Out of illusions into reality.

Miss Yumaa watched the young lord toss in bed patiently and caring as she kept collecting the covers being kicked off the bed. She didn't tire abit nor curse his incongruous behaviour. Instead she forced a smile and spoke calmly to her Young Lord. "You going to be ok. Here, take this." She gave him an apple as she left the room. "Let me get you something to eat." She told Bryan who now held the apple not taking a bit.

The door closed behind Yumaa with a soundless lock as her hurried footsteps could be heard across the corridor as she took the stairs down.

"How is he?" Daisy, the maid stationed to look after him asks.

"Mrs. Yumaa?!" Daisy had to shout out now for heavens sake. Mrs. Yumaa all but in high mood singing a sound she not knew the lyrics loudly. Her voice lacking in key made the whole drama spell boring. "Yesss!" She did respond as she fried ang egg ready for Bryan.

"He is upstairs, ok." Yumaa answered as she left the kitchen almost tripping with the tray as she ran up the stairs.

The nurse could not just sit back but followed behind quickly. "Bryaneee??" Mrs. Yumaa called out as she stepped through the door. Bryan stood by the window staring at the glorious west. He looked pretty fine and sound from his back.

"Bryan?" Daisy reached out to him nervously.

"We can go out for a walk in the west." The nurse proposed but again changed the phrase as she turned back to see Mrs. Yumaa giving her a thumbs up as she tried whispering her to make it sound adventurous. "We going to the west, like in the journey to west." She said jovially as Bryan obeyed and followed after them.

The sun had picked power and the heat burned their tosses red. "Help me with water.?" The nurse said reaching out for the bottle held by Yumaa.

"Don't let him get far." Daisy cautioned Mrs. Yumaa as they followed behind Bryan who enjoyed the freedom. Minutes tuned into hours as the duo waited patiently for him to get fed up.

"I miss the old days." Mrs. Yumaa mummered as she remembered how he would entertain her and even dance for her. She pitied him as she walked closer and joined him in his fun.

"Lets get inside the house." It was almost lunch when they all moved back into the house. It was a real hot day.

Bryan kept walking round the room, stopping before the huge family portrait before moving from room to room.

"It's time for his therapy.' The nurse remembered as she walked him to the opposite room created just for this moment.

"Bryan. Wakie! Look. Go after me." The nurse recited her old daily formula.

*****

The night at Josika Village had been all but a living hell. Sounds of gun fire filled the neighborhood as more police enforcement arrived. Berick laid on the ground weak after receiving a blow on his head unprepared. He now opened his eyes and saw the baldy man aiming his rifle at Miss Old Gindi. He had a clear shot range. He had to act in time to save her, he kicked hard with his leg knocking the terrorist over from behind as he stood up. Jereson Kolagi, the suspected leader of an inferior terror squad, rose too to his knees as he spat a thick sputum on the ground.

"Fight me like a man." He challenged Berick as he punched hard in his face.

The fight escalated and soon blood stuck on their knuckles as each tore flesh from the other.

The sound of an approaching chopper turned out to be just a private ride Jeremy had ordered.

Without a word the pilot too was under attack and had to surrender as she was thrown in one of the police vans all tied up.

Berick could hear a distressed call from behind, a police sliced in half as the partner showered bullets on the assasin. He lost focus as a big fist slammed in his face. His left eye black as his mouth all swollen. Jeremy would not stop till he dies. He punched all the way to the ground destroying his mature face Into piece of trash.

Berick could hold on no longer as he let go of his assaulter.

At the same time, an old woman came to Berick call swiftly, a gun positioned readily in her hands.

"Don't move!" She did shout as she caught up with the mad Jeremy.

"HAHAHA !!! Old Gindi!!? 10 years down and you never shot me nor arrested me. Tell me, will you shoot me.?" The old baldy man asked as he turned around his hand behind his back. "Shoot me!" He shouted as he took step after step ignoring Old Gindi.'s threats.

A car some distance away, near the cottage. He moved to it. Now Miss Old Gindi shot at him, but not in the head but shoulder, "Surrender now!"

Old Mis Gindi shot again skinning the enemy's skin on his neck. If she wanted to, she would have killed him but she did hesitate forgetting that it's only an opportunity that comes once in a while.

Erick struggled along too with Mae suffocating in his strong muscular arms.

Erick made it into the cottage before his big boss Kolagi. "Get the package into the car! We are leaving!" Kolagi came in panting as the windows shattered behind him. Seeing that all was going to end in the bad for them.

Katumo shivered in the corner not believing his fate. All he had done was delivering the parcel to the leader, now he was going to loose trust, from everyone, and more than that taken to court for betraying his nation. Same to Jane, she stood a distance away from the fleeing bandit and master as she pulled out her gun and started shooting at the the roof.

"Leave now!" She tell the frightened Governor as she opens a door into the hidden rabbit hole.

"Folllow the path till the end. You will be safe." She gave him the hope as she shut the door killing a terrorist who had been looking after her back.

She joined the police force cunningly killing any enemy she met without a thought, she had to, to keep her stance a secret.

A package was dumbed into the boot of an expensive sporty car as Erick and Kolagi jumped in driving out of the garage madly.

The news was all over the globe. As a video taken from who knows was repeatedly replayed. The broadcaster giving account on who and what these terrorist were.

In a room down stairs, Bryan stood by the door too watching the news. Daisy and Yumaa too, not an eye leaving the screen as they feared for their lifes. No one saw Bryan open the door and leave the premises, not even the gate man who had long fallen asleep in his chair just beside the gate.

"Hey! Yumaa!" The nurse suddenly screamed as she remembered Bryan had yet to get his treatment.

"Bryan!" They searched all over the house but no one saw him. Fear struck them hard as they ran into a frenzy to ask the gate man who almost ran off too leaving his post.

"You pretty girls, scaring me off like that." He joked around ashamed.

"We don't have time, did Bryan go out?" The nurse asked. "Did Bryan go out!" The screamed at the same time sending the gate man timid.

"I don't know... I Was asleep." He cried out. "What's wrong?" He asked but the two ladies ignored him as they rushed out calling out for Bryan.

It was 4 to five, the darkness still covered the sky and horizon. Bryan walked out and onto the road leading to the the capital. His mind was far, in his own world, yet he walked upright and didn't knock over a thing.

He treaded the tarmac road for a while before trying to stop a flashy sporty car speeding his way.

He waited, waving his hands for them to stop. The time ticked and everything seemed to pause as the car loosed control and came screeching hitting him sending him flying over the roof before falling with a thud at the back as the car crushed into a bush.

His illusions faded as he realized it was real. He laid there in a pool as he awaited death to take him.

He saw the driver and passenger run away minutes before his grand ma arrived at the spot with couples of Police men.

Tears ran down his eyes as he lost conscious.

Thanks Grandma for everything. She was his godmother. Always there when needed, like a god.

"Quick! Call an ambulanza!" Miss Old Gindi gave out the command as she tried stopping the blood that flowed out of his body.

Kolagi was unarmed, with no men. They had to find him before too late. His car ditched by the roadside emmited smoke from the engine mayb due to overheating. Bryan lay unconscious in his grandma's hand as the ambulance arrived.

"Take care of him." She whispered back to a nurse who took Bryan away as they left for the hospital.

It was time to work now. Wiping off her tears, she vowed again to kill Jeremy Kolagi before dawn.

"Have you saved that!?" Someone shouted back at a cameraman who had been taking pictures uninvited.

"Mr. Hugh, this is going to be the last warning, leave this site." A officer warned the arrogant reporter who just ignored him and walked suscpiciously towards the police van.
