At Tim's HouseHe returned and met the worried George at the gate. However, he attributed it to the shock of the averted accident and asked, “Are you all right?”George searched him before he answered, “I am fine. Are you?”Tim understood his worry and answered, “As you can see, I am fine. Change your wears and take a rest. We will talk later,”“Okay, Boss.”At Laura's HouseHer parents could feel her happiness when she walked in and inquired at once.“Wow! Has your President resumed?”“Did you mention my reward to him?”“It is not what you think, Mom and Dad. Turn on the television,” she advised them.Her father turned on the television, and they focused on it. At that point, there was another program going on and her bewildered father asked, “What about the program?”“This is not the program I am referring to. That stupid representative of my President was attacked by unknown truck drivers.”“Ha! I hope they killed him?” Her mother asked excitedly.“Not yet, Mom. But I know he will
“I don't know but it won't be difficult to trace. I will check all the forensic science centers in the city.”“That is good to hear. Do that quickly.”“Consider it done, Your Excellency.”Gen. Hanklin was temporary relieved and hopeful.“That disrespectful Sergeant will not see the end of tomorrow. He survived today by sheer luck but tomorrow, I will not miss it,” he hissed and began to harness other plans.He was in that state, when George's second broadcast popped up. This time, he was talking and relishing his cup of tea.Gen. Hanklin stopped in his tracks and watched the video to the end. “What! A Sergeant, not addressing me properly,” he squawked. If eyes could kill, he would have killed George several times.To rub it in, the Head of State of Savannah commiserated with Gen. Richmond and the good people of Canterbury on the unfortunate circumstances.(Attention: Gen. Felix Canterbury. The Head of State of Canterbury. I, Gen. Muncie Tarter and the good people of Savannah, express
“That is good to hear. How will the Aptitude Test look like tomorrow?”“We have the Military Test Developers. They often set the questions and upload them on the website a day to our examination.”“Okay?”“Since this is impromptu, I will only repeat the questions that we have on the website.”“In other words, what you are saying is that they are familiar with the questions. Am I right?”The Manager misinterpreted his reason for asking. He smiled dryly and answered, “Yes, Sgt. Young. But we can inform the test developers to set fresh questions if you don't want us to use the old ones.”“That will take some days and delay the interview.”“You are right. I recommend that we use the previous questions.”“That's good to hear. The exercise is just to test whether they are still interested in the organization and nothing more. Repeating the questions is not bad.”“I thought as much.”“Will it be handwritten?”“Sure. Since they are here. There will be no need for an online test.”“It is all r
At The Clinic Tim was certain that he had spoken his language and he would yield in no time. The man mulled over his previous statement. - 'I decide whether you should live or die.'Not only that, his last statement showed that he was a deadly insurgent and was not to be overlooked.“What is the name of your fraternity?” The driver asked Tim after deliberating on what had happened between that day and the previous day.“You are not to know unless we sign a bond but for your information, we have served as undercover for many countries. If we had met the Head of State of the South Coast, Savannah would not have defeated them,” Tim spoke with precision and the driver was excited.He mulled over his proposal and concluded that his leader would be interested in partnering with such a rugged man.Meanwhile, Tim realized that he had captured his interest and he would succumb forthwith. He upped his game by getting up and pretending to leave.“Wait. Do you wish to leave me here?” The driver
They were arguing among themselves when his phone beeped with a message and he was attracted to read it since it would not warrant him to speak. Instantly, he brought out his phone from his tattered bag and looked at the message. He frowned when he noticed that it was from an unfamiliar contact.“Who is this?” He asked himself and tapped on the message. He had goosebumps when he saw his name and mumbled, “The person knows me very well,” and read the message.(Hope, Porous sent me to you. He wished to let you know that he was not killed in the inferno. Contact me if you wish to see him).Cold sweats covered his forehead at once and he read it again. Meanwhile, the passengers were still arguing.“I'm waiting for the outcome of the investigation.”“I'm also waiting. I want to ascertain whether that driver was dead or alive.”“I can't wait to hear that.”“Attendant. I wish to get off,” Hope requested and attracted the other passengers. They focused on him and waited for the bus attendant
Gilbert was bewildered and lost of the right thing to do. He was transfixed by the astonishment.“Who will not be afraid of Sgt. Young even in his absence?” He asked himself and sat down.He watched the video to the end and discovered that it was in repeat mode.“Sgt. Young is a smooth operator who can kill silently,” he said and felt for Laura despite their bickering. In the toilet, Laura wept bitterly for about an hour before she composed herself and walked back to the office but could not look at Gilbert's face. She believed that he was happy over her plight.At The Accident SceneTim had been monitoring Hope's movements. He saw him at the accident scene watching the burnt trucks like the other onlookers with a pretentious awe.“One would think he is a beggar and offer to help him,” he murmured and walked out of the house.“Get ready, Richard. We are going to the accident scene.”“Okay, Boss,” he responded and put his handgun into his breast pocket and held his rifle firmly. Befor
