Dedicated to Aipete... Happy Birthday

Benny sauntered into the kitchen after waiting patiently for over thirty minutes Tarasha left. He wondered what Aisha was cooking that was taking so long to be ready. He was amazed when he entered the kitchen and found her doing nothing, he looked over to the cookers to see if anything was being prepared but there was nothing on the cookers and electric stove.

He wanted to slam on Aisha but was repelled by the worried look on her face. He needed not to ask what was wrong with her, Cole had been in the same sober mood since Tarasha left. He had worries too but his desire for food was stronger that moment. He pitied Aisha more; she was definitely going to get killed by the men outside, Tarasha had warned that she shouldn't be assisted in any way.

'I'll prepare something now, it should be done in the next twenty minutes' Aisha finally said something to calm his nerves. She walked towards the refrigerator and brought out some containers of frozen food.

'How are you going to do it?' He asked with a tone of concern.

She shrugged, 'I'll call Don and plead with him to withdraw his boys'

'But the boss wants you to drop them' Benny said. He wondered in his heart why she hadn't break up the relationship with Don. He had known since the day Don had released her; one of his favorite sex machines to work with Tarasha, Don had other plans.

'How can I drop those guys?' She looked Benny in the face in a confused manner. 'They are trained guys, I'm just an ordinary cook who knows how to use guns'

'You're not an ordinary cook, we've received a lot of tutoring in few days that we worked with Tarasha' Benny tried to encourage, 'if you could handle the pilot's sister very well, I think you can do this also'

'Maybe she doesn't have to worry about it anymore' Cole's voice cut in, he walked into the kitchen to meet their stares. 'The guys left already'

'Huh?'

'Yea' Cole continued, 'I'm suspecting that they followed after the Boss'

'Does the Boss know about that?' Benny looked alarmed.

'I believe she does' Cole replied indifferently, 'I tried to call her but she didn't answer the call'

'That might be dangerous, what if she doesn't know' Benny continued frightfully.

'I'm sure she knows and she won't let them go scot free' Cole said with a note of confidence. 'Aisha is lucky'

++++++++

After driving for almost an hour without being able to get rid of her trailers, Tarasha began to think of an alternative way. She could have finished them off if not for the broad daylight. The option left was to escape their trail or make them lose sight of her.

She knew that they were aware that she had also seen them, so she drove on carefully, always trying to take note if any other person or group had joined them.

At last she got the chance required, they got to a busy roundabout and the traffic light ordered for them to halt but Tarasha defiled the order. She crazily sped off, swerving to escape being hit by a coming trailer. The blue car driver followed after foolishly but couldn't avoid colliding with the trailer and causing a catastrophe.

The trailer's driver who had already gotten confused by the way Tarasha  drive recklessly tried to bring it to a quick halt to avoid an accident but the blue car that followed the mini van tan impatiently under the trailer. The car and its occupants were crushed under the big vehicle.

+++

Tarasha got to her residence five hours later. It took her so long because she couldn't drive back straight; she was sure that the police were tracing her van with the security cameras, so she had to go and pass through an undeveloped community where the cameras were not functioning and change the van.

Even the new van could not be traced to her residence because all cameras several kilometres to her place had been deactivated by her.

Her gate opened automatically when the van got in front. A thought struck her mind as she parked the van, she needed another place for Cole, Benny and Aisha to stay.

Maybe it wasn't Aisha's fault after all, she thought. She recalled that she didn't kill the first two guys that were brought by Chief Gab to work with her. They obviously still knew the place, so the place was never hidden before.

Trailing her also proved the fact that the spies came for her and were not really interested in what was happening in the house.

'They have to move from there' she said to herself as she got out of the car

30/12/2015

**11am


Several police Hyundai sonata vehicles drove out of the Muritala Mohammed airport escorting the newly arrived Robin Kahn and his two team members. Robin Khan sat in the black jeep with the Inspector General while his two men were seated with the commissioner of police in the other car following behind the jeep.

