UNKNOWN

Hansel sauntered out of the car and Alixies who watched from a distance stuttered in disbelief~ her jaw stiffened as the words faintly escaped her lips. " Mr Hansel?"She gasped and this grew her curiosity the more.

" Why is he here ?" She thought but then, a thought hinted which shoved off the other- her eyes instinctively widened as they involuntarily bated. " Did they already call for a ransom for his head?" She mumbled. But then, something else caught her attention which gave life to her previous thought; the man guarding the entrance spontaneously bowed his head in respect the moment Hansel trod past him.

'' What the hell is going on here" She exclaimed and as if on an impulse, added. "Nothing seem to add up~ I must find out what all this is about" . After Hansel had faded in with the man at the entrance, Alixies hastened down as well and crept in through the only source of entry which her quick survey had proven.

"Where did you keep him?" She heard him inquire as their voices faded into the corner they took to which she slowly followed, making sure she wasn't seen.

Mya had wanted to tail after Hansel after he had left the office in a rush but then Laura managed to get her off. She had combed the whole campus for Rubin after Mya followed Hansel out to the parking lodge in a bid to get him to stop her but then, he was no where to be found– thorn between disappointment and despair, she returned, just in time when Mya had turned her car into motion; about to follow Hansel's car which just moved out.

She fretted in confusion, her face flushed with a lot rushing through her subconscious mind as she fought back the idea of taking over her body after what had happened the last time but then, she had to do something and the question now was what?~ her mind was too devastated to think of anything and time wasn't on her side either. She instinctively felt her head spinning out of frustration as she fought back the urge–overwhelmed by the whole situation, she screamed with closed eyes of which her hands spontaneously covered her ears.

On an instant, she felt Mya's car suddenly came to a halt to which she automatically froze, surprised at the sudden silence.

" What's going on?– Did she see me?" She thoughtfully mumbled as her eyes flickered open. " Or....." She intuitively paused on an impulse on noticing what had happened. She gasped as she loosed her clutches over the wheel, inspecting her hands and then her face.

"Oh!" She groaned when the reflected image in the driver's mirror caught her attention –She had possessed Mya again.

"Oh, no–Oh no, what did I just do" She cried, to which she tried teleporting out of her body but then, it seemed she was stuck. "What's happening? –Why can't I come out?" She grumbled, every effort just miserably failed. That's when she had the thought again; at least she could stop her now and then, find out more about her plans. Driving out of the lodge, she decided to go first to the phone shop Mya had visited a few days ago after she had earlier received a call from him concerning the phone. As she drove through the bustle streets with its brightly lit stores and busy sidewalks, she reached for Mya's phone from her side as the thought of Rubin invaded her subconscious mind again~ his absence from campus kept bothering her and Alixies as well, she had neither set eyes on her either. The sudden thought of her got her strangely worried. She first dialed Rubin's line and with a few rings, it dropped without an answer– She tried over and over again but had the same result. With a creased brow and a frown, she glanced at the screen. "Why isn't he answering the phone?–Hope he's alright" She mumbled. " Maybe Alixies may know his whereabout ~i'll ask her." Not hesitating, she dialed her line but just like Rubin's, it came without an answer which got her even more worried.

"What's going on?" She stuttered. Taking a turn to a deserted road at her right, she spontaneously pulled the car to a halt as she focused on the cell. Her eyes keenly focused on the screen, she tried tracking Alixies' destination to which she succeeded.

"Here you are" She exclaimed but then was surprised at the location. " Old Marion Bay?" She thoughtfully mumbled. "But what's she doing over there?" She stuttered but had no answers to her questions which ate her up. Old Mario Bay was their school's old residence before it was moved to it's current location. This raised a lot of suspicions and without wasting much time, Laura headed straight to the location.

Ben was tied up in a chair and blind folded with a black cloth when Hansel walked in. Alixies instinctively paused and hid behind a pillar which was about 100metres away from them as they got in– making sure not to raise alarm, she spied on on them from time to time, catching a glimpse of the whole scene~ She intuitively gasped as her doubts became clearer now. Alixies' suspicions about their Principal came to light and she trembled with fear as she begun to record from afar.

Ben instinctively struggled in attempt to free himself the moment he heard the voices and the steps which inched over to him. It finally halted in front of him to which a voice ordered.

"Take it off " With that, he felt the cloth unwrapped from his eyes and he instantly gazed up from the feet of his guest.

"Dad?" He gasped, his shock written all over his face as his face flushed with rage, betrayal and disbelief. Hansel chortled. "Yes, son– It's me, surprised?" His smugguish gaze displayed his satisfaction as he sauntered from one end of the room to the other with Ben's eyes tailing his every step with contempt.

" Do you think I'll just let go off you after all I did for you?" He asked over his shoulders and smiled.
