My blood was pumping hard now,just as I liked
it,the epinephrine had kicked in,”its been way too
long since i’ve felt this way”.there was a mixture
of fulfillment and fear pumping through me as I
ran,i could only hope to spot a tree that would
take me up and hide me till the morning,there was
no way these niggas could get hold of me
then.Just then,i heard a very loud voice probably
from the clearing yelling into the silent night,”make
una no throw am overboard oooooo…….carry am
come make em contact ruggedity”.immediately the
voice ceased to speak,i heard five sets of footsteps
running closely behind me,”what the f**k”,i
thought,it’s either these guys are into athletics or
they had some spiritual help cos I was running
frigging fast and another thing was the air of
confidence about the way the voice spoke as if it
was a hundred percent sure that I would be caught
by the guys now hot on my heels…
All of a sudden,i started wishing I hadn’t dropped
my gun,d--n!!!,these niggas could run fast!!!this
was something I hadn’t made plans for earlier ‘cos
I was hoping to outrun them…..I was almost out of
breath when I suddenly had a change of plan,i
dropped on the ground abruptly and rolled into
some underlying shrubs and waited for the first
fool who would make his way into my ambush…
Thump!thump!!thump!!! the unfortunate guy ran
into my waiting arms..I didn’t give him time to
think,jumping on him and straddling him from
behind,i used my strong feet to hook his hands
behind him,my burly arms wrapped around his
neck,he was in a chokehold…..our bodies crashed
to the ground but it would take a lot more than
that to pry me away from my victim….He struggled
in vain as I snapped his neck…….I was a stone
cold killer,i had the advantage or so I thought!!!!
better yet these guys didn’t know the first thing
about ”Blood”……I was prepared to give them a
lesson or two…….
As I still grappled with the lifeless body of the
cultist whose life I had just snuffed out….i heard a
couple more advancing footsteps,dry leaves and
twigs snapping sounds grew louder as I hid the
body preparing for another assault on these as I
had termed them,”intruders”. Judging from the
bodies of the guy I had stunned earlier with my
jabs and the lifeless body at my feet. I could only
make a simple conclusion,these boys were not
just a rag-tag group of mummy’s boys throwing a
parade.They were hunky death machines but I had
the advantage of speed in addition to my well
toned muscular physique courtesy of long hours at
the gym…I was crouching now as two more of
them crashed through the shrubbery least
expecting to find their target crouching and
patiently waiting to launch a deadly assault.As
quick as lightening,i threw sand at both their
eyes,jumping really high,i planted both of my feet
on the first guy’s chest,he fell backward hitting his
head hard on a tree trunk,not waiting to find out if
he was passed out or not.i jumped on the other
guy and straddled him just like I did with the dead
guy…
As soon as I curled my arms around his
neck….leaves rustled directly above my head….i
hadn’t anticipated another one of them this
soon.”gbiim” he hit me point blank on the face
with the butt of his rifle…..i staggered up,blood
poured from my nose,”gbiim”yet another head butt
from the guy whose neck I had nearly snapped a
few seconds ago….i fell to the ground and
everything went black
”you are no longer the blood I used to know”
echoed again and again in my head becoming
louder each time it was being repeated,louder and
louder it got until I started screaming.
With a startle,i opened my eyes and felt pains all
over my body,the pains told the tale;i had being
brutally beaten even as I had passed out.I had
opened my eyes just as I was being dragged into
the clearing which I had being spying on earlier,my
vision was blurred,my speech slurred and I felt
blood dripping down my face. I couldn’t tell the
intensity of the beating I had taken but was able to
make out the form of the guy whose neck I had
snapped earlier being dragged into the clearing
and simultaneaously,a ruccus erupted within the
confraternity,”kill am…..kill am”rent the air all
around me as I wondered how they knew I was
still alive.I was able to detect the strong smell of
alcohol and marijuana within the clearing,any
sense of judgement which this lot possessed
before that I may have counted upon to save my
life was utterly gone,these niggas were high and I
doubt that in this state they could reason,i had
already prepared to walk through the gates of hell
because I knew heaven would be a dream for
me.As they prepared to pounce on me,a shrill
voice,the same one I had heard earlier while on the
run.”maintain” it issued authoritatively getting
closer,the angry mob fell backward as they said in
unison,”D1 most rugged”.It took the last strength I
had in me to open my eyes fully.there standing
before me was a hunky,heavily built guy….My
assessment of him was cut short when he spoke
to me,”so na you enter Iceland dey form jet-li abi
”………Maybe I was gonna die after all…….