Inspector James and his team were also in one of the Hyundai Sonatas. Inspector James had shook hands with the man, welcoming him to Nigeria. The man looked strict and disciplined to James, he  hoped in his mind that the man would be an easy  person to work with.

Benny was also at airport, he came to book a flight. Of course, he was traveling to no where; he had only come to checkout his target but he was only able to catch a glimpse of the man. That was enough though, the view he got sent shivers down his spine. The man was a tall man of about 6ft, heavily built and muscular.

Benny quietly made his way to return to the office, thinking of two options in his heart; either to run away from Lagos to a far village where Tarasha and no one else would be able to locate him or come up with a game plan that help him fulfill his task. If he wanted to go by the latter, then he had to come up with something very intelligent.

He thought of Aisha's luck as he drove in the old model Mercedes Benz. Tarasha had helped her settle the problem she caused with her hands and said she no longer had a task to worry about except if another set of spies return.

His phone rang out loud at he drove back to the house, he checked the screen and found out that it was his boss calling. He quickly looked for a space and parked to call her back.

'Boss' he said as his call was answered.

'Where are you Benny?'Tarasha's voice came through.

'Ikeja'

''Okay, drive straight to Relix Guesthouse , Plot 343 Adefile Street Lagos' she said in a rush.

'Eh?' He couldn't make out what she said.

'Relix guesthouse, Plot 343 Adefile street, Lekki' Cole's voice sounded, correcting Tarasha's wrong pronunciation of the Nigerian words. 'Call my number when you're almost there'

'Okay' the call ended. Benny started the car engine at once and drove off.

+++++++++++++++++

**12pm**

Robin Kahn was a man who wasted no time, he settled immediately into the office provided for him in the Police headquarters and already began to ask for reports on the cases. His team members were also given different offices at his left and right sides, they could see and easily get in touch with each other very well as only transparent glass walls demarcated their office rooms.

James secretly gave the man a searching look as his report was been scrutinized. He wasn't expecting that the progress report would be called for so soon as the IG had told him earlier that nothing much would be done that week since what was left was a day to the end of the year.

Robin had declined the IG's offer to take him to a place of relaxation for the day, so that he could be well rested before the new year when the investigations would start properly.

'The new year celebration may hinder our work, let's begin properly immediately every celebration is over' the IG had hinted.

Robin was a focused man and would have none of that, he refused the advice and decided to start work immediately. The IG did not push further, not wanting to be seen as a lazy bone, he agreed that the work should begin immediately.

'Where's the Doctor that met with the Samantha ?' Robin raised his hardened face as he looked at James for answers.

'He's in his residence under close watch by the EFCC, he has a case with them' James answered.

'The EFCC, that is Economic Financial...'

'Economic financial crimes commission' James completed it for him.

'Okay' the man said as he returned his focus back to the computer. There was silence for another one minute. 'Where's the video recording device you found in the pharmacy?'

'It's with the computer team' James replied, he wondered if the Man would ever stop asking questions which answers have been provided already in the report.

'I need see it now' He demanded

'I can get it now' James replied him, getting up from his seat.

'Wait!' Robin stopped him, raising his hand. He punched some buttons on his wristwatch and spoke into it, staring through the transparent goes wall at his junior in the office by his left.

James could not make out what the man said but he looked towards the direction the man was looking and saw the junior agent get up from his seat, looking at their direction as he walked out of the office.

The junior agent, a black american, Greg by name joined them in the office in few seconds. He greeted James with a nod and focused his gaze at his boss, waiting for order.

'Follow this inspector' the order came, 'get r bug from him and find out where it directs to'


++++++++++++++

'Over here' Cole waved his hand at Benny who was approaching in the Benz. He stood at the front of a black gate of a big duplex. Cole entered the compound and opened the gate for Benny to drive in.

Benny came out of the car immediately after parking and approached Cole, he had lot of questions in his heart.

'We're staying here for a while' Cole said before Benny could speak.

'What happened to...'

