Swords Tactical Commando Team And The Devils
His team was called Swords Tactical Commando Team (STCT) under The Three Kings Military Force (TKMF), a private military company that provides armed combat and security services for financial gain.
The 12-man team were all specially trained and equipped to conduct high-risk, special operations on the territory of both domestic and foreign countries, especially in extremely hostile areas.
The assignments the team always take on include:
The neutralization and capture, of terrorist groups, which might include snipers, hijackers, kidnappers, bombers, or assassins.
The recovery of hostages and property held by terrorists; and The recovery of buildings and installations held by terrorists.
STCT draws its members from the Army, Navy, and Air force which included divers for underwater missions and underwater medic. They were all multi-lingual, each man spoke at least three foreign languages.
On getting to base, all the team members were already waiting for him inside the command center, the pictures and data of the Ituha brothers popularly known as The Devils were already displayed on the large screen.
"Captain"
"Hawk"
They all chorused in greetings when he came inside.
"Okay let's have it," he said towards Aaliyah, The HOD command center specialists. She immediately started addressing the team, looking towards the big screen on the wall.
"The Ituha brothers, Ighide and Ighile were the leader and second in command of Nigeria's most dreaded crime syndicate called The Devils. Ighide aka the black devil and Ighile the red devil, both escaped the raid on their Benin mansion, carried out by the state police three years ago.
The brothers were both wanted for: organized crime, serial bomb blast, drug trafficking, weapon trafficking, prostitution, contract killing, extortion, robbery, fraud, money laundering, human trafficking, and kidnapping.
According to the confession of their crooked accountant who was recently captured and convicted of racketeering of various sorts.
He said the Ituha brothers both fled the country on the same day but to different locations, which was known only to them. Nobody knows the tactics the brothers devised to escape the hands of law that made tracking them down difficult.
The good news is, The Investigation And Intelligence Agency (IAIA), just discovered the black devil's hideout in Samaheej, a small village in Bahrain kingdom. He has been living a secluded life befitting of a king under the village chief's and the local police's protection in exchange for monthly hefty allowances.
The bad news is, Nigeria and Bahrain didn't have an extradition treaty so extradition is ruled out in this case, which is why STCT was contacted by the government agency in charge of his case.
They want us to devise a suitable method of bringing this bastard back home immediately, bearing in mind that we want to do it quietly and with little or no bloodshed.
According to the intel given to us which I have personally verified, he has a girlfriend named Rahamat, a nurse who he usually visits once a month. She also provides for him full-bodied and adequate medical check-ups twice a year because of his weak immune system which has always made him prone to frequent infections since when he was a baby.
Today is Friday, his next check-up is scheduled for Sunday, which is the only opportunity we have to get him outside of the Samaheej territory, so we have to move now if we hope to get him immediately. Any question so far?"
She finished with her report and asked, looking towards the whole team members. They all started asking questions one after the other...
"What about his doctors?" Asked Raphael one of the team's medic.
"Rahamat always finds a suitable doctor for him and she never uses the service of a doctor twice. Smart right?"
"Not that smart, she just has trust issues," Zek said
"Yeah, she should, being the kind of sadistic bastard her boyfriend is. So many enemies lurking around the corners to nab his ass" Harris said.
"Where are they going to be meeting?" Zak asked.
"Her apartmet, which is at the outskirt of Arad, a small town located on Muharraq Island, away from prying eyes and CCTVs"
"This is going to be as easy as ABC for us, easy to burst in on them and get him out effortlessly," said Zik.
"Nope, not as easy as you think..."
"What...the Samaheej army would follow him to the city?" Zik asked again.
"Not the Samaheej's army, mercenaries, we don't know how many yet, but they would be waiting to protect him at his girlfriend's place along with the doctor...plus his own four personal bodyguards.
"Pull up the map of Muharraq" Tunde spoke for the first time since the meeting started. The large screen then changed to a map of the entire Muharraq Island with Rayya highway that links Maharraq to Samaheej highlighted in blue.
Aaliyah check for any mercenaries around the vicinity and hack into their database system, let's see who got the contract to protect this devil.
"Yes sir," she said and came to sit in front of her computer. He watched as her fingers speedily skipped through the keyboard. She was the only person in the whole of Africa who could almost nearly rival his skill as a hacker.
Aaliya was an Afro-Asian, who was born and neglected with her grandmother by her Chinese mother and a Nigerian father.
Seven years ago, The Kings Software development and IT consulting company, was contracted by the CEO of a popular bank in West Africa to trace a bank heist worth millions in naira.
His investigation later lead him to China where he was expecting to burst a large cybergang crime syndicate, instead, he was surprised when he discovered it was all done by a seventeen years old kid.
After much reasoning, he was able to persuade the bank CEO to let the case rest, since he got the whole stolen money back, it would be in the interest of the bank if the girl was not prosecuted. He explained to the CEO...
"If the press gets hold of this, how do you explain to your clients who thought their funds were safe with your bank that a seventeen-year-old high school dropout broke into your database's defensive system?
She's just a kid who needed to pay for her grandmother's hospital bills, and who thought bank in Africa would be an easy target for her to steal money from."
Since she has proven herself to be the best by hacking through a security system that cost you a fortune to install, my advice is for you to forgive her crime and she would, in turn, install for you an impenetrable system, as payment for the stress she made you go through."
After that was sorted, he took her under his wings, made sure she finished high school, got her degree in computer science and engineering, and later became the HOD of the Three Kings Military force's command center specialists at twenty-four years old.
"Got it, sir. " Aaliyah's voice broke through his thought. "They are known as 'Easy gun for hire' they usually meet at the basement of an old building in Muharraq. Sending the address to you now"
"That's it guys, we are now the real members of the Easy gun for hire team. We are taking over their operation. Get your gears ready...we move in three hours." Tunde said to his team.
