72 HOURS KILL MISSION

72 HOURS KILL MISSION EPISODE THIRTEEN

I moved away from the door and hurriedly walked back to Dante and whispered to him that it was the cops..

Dante: s**t!.. why would the cops come here, they know you are out of prison?..

He whispered back and i shrugged my shoulder walking towards the couch..

Me: how the hell would i know that?..

He took his gun and handed it over to me. Took off his jacket and shirt and and handed them to me too.

Dante: who is there?..

He must have said that to keep the officers engaged but they responded by sounding the door bell again..

Dante: go side the bedroom and hide, if anyone walks in there that is not me, kill without hesitation.. do you understand?..

He asked holding on to both of my arms and looking me straight in the eyes..

All this talking we were still doing in whispers.

He took off his belt and trouser too and signalled me go hide as he walked to the door in a short and bare chested.

He opened the door rubbing his eyes and yawning..

Dante: officers?

He pretended to be surprised and yawned again..

Dante: is there a problem?

Officer: no, but we understand there was a shoot out and the neighbors from the other block said the shootout that left two officers and two other people dead were from this block. Could you be aware of what happened?..

Dante: you do interrogation at this time of the night?

Officer: our type of job has no perfect timings.. we act when duty calls..

Dante: you are right but I wasn't home early and when i came in everything must have settled but i realized the guards were not at their station. I have no idea of what had happened. I only heard rumors too.

The officers tried to peep inside and on seeing nothing suspecious they left and went to the next apartment. Its like they were doing some sort of random checks and we might have gotten away with that one.

When Dante came back inside, i had my gun in hand ready to shoot just incase the officers came in and i was worried. He announced his coming in then I took a deep breath and lowered the gun. I swear i was so tensed that of he hadn't announced that it was him coming in, i would have shot all the bullets in him.

Dante: they are still on this floor.

Me: what are they looking for?

Dante: not you.. they know crime went down here but they have no idea who committed it.

I nervously paced inside the room as he got dressed then i stopped abruptly because he had his eyes on me the entire time.. maybe i made him nervous too, I don't know.

Dante: you didn't tell me there was an attack here earlier.. why?

Me: because i didn't want you to start moving me around and besides, i have no idea who those people were. I was locked inside the entire time. You know i cannot be seen in public right?..

He continued dressing up and when he was done, he got his gun from me..

Dante: don't worry about your staying here. It's only going to be a few days..

He walked to the bedroom window and peeped outside to check if the police officers were still there but they were gone..

He said he was leaving and I felt like it was a good thing because after the kiss he planted on my mouth, i felt like had he stayed, it would have turned into something i would regret.

He walked back to the living room and I followed him not sure if it would be safe if he stayed. He picked his car keys, opened the door and left..

The following day say around 11:00am I heard the door bell ring and i hurried to go and get it. I had been in the kitchen preparing some breakfast after oversleeping after the long night I had the previous day.

I peeped in to check who it was and i saw Dante. I pulled the door open and right behind him was Jonas. The same Jonas i had worked for in the club. The one who gladly sold me off to Rex. This was Dante's brother?.. i couldn't hide the shock in my face as they both stood there staring at my in appropriate dressing. I was in a long Tshirt with a cleavage and my underwear that were slightly covered by the shirt.

Dante: hi.

He said walking in assuming the shock I was in.

Jonas: Davina..

He called following Dante as i checked outside for any more surprises and when i saw none else joining us, i closed the door and walked to the living room where they were and Dante had a travel bag with him.

Dante: I don't think you two need any form of introduction.

He said that after noticing how Jonas and I were looking at each other. I couldn't believe that Dante and him were really brothers and how was that even possible?.. Storm told me of both Dante and Jonas screwing him over together with Rex,.. was he really telling the truth?..

Jonas: you look shocked. You didn't expect you would see me again?

I didn't respond to that and Dante asked me to sit and i did.

If it were an ordinary day i would blow off their heads but i needed answers. I didn't know who to trust anymore.

Dante took off the stuff that that were in the bag and it was some very nice clothes, shoes and shades. He also had a set of make up and for a second all that didn't make sense.. i was still stuck in my world where i was trying to figure out stuff..

Me: what are all these for?..

I asked not taking interest in taking a close look at them.

Dante: here..

He said handing me a head mask, i don't know if that's what its called but it was a mask that was worn from the head all the way to the face to give you a totally different look. The color was in my skin tone and it looked like it was part of my body. How the hell did they even make that?..

