The Return of General Williams The War 5
“Did you speak with their Head of State as I said?"“Yes, I did. He is happy to know that we are coming.”“That is good. We are leaving in a couple of minutes. Brigadier Dale is coming with us with five hundred soldiers.”“I got it. I will not like my old man to know where I am going. He may die before the war begins.”“I know. I have planned it out. We will pick up the explosives from the basement and leave for the complex. You will call him later and tell him that we will work all through the night.”“That is a good idea. What about my brothers? Samuel almost cried when he woke up and discovered that you were away. I wonder what will happen if he knows that you will be out of the country.”“I know. They will help us prepare snacks. They will be happy to know that the snacks will sustain us all through the night,” he stated and got up.George got up too and Tim tapped his back and advised him, “Run along. Prepare the old man for our departure.”“I got it.”“Informp0 Jerry. Let him ge

At Kings LandNo one notifies the deaf that a marketplace is on fire. He has eyes to see the chaos and legs to help himself. (African Proverb). It was 7 PM and the Kings Land's Second in Command was in his house with his wife while listening to the broadcast. However, he could not sweep Gen. Awe's threat under the carpet.“Two hours?” He asked himself in trepidation after watching him.By estimation, the Head of State and Defense Minister were supposed to be back or contact him. When he did not hear from them, he decided to call them. When the first call timed out, he showed worries and called again.His call was interrupted by a call from the Third in Command. Before he could pick it up, the Brigade Commander's call interrupted it as well and he had no choice but to answer.“Hello, Brigadier. How may I …?"The brigadier who was scared out of his wits due to the absence of ammunition in the country went straight to the point, “The Head of State is not back. What do we do?”“I calle

The assumption of the manager confused the two guests. They were not aware that he never linked the Head of State's broadcast to them. The derogatory remarks from the public about Kings Land and the Field Marshal were injurious to their reputation and they could not redeem it. Rather, they resigned themselves to their fate.“Let us pray that we leave Canterbury alive,” he whispered.“You just said my mind. They are unknown enemies and we ignorantly crawled into their den,” the minister responded and they focused on the television.Presently, the hunger in their stomach should wait while they watch out for what will befall them.At Laura's HouseShe was in that sad state until the close of business when she got home and hoped to find succor from her parents but what she met was beyond her. It could be likened to one who dined with Satan's big brother.“Welcome back, my dear,” her mother greeted her when she walked into their apartment.“Good evening, Mom. I should have listened to yo

At OreganyBrig. Dale and his colleagues destroyed all the buildings that were connected with Kings Land. Apart from that, they ensured that the oil wells were temporarily shut down. Their embassies and schools were pulled down as well. The number of casualties who were mostly Kings Land citizens was not yet ascertained.While they were busy securing the borders, George and his team members arrived. They teamed up and moved the borders beyond the three cities that they recovered. Things were working in their favor until the unexpected happened. From nowhere, stray bullets hit some Oregany soldiers, George and Jerry who had been following him silently on their arms and legs respectively.“Ouch!” He screamed and held his left arm.Tim was astonished. Before he could comprehend the matter, he heard Jerry shriek in agony and held one of his legs“Ha!” He exclaimed in trepidation and focused on them.“Don't panic. Okay?” He assured them.Nevertheless, they heard more gunshots and one of

“Yes. If they were burnt, we would have seen the corpses of three people on that spot,” another person confirmed.The soldier who wished to take his life calmed down and looked around. He released his rescuer and asked, “Where is he, then?”“We will search for him. He may be fine,” his colleagues said one after the other.Notwithstanding, after the young soldiers left, the two brigadiers were despondent.“How can I return without them?” Brig. Dale cried out.Apart from him, no other person knew that the Third in Command of Canterbury was with them and a big loss to his country. Meanwhile, the reporter informed the Head of State of the latest and they were heartbroken. Immediately, the minister stopped reporting.“Gosh!” The disappointed soldiers exclaimed in anguish and the minister got up.“I will meet them,” he informed the rest even though he did not know what to do when he got there.The others were overburdened and could not stop him but one of them advised him, “Be careful.”He

“What kept you?” He asked with a broad smile that dazed him.Before he could recollect himself, the brigadier walked up to them and stood in open-mouthed wonderment. Seeing George standing there was surprising enough but seeing him safe and sound was completely unexpected. Many questions crowded his mind but he could not ask because they were in public and must hide Tim's identity.“Where are the rest?” Unable to contain his words any longer, he asked all the same.“They are here.”“Is that Brig. Dale?” Tim asked.“Yes. It is me,” he answered and walked in.He turned, faced his orderly, and instructed him, “Inform the brigadier that they are here.”“I got it, Brigadier,” he answered and walked away.George locked eyes with Brig. Dale for a few seconds before he asked him, “How are you?”“I'm good, Brigadier,” he answered soundly.The Brigadier shook his head and met Tim on his seat. He was unaware of the trauma that their few minutes of absence had caused them and asked, “What kept yo

