Chapter 3

 Killian extracted a file from his briefcase and passed it across the table towards three sitting men.

"Seems the resolutions have been carried out. Your boss I think,is really an honest man and it's my pleasure doing business with him." The man in the middle of the three men spoke. He was wearing a glass and glancing at the document. Four hefty bodyguards stood stood behind the men. Mere looking at them, one would think that they were trees in human form because of their erect and motionless state. Other men stood hanging around the environment. Some stationary,some supporting themselves on the wall and others moved slowly around the vicinity all armed to the teeth. He knew his mission wasn't going to be an easy one but hopefully,he thought of a plan.

"What about the pay?". Killian's voice broke the wave of thoughts in him.

"Your wish is my command". The man snapped his fingers noiselessly and a man appeared from nowhere, holding a briefcase. He opened it slightly near Killian's face so he would confirm it. Killian saw well packed bundle of money. Killian took the briefcase and nodded affirmatively. Suddenly,a phone rang and one of the four hefty men behind walked close to the man in the middle and placed a phone to his right ear. One of his hands was behind him—like a waiter.

"Hello".

"Roger". Lord Pablo's Slow cold voice almost interrupted Roger's hello.

"Impeccable Lord Pablo" Roger hailed.

"It's been a very long time pal".

"That's very true Pab. Bythe way how's your family?"

All flourishing and soaring higher".

"Truely I'm impressed. The documents are legit and I have them already at the mercy of my fingers. It's really an honor doing business with you."

"Roger ". Pablo spoke impatiently.

"Yes".

"I keep to my words. I don't do chicken businesses but that's by the way,do you see someone sitting opposite you?"

Pablo's question was wierd that Roger had to look at Killian curiously. He was busy with a chess piece, tossing it freely from his left to right hand, hitting it quietly against the table.

"Yes". Roger answered,still looking at Killian, surprised at his childish act.

" Very good. You know his name?" Roger hesitated before responding "Killian".

"This is what I want you to do for me Roger,and I would be very grateful for that. Turn on the phone's loudspeaker".

Roger fixed his eyes on Killian stil inl utmost confusion. Meanwhile, Killian looked up and his eyes met a curious and confused eye staring at him. He looked away and slowly put the piece back to his pocket feeling somewhat embarrassed and remorseful. Then Roger turned on the loudspeaker.

"Killian". Pablo called out.

Killian looked at the phone and was thinking if he had heard a familiar voice. He didn't know when "boss" forced itself out through his mouth.

"Clear the field boy". Pablo's cool voice had his way again.

Suddenly his cool voice turned soar and acrid as he shouted."RAVAGE everything". An he ended the call.

 Killian suddenly drew out a chain and fllung it across to Roger. It flew powerfully and curled round his neck like a garrote. Roger's neck felt an intense choking which made him to hold onto the chain and with a futile effort,tried to yank it off , gasping for air desperately. Killian,like a leopard jerked and threw himself behind Roger gripping him by the neck to his side,then swirled swiftly, shooting and Killing 7 men in the process. There was at that moment,a heavy frenzy and disorderliness as Roger's men clamped and clocked and cracked their riffles and finally all took positions and aims at one direction— at their boss. Killian was behind Roger,so they were unable to shoot because their boss was used as a shield against them. Roger was still wriggling helplessly like a slaughtered chicken. Killian's hard face influenced his voice.

" Drop your guns". Killian roared. There was silence and hesitation from the men.

" I said drop your fuckin guns assholes I will not repeat myself!!." He pointed his pistol towards the side of Roger's head and clocked it. Roger made an agonizing cackle. Everyone obliged and lowered their guns to the floor.

"Kick it forward and move back". He ordered.

All the men began kicking their guns forward and moving backward. 

"Everyone on your back." He shouted. Soon the men began turning on their backs. Killian moved towards the table and grabbed the briefcase. He also dropped something on the floor below the table and dragged both himself and Roger towards the door. Unknown to him, someone hiding at one end of the room was already set to knock him down. As he got closer to the door,he felt something move beside him. Llike lightning he quickly took a sidestep, maneuvering his body from the dagger hurled at him. He retaliated with a powerful punch at the cheek of the attacker, throwing him off the ground. He wasn't fully recovered when a bullet whistled into his head and he gave up.

"who else wants to die?". He shouted, rather more calmly. There was serenity in the room.

 When the men soon realize that their boss was out of their sight,they all picked up their guns and ran towards the exit door. They were not all out of the hall when something made quick beeping sounds and exploded, blowing up the remaining men that were still inside the hall. It's heavy explosion shook in pieces the glasses in the windows. Killian pulled along with him Roger into an elevator and both ascended up to 27th floor before the explosion. The elevator door opened And Killian walked out of it alone. Roger was on the floor; unconscious.

 Killian held the briefcase with his right hand and with his left hand,he held his chain. After scanning around the house,he stooped his body slightly and scurried towards a doorless exit leading to a passage by the right. There were many rows of doors on each side of the passage.

Killian carefully moved a bit forward and suddenly stopped. Then a man came out of the other end and aimed at him but he was quick enough to bundle into the door boldly written 27th. A bullet whisked past him above his shoulders and burrowed into the wooden table before him. That was when he knew the game had become intense. He heard loud foot tappings and he hid beside the door. The door suddenly yanked agape and a man with a gun rushed in. Killian quickly garrotted him with his chain. Two other men rushed into the room but were very unlucky as Killian powerfully curled his chain around the neck of one of them and tugged his head against the wall. The other man shot at him and tried aiming again but could not as Killian pounced on him and dragged the gun from him. The rest followed. 

 Killian came out of the room 27th and ran out through the passage towards the dark by the he left. There he was met with gun shots but managed to attack and kill all the men. He turned and dashed into an elevator in front of him. 

 Killian came out into.a room full of spoilt electronics.He climbed a tall ladder and creeped out of the room through a tiny opening on the wall where the ladder leaned.

 A man staggered towards the closed elevator, holding his wounded ribs in excruciating pain. He was sweating profusely and the expression on his face depicted pain.He managed to the door and collapsed against the elevator door. He closed his eyes and swallowed hard with all his might as if his relief depended on it.He gasped for breath as his eyes searched through empty environment. He tightly gripped a pistol with his blood stained left hand. It seems he got into a fight with someone. 

 A cry was heard behind him and this made him recede away from the elevator. He had crawled to the other end behind a table and pointed his pistol to the elevator where the sounds came from. 

 The elevator door soon slided open and Roger fell out. The hiding man got terrified that he pointed the pistol on his head and shot himself dead.
