps as he walked into the passage. He paused for a moment as he saw some Men in black suits walking out from the left side of the passage. As the men approached him, he looked at their faces carefully and they were unfamiliar to him. He caught them staring at him as they walked past him. The looks they gave him made him quite
"You shouldn't have shut him out! We need Eden for this mission and you know it!" Ella said angrily as she looked at Gabriel's face.They were both seated in the car with Ray and two other men in the front seat."He's proving too stubborn and I don't know what came over him. I guess he's just letting his jealous attitude get the better part of him and it's not gonna be good for my mission" Gabriel said as he tried to catch his breath"Eden is needed in this mission. Sending him back home could dissarange our plans" Ray said immediately"Let him go home. I need to teach him a lesson" he insisted"Father, we can't afford to lose just because of a silly mistake. I need to give him a call right now" Ray said as he picked up his phone."Where are you right now?" He asked as the call was picked"Going back home as father instructed" Eden’s voice came through"No, I need you here" Ray said at once"I'm not taking orders from you. I'm taking orders from father!" He barked"Don't be rude, turn
She looked out of the window and let out a sigh as she saw Ray, standing some distances away from the car, making a phone call. Some of the men were out of their cars already and they could be seen strolling around the road while some were seated on the rocks along the roadside. The sun was beginning to give its light and the atmosphere became a little bit hot.She looked at Gabriel whose gaze was on his phone and he raised his face to look at her“You feel bad right now, don’t you?” She askedHe gave a sigh and a slight nod“Sweetheart, you don’t need to keep putting the pressures on me. I realize i was wrong but he is gone. Trust me, when we get home, i know how to make him feel better” he said and she smiled“You know, I don't really think Eden was being jealous. I believe he was only trying to be careful so things don't get all messed up. You know, if there is anyone we could trust with our missions, it’s Eden” she said and he nodded slowly“You’re right. He knows how many times Ra
They dragged him up from the ground and proceeded to the car amidst the rains of bullets. Just then, sounds of sports cars were heard approaching the scene and bullets could be seen firing towards the mountain tops. Shouts of Men could be heard as they were seen falling down from the mountains. The cars came to a halt almost at the same time and the doors flung open. Eden and his men swung out of the car in full motion as they shot sporadically at the men who were shooting back at them. "You, go for Gabriel while I and the others will engage the men" Alves said as he cocked his gun from where they hid behind the cars. "Go, go, go!" He ordered and Eden ducked as he ran in between the cars. "He is here! The one I've been waiting for" Ray said as he spotted Eden running from car to car "Engage him and this time, make sure he dies" his father said to him and he nodded and dashed out from their hiding spot. He began to fire at Eden who was engaging some of the men who were standing o
The first shot came and he opened his eyes and saw Pius staggering with the pistol in his hand. He raised the pistol towards him as the bullet hit him on the back. Another shot followed and it hit straight at his back head. The gun dropped slowly from his hand and he fell on the ground immediately. Eden jumped out of the bush as soon as Pius was down. He rushed towards Gabriel who was lying in a pool of blood. "No!" He cried as he saw blood covered on the surface of his belly. He dragged the jacket off his body as the blood continued to gush. "Father, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have left," he cried "You didn't leave Eden, I asked you to" Gabriel muttered in a low pitched tone "I'm sorry father," he continued to cry. "You remembered my words to you some time ago, son, there are two things involved in the life of a gangster. Either prison, or death. But in my case, I have chosen death" he said with a smile on his face which was battered with blood "No, father, no!" Eden cried. "Son,
Eden jumped towards him and grabbed hold of his hand with the rest of his body down the cliff. He held on to his hand tightly as he looked down at the water whose waves were tossing on the big rock below the cliff. "Eden, let go" he said in a calm voice as he looked at Eden who was trying to drag him up with his whole strength. "No," he cried as he held his hand tightly He looked down at the water again and then at Eden. He wriggled his hand free and his whole voice echoed around the mountain as he fell down the cliff. "No!.." Eden screamed as he sat on the ground dejectedly. He heard footsteps and he raised his head and saw the boy who had saved him earlier, walking towards him. He seemed to have witnessed all that had happened. The boy stood beside him while he sat on the ground with his arms curled around his knees. He heard footsteps again and he saw Spider and Miguel running towards him with Alves and some of the men behind them. Spider pointed his gun at the boy standing b
PRESENT He smiled as he was led into the visitors room where he could see Tracy and Juliet sitting at a table watching as he was brought in by a warder. "Hey sisters," he called with a wry smile on his face "Hey, you're getting used to your cell room I guess," Tracy joked and they all laughed "How have you been holding up?" Juliet asked with concern "I'm doing great. Any news about Jessica?" He asked and they shook their heads slowly. "I feel like she is ignoring our calls deliberately and we can't visit her at the house for now because of her father" she replied "I guess she still feels hurt over everything" Tracy put in and he kept silent. Right now, he doesn't know what to feel. Somehow, he felt hurt that she believed he was guilty and never bothered to check up on him. He waded the thought off and turned to his sisters. "So, we're here to talk about your next appearance in court. You've been charged with involvement in gangly activities which involves kidnapping, robbery,
Police sirens could be heard all over the court premises and members of the press team could be seen filling the whole place with cameras and microphones. A TV reporter could be seen in front of the court house, reporting live on TV. Security personnels could also be seen, patrolling the premises as they tried to install order in the court. As he was led out of the police vehicle, he was covered by members of the press who were trying to get further information from him. He was led into the courtroom with Spider beside him. As he was led into the dock, he smiled wryly as he saw his family seated in the front row. His eyes caught with Grace who was sitting close to Clement. Their eyes met and she smirked. He gulped and looked away from her as he saw his mother walking into the courtroom hastily. He could see her walking past Grace towards Emilio who was seated at the end of the chair. "What do you think you are doing?" Grace asked from where she sat She waved her hair backwards an