They were still laughing when the Oregany Defense Minister resumed his commentary.“Wow!” The Head of State exclaimed and began to watch while the Second in Command returned to his office.He was watching and working and after two hours, he got a call from Tim. His face beamed and he picked up the call at once.“Hello, Tim,” he greeted him joyously.“Good morning, Your Excellency. I wish to inform you that we are back.”“I'm thrilled to hear that. Welcome back.”“Thank you, Your Excellency. I will come to your office later.”“It is all right. I will be waiting.”At Tim's HouseThe old man was troubled when he realized that the two slept in the office.“He had not had any rest since yesterday,” he murmured after the breakfast.He was more troubled because he did not speak with them. Meanwhile, Samuel was not bothered because he spoke with them. He returned to his room and occupied himself with one thing or the other.“I can call him and find out how they are doing,” the old man told hi

Samuel looked at Tim who was already eating for his opinion but his face was void of expression. He looked back at George and accepted, “That will be fine. At least I can raise my school fees before the end of the holidays.”The two laughed at him and he was amazed.“You don't even know how much you would be paid,” Tim stated and he was shy.They had their breakfast quickly and afterward, George took Samuel to the basement and instructed him, “For your test, write out the names of the raw materials we have here. You are free to ask questions if you are in doubt.”“Okay, Big Brother. I will call you when I'm confused,” he accepted but George who was walking briskly to join Tim disagreed with him.“That is not what I mean. You can ask anyone around,” he said and joined Tim.“I got it, Big Brother.”He stood aside and watched them as they got into the car.“See you later,” he said not knowing whether he was happy.“Later. Take care,” they responded simultaneously.“We need to see the doc

They followed him afterward. Shortly after, they were on the premises. To their chagrin, Bright and his friend, Ted were waiting along with Collins.They saluted the Second in Command and the Minister accordingly and they returned the salute.Kay asked the General Manager, "Why have you not closed?""I can't close when my president has not," he answered him sincerely.He was pleased with him. He looked around and saw over two hundred staff members waiting for him. He concluded that George must be a good leader to attract such a gesture. Although Godwin did not comment on it, he had taken note. He watched his crew members as they set their equipment.At 7:55 PM, the Airport Manager called Kay and informed him that they would land within six minutes."Thank you for informing me," he appreciated him and continued to wait.Meanwhile, they landed a few minutes earlier and he informed him again. Without delay, they boarded the helicopter and left the airport. Not quite long, they were in th

He was on lunch when he saw George's trip. He dropped his cutlery and focused on the television. His joy escalated when he saw him granting an interview to the pressmen. He was engrossed in the television and did not know that Collins had driven into the courtyard. Before Ella walked in, the news was over, and he was surprised to see her.She was surprised to see him in such a happy mood. She walked up to him, crossed her hand on his shoulder, and kissed his temple."Welcome back, my love," he greeted her warmly.She sat down opposite him, studied his face for a clue, and answered him, "Thank you, dear. How was your day?""My day was fine. And yours?""Fine," she answered him."How did you come back?""Good afternoon, Old man," Collins greeted him."Ha! Good afternoon, Collins. Thank you for bringing her back.""It is my pleasure, Old man. I will be on my way," he informed him."It's okay. Take care.""Take care, Sergeant," Ella added."I will. Goodbye.""Welcome back, Duchess," Fran

All the same, he was happy that he cheered Bright up.Laura whose embargo on eating in the canteen would end that day, was eating in the lobby. She was ashamed of herself when she saw George's confidence. She focused on the television with her mouth agape."What is giving this boy so much confidence? Could he be the Third in Command and the President as Dad said?" She mulled over.The thought that George could be her president weakened her and stole her appetite."How will I get a husband to marry? All my efforts are failing," she said in despair.Now, she lost her appetite, stopped eating, and covered her flask. To keep herself busy until the break was over, she picked up her phone. She was not surprised when George's story popped up and grimaced. She read the comments by some ladies about George and was jealous."Imagine that? What about us?" She asked herself.At The Dome Vincent woke up and was idle - the lifestyle he hated most. Previously, he would have been on the road and wou

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
