The Guardians - Season 1 - Episode 109

☆☆******

The soldiers were trying to avoid
the smoke when one of them
suddenly realized that the smoke
was from a canister which was
thrown at them from the
staircase and he opened fire in
that direction.

When the soldier shot, all the
Presidential guards agents with
Izu and IBK had already passed
and were making their way
down but Michael and Segun
were still trying to make sure
they passed through. Due to the
smoke in the soldier’s face, he
could not aim well and he just
took the shot in the direction of
the staircase and hoped that he
hit something or someone.

Michael heard the shots come
from the within the smoke and
he quickly ducked and drew
pointed his own rifle towards
them and opened fire. Segun
who had made his way tothe
other stairway could not go and
leave Michael back so he ducked
and also opened fire into the
smoke. Their bullets did not
reallyhave any prior aim but in
the midst of the confusion, the
soldier did not bother to hide
and some of them got stuck by
the bullets.

They screamed as the smoke
began to clear out; Segun saw
that some of the soldiers had
taken cover behind a door while
some were struggling on the fool
due to bullet wounds. He
signaled for Michael to come and
he opened fire in the direction of
the soldiers again. The soldiers
ducked giving Michael
justenough time to get to the
other stairway and they both
headed down but suddenly
stopped when they head another
round of gunshots just around
the corner where the IBK, Izu
and the remaining guards had
passed.

The soldiers at the first floor
were told to be ready as there
might be trouble coming from
the gates as their commanders
had expected that the assault
would come from outside the
house but they did not know
about the tunnels and that there
might be an attack on them from
within so they focused their
attentions on the gate.
The left just a handful of men to
man the ground floor in case one
of the workers in the house
decide to be unruly and needed
to be whipped into shape. The
morning had gone well with
them and they did not really
know why they were there or
how long they were going to
occupy the house; all they knew
was that they were told to make
sure no one gets through and
interrupt things.

They heard the gunshots
upstairs and they get restless as
some of them were sent up the
stairs to go check what was
happening but they were met on
the way by the first of the guards
and they were gunned down
before they could fall back. The
guards ran through their bodies
and directly to the ground floor
where they engaged the soldier
in a gunfight along with IBK and
Izu. Michael and Segun ran down
the stair and saw that some of
their men were already hit while
some were injured and still more
soldiers poured in from the gates
as they were told ofthe fight
going on.

Segun saw the impending
danger in staying there to fight
them and immediately he got
tothe end of the stairs he said;
“We can’t keep this up or else we
will be trapped here for a long
time. It won’t be long before
those boys upstairs start pouring
down and heading towards us
so we will have to move towards
the control room as fast as
possible.

Michael threw his head around
the corner and he could count
about ten soldier positioned with
their guns drawn waiting
forsomeone to emerge from the
stairway.

“What do we do now?” Segun
said to Michael“We can’t stay
here as we will be sitting ducks
and time is running against us

Lai flew around the house and
circled the helicopters waiting
for a response from thembut
they did not give him a response
as the seconds kept ticking away.

They made their tuned towards
them and approached them
ready to fire when he heard a
response from one of the pilots;
“Hawk 004” we want to make
contact with our superiors and
we will get back to you in a short
while”

Lai felt insulted, he could not
believe they would actually try to
buy time, he had expected that
they either complied with him or
they opened fire but this was
something new and he could not
allow them dictate how it will go
to him