'Don't worry man, it's not time for questions' Cole cut in, tapping Benny on the shoulder. 'We have lot of work to do together now'

'Like?' Benny followed slowly behind Cole into the duplex.

'I spotted you at the airport today' Cole said.

'How?'

'I was monitoring the officer in charge of the health minister's case'

'How does that concern the airport?'

'The same officer is going to work with Robin' Cole answered, he paused and turned to face Benny. 'Our targets are working together, we can also work together to fight them'

Benny stared at Cole for a little while, considering his suggestion. He used an handkerchief to clean his face. Cole was still waiting for his response.

'What's the plan?' Benny asked.


++++++++++++

Jubril Lawal, well known man in the country for his great fight against terrorism and crime during 2016 - 2020 when he served as the inspector general of the nation under the government of Retired General Mubarak Baruwa was njow a retired man enjoying his rest in the country's capital, Abuja.

He did lots of charity works in the country which made him earn the respect of everyone in the country and even country leaders in and outside of Africa. His fight against corruption during his tenure also helped in giving him a good image, he was on the good book of everyone in the country except for Chief Gab.

'How long will it take you to take him down for me?' Chief Gab asked Tarasha who was having a live video chat with him.

'I don't know who the man is yet, I can't say for now' Tarasha replied him, she was print on a black mask to hide her face from the Chief.

'Well, I hope to meet you in person before you commence this job' Chief Gab requested.

'Why do you want to meet me?' Tarasha inquired.

'Is there anything wrong with meeting you?' The man asked with a frustrated tone. 'How can I not know who is working for me, are you planning to kill me one day?'

Tarasha have a hysterical laugh, 'so you're scared of death?' She asked mockingly. He remained quiet. 'I don't just kill people Chief, I kill people only when I'm sent or its necessary that I do'

'Then let's meet, or are you scared?'

Tarasha laughed out again, 'you're the one that should be scared Chief, seeing my face would only expose you to more danger'

'What danger?'

'Okay Chief, time up!' Tarasha said, reaching for the mouse with her hand. 'I don't do chit chatting'

'I...' The video chat was ended before the Chief could say another word. She removed the mask from her face and placed in on the table.

'Jubril Lawal' she typed into her search engine.

*10am*

'Happy new year!' The president said on top of voice as he ended his new year speech on national TV. Benny switched off the TV at once.

'Why?' Cole asked him, referring to his sharp flinging away of remote control.

'Why not?' Benny said as he got up from his seat. He walked to Cole who was laying down on the sofa and stretched his hand for a handshake.

Cole sat up and took the surprising handshake, looking to Benny for explanation.

'Happy new year' Benny finally said, 'we've been to busy monitoring and plotting how to drop Robin and James that we've forgotten to congratulate ourselves on the new year'

Cole laughed out loud, 'happy new year man' he stood up and engaged Benny in a brief hug.'You know Robin is working tirelessly too' he said as he sat back smiling, it felt good to get emotional once in a while.

'Yea, I know but I think we have the advantage' Benny sat close to him. 'He thinks that his presence in Nigeria is only known to the police force'

'That's true' Cole commented. He put up a serious face as something went through his mind. 'But how did boss get the information? Am not aware we have any informant in the police force'

'Hmm' Benny hummed almost silently.

'Happy new year guys' Aisha announced loudly, interrupting their discourse as she walked in with a tray of wine and glass cups.

She wore a sleeveless black top and a white mini skirt. She dropped the tray on a short stool in front of Benny, sorting out the cups and pouring the drink into them.

Benny felt blood rush through his body faster as he watched Aisha's mini skirt lift up at the back, revealing her pant view. This was the only year he hadn't celebrated the new year with a girl on his bed, so he felt like grabbing her from the back to have a quick one. His eyes met Cole's who gave a short laughter, he quickly took his gaze away.

'Is someone planning to get us high very early in this new year?' Cole joked as Aisha turned back handing the glasses to them.

'This won't get you high, I'm not aware that one cup of alcohol gets men drunk' she replied and dropped into the sofa they sat on, sitting in their middle.