Jonas: i know you have alot of questions that you need answers to...

Me: do you?..

Jonas: yes.

Me: great, who killed my friend Debby and why?..

Dante: this is not the time..

Me: I'm not taking to you because you haven't told me a single truth since i started talking to you. Before i knew you, i knew Jonas, he was my boss and i also know he screwed Debby so I want to know.

Jonas: your friend was killed by a guy called Storm. I understand he had captured you the other day?.

Me: who is this storm and why is everyone afraid of him?..

They looked at each other like they were trying to communicate something but he didn't answer that..

Jonas: Debby didn't deserve to die and you have every reason to be upset. Listen, we might sound like the bad guys here by asking you to take these guys out but its for your good too.

Me: for my good... You are sending me on a suicide mission..

Jonas: not really. I know you. Debby laid all s**t bare before me and I know about you being part of a gang. I have your records. All the banks you ever robbed, the people you killed, i know things you don't know about yourself. Things that are hidden from the system and should land you a forever jail time if found by the government. My brother and I are giving you a second chance. You get this mission done and we fly you out of the country. We give you a clean slate. No one really has to know you exist.

Me: how do i know that you will not double cross me and feed me to the cops as soon as they find out Rex is dead?..

Dante: you don't. All you have is our word and you can choose to believe it or not..

I took a deep breath then got up and checked out the mask. It looked so real and Dante assured me that once i put it on and did make up, no one would really know who i was. It was going go give me a different identity..

Me: okay.. looks like i don't have a choice. So when do i begin?..

Jonas: tomorrow. Your mission ends on Thursday then you board your plane on Friday. You will have picked a destination of your choice and we will have Morgan book the flight for you. Dante will get you through the airport and make sure you board. We will have your papers changed and you will have a different identify.

Me: okay. So what happens today?..

Dante: you rest. Study how to get to Rex, he is not the guy you knew two years ago. He has a few people working for him, you know some of them but they are not just people you can get past..

Jonas: here is a flash disk containing the structure of his hide out. Dante thinks you can also access his private home.. you know you two had some chemistry..

I looked at Dante and he looked away, how could he put my private life in public like that.

Jonas: its not him.. Rex told me everything he was doing just that you never knew what his agenda really was. He was using you..

Me: just like you are using me now.. is there a difference between you and him, you called him your friend yet you are planning to kill him..

Dante: he deserves it..

Me: why, you double crossed him because he was sleeping with your girl, speaking of your girl.. where is she?

Jonas: Erika is dead.. and I dont think this is the time to go back and forth. You can't get emotionally attached to this mission or i will take you down with him..

Me: and now with the threats again..

Dante: Jonas and i are done here.. everything you need to know is in that flash. We don't know how you are going to do it, but you have three days starting tomorrow. Morgan will drive you around and we have an IT guy who will help c***k the codes to places you can't access.

Jonas: make sure no one lives to tell the story. You only have one chance.. don't blow it up...

With those words they walked out of my apartment and now it was more real than ever. I had been fooled all along and i was still being sent on a mission that could easily get me killed. Storm said the truth about Dante, Rex and Jonas working together but still there was something that was off about him. Why was no one telling me anything about him and why was everyone so afraid of him?..

I took the mask and headed to my room to put it on and see how it would make me look. I pinned my hair then wore the mask and let the fake hair flow over my shoulder. I looked different, the face in the mirror was beautiful and the truth is no one would know it was really me.

I left the mask on and i decided to go out. I needed to do my own investigations and its not like I wasn't to go through with the mission but i wanted to know how all these guys were involved and why i was stuck in the middle..

I wore a pull neck to cover the ends of the mask on my neck then left the apartment a few minutes after Dante and Jonas had left..

I got a cab and asked the driver to take me to Debby's place. I didn't know who was living there but i needed to find out what our former gang knew about her death or what really happened on the day of that mission that we both got shot...

Jeff and Storm were waiting outside the apartment and the entire time Dante and Jonas were there, they were aware but they didn't follow them after they left. Storm was aware of what they were there for and he had to tag Jeff along because he didn't trust him on his own with Dante..

Jeff: so what now?..

Storm: follow that cab. I want to know where the hell she is going..

he got his gun and c****d it then had it in his hand ready for any surprises.

Jeff: are you going to kill her?

Storm: just drive!..

Jeff started the car without asking any more questions. With storm, it was do or die.. what was storm upto and why was he following Davina?....
