It had never been easy going on a raid in the city with officer Ola. Jasper always found it difficult to accommodate Ola’s brandish nature and claim for authority whenever they went out on such raids. He hated the fact that they had even made him team leader on the field and more so , he hated the regular Lagos traffic and being stuffed in the van as they drove through it all.
The van was a white 2010 dodge sprinter. It had the ability to run from zero to a hundred and 80kilomeeters an hour in just 4800 seconds but this swift moving ability was of course hindered by the heavy traffic the vehicle commuted through.
The van had a conducive capacity but for some reason, the operation had decided to assign way too many agents for the raid and now it was congested, making it hard to move or breathe.
it had made the drive a very difficult and uncomfortable one for Jasper who had kept on staring at Ola furiously.
Ola had noticed the at

He had just requested his pc from zeke a few moments ago and as requested, it was brought to his office desk.He opened the laptop computer and powered it up, observing patiently as the windows presentation worked it’s to the desktop background on the screen. He quickly inserted the drive and tried to open it up. A pop up notification came on requesting for the four digit password code. at this point, maestro was disappointed but although not surprised. He had expected some sort of security protocol on classified information for a criminal investigation. He tried a few alpha – numeric entries and they didn’t seem to work. He decided he shouldn’t try anymore before he crashes the drive permanently. He had a few ideas about people who could easily bypass the password authentication through the use of brute force technology.

Nena entered her bathroom in a rush, not wanting to leave another moment to be wasted worrying about her situation on the hotel bed. She had been laying there for the past hour since she checked in . she had been too exhausted from the trip and more so, disturbed about misplacing her flash drive and all the documents it contained.She feels she had been distracted . she feels she had been careless.. sometimes Nena gets to forget that she is only just human. She tries to take the whole world on her bare hands. She had felt that she needed a shower now and laying on the bed with these thoughts weren’t helping at all. She walked into the bath tub in the bathroom and stepped into it fully immersing herself in the pool of cold water it contained.She dipped her whole self in it for a couple of minutes then raised her head slowly to rest on the ceramic framed bars of the tub.

Deep into the darkness of the road, maestro’s land cruiser SUV had been dashing through the night in the company of his convoy. Maestro was headed for another meeting with the elders. He had called for their attention once again. The chaos that were now befalling him and his business had turned him to be very uncomfortable. Most of them had been coming from things that had no control over but the elders do. They could stop being lenient with Nadia and call her to order so he can avoid a territorial war.

The company outside of maestro’s building were getting noisier and noisier by the minute but was soon put to silence the minute the director put up his megaphone to his mouth and spoke. The large sound from the speaker overwhelmed the atmosphere of the whole compound as he began saying “maestro, we know you are in there. You are heavily surrounded. You can step out now with your hands behind your head and we can make this whole process easy for the both of us”.Apparently, Nena had called Director Gambo when she stumbled on the ugly truth that her lover and fiancée was the infamous maestro they had been looking for.

Maestro retired to his apartment for the day, grateful for how the day had gone. The good news of Madinni’s execution had brought much delight to his heart. Now half of his problems were solved. All he had to do now was usurp the control of the distribution of product in her territory and still maintain order with the elders.He drove in his vehicle into the compound, pulled off his mask and stepped out of the vehicle with zeke by his side as they stepped into the apartment. The gatekeeper informed him that his fiancée was in the building and he immediately became nervous.

No this is too much. I need to get home and try to make some sense of all these’.She finally approached the apartment and parked her vehicle just outside.She rushed into the building and up the stairs. Into the room.

‘WE NEED TO TALK’ . Nena kept looking sternly at the message from Lucile on her phone. ‘ I had already sent her a photo of Dani, what could she possibly want this time’ she thought. She looked to director Gambo who obviously had no interest in what she had going on especially now that he had dismissed her and terminated her appointment on the task force.Moreover, he had more important things to worry about at the moment.The news about the interception of his team was devastating enough. At this point he was confused; this was a major setback for the maestro investigation. He walked with Jasper back into the interrogation room to further discuss their next plan of action after the unfortunate development. Nena tried to ignore the text from Lucile but then again, Lucile gave her a call instead. “goddamn it” Lucile exclaimed as she picked the call “Lucile dear, this is so not the right time for this.

The four horsemen had been a lifelong contract assassins that had worked for the BMA discreetly for years. They specialized in killings of high tier Targets . Maestro only contacted them on special occasions for special missions and this situation with Nadia Madinni definitely fell under that category.He couldn't think of a better time to call them than a time like this. Zeke who he had ordered to place the call had done exactly just that and sealed the deal with them.A man named Ivanovic had been the one to receive the call and transacted with him. Ideally, they were to pay their dues through the continental coin; a secret currency devised by the elders to aid the discretion of transactions for criminals in their community but due to his recent problems with the elders, maestro had ordered zeke to offer them payment in cryptocurrency.This new development was strange to the hearing of Ivanovic who initially protested at the proposal.

A demand that aroused due to Nadia's to sudden disappearance. Ever she was apprehended a void was created in the market and maestro took the opportunity to fill in that void.there were no longer restrictions from the Elder's who normally would've rendered their objections by now. Apparently they had bigger things to worry about at times like this.Yes, times like this meant business was good for maestro but on the contrary, he did not feel good at a time like this.

Back at the police station. Director Gambo had been furious all morning. He had been trying to get a hold of Nena on the phone but she had not been available. He was even more furious now that he saw her walking into the building. ‘this lateness is unacceptable’ he thought to himself as he walked angrily to meet up with her. “where have you been” he yelled “I have been trying to reach you all morning. What is wrong with you, young lady”“I’m so sorry director. I am actually inexcusable today. I promise it won’t happen again” “like hell it won’t” the director revolted “This is unacceptable. I have had just about enough of your indiscipline. I am taking you off the case”“what?!” Nena exclaimed, obviously surprised at the director’s rash decision. She understood he was angry but taking her off the case made no sense actually.. she had contributed immensely to the progress of this case up till this point, or at least, so she thought.

It was the photo she requested from her aunt Nena.The photo of her supposed fiancé. She opened up the JPEG file excitedly but the image that appeared after the file had downloaded left her in utter shock. The face on the image was surprisingly familiar. This was a face she knew all too well and the shock she felt now was overwhelming. She quickly dropped the phone and buried her awestruck lips behind her palms. “oh my god’ she thought aloud “could this really be? After all these years? He has shown up again?” the questions kept on flashing through her mind as she remained astonished at the turn of events.This was a blast from the past, one which had come rather unexpectedly. “I need to inform aunt Nena” she thought, as she picked up her phone to dial her Nena’s number again.There was a beep at the ring, indicating that the line was busy.