'Damn!' Benny cursed under his breath as a bulge formed in his trousers on seeing Aisha's exposed laps. He quickly repositioned himself to avoid embarrassment, Cole who knew his plight gave out a slight smile. Benny wondered why Aisha was having an effect on him, he had seen her expose her body more than she did now without feeling a thing, maybe it was because of his recent longtime suppression of his urge for sex.

Something beeped loudly interrupting the jolly mood of the three, Cole knew at once where the sound came from. He dropped his glass and headed towards the new computer room, Benny and Aisha followed him with their glasses still in their hands.

The new computer room was a big one but almost empty as it was only set up temporarily, all two computers were in it. Cole wished that they could continue to use that house as their office but the boss has said that it was only for a short while.

'What's that?' Benny impatiently asked Cole who was in control of the computer.

'Someone is trying to trap us' Cole smiled as he said.

'What do you mean?'

'They're trying to locate us' Cole specified. He turned and faced Benny, 'we need to go out today and find somewhere we can receive our visitors.'

+++++++++++

'The command has been sent' Greg announced.

'Are you sure they would accept it?' Robin who was sitting beside him asked.

James stood up from the chair he was seated and moved closer to the computer. He took care as he walked not to collide with anything on the way. The room was poorly lit; the bulbs were switched off and only the reflection from the computer desktops screens provided the faint lightning.

'The command I sent would look harmless to them, I used the same proxy as they used so they would not suspect anything' Greg explained. 'They'll only think that their system is malfunctioning'

'How soon are we expecting their reply?' Tony, the third man on Robin's team asked. He was the tallest in the team, he had a baby face which made people take him for granted not knowing that he was a specialist in nabbing killers.

'It has delivered already, I believe they would reply whenever they get the message' Greg answered.

James had doubts in his mind as he thought about their new discoveries. It wasn't that they didn't have a good computer team in the Nigerian police, in fact their team had been ranked among the top five in the world. So he wondered how Greg could have hopes of locating where the bug directed signals to in just two days, something that the Nigerian police had worked on for weeks. He secretly prayed and hoped that it was not a trap set by the assassins.

Robin Kahn on his own was confident, his team had never failed in handing assassination cases, he trusted Greg to do the right thing. He also couldn't but praise the Nigerian team secretly in his heart, the progress his team had made so far was based on the work the Nigerian officers led by James had started. The US officers had not even made much progress like the Nigerians had done in the investigation. The only thing he believed Nigeria needed was a better Information technology and networking team.

'It's time to prepare our guys, we would need to attack very soon' Robin said getting up from his seat. He turned to James, 'prepare ten of your besst men' Robin said, stressing the word 'best' to lay emphasis.

+++++++

Tarasha loved this game, it was her favorite. She was going to see some policemen killed very soon by Cole and Benny. She loved the way guys were handling the situation.

Cole had called her earlier on to report their progress, how that they were planning to lure the police team by redirecting them to somewhere else where an attack would be launched on them.

She also been busy searching for information about the new target too. She discovered that the man being a former IG had a lot of officers guarding him. They had two options; either to deceive the man and bring him out of his protection or go through his heavy security and kill him. Anyway it was, what she knew was that she and her team would be moving to Abuja once the Robin's matter is taken care of. Now she had someone to pay a surprise visit to.

She looked into the mirror to see if her makeup was properly done, she released the band holding her plaited hair together and allowed it fall freely and cover her face. She stood up from the bed to get a full view of herself; she was dressed in a tomboy collared shirt and Jean trousers, she added a black face cap to match with her black boots. She paused for a while after which she took out a small mask which only covered her mouth and jaw region and also added a dark eyeglasses.

She didn't forget to take 'her baby' - the Walther PPK - before driving out of the house five minutes later. She headed for Gravl avenue.

'Tell your guards to open the gate once they spot a black Range Rover coming, I don't like waiting outside' she said into the phone.

Chief Gab got up from his seat at once, he didn't know what to expect, she didn't even allow him talk before she ended the call. He waved off his bodyguard who was moving close to him thinking he needed something.

