EPISODE 37B
safety officials in this estate?’
‘There are’ James answered him, ‘but they stay
at specific points and moreover the driver is a
learner’
‘A learner should not hit a busy road’ Greg
barked on.
‘This place is not a busy road, we are in an
estate, there’s only one car beside us’ James
said staring at the Lexus Jeep beside them.
The driver was a middle aged man dressed in
Yoruba native attire, Agbada.
Two uniformed officers jumped down from the
police van which followed the car and hurried
forward to clear the road.
The officers hit their guns on the car to get the
attention of the driver, the windows were all
winded up, two road safety officials in their
yellow and black uniforms also came to join
them.
The driver was bowed down, her head was on
her laps. One of the police officers tried to
force open the door to the driver’s seat but it
was hard and not opening. The driver made no
movement still.
‘Get out of the way’ Greg surged towards them
angrily. He tried to force open the door but
couldn’t so shifted backwards and stood in a
parallel line to the door. He aimed at the door
lock carefully and shot at it, the door gave way
finally. He rushed towards the driver with an
intention of pulling her out and driving the car
out of the way.
The sole of the shoe on the lady’s right leg hit
his face as he moved to touch her, Greg fell to
the floor with his face bleeding. She removed
two guns from the both sides as she came out
of the car, her face was covered with a mask.
+++++++++
The bullet which had missed Robin’s body got
into Aisha’s stomach, she was bleeding and
losing strength rapidly. Robin only noticed it
when she began to slowly drop from his hands.
He tried to pick her up but her legs couldn’t
stand anymore, he began to lose hope
gradually, his plan of escape to use her as an
hostage was failing already. His legs were also
becoming weaker, he had to place his right
knee on the ground.
He ran out of luck when Cole finally appeared
at the entrance, pointing a gun at him. Cole did
not waste time in releasing two bullets, one
which entered into his chest and the other into
his head. He fell flat and rolled out of the
ambulance with a thud.
Cole quickly rushed towards Aisha and picked
her up, he carried her and dropped her on the
ground, close to the car. He brought out a shirt
from the car and tore it into pieces , trying to
use the pieces to hold Aisha’s wound from
bleeding.
‘She’s going to die if we don’t get out of here
quickly’ Cole shouted at Benny who was
dragging himself towards them.
Benny rushed to open the gate quickly and Cole
drove the car out of the compound.
‘Where are we going to get treatment now? We
can’t go to the hospital’ Benny commented as
he joined Aisha at the back seat of the car.
‘If we can’t go to the hospital, a doctor can
come to us’ Cole answered him, he took a
glance at the clock in the car. ‘The street
cameras would be alive in one minute’
Sounds of several gunshots from the back
startled them. Cole and Benny stared
backwards to see a lady in gun battle with the
police.
++++++++++++++
A bullet entered into Greg’s head, keeping him
on the floor permanently. Bullets were also sent
into the bodies of other officers who were at
that side of the car.
Tarasha bent to escape the bullets coming from
the back. She entered back into the car and
pulled it back, she didn’t need to start the
engine again because it was never switched
off.
She took a quick turn and rushed in direction of
the police cars, sending out bullets to them
from the front mirror.
Inspector James was out of the car already, he
was hiding behind and sending bullets to the
attacker. He watched as bullets were sprayed
out from the range Rover as it approached
them, eighty percent of his men, most of those
who came out of the police van were down
already.
He jumped and landed on the car’s boot before
the range Rover hit the car, he had a clear view
of the lady and quickly sent two bullets her
way.
She rolled out of the car before the bullet was delivered. James moved forward, climbing the top of the car as he released more bullets from the gun. The lady was out of sight already.
Tarasha rolled carefully but with speed under the Hyundai Sonata police vehicle and came out from behind, she first dealt with the remnant of the officers that came out of the police van before turning to the officer who was on the car. A bullet hit her back as she turned.
+++++++++++++++
'More backup is needed at Gravel estate' Sandra relayed James' request to the superintendent.
'Handle that' the man replied her in a gruff voice without bothering to take a look at her.
He had too many problems of his own and wasn't ready to be troubled this afternoon by any state problem. Moreover, he had decided to wash his hands off this 'Samantha's case' since the country did not trust him enough to handle it and had to allow a foreigner do the job.
