EPISODE 7
He took the names to Nicho, “These are my targets”
“I hope they have treasures we can convert to ours”
“We are not stealing from them I just want to kill them, that’s all.
And I will be doing the killing”
They stared at one another “If that is what you want, no problem” They waited in the club till the middle of the night before heading to the house of the first person on their list.
They killed the two guards securing her gate. They met the woman watching a movie. She knelt immediately, “please don’t kill me anything you want I will give it to you” she begged for her life.
Silas moved closer to her, pointing his gun at her “Start confessing your sins madam, how many people have you killed”
“I did not kill anybody” He shot her legs
“I have killed many” she cried out groaning in pain. “My leg!” She exclaimed.
“Why are lying before, now the people you killed sent us to you” He shot her on her forehead, blood gushed out, she died instantly.
They ran hastily to their car and drove off.
Pamela was pacing around the room waiting angrily for Silas.
He walked in quietly.
“Where are you coming from by this time”
“I thought I have my freedom” He frowned
“Don’t let me regret sparing your life” She glared.
“What do you mean by that”
“Nothing is just a slip of tongue, I’m sorry” She stammered.
Nelson laughed, “You will surely regret it” He muttered silently.
The following morning, he met 54 missed calls on his phone from Joyce, “Has she seen Favour?” He ran downstairs to call her.
“Hello, have you seen Favour?”
“No Sir”
“So why are you calling me”
“I have something important to share with you sir”
“What is more important than Favour”, he ended the call with anger.
Pamela rushed down the stairs. “What happened,” Silas asked.
“One of my meeting members is dead” she cried, took her car key, and left hurriedly.
Silas laughed, “Expect more of this, till it finally reaches your turn.”
The evening of that day, they sat at a bar drinking preparing for the killing of another. His phone rang. “What is wrong with this Joyce of a girl?” He picked reluctantly.
“Hello sir”
“I’m listening”
“If you can’t come and see me, tell me where you are let me come” He described the bar, Joyce showed up some minutes after.
“What happened to you, why is your face swollen, and why are you wearing black”
“I lost somebody so dear to me”
“Oh sorry”
She brought out a camera and played a video “That’s the video of how you attacked and killed my aunty last night” Silas expressed shock seeing the video
“How did you get this, I don’t know she’s your aunty”
“I removed the camera because I know that’s the first thing the police will go for”
“Why will you that,” Joyce asked tearfully
“Joyce I’m sorry, please” He became emotional.
“The police will arrest you and your guys in the next 24 hours, this camera is the only evidence and I’m also a living witness, you see the camera also showed my face where I was hiding” She took a deep breath “Witnessing against you is like witnessing against Favour, and I can’t do that to her”.
“Thank you, Joyce, please cover up for me, just tell me anything, I will do It” He panicked.
“Are you sure you will do it?” She asked frankly