With their gentleman's agreement, Hope opened up, “We have been here for more than two weeks. Since the country helped Savannah to defeat the South Coast, the President contracted us to bring down the Head of Gen. Felix Richmond.”“We are here on the same mission. I have been here for two years after Gen. Sidney McDonald and his men massacred their enemies during the last war. The easiest way to achieve that is by enrolling as a student in their most prestigious academy and it has paid off. As you can see, I have penetrated them. They trusted me so much.”“Yes. You have achieved a lot for yourself. To enter the Headquarters without restrictions is not a child's play,” Hope stated.He continued his story and they listened attentively.“I'm glad that you have seen things for yourself. His retirement from the military was caused by me. The new General and the Third in Command is my ally and with you by my side, it is time to strike.”“Ha! You have achieved a lot. You have our support.”“T
Gilbert answered but Laura did not and the Secretary attributed it to a lack of home training. Capt. Jaja moved swiftly to the President's door but Gilbert stopped him.“The President is not in his office,” he informed him.“Oh, no! Where has he gone to?”“He stepped out,” Gilbert who thought that he was still in the complex, answered forthwith.The Captain furrowed his brow and said, “It's all right. I will wait for him.”He walked to the couch and sat down while Mary did the same thing. At that point, they looked at the television and could not decipher the program that was playing out.However, the secretary was able to connect the dots after watching her first and second comments. (It serves him right. Idiot. He thinks he is the President.)(Shame on you, Sgt. Young. I have reapplied and must be retained. Idiot.)Instantly, she looked at Laura who could not look up from her desk, and suddenly began to laugh. To avoid disrespecting her Boss, she got up at once.“Excuse me, Boss,” s
At Raino Airport The team landed after seven hours. They looked at the General, who was sleeping soundly, and wondered what to do."I can wake him up," Richard volunteered and did.George got out of the aircraft by walking confidently down the staircase followed by Jerry and Silas. At that point, many media houses had their beam lights on him. After them, the next person they saw was a disheveled Gen. Anderson, who was in cuffs. Richard guided him until he stepped on the last staircase. Tim got out, too, and adjusted his cross bag.George led them until they got to the tarmac. Before Gen. Anderson crossed, Richard unlocked the cuffs and retrieved them. He gave him an arm salute and as usual, he ignored him.Before they could turn, a Raino soldier cuffed him at once. The reporters were disappointed. They thought they would walk to the lobby and grant them an interview. Since they did not, they ran after them. When they caught up with him, they began their interview, "Welcome to Rai
At The Canterbury Defense Academy The cadets were in the mess room having their breakfast when they were watching the broadcast. Gerald and Samuel became cold at once but concealed it. Although they were still with their phones, they could not call Tim or George for fear of being reprimanded for disturbing them. Gerald ate his food as though he was not disturbed. Afterward, he walked to Samuel's section and met him staring at his food and lost in thought. Despite that, he would do nothing; his presence could assuage his anxieties. "Eat your food," he encouraged him.Samuel was startled by his voice and looked up. He smiled dryly when he saw him and said, "Okay."He watched him as he finished his food and got up.Now, everyone was out of the mess room and walking to their classrooms. It was time to speak on the broadcast."Maj. Young would have separated his head from his neck. Foolish man.""I don't know why they hate us.""What was the driver's offense?""I wish I knew. He wished t
At Tim's House George can take everything but not coming home and not meeting Tim. His countenance changed when Collins stopped in front of the foyer and he got out of the car. They saluted him accordingly and he returned the salute. He walked into the parlor and was disturbed by a message. He checked out for the sender and sat down when he noticed that it was from his father.He punched the message and smiled when he saw the picture of the car."Beautiful," he said and admired it.He read the message and was happy with their progress."Wow! He has spoken with his parents-in-law. That is good," he pointed out.He vacillated over calling Tim to find out his whereabouts."He may be too busy, and I don't want to disturb him," he said, got up, and headed to his room.After changing his clothes, he laid on the bed for a nap. He woke up a few minutes before 6 PM and concluded that he was back. He was about to leave his room when he got a call from him. He picked it up anxiously and greet
