" This is a very great season in the police department as a hero for the people has emerged"

" Once again the trust of the people is back to the police as a very great icon have made it known to the people that the police is truly our friend.

" The News of MIA is the talk of everyone in town, everyone talks about the changes he made in the police department"

" he is a hero to the people as the people are no longer living in fear, cause they now believe in the police"

" This young police officer shows he is courageous and his act of bravery is what make even the criminals to be afraid of him"

" For this past few months he has captured lots of criminals, from robbers to ritualist, Rapist and to some other crime even some corrupted police officers".

" this made the rest of the officers to work harder and also encourage them to be the security the people wanted them to be".

" what do you say about Inspector Michael I. Adams aka MIA, the hero of the people" .

There are some robbers that encounter MIA before and it's not a very good experience for them, so they went back to the herbalist to renew their power.

" baba, the charm that you did for us that time has wear off, cause when we went for our last operation four among us were killed by the police, we barely made it out alive" one of the robbers said.

" that's impossible......what I did for you can never wear off........it's supposed to last you for more than ten years" the herbalist said.

" baba I'm telling you it has wear off cause it didn't work oo, see my arm I was even hit by one of the police" the guy said.

" that's impossible.......I'm coming let me make enquiry from the gods" the herbalist said then he started his incantation.

After a while he stopped then Turned to the robbers and they are wondering what makes the herbalist to have a weird expression.

" Baba, what happen?" another one asked.

" I asked the gods what could be the reason you got penetrated by gun" the man said.

" okay....what did they say?" the first guy asked.

" there's a man among the police which make all the spiritual fortifications we did for you and your men to be useless" the man said and the five robbers were confused.

" Old one......we are confuse ooo.... We don't get you" the fourth guy said.

" what don't you get......i said anytime you're around him your powers won't work" the man said.

" I think we know the police officer, the baba is talking about......it's that man they call MIA" the fifth one said.

" baba, so you're saying the man also have his own power that protect him" the first one asked.

" No he has no spiritual power he's like every other human being, but he is not the only one pulling the trigger" the man said.

" baba what do you mean?" the first one asked.

" The spirit of the dead is supporting him, especially the spirit of a twin, if he shoot at anyone, it doesn't matter if that person has thousand spiritual fortifications it will be dormant and inactive" the man said.

" so That means his powerful than you baba......if he shoot you too......you will die" the third one asked.

" I'm not a thief so he and I have no business together" the man said.

" baba so you're saying he can't be killed" the first one said.

" I didn't say that, like I said he's like every other human being..... If you want to kill him go ahead but if he kill you first then you die" the man said.

" If you value your life, Find another job to do or Go to another state to do your job.......and if you insist to stay here and continue ........it's your problem not mine" the baba warned.

" and If you go to another herbalist and they lie to you, I pity you, you will be dead before you know it" the baba said.

" and if any of you die help me greet my forefathers if you happen to meet at the other side......tell them I'm preparing for their annual sacrifice" the man said.

Desmond's POV

Things has been going just as I intended, I have taken control of the police department and all the police are afraid to engage in any unlawful act.

Over the last few months I have reported some police officer involved in injustice and they are either sacked or suspended, or demoted, it depends on the crimes they committed.

I have apprehended some criminals while I killed the others, those I killed are much more than those I took into custody, it also depends on their crime.

If they deserve Grace I will have to arrest them and take them into custody, and if they don't, I show them no mercy and kill them right away.

Even those in custody are badly wounded, my superior don't like the way I killed them or wound them because it's not good but they have nothing to do about it.

Anytime they bring such thing up I have only but one answer to defend myself which is " I shoot back in self defense".

Some people labelled me the merciless police officer, some even said the M in MIA means merciless, everyone is afraid of me even the thugs in the street are afraid of me.

As some people are afraid of me, there are some that love me and the way I operate which make most of them feel free to report anything to me because they know I will put it into action.

Ever since I've been promoted to the rank of Inspector of police, the other highly rank officers have started taking note of me.

As I resumed to the station this morning I received a message that the commissioner of police wants to see me and I wonder why.

I have my own car now so I drove to the commissioner's office and after about an hour later I got there.

The police officers saw me and they let me in, I drove in and found a good spot to park my car.

I came out and asked for some directions and a police officer took me to his office.

I entered and the commissioner seem happy to see me as he smiled widely.

" SIR" I saluted.

" MIA, so good to finally meet you" the commissioner said.

" me too sir " I replied.

" please have your seat" he said and I sat down.

" what will you like to have?" he asked.

" I'm quite okay sir.......thank you sir" I said.

" Oh okay..... I guess I should go straight to the point" he said.

" I'm so impressed with your work here in Clifton City and I'm sure the others are as well" he said then continue.

" Because as I speak to you right now.....I've been ordered to transfer you to another state" he said and I was surprised.

" another state?.....by who?" I asked.

" My superior of course, the DIG, he wants me to transfer you and in two week you should be in Hanford City" he said.

" woww.....i never see that coming" I said.

" actually I do.....cause the news about you is going everywhere, people may not know you physically but they know your name" he said.

" as much as I don't want you to leave because I'm very sure you must've heard about the merciless killer that killed five highly ranked officers including two commissioner" he said and I smiled from within.

" Only if he knew the person is right in front of him" I thought.

