Alice had tried figuring out a way to escape ever since they trapped her inside the room. She knew they would be back soon, or at least she hoped they would come back. She looked up at the old clock on the wall, it was riddled with cobwebs, but she could still make out the time, it was eight in the evening. For the past nine hours she hadn't seen anyone, it was almost as if no one was coming. She had tried listening for foot steps or even faint voices, but nothing. The room was dirty indeed. But there were still a few old things she could put to good use, like the cutlass she had found by the broken down cupboard for instance, or pieces from a shattered mirror, she wrapped a large piece of dirty cloth at the end of the broken mirror. That way she could hold it without cutting herself. She was ready, and whoever opened the door first, would suffer in her world of pain. Just when she thought about her plans, she heard them, footsteps, from the w
" Maybe if you hadn't been the imbeciles that you were, Sunday would already be dead by now !! " Fasting barked into the cell phone he held in his hands. " We can still catch him " the man on the other end of the line answered. " And how do you plan to do just that ?" Fasting asked again, in a less aggravated tone. " We know he's coming for you " the man answered again. " And how do you know this ? does he have my location ? " Fasting asked. " Yes, they have agent Thomas's cell phone, " the man who happened to be on the other end of the line spoke. It was Shola, and Fasting could already tell. Fasting took a deep breath, and from the way he sighed, Shola could detect his disappointment. " You had one job to do, kill Sunday and bring me that flash. Yet for some reason I haven't seen Sunday !, I haven't seen any goddamn flash !! nothing !! I mean what good is having secret agents working for you when they can't even do their freaking job proper
" We have to find a way out of here, " Alice whispered determined to escape. " They'll catch you before you'll be able to escape " David warned, straining to sit up. "We don't have a choice, they'll kill both of us if we stay here " Alice assured. " You know you're much braver than you look " David said smiling. " Here, let me help you " Alice offered, she put his hand over her shoulder and put hers around his waist, then she helped him up. David staggered for a while, groaned and hissed from the pain all over his body, but Alice was right, they would surely die if they stayed here any longer. The goons were already inside the room, looking for them, at first they douted she would be here, but when they realized even David had escaped, they were sure she had been in the room, and would most likely still be here. The goons went to separate sides of the room, they covered more sides that way. They were sure Alice had helped David escape, on his own he
Alice hid behind a curtain and watched the goons as they ran in the opposite direction, she waited until the sounds of footsteps were far off before she crept out from her hiding place. She thought they had all gone when suddenly she felt something against the back of her head. " Turn around, slowly" she heard the voice say. She obeyed and turned, but was anything but slow, she grabbed the gun from the man, kicked him where the sun don't shine before he had an opportunity to shoot, then she aimed the gun at him. The next sound she heard took her by surprise, she heard someone clapping, and when she turned, she found Fasting standing there. He stood in front of a number of goons and instinctively she aimed the gun at him, but the goons aimed their guns at her as well. " You are something else Alice, I underestimated you, " Fasting said. "How is the pain in between your legs ? " Alice asked confidently, and then Fasting's lo
Alice sobbed, her head shook widely in disbelief .Fasting hadn't just done what she thought he had ? he couldn't have killed her entire family, it wasn't possible. She tried to believe anything but the obvious, they had all heard the gunshot sound from the phone, but Alice still doubted it. " Such a pity " Fasting said. Alice lifted her head and glared at him. Despite what he had done he still looked as indifferent as ever. " You ! you monster !!" Alice screamed and launched at Fasting, " she didn't care about his goons that had their guns pointed at her, she wanted to make him pay for what he had done. Of course his goons grabbed her before she got close to Fasting. " I'll kill you you monster !!, I'll kill you !!, Alice screamed, kicking and trying to pull free from their grip, " you monster !!, let me go !! she screamed at the goons holding her, but her screams didn't change anything. " It is a shame though, I had really started to like your mother " fastin
Sunday drove like a mad man down the dark streets, going on such speed it looked as if the car was flying. But the mercedes was up to the task and it didn't faulter, not once. " Right turn " Alice said, and immediately Sunday spun the wheel, leading the car down the street on their left. Alice had her eyes fixed on the Ipad in her hands, they had transferred the information they needed to find Fasting from Thomas' s phone, and dropped his phone along the way. Even If Shola or anyone else in his treacherous gang were to trace it, they wouldn't be able to stop them, besides Sunday already had what he needed. Sunday tried to stay calm even though his hands were slippery from sweat and his head ached with impatience. He couldn't wait to get his hands on Fasting, all the things he would do to him. First, he would break enough bones in his body to cause him agonizing pa
" Leave him alone ! stay away from him !! " Alice screamed with tears rushing down her cheeks, she couldn't stand to see the torture, non of them could, but they couldn't help him even if they tried. Fasting's goons had tied them up, ( Sunday, Reuben and Susan) he had forced Alice to put a gun to Sunday. She had to choose between shooting him, or having Fasting shot him, Susan, Reuben, as well as her entire family. The manic didn't leave her with much of a choice, she knew if Fasting had to shoot Sunday himself he would definitely kill him, but at least with her he stood a chance. " Shoot him " Fasting had said simply, as if he was asking for something so little, immediately one of the goons handed Alice a gun, and another held a gun to her head, the others had both Susan and Reuben at gun point, they would fire if she didn't. "
No one else knew about agent Shola and agent Thomas's betrayal, there hadn't been any witnesses when Thomas had confessed earlier, so there wasn't any reason to worry on their part. However, a good number of agents were already aware of Sunday having been accused of betraying the agency, and some who were present when he fought other agents at the hospital didn't any explanation concerning his betrayal. They were sure now that Sunday was a traitor, he had given them enough reason not to doubt that, and with the agents already believing the lie, it didn't take much convincing for Thomas to get them to go after Sunday, and bring him back into custody. Thomas had given the instruction, and while the other agents went in search of Sunday, him and Shola stayed back at the hospital hatching another plan to get out of the mess they were al