"Yes, Mom and Dad. We indicated our interest to get married today.""Wow! I thought you would never marry, Ella," her mother teased her.She laughed softly and responded, "It is not so, Mom. I have found the person I love and I am getting married. That is it.""Ha, Ella. I can't believe that you are talking about marriage. How is the man?" Her mother asked her curiously."Is the man handsome?" Her father asked her jokingly and she laughed aloud."I can't wait to see the man who is worthy of your love," her mother added."We shall see. Speak with my husband," she said."Are you with him?" Her mother anxiously asked her."Yes, Mom. He heard everything you said about him."Before her mother could react, she handed the phone over to the old man. He looked at her happy face before he spoke."Good day, Mother-in-law. I am pleased to speak with you."'So it is true?' she mumbled before she greeted him, "Good day, my in-law. I'm happy to hear from you. How are you?""I'm good. And you?""We a
At The Christchurch DomeVincent was only following them like a sheep being led to the slaughter. Left for him, he would love to be with his family. When Tim stopped, he was hesitant to get out of the car."Here we are," Richard said and got out of the car.He expected him to do the same thing. When he did not, he opened the door for him and said, "Come out."He obeyed and he shut the door. He led him to the foyer while Tim called the Second in Command.When he picked up the call, he greeted him, "Good evening, Tim. What's up.""Good evening, Your Excellency. Are you still in the office?""No.""It is okay. I took the driver away from the hospital. Dr. Morgan was responsible for the mix-up.""Oh, my God! Where are you?""I'm at the Dome. He is safer here.""Wait for me. I'm still around.""It's all right," he said and the call ended.He got out of the car and joined the two in the foyer. Incidentally, Vincent's phone rang, and he tried to pick up the call."For now, no calls until we
Nevertheless, the media crew parked in front of the hospital and waited for instructions from the Minister."I will let you know what to do," he informed them."We got it, Boss," they answered him simultaneously.The three of them followed Tim who was leading the way. At that time, he had ensured that his secret camera was on.Instead of seeing Dr. Morgan in his office, he led them to the ward hoping to catch the caregiver or anyone responsible for the act. He pushed the door and walked in at once and the others followed.Dr. Rochford was startled and he looked up. He was frightened to see three high-ranking soldiers with unhappy faces. Meanwhile, Vincent woke up when the door creaked and focused on the soldiers. He suspected that they had come for him and sat up. To get the truth from him, Tim smiled broadly, and Dr. Rochford, who they did not recognize,e, was surprised to see that for the first time."Good morning, Vincent," he greeted him.On hearing his first name, he assumed tha
A broad smile flickered across his lips and he mumbled, "That little boy of yesterday is now taking care of his father. I can't believe it."He looked at Ella, who was sleeping soundly beside him, and his eyes were wet with tears of joy.Thereupon, he began to count his blessings, "The Lord has rewarded me according to my heart's desires because He has seen the cleanness of my hands. Wonderful son and a caring wife. My Dukedom has been upgraded and restored. Above all, the Young man is there for me. What else will I ask from God?"Afterward, he sent a message to Tim and informed him of the allocation. He tossed his phone aside and bent to kiss Ella's temple. Suddenly, his phone rang and woke Ella from sleep."Who is this?" He asked himself and picked up his phone."Mr. Watson," he said and looked at Ella who was waiting to know the caller."The car dealer," he explained and picked up the call."Hello, Mr. Watson.""Good day, Your Grace. We are close to your palace," he informed him."
Meanwhile, George was bitter that he addressed him wrongly and would not allow him to go without being reprimanded. He smiled dryly and answered him, "Not immediately, Gen. Anderson. I will do that after I get justice for the taxi driver you wished to strangle to death."Before that time, he was not aware that he was discovered. Subsequently, he was distressed and wished to die. Just like in a movie scene, he began to faint, but Valentine, who was about to lock the tailgate, grabbed him. Cpl. Barton and Jerry noticed it, walked to him, and helped to steady him."You can't die now," George snarled and gave him a hate look before they walked him to his cell. Richard followed him and unlocked the cuffs and got them back for Tim. He did the same thing for the other suspects and joined the General Manager and George."This is unbelievable," the General Manager pointed out."Just imagine that. Who would suspect that he was hiding there?" Richard responded."See you later," Richard said an
To avoid more questions, he got up and requested for lunch."Kindly find out if Francis is through with the lunch.""Oh! You are famished," she said and walked away."George must have done this," he told himself.Suddenly, his phone beeped with a message and he was distracted. He looked at the sender and his face beamed with delight."Wow! The allocation," he stated joyously. Shortly after, Ella walked into the room and informed him that lunch was ready.At The Second in Command's Office While Richard and Valentine were sitting in the Hilux, Tim got into the clunker and informed him via a text that they should leave for the complex at once while he went to see the Second in Command. He acknowledged it and informed Valentine, "We are going to the complex.""I got it, Major," he said and drove off.Tim informed George to expect them before he drove behind them. He arrived at Kay's office with a sad demeanor and he prepared himself for the worst. He saluted him hurriedly and he cut th
