The Guardians - Season 1 - Episode 106

☆☆
**sunday special*
Segun had seen silent kills in his
days but the one he just saw
Michael pull of had to be one of
the best because the soldiers
who were not far away from
Michael did not even notice that
their counterpart was dead, they
had their attention on the person
in front of themand considered
him more of a threat. He ran
towards them with a gun in both
hands and then slowed down
into a slow walk.

Michael released the body and it
hit the ground with a silent thud.
It was quiet but loud enough to
make the soldiers suspect and
they both turned their heads to
the sound to the sound behind
them and before their eyes could
register the sight of the man
standing behind them, Segun
opened fire on the both of them.
The Presidential guards like the
DMI always chose the best men
and their personnel were always
professional who rarely missed a
shot so at that distance, Segun
had no problem with putting
bullets deep inside their skulls.
The bullets at that range did not
find their heads strong enough
to hold them in and they flew out
from the other end and
embedded themselves in the wall
on the other side just missing
the window by a little distance.
“You are one mean dude”
Michael said

He simply nodded in
acknowledgment of Michael’s
compliments
“Where did you learn to shoot?”
“Nigerian Army, I was recruited
from there. And that was some
nice kill you did there”
The remained agents including
Izu snd IBK came out of the
offices they were in and Michael
looked at the man;

“Who are you and why were they
holding you?”

“I am Johnson Tanwa: a reporter
with Channels television”

“So what did they want with
you?”

“They did not want anything, I
just told them that their plans will
fail and someone would resist
them and they tried to kill me but
they said it was not necessary
that I be killed so were instructed
to hold me somewhere”

Segun looked at Michael, it was
obvious they could not take the
reporter with them but leaving
him to walk around could also
spell doom for him so they
Michael said;

“Go into one of those offices and
find somewhere to hide. Inside
the toilet, bathroom or
somewhere but whatever
happens, do not come out if you
value your life”

The man stood up and looked
around still confused as to which
of the office to get into and he
was left standing there. The
bodied were dragged into an
office and they all made their
way to the stairway. They
stoppedat the top and Segun
looked down. They had three
floors to go and there was a
possibility that there would be
soldiers guarding it but there
was also a chance that they have
been picked up by a camera so
they could not waste time.

Segun lead the way down the
stairs always looking in front of
him while both his guns athis
side but he was ready to shoot
them at first chance. They got
half way into the first floor and
the stairs took a turn towards
the right. He stepped to the first
one and saw no one there so he
continued down until he got to
the end of the stairs. He looked
to the left and the right and the
hallway was empty except for
some soldiers who were walking
in the opposite direction.

Looking back at theothers, he
signaled that they hurry up and
he turned to the stairs again.

They went down and got to the
next floor which had a office of
the Palace guards and the first
thing, Segun noticed was that
the corridor was filed with
soldiers. He had expected this to
happen but he did not think
there would have been so many
soldiers there. He pulled back and
went towards Michael;

“I think we have pushed our luck
this far: there are soldiers all
around us now and we might
not be able to slip away”
“How many are they?”
“Enough to ensure that this is
suicidal”

“But we can still surprise them
right?”

“Sure I don’t think they are
aware of our presence yet. Sure
the cameras would have picked
us up but I doubt these guys
have been told else they would
have made a mad dash for us”

Michael took a deep breath and
said;

“I guess it’s time to bring out the
big guns and hope a sizable
number of us survive to make it
to the servers”
