KILLER WITHIN

KILLER WITHIN EPISODE NINE

Martin was left struggling as he dragged himself to the seat to try and find his phone so that he could call for help. He was bleeding and was in much pain because when Lexi pulled the knife, he felt like it cut something from within him.

He flagged his hand on top of the seat but the phone was not there. He couldn't move anymore because of the pain so he stop struggling and lay on the floor hopeless.

Vera's team arrived for the meeting she had called. The meeting was taking place in the late Thompson's house as vera had access to everything in that house.

George showed up first and both him and vera had a few minutes to catch up before the rest of the team showed up..

Vera and George were in Thompson's office and she was briefing him on what was yet to be done before the virus was ready to be delivered to whoever Thompson was making it for.

Vera: you have been MIA on me lately what have you been up to?

She said going around his seat and sitting on the table right in front of him.

George: I've been busy vera.

Vera: too busy for this?

She asked pulling her skirt and exposing her thighs to him. He smiled and brushed his hand on her thighs.

George: not really. Just generally busy. Tell me something,..did George have a personal assistant?

He asked getting up and brushing his hand on her arms then he moved closer and grabbed her waist and pulled her towards him as he looked into her eyes.

Vera: not that I know of,... why?

He responded to that question by planting a kiss on her mouth and playfully traced his finger along her cleavage.

George: some lady came by the office claiming to be Thompson's PA. She wanted to do business.

Vera: what sort of business?

George: I'm yet to find out.

Vera: we need to hurry with this plan George, what if she was Thompson's lover and he told her about this too?

George: don't panic, I will handle it.

Vera unbuttoned his shirt and started kissing him and unzipping his pants. Of course this got him going so he moved her over to the desk and let her lay on it. He raised her skirt and pulled down her black laced panty. All the kissing and the caressing had gotten both of them in the mood and she couldn't wait for George to f**k the hell out of her which she made him do and in a short while, the pens and the files were dropping off the table with loud moans from both of them but mostly vera. She seemed to be enjoying that more than George was because Georges mind had already drifted to Lexi and the conversation they had previously.

"Why did she lie to me,.... Who is she and what did she want with me, why did she have to pose as Thompson's P.A I mean what does she know?"

Vera: hey.... Are you okay?

She asked pulling away from him noticing that his mind had drifted and the way he was banging her on that desk wasn't normal. He pulled back then pulled her skirt down and zipped his trouser then buckled his belt and walked out of the office and left vera all confused.

She removed her panty, dumped it in her handbag then quickly got down and ran after him.

Vera: where are you going, we have a meeting.

George: cancel it.

Vera: what?

He turned and looked at her.

George: I don't think we are the only ones who knows about Thompson.

Vera: you think she knows about the deal?

George: that's what I'm going to find out. We need to lay low until we know what she knows.

George walked out on her and left before people arrived for the meeting and vera had no choice but to cancel the meeting just as George had requested.

Remi had called Stella and told her what had happened the previous night when she visited Martin. Remi didn't want to go after Martin because of Lexi but on second thoughts, what had she to loose. She left him for all that while and maybe Stella was right when she said, that was her chance to take back the love of her life.

Remi told Stella how mad Lexi had been and because of everything Martin had told Stella on Lexi, she went to check if her brother was still okay because she had a feeling he was not.

She parked her car outside the gate and went inside the gate to the apartment. Before Stella left home, she had tried to call Martin but the phone was not going through.

She got to the door and knocked but no one answered so she pushed it open and let herself in calling Martin as she walked towards the living room only to see her brother lying down holding on to his chest.

Stella: Martin!

She shouted running up to him and getting down to where he was. She shook him and felt his pulse and the good thing was that he was still alive. Barely alive but he was alive. She ran out and shouted for help going down the stairs and when some few neighbors heard her, they went to listen.

The neighbors helped Stella get Martin to the car though she did not explain to them what she thought could have happened since Martin couldn't speak and she didn't want to accuse Lexi without proof.

They put Martin in Stella's car and she drove him to the nearest hospital as she called Remi to help her with the reports. Remi was shocked. She knew Lexi was a psycho but she never knew she would really hurt him.

Remi told Stella to send her the pin to the hospital and she was going to be with them shortly..

Stella: you can't leave me Martin!

She said speeding and thanking God that there was no traffic.