He picked his smaller phone from the centre table and proceeded out of the living room to speak with the security men outside.

He returned five minutes later after giving them orders and headed to the computer room. Edet was surprised on seeing the man walk into the room.

'Good morning sir' Edet stood up to greet.

'Good morning Edet' Chief Gab replied, taking his seat beside the young man's chair. 'Let's see the entrance, I'm expecting a visitor'

Edet quickly responded to the instruction and the computer displayed the happenings outside. Nothing was going on except for the usual passage of vehicles in the estate.

It was after twelve minutes that Chief Gab spotted a black range Rover driving from the left towards the gate.

'Tell them to open the gate' he said to Edet who picked up a landline and quickly dialed the men at the gate.

The car was driven in in few seconds. The driver, a lady whose face was not visible due to her mode of dressing came out of the car, she had a bag strapped to her back. She was led into the house by two men as Chief had ordered them earlier.

They led her to the large sitting room and took their leave. Chief watched her as she stood in the middle of the living room and brought out a tablet device from her bag, she begin to put in some commands. Chief decided it was time to meet her, he cleared his throat and adjusted his Agbada before walking out of the computer room with his personal guard.

Tarasha already brought out a gun by the time he entered the living room with his guard. His guard who was proactive brought out his own gun and pointed at Tarasha. Her facial expression was not clearly seen but the Chief could hear a chuckle, he motioned his bodyguard to drop the gun.

Tarasha released four quick shots to the four edges of the rectangular room, destroying the planted cameras. She returned the gun into her pocket and faced the Chief.

'Good morning Chief' she greeted in a cheerful voice, 'Happy new year'

'Good morning Tarasha, same to you' he answered, both of them still standing. He signaled to the bodyguard to leave the place and the guy quickly obliged. 'Please have your seat' he motioned Tarasha to one of the thick leather sofas. She removed and dark glasses on her face as she sat down but still left the mask which covered the lower part of her face and the face cap which covered her forehead.

Nevertheless, Chief Gab could still see her eyes, she wasn't what he was expecting, she looked too young to be a professional assassin. He could place her between the ages of twenty to twenty five, she was in the same age range with his first daughter. He felt a pinch of guilt as he sat on the sofa facing her. He needed not to ask her what led her to becoming an assassin, he knew how it happened.

'What can I offer you?' He asked.

'The truth' she answered sharply.

'What?'

'The truth' she repeated.

'I mean something to drink or eat' he said with a smile.

'I want you to tell me the truth only' she reiterated.

'Well...' He became speechless, he wondered what kind of conversation she came for.

'Why are you killing all these people?'

He was taken aback by the question and he stammered, trying to find his voice. He thought Vladislav had told him that she killed without asking questions, she was bred to be like that.

'I mean you don't tell me what you have against these people you send me to' She added, 'most of them are loved by the people of your country'

'I don't think I am obliged to answer you' he answered, getting up from his seat.

That was true, he wasn't mandated to answer her. She herself was to ask questions, she came to Nigeria to kill and wasn't supposed to have pity for anyone that she was sent to or anyone that tried to stop her.

She thought she had lost all emotion until recently when she killed the Rivers State Governor. She remembered the look on his face, it was the look on the face of her first loved one that she killed. Her fifth assignment during her training, when she was just fourteen years old.

***FLASHBACK ***

- April 9, 2020 -

The innocent looking fourteen year old girl stood only clothed with  a black bra and very short black skirt in the extremely cold weather. That's how they were being brought up; to be able withstand any kind of weather, sometimes they were fully clothed in very hot weather. Her body shook as a mean looking man placed something into her hands.

She looked around her and found gazes of young girls of the same age as hers, some a little bit older. They were up to four hundred in number, young but had all lost their virginities to men who were old enough to be their fathers. All dressed in the same way, most were shivering in the cold while the others who were adapting quickly to the treatment stood still as they watched.

They all looked pale waiting for their colleague to go through her test, some of them had already gone and passed through the test while a lot were still waiting in line but one thing was sure they could not escape it.

