“I hope you all have completed the task?”
“Yes… Mr. President.” Replied the four of them.
“And remember, you’ll account for it.” He said again as he walked past them not sparing them a glance. They both stared at each other as he walked towards his ride.
“Yes Sir.” They all replied in unison.
“That’s good. Mr. Milian!” The President called and Young Mr. Milian followed him immediately. They both entered the ride and zoomed out of the premises immediately.
“Lawrence must be out of his mind. Does he expect us to account for such money.” Mr. Maxiliano stuttered.
“I’m really pissed off. He thinks because he’s the President, he can just order us anywhere.” Mr. Walter added.
Meanwhile Young Christabel came back to the office to pick up the package she brought for her little sister. She overhead the men discussing but shrugged it off. She made to walk away but one of them mentioned her Dad’s name which caused her to stop and eavesdrop on them.
“If he’s an hindrance to us.. Then we take him out of the way.” Mr Denver suggested.
“No.. We can’t possibly do that. We will just talk it with him. He’s our friend, he’ll understand.” Mr. Walter replied.
“Our friend indeed… If you guys are afraid..I’ll do the needful. I’ll poison him to death.” Mr. Denver said and the two men gasped.
The package fell off Young Christabel’s grip and she ran off almost immediately, taking her ride.
The three men ran to the direction and saw the car zooming into the street.
“It was the President daughter.. She must have heard us..” Mr. Walter panicked.
“We are good as dead.” Added Milian.
“Calm down. I got the situation under control.”
“What are you gonna do?”
“Just wait and watch the reason why I’m named Denver.”
“You’re not possibly gonna ki|| her.. Are you?”
“What do you expect? You want your secrete to leak out. You want her to announce to her father that we conspired against him. She’s going to be involved in an accident.. A fatal one that will lead her straight to heaven. Hahaha” He laugh out loud.
“Let’s go have a drink.” He said, embracing Walter tightly as they started walking.
“I’m coming. I’ve to drop something.” Walter replied and hurried off into a corner..
He had successfully cloned Denver’s phone and entered the recent message.
“Change of plan.. Don’t ki|| them. Just struck them with amnesia and make it looks like accident.”
After the message was sent, he deleted it immediately and messaged another number named Dave.
“The children are in danger. Take them faraway from here. ”
He adjusted his tie and ran off to meet the others.

Present Day**
“If there’s a reason why the both of you’re still breathing.. That’s him.” Dave said to her. Cinderella couldn’t believe her ears. She didn’t even got the time to ponder when Sniper and the rest walked in.
“Is everything ready?” Asked Mr. Dave and she nodded.
“The children has been confined in the safe room, Mrs. Ava is looking after them.” Mr. Walter announced and Mr. Dave nodded.
They’re just six in the room. Fully prepared for the ambush yet to come.
“What about the boys?” Asked Cinderella.
“They’ve been con…”
“We are here…” They crawled out of the bed. Jaxton and Cole cladded in a rough dress and holding a makeshift weapon.
“What are you doing here, Son? It’s too risky.” Asked Mr. Milian.
“No one asked Cinderella what she’s doing here.” Replied Cole.
“She’s trained for it..okay..this is a crossfire.”
“Seriously need.. You need more hands.” Replied Cole, showing off his muscle.
“Yeah seriously.. You need more hands.” Jaxton also boasted.
“And Cinderella.. She’s a girl afterall.” Jaxton turned to her but she was thinking of something different entirely..
“Don’t tell me you brought Theo here.. Cause I could feel him.” She said and crouched down, checking under the bed but none was there.
“Bring out the weapons.. We need all hands on deck.”
“And we also need someone that will put off the light.”
All of them glanced at each other. “I’ll do it..”
“No… We need you here.”.
“I’ll go..”
“Not you.”
“Cinderella.”
“Everybody silence.. An intruder is here.” She said and pulled out a knife from her combat trouser. She sneaked towards the bulglary, watching closely how the wind carried the curtain. She th-ru_sted her knife forward and Jaxton gasped.
Unfortunately, she missed whoever she was targeting. She th-ru_sted it again. The same thing. Then. She turned to the rest and shrugged her shoulder.
In a split of seconds, the curtain had enveloped her as she let out a gasp. Sniper dashed towards her immediately and brought down the curtain with just one strike and it fell on the floor revealing Theo and Cinderella in the most romantic posture ever. Everyone bursted into a hot laughter.. Even Cinderella couldn’t help but laugh as they claimed each other’s lip.
Sniper grinned and kicked him on the back of the leg.
“They’ll go put off the light.” She said, generating another round of laughter.

It was very dark in the night. One could hardly see.. The moon refused to come out today, as if aware of the havoc that’s gonna wreck down today. Three black jeeps screeched to a halt and almost immediately, men dressed in black all get down of it armed with a gun each.
One of them opened door and Mr. Denver came out with his daughter by his side.
The light suddenly put off and a smile crept on his face. “I think they know we are coming.. This is gonna be fun.” He said.
“Ambush..” His daughter gave command and the men all rushed into the building. The ones with sniper headed first, as they made contact with the door. A blast blew them off into pieces. Summer had to hold on to her father.
It was a makeshift bomb and the effect was not that much but four men are already in the floor. The rest entered immediately, claiming the first floor.
They all slipped immediately as they stepped on drawy substances. The truth is the occupant of Peace Orphanages are fully prepared. Mr. Denver won’t find his way this time.
His men struggled to pass the first floor and the one that managed to pass ended up falling into another trap.
Another jeep dropped and the leader of the men working for Mr. Denver come down. His face couldn’t be seen clearly but he’s connected to the past.
“Viper.. I want the head of those two.”
“Yes Boss.” Viper pulled out his sword and turned to his men. “Form a bridge for the others.” He shouted.
Meanwhile, everyone is in position. ” It’s time.. Get ready.. Be at alert.” Sniper warned not removing her gaze from the sniper.
