Grandmaster took the lift to the last floor, the 8th floor.

"Hah, finally, the first contestant to make it to the top." Emille clapped his hands, a bright smile lit his face. "Congratulations!"

Emille was waiting for the Grandmaster at the top floor as the lift's door opened. He had a good number of men with him.

As soon as Grandmaster's men saw Emille, they pulled out their guns.

Emille's men immediately pulled their guns too.

"Where is she?" Grandmaster stepped out of the lift. He asked Emille through gritted teeth.

Both sides still had their weapons drawn out.

"Where is who? It's just us." Emille chuckled provocatively, turning around him to pretentiously search for the person whom Grandmaster was referring to.

"Do not play a fool with me! What do you want from her? Grandmaster took a step forward.

Two of Emille's men cracked their guns and simultaneously stepped in front of their boss.

Grandmaster's own men, when they saw the movements, they took a step forward.

    She did not wait for the others to process the situation and react. She raised herself a little, dropped the bag strapped to her arm because it was holding her back. Actually, she did not just drop it anywhere, she flung it at one of the Cartel men.Another one attempted aiming his gun at her but she held the gun, raised his hand up quickly and hit his wrist hard with the side of her hand, causing his grip on the gun to momentarily loosen. She took the opportunity to seize the gun from his hand and hit his head with it.She flung her opposite hand with the shotgun in it at one of the other men. The first guy whom she put down was struggling to rise up on his feet, she kicked his throat with her boots, removing blood from his mouth…and a tooth maybe, she did not care though.She flung the pistol she'd seized at another Cartel guy, the weapon flew past Emille, causing him to slightly move his head to the side to avoid the impact from the flying weapon.Well, his man was not swift enough

    "I'm worried, what if things don't go as planned and someone gets hurt?" Brant asked."People will get hurt obviously, but only the people who deserve it." Emille stated nonchalantly."Jeez, y'all are creepy. How did I get mixed up with it all?" Brant asked, more to himself.Emille, whose eyes were locked on the monitor, turned to look at Brantley, "You got mixed up with it all the day you decided to fall in love with her." Emille stated, motioning to the monitor projecting Mila."Oh, I forgot to mention, I was leaving my life peaceful and minding my business until she showed up, she brought herself into my life and made herself my secretary." Emille raised his brows, "she made herself your secretary? How is that even a thing?" Emille asked in disbelief.Mila was still setting up the dynamite on the door. It was a heavy metal door, hence it was gonna take more than one dynamite to blow it off."Yeah, she crippled my secretary's mother and threatened the woman to insist that her daugh

    "I'm not leaving this place without Brantley and Dominique." She stated firmly, holding his gaze challengingly."Then you leave me no choice." He raised the gun at her.She did not have the strength to fight back. She watched him, his eyes were void of any emotions or feelings. He stared back at her like a soulless body, empty but breathing."Then so be it," Mila whispered softly and sadly."I don't think so!" A gun cracked behind Grandmaster.Mila enlarged her eyes before narrowing them again and the other man pointing the gun at Pops.Pops looked unbothered. He did not even bother turning to look at who was behind, not that he knew the voice."You have the guts to point a gun at me?" An evil smile grazed his face. He posed the question without even bothering to gauge who it was."And I'll use it if you don't drop your weapon." The voice stated firmly.Pop narrowed his eyes, 'what happened to my men?' he pondered.' weren't they supposed to be behind me?' "What the hell are you do

    She dropped her bag and shotgun. She cracked her neck. "Bring it on then." She winked her fingers at them, inviting them.They looked at each other, they were all surprised that she'd choose to go hand to hand with them rather than weapon to weapon.Each of them saw it as an opportunity for a promotion or the Grandmaster's recognition. *Defeat the Princess?* Damn yeah, they were in.One after another, they tugged their guns safely in their waist bands.The first guy launched towards Mila with his fist. She quickly pulled out one of her star blades and sliced the approaching fist. It took the guy by surprise, he did not see it coming…none of them did. They thought that it was supposed to be a fair fight.He hissed and took a step back, staring at his bleeding fist, then back at her. She smiled evilly, "What, are you tired already?" She taunted.He furrowed his brows, with his good hand, he tried to reach for his gun..she quickly sprang forward, kicked his hand and slid on her knee

    "Huh, the student is now better than the teacher, huh?" Mila stood up while wiping imaginary spittle off the. corners of her mouth.Freya had a deep look of concentration on her face, but a little confused frown popped up on her face when Mila spoke.Mila threatened her body, "Are you surprised? I trained you well, didn't I?" Mila smiled."You sure have some issues upstairs, but I've got no time for your crazy delusion right now." Freya stated, bracing herself for the fight.Mila chuckled dryly, "I like the sound of that. I have got no time either," Mila said.Unlike Freya, Mila was relaxed. She knew that Freya had the advantage of both arms functioning properly. Mila could not afford to stress her injured arm, and she had to get Dom and Brant out of here as soon as possible.Both women held each other's gaze, waiting patiently and calculating who ever made the first move…Freya did. She launched a kick punch towards Mila.Mila dodged Freya's kick and blocked her leg with her good arm.