" this position was vacant for almost five months because no one wants to assume the position after the death of two commissioner" he said.

" but after I saw you and your work I have confidence that you are the perfect match for that killer just in case he come back which is why I want you to assume the position" he said.

" there's nothing I can do about that....i have my orders and it's a must I follow it, so MIA you're to go over to Hanford city National district to report for duty, they've made every preparation ready for you" he said.

" okay sir......thank you sir" I said.

" you're welcome, don't stop doing what you do best" the commissioner said.

" yes sir" I said then he handed me my transfer letter and I went out.

____________________________________________

I went back to my place and start making preparations, I still got two weeks to clear some things.

A lot of people heard about my transfer some were happy about it while some aren't so happy especially those in the neighborhood.

Since I swore an oath to always obey orders I have no other choice than to go to Hanford.

__________________________________________

(Two weeks Later)

I got to Hanford City and went to Hanford National district to submit my papers.

I was given a new house and I went there immediately, the apartment is a beautiful one already well furnished.

I took my things inside the house and start making arrangements in the house, I looked around the house and I'm impressed with what I saw.

I had a feeling that somebody might be watching me, because a house like this, I don't trust these government, so I brought out my laptop to see if I can find any CCTV around the house.

I found six CCTV cameras all around the house and I smiled to myself, and I made sure I removed them all before I do anything in the house.

I found all the camera though I have hard time searching for it, I used the camera to my own advantage by setting it in the place i want.

I placed an anti-hacking device in my house which made it impossible for anyone to hack into my house and made sure whoever is watching me cannot do that again.

I begin preparation for the house, after setting the CCTV, I stocked my house well with guns because I know since I have enemies they might come after me.

I hid three guns in different part of my bedroom, hid another one in my bathroom, two in the kitchen, two in the parlour, and one outside the house.

I went to the gate side and made a security line with alarm linked to my phone, in case I have an uninvited guests that tries to enter my house.

I hid a very small CCTV camera in my car which sees everything around my car, just incase someone tries to mess with my car.

After settling everything I can now rest and relax.

I received a text message on my phone and I opened it and realised that it's a code GREEN which means all is well just want to check on you.

I pull out my small phone which cannot be tracked or hacked by anyone, I placed a call through to my mother and she picked immediately.

" hello mom" I said.

" how are you my son?" mom asked.

" I'm fine mom.....how is everyone?" I asked.

" we are doing okay......how is work? " mom asked.

" uhg....work is good, I've been trasferred to Hanford City and given a new apartment" I said.

" really......that's very good, I've been seeing you on the news frequently about what you're doing in Clifton City" mom said.

" really.... " I said.

" yeah.....though I'm proud of what you're doing, I'm also scare of the danger you're inviting for yourself " mom said.

" I know mom, which is more reason I had to get away from you in other to protect you" I said.

" yeah I get it.....i just miss you....speaking with you thrice in a year is not very good" mom said.

" I'm sorry about this mom" I said.

" it's okay.....just make sure you're safe" she said.

" I will mom" I said.

" your sisters want to speak with you" mom said.

" oh okay" I replied then I heard Grace voice.

" hello Big bro" Grace said.

" heyy....baby.....how are doing? " I said.

" I'm fine, how is work?" she asked.

" work is good......how about your studies?" I asked.

" Stressful, university is fun but stress is too much" she said and I was surprised.

" you've gained admission to the university?" I asked.

" of course.......infact we are in second semester as we speak" she said.

" really......time is really fast" I said.

" you're the one not calling to check on us" she said.

" I'm sorry baby......you know we've talked about this" I said.

" yeah.......i just miss you...but I don't know if you do" she said.

" of course I do....... I just can't be calling everytime, I don't want to put you in harms way " I said.

" yeah I get it......but I'm proud of you though.....you appear frequently on TV.....you are getting popular " she said.

" yeah I am, how is Vickie? " I asked.

" Here, speak with her" she said then passed the phone to Vickie.

I spoke with her also for some time asking about her work and she replied it's great.

She told me how they miss me in the house and I told her I miss them too, she told me she's in a relationship and it's seem serious.

" if the boy break that precious heart of yours just send me his photo and his address, I will teach him a lesson" I said and she laughed.

" Nah....he's a good guy.....you will like him when you meet him" she said.

" I hope so......i got to go Vickie " I said.

" yeah, okay......please be careful" she said.

" yeah I will....bye" I said then end the call.

Author's POV

An unknown police officer from Clifton City called the DPO in-charge of the station that MIA was posted to.

" Hello, Gbenga" the officer said.

" heyy, Usman.....how far?.....how is things?" the DPO asked.

" that's not the point.....but I just want you to know that the guy is crazy, if you or your men are involve in anything illegal please and please I suggest you stop it" the officer said.

" whaat.....what are you talking about?......and why are you so afraid of him?......an ordinary inspector" the DPO asked.

" an ordinary inspector made you all shut in your pants like that" the DPO said.

" I'm serious about this, that guy is crazy, he his well trained and dangerous.....don't be fooled by his looks" the officer said.

" okay, I've heard you......thanks for the heads-up " the DPO said.

" okay.....i will speak with you later" the officer said then ended the call.

" Seriously, an ordinary inspector would do such to the whole city, well when he gets here we will bend him to our rules" the DPO said.
