TARASHA
EPISODE 36A
Knock! Knock! A male attendant with a cap
covering his face knocked on the door of room
108. A man opened the door slightly, bringing
out only his head.
‘What?’ He barked angrily at the attendant for
disturbing him.
‘Sorry, I need to check your bathroom. We got
an alarm, it seems the plumbing system is
faulty’ the attendant replied.
‘Everything is okay here’ the man said and tried
to close the door. The attendant stopped the
door from closing with his legs.
‘I still need to check it to be sure’ the hotel
staff said to the furious man.
‘What the hell is wrong with you? I said nothing
is wro…’ Benny did not allow him continue, he
looked around the corridor to check if anyone
was coming as he pushed the man inside with
the door, he closed back the door with his feet.
The man who was only clad in his boxers fell
down inside the room. Benny brought out a gun
and pointed it at the man after closing the door.
He placed a finger on his lips to order the man
to keep shut after which he brought out an
handkerchief and covered the man’s nose with
it.
Benny proceeded straight to the window with
his bag strapped to his bag, he took off the bag
after confirming that the window gave him a
perfect view and offloaded his tools. He rolled
down the curtains and quickly set up the sniper
and the grenade launcher. He wasn’t sure of
the one that would be needed.
‘I’m set Cole, are they anywhere close?’ Benny
spoke into his Bluetooth device.
‘You’re just in time, they arrived a minute ago’
the reply came immediately.
Benny opened the curtains but couldn’t see
anyone inside the warehouse compound. He
couldn’t see outside the gate from the window
until he climbed the bed, he could see police
buses and some people’s heads outside the
gate.
He got down the bed and used the telescope
attached to his sniper to continue the viewing.
All he needed was for the officers to enter into
the warehouse compound or the building, they
had set up automatic guns in several points in
the building that would be triggered when a
bullet hit a point in the main control of the set
up. Benny only hoped that his main targets,
Robin Kahn and inspector James would lead the
entourage in so that they wouldn’t be able to
escape their deaths.
Well, one thing was sure; they would not
escape that scene without any injury and even
if they escaped their deaths there, they would
not escape death in the second stage of the
plan.
He reset his sniper and focused it on the red
spot of the automatic guns control point on the
roof of the warehouse.
Robin decided that it was time to go in after
several minutes of shouting in orders without
getting any response. They had launched in
several volleys of tear gases and still couldn’t
find anyone coming forth.
He organised the men with inspector Segun and
Tony by his side, twelve police officers set in to
enter the building at once. James who was
double minded had to agree hesitatingly with
Robin’s plan as he didn’t want to be labeled as
rebellious, he was lucky as he was ordered to
stay with Greg with the other officers outside
the compound.
‘1, 2, 3 go’ Robin shouted and the lineup officers
released several gunshots at the gate, bringing
it down. The twelve entered into the building
the compound at once, spreading out as they
had planned.
Tony led the way to the entrance of the
warehouse, he broke the lock of the wide metal
door with two bullets from his gun, inside of the
warehouse was very dark.
‘What can you see?’ Robin shouted, moving
closer to join Tony.
‘Nothing, its dark’ Tony replied, ‘I believe no one
is here, the tear gas would have sent them out’
‘We have to go in and check, where are the
torchli…’ A gunshot sound startled them. It
came from the left from they couldn’t figure
out where it was from or where it hit.
A sound like that of a whirlwind dominated the
surrounding, the police officers began to shout
and tried to scamper for safety as metallic guns
implanted in walls began to spring out.
A rain of bullets filled the compound and several police officers dropped immediately.
Others who had been hit at one place or another dragged themselves behind walls and sections where the automatic guns couldn't spread their reach to.
Benny laughed loudly as he watched the police men round around helplessly in confusion.
It looked like Inspector Robin had also been hit, he was seen holding his belly as he hid behind the opened metallic door of the warehouse.
He brought another gun from his pocket as the one he held before had fallen off his hands during the struggle, he began to aim at the several locations where the automatic guns were.
Benny left the window with a crooked smile on his lips and returned the sniper and other arms into their bags.
He arranged his ruffled uniform properly and cleaned off sweat from his face, ready to walk out of the hotel as he had fulfilled the first part of the plan.
