Back at Oxford, at Rachel's residence, after John had left and left everything in a mess, Rachel and her mother stood in their spot for more than an hour before they stood up and started arranging their stuff, even calling for the person that would repair the broken door and other things that were broken during the fight, they had decided not to move out because they believed that the organization would use Alex to achieve their aims, Rachel was now sure that the organization was not after their life but something in their possession, although she did not know what it was, she still confirmed it from John's actions to Alex, if not he wouldn't t have gone that far to show Alex what he had shown him.Later on, she stood up from the sofa she was sitting on, proceeding to her room ready to check on the mysterious mission given to her by her father, she was going to take it on, but little did she know that she wouldn't be able to take on the mission without Alex.-----In a luxurious villa
"Remember my daughter, if you are to take on this mission, it must be secretive, absolutely known, and known to you only, no third party must be involved, but if you don't feel like taking this mission, just destroy the flash drive and nobody would be in danger until it's discovered, but if you take it, remember that the fate of humanity lies on your hands, and you would always be in latent danger until you've completely resolved everything, but once you fail in resolving it, only death can await you, all the humans would be in danger, I will advise you not to take it on if you know you are not up to it, but I don't want to discourage you, also I don't wanna force you, but I hope you would follow what your heart tells you".Lydia blinked as she remembered her father's words, deep down she wanted to remove the flash drive and crush it, but she steeled her mind and convinced herself that she was brave enough to take on the mission given to her by her father, she didn't want to disappoin
In Cambridge, at Alex's residence, Alex sat on the sofa and looked at his aunt waiting for her to say something, she had been keeping her silence for over twenty minutes now, so the silence was awkward. As Alex was getting impatient, he did not notice that he had reverted from his depressed mood to an anxious one which was what his aunt was waiting for before telling him what he needed to know, before he could break the awkward silence his aunt beat him to it."Let me answer the question that had been lingering on your mind first, the answer is yes and also no".Alex was confused with his aunt's statement, what did she mean by the video was right and also wrong at the same time, where could it possibly go wrong he thought.Aunt Maddy looked at Alex's confused expression, smiling she asked, "do you know the job your parents do or how they became acquainted with the Red devil"."If I remember correctly before my parents died, they usually go on a business trip and leave me with you," A
Warning! Due to some things that the writer experienced while writing this chapter, it may sound boring to some readers, am very sorry for the inconvenience.-----"Alex, by the time you would be listening to this you would have become mature, maybe probably something has happened that led to your aunt's giving you the flash drive, telling you that you have a mission to do, don't blame your aunt for not telling you all this while, I was the one who asked her not to tell you until something of great significance happens, I don't know what it may be, but you have to trust whatever your aunt says at that time, as it's the absolute truth, I hope you would be able to achieve the task have left for you," the voice recording ended, it was as if his father knew he would never be coming back ever again, thinking of this fresh tears flowed down from his eyes, making him somber, but he soon sobered up.Next, he moved the cursor, playing the video, he knew that the remaining three would be detai
The next morning, a ray of sunlight shot into Alex’s eyes, opening his eye while yawning loudly, he used a hand to cover his mouth, while stretching his body at the same time, looking outside through the window, he noticed that the sun had risen from the horizon, jumping out from his bed immediately he noticed the sun, he cursed inwardly on how he had slept so late.Standing up, he went into the bathroom to wash up, after that he went to the parlor, where he met his food on the dining table, while his aunt was busy with her phone, after he greeted her, he rushed to the dining table gobbling up his food in a manner that showed he didn’t eat the previous night, which wasn't true.Aunt Maddy glanced at him from the corner of her eyes before she continued what she was doing, Alex finished gobbling up his food very soon, he exclaimed inwardly at how sweet the food was before standing up, preparing to go to Rachel’s house.“Aunt am off to Rachel’s house, I may not be back for some days,’ he
“What the hell did you just say? The haunted building?” Rachel yelled immediately after Alex finished his statement.”Babe, calm down, nothing’s going to happen,” Alex said in a bid to convince her, he knew that it wouldn’t be easy to make her follow him to the haunted, but he had no choice, that was their only lead to know more about the mission.“What do you mean by I should calm down, haven’t you heard the story of those who went in before being traumatized after they came out,” Rachel shot back.“Relax, nothing is going to happen,” he replied.“And so what, do you know what we are going to face in there? Why are you so confident that going to the building is our only lead?” Rachel shot back at Alex again. Alex was tongue-tied and didn’t know what to say again, “but that’s the only clue we have left,” he replied.Rachel was not to be that easily done out, she knew that Alex was right, but she was having none of it, she didn’t want to go to the lab, not because she was afraid but b
Exploring the building.The lab was as dark as anything, nothing could be seen in there, the two proceeded inside curiously when they entered, they discovered that it was so dark that they could not see their fingers, ”what are we going to do now,” Alex by Rachel’s side whispered slowly into her ear.“How would I know, I can’t see a damm thing,” Rachel replied furiously, she wondered why Alex was asking her such a question when he was the one who suggested they come here in the first place.“Ohhh, I get it now,” Alex muttered, immediately he brought out his phone and switched on the torchlight of the phone brightening up the place a little.“You idiot, why didn’t you think of this earlier,” Rachel by his side snapped at him angrily bringing out her phone and switching on the light.Despite having switched on the light of their phones, they were still unable to see clearly, “let’s go outside,” Rachel suddenly said to Alex."Why should we go outside,” Alex asked."Don’t ask any question
Alex and Rachel watched as Lydia, her father, and his men proceeded into the lab, they could understand what Richard was doing here, but they just couldn’t understand what Lydia was doing here with him, who was she? Was she the daughter of the man? If that was right, then there were things they need to find out because something wasn’t just right, also it seems like she shared a special relationship with the man.“Let’s hide, they shouldn’t meet us here,” Alex whispered to Rachel, taking her hands and entering one of the rooms in the corridor when he saw that they were coming into the lab.-----Rachel, her father, and his men entered the dark lab, but because of the torches held by the men, it wasn’t dark at all.Immediately Lydia got into the lab she looked around in awe, the chemicals, equipment, and all other things she only heard about were here in the lab, being a science student when she was still in high school, she knew much about the laboratory equipment, all the ones she sa