Stella: you are everything I have. I warned you to stay away from that murderer but you wouldn't listen. Now look what that crazy witch did to you.

She couldn't stop cursing and she finally took the route that led to the hospital and when she got there, she quickly got out and shouted for the nurses to come and two more emerged from inside with a stretcher.

The nurses helped get Martin out and from the look of things, he was in a bad shape.

Stella: is he going to be okay?

She asked as the doctor approached and followed the nurses. Stella followed them too.

Doctor: we can't tell until we know what happened to him.

Stella: he got stubbed.

Doctor: I can see that, please wait outside...

They locked Stella out and asked her to wait until the doctors were done handling Martin.

Gloria called Lexi to ask her if she had been at Banda's house but the call went answered. Gloria was scared of what Lexi could do especially after she got a call from the police warning her to keep tabs on her daughter or she was going to be gunned down like a criminal.

Lexi was right, Gloria didn't really care about her especially after she heard about her condition after the operation. Gloria had hoped that Lexi would be fine and come out of the operation room without any complications but learning that she still had to deal with a psychotic killer was something she didn't know how to handle.

Gloria at some point wished Lexi could die so that she would have less time looking after her but when she lived, and not only lived but came back as a murderer, she didn't know what to do with her.

Lexi didn't report to work as she had told Martin she was going to. She instead went to George's office to wait for him because that's where her visions had pushed her to. Thompson wanted her to get vera but she didn't know where to find her. In her vision she had seen George and vera together so she knew George would lead her to vera somehow.

"Someone is waiting in your office sir"

George's secretary told him as he walked into his office.

George: I don't remember having an appointment with anyone.

Secretary: you don't sir but it's the same lady who came the other day.

George: Lexi?

Secretary: yes, Lexi.

He hurriedly walked into the office and when he entered and closed the door, Lexi turned and looked at him then smiled.

She was looking at a frame of photo that had some guys In it. They looked like they were friends but they were all in suits like it was some sort of a professional photo.

Lexi: this was a nice one. Are they your friends?

George nodded not sure how to react especially after learning that Lexi could be pausing as someone she was not.

George: yeah those are my friends.

He said making his way to her, taking the frame from her and putting it on the shelf where it was.

Lexi: wow, you don't seem to be in a good mood. I'm sorry, I should have waited outside. Your secretary told me to wait for you here.

George: no that's okay, it's not a big deal. What brought you?

Lexi: someone told me you guys are having vacancies, I came to try my luck in the main office, then I decided to pass by and say hi. You don't seem happy to see me.

George: I am. Just that I didn't expect to find you here. So what's the plan?

Lexi sensed something in George and she thought he had made her out or was about to. The George that was speaking to her was not the George that had kissed her the other night.

Everything inside of her told her to leave before things blew up and she found a way to excuse herself.

George: come on, I didn't mean to be rude. I thought you could suggest dinner or lunch. You know we have some unfinished business right?

Lexi: yeah, but I don't think you are in the mood to entertain me at the moment so I will leave and give you a call.

George: okay.

George didn't want it to seem like he was after her for some other reasons so he let her go.

Remi got to the hospital and found Stella and from the look on Stella's face, she knew things were bad.

She hugged Stella then they sat on the bench waiting for the doctor to come out and tell them Martin was okay..

Remi: it's all my fault.

Stella: it's not. That was bound to happen. Remi: but it happened because I went there.

Stella: it could have happened even without you going there. Let's just wait for the doctor.

When Lexi left George's office, she went straight to her father's office to see him there. Lexi had been doing research and she found out not only where her father lived but where he worked.

She got there and found the secretary, asked her if Banda was in but before she could be let in, she found her way into Banda's office and found him on call.

Lexi didn't seat but moved around waiting for her father to get done. He had noticed her but didn't react because the call was rather important.

Lexi realized the call was taking longer so she reached for her purse and brought out her knife and when Banda saw it, he got off the phone immediately quite shocked that she was walking around with a knife.

Banda: Lexi?

Lexi: good, I now have your attention daddy dearest.

She smiled and cut through his table walking towards him.

Banda: so it was you threatening Angela?

Lexi: well,...yeah. But I wasn't there for Angela that's why I didn't slit her throat but I was there for you Daddy dearest...

She laughed out loud and pinned the knife on the table scaring off Banda.

Lexi: so, where do we start from?...