    As soon as she came into view around the corridor, she was welcomed with a flying bullet.She cracked her shotgun and firedIf these men were here, it only meant that they were protecting someone Her first thought went to Emille. She thought they were protecting him. 'If I can get him, then I'll be able to pinpoint Dom and Brantley with ease.'She took cover.The men returned fire.She stayed behind the wall until the fire stopped, then she fired two more shots.Either party was firing randomly, no one was actually able to aim.The Grandmaster decided to follow the sound of the gunshot. But due to the effect of echo and refraction of sound, it actually led him in the opposite direction.Mila and the two men went back and forth, spraying bullets everywhere.Dom could hear the intense shelling from behind the door.Meanwhile, as soon as Grandmaster's reinforcement saw SWAT, they took cover in the Bundermann house and began exchanging fire with the police.This group was armed with sophi

    She kicked the door open."Dom!" She whispered."Fabby!" Dom called weakly.Fabiola ran towards him, she tried to support him to stand up. "Can you walk?" She asked softly.He drew in a deep breath, "I think so. Get me a gun!" Even in his pain, his voice still held dark authority."You sure? How about you stay here and then I'll come for you later?" Mila suggested."Am not dead, am I?" Dom looked at her. He could barely open his eyes widely due to the swellings on his face…his whole body."No, you are not!" "Good, then do not ask me to sit here and do nothing!" He leaned on the wall and tried to balance his weight on his legs."You are bleeding." He remarked when he noticed the cut on her arm."Nothing serious, just a flesh wound." She brushed it off."By the way, do you have any idea where Brantley is being held? They got him too." Mila looked at him."That jerk! Don't bother about him, they would not hurt him." Dom stated nonchalantly and began limping his way out."What do you mean

    "Stop this madness right now!" Grandmaster ordered.Fabiola did not stop."Mila!" Brant came rushing in. "Mila, you will kill him, stop!" He tried to pull Mila off Emille. She still would not stop"He is your brother!" Brantley yelled.Grandmaster's eye's bulged open.Even with the pain, Emille still rolled his eyes, 'This guy really has a problem keeping secrets.' Emille thought.Dom, who was at the verge of passing out, sat upright as though an electric revival current had been passed through his body.Mila, who was about launching another punch on Emille suspended her fist in the air.She furrowed her brows, "Carlson?" She looked down at Emille.She went for his neck, touching and pinching it, trying to take off the mask he had on."No, your real brother." Brant stooped down beside her.She looked at Brant and then at Emille who had a bloody face under her."Hi." He flashed her a smile with bloody teeth.Grandmaster sighed and took a step forward, drawing everyone's attention. "Don'

Silence.Emille clenched his fist beside him.Even though Mr White only walked in, he was sitting on needles. He had his secrets, he knew what was going on. "We have the videos."

    COURT TALES OF TRUTHFourteen minutes.It was almost time……"It is already time, your Honour, we should proceed." Grandmaster stood up and said.That was the advantage of representing yourself."We still have some more seconds, your Honour." The prosecution quickly added.The judge nodded. Grandmaster stood up to say something again, but his words were interrupted by the loud opening of the door.Everyone's attention was directed towards the door.One after another, all those who were against Grandmaster released breaths they never knew they were holding…surprisingly, even the judge.Disappointment was evident on Grandmaster's face.Dr Edgar accompanied Mr Walborn in the courtroom. Mila and Freya waited outside.When Brantley did not see Mila in the two-man procession, he immediately stood up on his feet and went outside."Which of these men is the supposed witness?" The judge asked even before Dr Edgar and Mr Walborn could reach the front of the courtroom.Dr Edgar indicated that i

    THE CLOCK IS TICKING"Can the prosecution explain to the court why your said witness is not yet available?" The judge asked. She was getting impatient, it was evident."Technical transportation issues." The state lawyer responded.He leaned towards Emille and asked, "what is keeping your witness?" He asked in a whisper."What is holding him back is the only reason why they would not want him to testify, but don't bother, he's being escorted by one of the best bodyguards." Emille replied."Excuse me." Emille stepped out of the court to call for Mila.Brantley had arrived in the court too. He was worried, not that Mila could not take care of herself, but because he loved her, so it was natural for him to worry."What the hell is going on?" Emille asked in a concerned tone as soon as Mila answered."We got company." Mila replied."Do you need more refreshments?" Emille asked."I got it, I guess water would be enough to entertain them." Mila said over the phone."Good then, tell me where

