Chapter 41: the breaker

Everything was in an uproar, producing loud noises and resulting in flash movements, similar to a state of absolute madness and havoc. The intense powerful vibrations and echoes from the earth, depicting the unmistakable elements of commotion. How does one particularly define chaos? Maybe as a mega potent trigger of an overactive mind, undergoing battles with an inner active self but what happens when that war is inside out? It's almost like chasing a dream that is not yours to actualize and definitely, seeking an inner peace becomes futile as the internal and external responses you require are automatically the chaotic circumstances that determine your thoughts and feelings. I felt cramped up amidst all the turmoil, appearing to be like I couldn't breathe as the rushed actions made the world around seem as though it was rotating inwardly but like a silent spark or trigger, my feet set in motion instantly. "We are under attack, seize the area!" A deep voice bellowed out the

Chapter 42: the breaker II

"The world should be rid of vermins like you." The words sprouted from her lips in resentment and radge. She still thought that because I dressed like those monsters, I was no doubt amongst the men who had so obviously humiliated and abused her. "Stop acting so difficult and listen, there's not much time!" I shared my testy patience just as she crossed her arms in front of her, looking more perverse than ever.On my way to stand, her foot connected with my chest, pushing me firmly back to the ground. "There should be enough time for me to finish you off," she began, using more force to press her foot to my body. I was getting frustrated already and the worst part was that, there was nothing that was going to change her made up mind."D3 Agent, Lade Adenuga of the ICS," I revealed and for a second I had thought her strong countenance would falter but instead, she appeared to even be more determined. "If that's supposed to counter my thoughts then I'm afraid you've been mistaken. I se

Chapter 43: the breaker III

"Ah, I see. No wonder you're so big headed and bossy," I commented and just as expected, a slight whack connected with the back of my skull."Misogynist," she scoffed, etching on her face a deep scowl. It was absurd that in spite of the formal and serious moment, a faint verbal slapstick still laced it's way through. "We should focus," I voiced after I had observed that she too was on the verge of displaying a sign of amusement. Her eyes met mine, there weren't seeming as bloodshot as it was upon first meeting. They looked clearer with an indeterminate shine to them. "Borno military collapsed a long time ago, how long have you been here?" "It's been two years since they raided and seized this province. I was the only one who survived the attack. Men, women and children perished, Agent. They were my family," she unravelled, the force of sorrow that overtook her tone was enough to be the breaker upon any humane soul. I swept my gaze over her once more and my jaw clenched on insti

Chapter 44: the kahuna

The day had aged earlier than normal, since the continuous burst of thick black smoke had dirtied the sunset clouds before the night could. Currently, I was on the run again, having an indeterminate number of killers on my trail. Jane took the lead, but even so, I was at her side doing away with close packed tall grasses and shrubs using the blade she had produced initially. After one or two seconds, they commenced the projection of long ranged shots which we narrowly and closely dodged every time it arrived at unfathomable speed. I couldn't determine the direction we ran towards but I had known that the more we progressed, the farther we deviated from the path Bashir was supposed to be awaiting my return. Once again, I had broken a promise and I could feel the minutes slip away from my fingers as the image of the hour glass in my head had at long last finished its course—Bashir would have to leave without me. We had entered a clear pathway, free of bushes, and even though I was

Chapter 45: the kahuna II

JANE... Peace in definition can be seen as tranquility in its utmost. I could hear birds singing and maybe the weather had been playing a harmonica in tune as well. Fairytales were a myth but I happened to find the verity of it in a place that resembled nothing like reality. Just as sudden as the feeling of freedom encompassed me, I saw his face, lethal and deadly like always. He was staring into my soul and similar to every other time it happened, there was no place to hide from his hunting eyes —I would never be free from Shugaba's bondage. The surrealism shut out and I remembered the darkness but slowly, as my lids parted, light came through to dispel the fearsome imaginings. I bolted upright, swallowing the jolt of pain that came in line with my movements —now sitting on the partial comfort of a flattened layer of foam. Everything was unfamiliar seeing as the last thing I recalled was the chaos and afterwards, those warm brown eyes that awarded me gentle looks but then again,

Chapter 46: the kahuna III

Aisha had refused but knowing me, I could never take no for an answer. She had said that the Agent was working behind at some distances away from our own shelter, stretching a little further into the bushes, and far from where the settlers rushed to scavenge the last drops of rain water in their cistern. Her chadaree had been the perfect disguise. The garment covered my whole body from the top of my head to the ground, leaving only a mesh screen to allow for proper vision. Once outside, I choked on the dust first and the air had been too dry that breathing it in had become a pain inducing task. My steps were uncertain at the initial stage but after some moments, I had blended perfectly into the crowds, seeing as my relaxed countenance had come across as anything but chary. The structures of buildings present were either collapsed to the last decimal or were in the form of bits and pieces which had remained from what looked like an obvious past explosion. Only an infinite trail of t

Chapter 47: the roller

Lade... Hours had gone by since she had walked out without a reply to the equivocal opinion I shared. For some reason I had wanted an answer, something that would clear away this unappreciated doubt that hovered about somewhere in my head.

Chapter 49: the roller III

Jane...    I couldn't stop myself from worrying just like I couldn't stop myself from fiddling with the braids that a certain someone had thoughtfully done for me. It had only been two days since I woke up and it looked as though the Agent was hard to come by each passing minute.

Chapter 50: the roller IV

  I probably shouldn't have been wandering outside the tent in the dead of night but maybe I had just needed to clear my head. The dilapidated bungalow that was used as an infirmary by the locals here controlled