She stared at the dagger for a couple of seconds before making her way into the fighting cage. She could see her reflection on the shining metal, it was so sharp that it could cut through the body of any animal just by falling on it. That was the same dagger that she had been asked to use on a man who she had grown to love over the years.

Loving was a crime in the clan; that's what she had just been taught in her last lecture. The hardened Roy had spoken to the girls in her class that loving or having affection for someone was wrong. Affection and love were only for the weak minded people. He also informed them that the topic he taught that day had practicals. The day was Tarasha's practical day, she had to kill Stanley who had been like a father to her and other girls who stayed in their block.

Stanley Bob was a citizen of America, aged fifty eight. He was brought to the Nefary Clan ten years ago. He was kidnapped during one of his political campaigns when he vied for the post of the Senate President n his nation. Being known for good in the country, he was sure to win the election. His enemies had then contacted the Nefary clan to get rid of him. He was lucky not to have being killed but brought to their headquarters in Russia to work as one of the cooks for the assassins trainee and trainers.
He didn't know where in the world he was but he still nurtured the hope of getting out some day and returning to help his country but it seemed he has team out of luck already as the inevitable death stared at him in the face.

The cage was locked from outside immediately Tarasha got in. She looked at him from afar, he bent his neck and stared at her like the zombie that he had made, gnashing his teeth as saliva dripped down his lips. The man had already been injected with substances that made him lost his will; all he could see Tarasha whom he used to love as was an animal to devour.

Tears flowed out in drops from Tarasha's eyes, she remembered how the man had cared for her at a time she was sick, ignoring the death punishment he would get if caught. He had taken her to his room secretly and made a mixture that healed her and saved her room the child hands of death.

The zombie approached her violently with a rod in his hands. He struck the rod against her but she dodged, swerving to the right as the rod landed on the floor. She moved farther away from him but he surged forward against her with the rod, she kept moving backwards until her back touched the wall of the cage. He struck the rod once again, this time she bent down and it missed her head. She escaped by passing below his arm and ran to the other side of the cage.

The monster was relentless in his quest to devour the girl, he picked up his rod and charged towards her again.

'Kill him Tarasha, what the hell is wrong with you?' She heard Vlasdismir shout. She looked backwards to look at the angry man, she looked at the faces of her colleagues too as if to receive permission to kill Stanley. She couldn't make out what they wanted from the look in their faces, they all stared at her like mourners.

The rod hit her face as she turned neck back to focus on her attacker, she fell down on the floor heavily, blood gushed out of her nose as the dagger fell off her hands. The zombie raised up the rod again to land it on her head the second time but she had quickly recovered. She opened her eyes just in time and rolled away quickly.

She touched her bleeding nose as she got up, her head was banging already. It was then she gave up and decided to end the man's life, he was going to kill her if she didn't kill him first.

The man charged towards her again, she bent and gave him a kick behind his knee to take him down. The man only staggered as the kick from her tiny leg could not have much effect on him. He turned back and watched as she picked up her dagger.

He widened his eyes and let out a loud growl as he ran towards her again. She slid and passed beside his legs, he almost fell as he missed his hit, before he could turn back to her, she had pierced the dagger into his side.

'Don't just kill him, I want his neck' somebody shouted from outside the cage.

Blood rushed down the left side of the zombie's stomach as he fell on one knee, his rod fell off his hands. He turned back to attempt a last attack on Tarasha but she ran the dagger into his neck, his blood spilled on her face and into her mouth as she removed the dagger and the man fell down lifeless, his blood gushing out profusely.

Her eyes was full of pity and remorse as Stanley fell, his head sidewards with his tongue out. But it wasn't over yet, she still had to cut off his neck and take it out to the boss. She trembled as she knelt down to disjoin the head from the neck.

Tears had stopped dropping from her eyes by the time she was carrying the head out of the cage, she had lost every pity for the man already. She couldn't have pity anymore, she wasn't created to be with emotions.