    THE AMBUSH.Randy rode in another car, tailing closely behind Mila.When she got to her condominium, she did not step out, rather she called Dr Edgar to bring Mr Walborn outside.Dr Edgar had personally selected a suit for Mr Walborn. The different clothes made him look 10 years younger."You look handsome, Mr Walborn." Mila smiled as she held the door open for him."Thank you, child. At least this doctor here has fine taste in quality clothes, only if he could put those skills to what I put in my stomach." Mr Walborn glared at Dr Edgar. Mila could not help but laugh."You look handsome too." She mouthed to Dr Edgar when Mr Walborn got into the car. Dr Edgar was dressed in a simple shirt and trousers, he had a clean shave. That alone made him look really different."Thank you. You look stunning yourself." Dr Edgar complimented back. Compliments were being poured at randa."Thank you for coming with us." Mila smiled at Dr Edgar."I have to do my job as a babysitter." Dr Edgar gave a sh

    NAKED SLEEPOVERThe newly bonded family decided to spend the night together.Carl and Phelix were pals, they warmed everyone's heart, especially Mila because she never known that he was good with kids. She had no idea whether or not he loved kids, she did not even know what he loved.Pops had ruled their lives in such a way that all their likes were buried within them and only what he approved, that was what they did…to his face though.She allowed the cold water to run down her body. Everyone together, the smiles, the crying, the hugs, the laughter…this is what she'd ever wanted, not tension, the type of atmosphere she grew up being used to under Pop's roof.It was less than twenty four hours, and everything changed. For once in her life, she did not have to worry about tomorrow. Only if everyone she loved could be here…Only if Dom had lived to experience this different breeze…even just for a day."Fuck this life!" She cursed, turned off the shower, threw a bathrobe on her wet body.

    BRENDA IS SCARYBrantley laid down on his bed, staring at the ceiling while he pondered about what Brenda told him earlier.Brenda was nosy, everyone knew that, but she wasn't a liar. She could be blunt sometimes, but the kid sure knew when to keep her mouth shut.She was smart too, probably more than all of them…well, except him, he had a photographic memory after all.He knew that she would not tell him all those things except something more was going on in that house. He had plans on saying hi to his mom before leaving, but he left without saying a word. He felt guilty, but he could not do otherwise.With the revelation, he wasn't sure to face anyone, especially his father.He needed time to think. He could not just jump into conclusions, he had to get more details about everything before concluding."She said that she was pushed, by who? Who would want to hurt you?" He pondered out loud.'Then why did she keep quiet only to say it now?' He thought."Who are you going to see in th

    WHAT BRENDA KNOWS'Why do good men die and the selfish monsters live?' Brantley pondered as he walked down the corridors of his father's house empty mindedly."Do you want to bulldoze me before you notice that something is in front of you?" Brenda was starting in front of him, with her short self and crutches.He halted abruptly, for real, he had not taken note of the girl."Oh, I see you've upgraded to crutches. They're cute." Brantley rubbed her head like a kitten.She supported her weight on one crutch, freed her other hand and used it to slap his hand off."Why are you always fighting with father?" The youngest White asked.Bran was stunned, he did not expect that question from here. He was speechless for a few seconds, trying to think of an appropriate response to that."We were talking, maybe a little of a disagreement, but we were not fighting." Brantley looked down and said."You were loud!" She raised one side of her lip, confident about her statement and presumption."Wha

    SWEET REUNION"Nice meeting you." Carl forced a smile.The expression on his grandparents' faces changed immediately.He sunkened his shoulders, 'Just as I had expected, outcast!' The words reverberated in his mind.He wished he could turn back the hand of time to just a 5 minutes ago, he'd make sure to get away from here and prevent none of this from happening."Mason had a son?" Papa Rivers looked at his wife. "Isn't he handsome? He looks like an angel." Mama Rivers praised.Carl raised his brows. 'Did they mean the opposite of what they said, or…he had judged the situation wrongly.He looked at Mila, she smiled at him."How old are you, boy?" Mama Rivers asked."I'm 28 years old, ma'am." Carl held his hands together in front of him as though he was for a religious procession.Mila raised her brows and hung her mouth open at his lie."Nonsense, don't call me ma'am. I am your grandmother. Come here!" Mama Rivers rebuked him and hugged him."Just for the record, he is still 27 years o

    OUTCAST"Why do you want to see Fabiola?" Brantley decided to ask at one point. He just refilled their tea cups.Mama Rivers who was about raising her cup to take a sip, paused mid way. She stared at her husband who also had the same look on his face."Oh, we knew her when she was a kid. Since we were in town, we decided to drop by." Papa Rivers replied."Oh, ok. I see." Brantley nodded. There was an awkward silence among them."We'll see your father and enjoy the view a little before going back." Papa Rivers added."I will be glad to show you around town. I bet they'll be so much to entertain both of you." Brantley smiled."Yeah." And there goes the silence again. ________"I got a text from Brant, he said that the package was at my doorstep." Mila looked at her brothers. They were just touching down back in Limesville."Just as we thought." The ever nonchalantly Emille said.Carl was silent."I bet they got my address because of the media."
