“Not so loud Michael said. There
might be guards behind that
door and we don’t want them
coming in to find us here yet. The
reason the Presidential Villa is
always taken in the advent of a
coup is that you can
communicated with every
military base from here which
will be disastrous and we are to
take out the communications
here out completely. The laptop I
sent Shade with would have
been important to them but we
need to hit the communications
room.”

“How do we get there?”
The leader of the Palace guards
Lieutenant Segun said;
“It is downstairs, on the far left
side of the building itself; if we
take that out, communications
from here out will be limited to
handheld devices which makes it
less official”
Izu whispered;

“You know we are going after
communications and you had to
send Shade back? She is better at
these things”

“Our orders are to blow them up
not put them off: putting them
off is going to take forever to do
so we strap a couple of
explosives to the servers and run
in the opposite direction” Segun
said
Michael said

“The more we stand here and
discuss our strategy, the more
we run the risk of losing our
element of surprise He walked
towards Segun and said: “What
are we looking at outside there?”

“Really long and wide corridors
and if we will move, we will have
to make most of our kills silently
and try hard not to be seen and
oh don’t hesitate to finish
anyone off as the more people
we leave alive, the more people
left to raise an alarm”

“Okay then, I think it’s time we
left this room and go ahead”
Michael said

One of the guards opened the
door a little and peeped into the
corridor. The door was large and
heavy but it also had a
mechanism to make it light. The
hinges of the door was perfectly
lubricated which ensured that it
was almost silent when it was
opened. He poked ahead out the
door for some seconds and he
closed it back immediately. He
looked back towards everyone
and said;

“There are five men outside in
the corridor. Each of them armed
and not joking around.”
Segun added;

“The corridor outside this door is
short but it is wide and they
might not be close enough for us
to use knives”

“Okay then, time for silenced
guns. Wait whatabout cameras;
are they going to be a problem?”
“They will and that’s why
immediately we step out of here,
we have to get to the
communications room fast, there
is no question about whether we
will be seen or not but we the
guards might not know soon
enough that they are in trouble if
there are no gunshots”

Michael said as they pulled out
handguns supplied before they
entered the tunnel: eachof them
having a silencer attached to it
and the waited at the door as the
guard opened the door silently
Michael and Segun were at the
door and Michael held his hand
up for them to wait until the go
first. He looked towards Segun
and nodded when the door was
completely opened and he slowly
stepped to the side allowing the
others look in front of him too.
The presidential office is at the
end of a corridor so everyone
looking in the direction of the
door would see it opened but it
was also wide which ensured
that each of the guards watching
the office had a different place to
stand. Out of the five standing in
the corridor, just one was
looking towards it as the rest
was confident that one little girl
could not over power the guards
watching her and no one
envisaged. The guard whose face
was turned towards the huge
door also happened to be the
one in front of the other guards
as he seemed to be narrating a
story to the others and
immediately the doors opened,
he stopped and was about to say
something to them when Michael
raise the gun in his hand and
pulled the trigger hitting him
twice in the chest and once in
the head.

The other guards turned
immediately, they were regular
soldiers who were not expecting
any attack so their first thought
was not to grab their guns and it
turned out to be their mistake.

Michael was pulling the trigger
when the guards turned and
Segun stepped to the side giving
the men still inside the office a
view of the corridor and the men
standing in front of them.
