Tarasha - Season 5 - Episode 71

‘Boss, we are headed towards the waiting room now, we haven’t identified or located anyone, the place is terribly dark.’Cole’s voice sounded in Tarasha’s speaker.
‘Locate the woman immediately you get to the waiting room and make sure she is kept safe,’ Tarasha replied from the other end.

“This is the place,’ Stephanie said impatiently, pointing a finger at the gate of the care center from the other side of the road. Their vehicle still had to make a U-turn to getthe other side.

‘Find a place to park and wait,’ Tarasha ordered the driver who immediately pulled over to the front of a closed company.
Tarasha took off the wig from her head and pulled out a skin mask from her bag. ‘I want you guys to stay in here until I call you or send someone else to call you in, you’d get into trouble if you disobey and move an inch from here.’

She stepped out of the car after passing her warning strongly. Shewalked some distance away from the car, looking towards the care center, she located two cars and based on Cole’s description, she could tell which one was brought by Cole and the one that was brought by Tobi. She walked back into the shadow formed by the fence behind her and quickly put on her face mask. She positioned her revolvers well in her pocket and stepped back onto the road.

She turned the mouthpiece to her mouth as she looked right and left for cars before crossing the road.

‘I just got to the place and I’m coming in now,’ she said to Cole through the mouthpiece.
‘Boss, we’ve located the waiting room and found the woman, the security guards have been distracted because of the power outage but we may have a problem with them if we try to take the woman and she makes noise.’
‘We need to be careful, Rex is powerful in darkness, just stay hidden in a way you can keep watching the woman.’ Tarasha replied.
‘Boss, no one is in sight here for now. Should we make the woman sleep and get her out of place?’
‘Are you sure no one is listening to you right now?’ Tarasha asked, now trying to cross to the other side.
‘No one is, I’m outside the waiting room while the other two guys are inside.’
‘Make her sleep and…’Tarasha paused and her eyes widened in surprise as she saw someone walk out of the gate hurriedly. Her eyes followed him as he looked in direction of the vehicle Tobi was seated in and began to walk towards the place. ‘You can take the woman out, don’t kill but you can put anyone who tries to stop you into unconsciousness.’
She ended the connection and stepped down from the median to cross the road, the vehicles were moving fast and none of the drivers seemed to be patient enough to allow her cross. She watched Rex as he got to Tobi’s car and entered into the Passengers’ side. She focused on the road again and was able to cross after ten seconds.
Her eyes were on Tobi’s vehicle as she got to the front of the care center, she could see the backlight on which meant they were about leaving, she quickly ran to the spot Cole’s car was parked. She broke the window glass to the driver’s side and took out a tool from the pocket inside her jacket, she unlocked the lock mechanism of the door from inside and opened it. She entered into the car and punched in the codes to unlock the start system, then she pushed the start button. The car roared unto life.
‘Cole, connect me with the other guys waiting on the way,I’m following after Rex now,’she said into her mouthpiece.
‘Okay boss,’ Cole replied.

‘Stephanie, don’t you think it’s the right time toinvolve the police?’ Madam Henrietta said to Stephanie who was watching Tarasha through the transparent window glass.
Stephanie did not give any reply. She was more eager to get out of the car than Madam Henrietta was but she decided to trust Samantha Osman. She remembered having disobeyed her instruction the first time they met and she almost got into trouble for it.
‘Stephanie, don’t you think your mum’s life is in danger?’Madam Henrietta asked when she realized Stephanie wasn’t going to give her a response to the first question. She waited for a response and noticed that Stephanie wasn’t still going to reply, she decided to take her own steps independently. ‘I’m getting out of this place,’ she said and moved closer to the door, trying to open using the handle but it couldn’t be opened.

The driver of the vehicle who was still seated in his seat turned back and flashed a warning look at Madam Henrietta. Both Stephanie and Madam Henrietta stared at his face and they knew instantly that stepping out wasn’t an option. They realized that the driver wasn’t just a hired driver from a transport service company, he was working together with Samantha Osman.
Stephanie’s phone began to ring and she reached out to pick it, the caller was Samantha Osman.

‘You can move on,’Rex said to Tobi after pulling on his seatbelt. ‘
Tobi turned in the indicator and looked out for cars coming from behind, there was none. He drove into the road and joined the line of moving vehicles.

‘Have you heard from Stainless?’Rex asked.

Tobi shook his head slowly in response.
Rex stared at his face thinly for a moment, he had noticed the moodiness and knew something was wrong. He hoped it wasn’t that Tobi was the betrayal. His suspicion was increased when Tobi let out a deep sigh like someone who was deeply worried.
He was already thinking of the best way to force out what was troubling the mind of the robust guy when Tobi spoke.
‘Boss, did it go successfully?’Tobi asked in low tones.

‘I couldn’t find the woman in the ward, her bed was empty, I must have been given the wrong information.’Rex replied.
‘No boss, you weren’t given the wrong information.’Tobi said after letting out a gasp.

Rex gave him a sharp look. He raised his brows, ‘What do you mean?’
Tobi sighed again, ‘I…’
Rex’s phone began to ring and he signified for Tobi to stop for him to answer the call. ‘Hello Chief,’ he said into the phone.
‘Rex, I just confirmed from my assistant now. He is sure that the information you got was accurate, he verified it before sending to you.’

‘I missed the woman already, I’ll call you back in few minutes, I have to settle something first.’
‘Please, don’t forget to call me back. It’s important that we take this woman down, she knows some secrets that are too dangerous to be let out.’
‘I’ll call you back Chief, relax.’Rex reassured.
Tobi had increased his driving speed while Rex was making the call. He had seen the vehicle that he was being monitored from trailing them from behind.
After being forced to accept Cole’s deal. The plan they gave him was to lead Rex into a trap already set for him by Tarasha’s team. Out of the seven newly recruited assassins, Cole had taken two with him, one went to Abuja with Tarasha and was the same driver with Stephanie and Madam Henrietta in the Sienna Jeep, the other four had been given specific roles to take Rex down and Tobi’s ultimate job was to drive Rex into their hands. Cole and the two men were supposed to follow Tobi behind after taking Rex while Tarasha was the one who was supposed to do the job of bringing Madam Atinuke to safety, but because of the traffic Tarasha had faced on the route taken, she had to exchange roles with Cole and his team.
‘You said I had the right information,’Rex continued the discussion after ending the call.
Tobi did not reply immediately, he kept his eyes focused on the side mirror.
Rex noticed that the speed was now different, and with the way Tobi was looking, it seemed that they were being trailed.
‘Is someone following us?’Rex asked.
‘Boss, I have a confession to make.’Tobi said, flashing a glance at Rex’s face.
Rex squinted at him. He already knew what he was going to be told. ‘So you sold meout?’ he said in a thick relaxed voice, mentioning the words one after the other.
‘I can explain boss,’ Tobi said in a pleading tone, half focused on his driving and still trying to speak with Rex. Rex continued to stare at him in silence. ‘They have my mother with them and they would kill her if I don’t comply,’Tobi quickly added.
Rex bit his lips in regret. It was one of the dangers of working with untrained or not-properly-trained assassins, they could be easily taken down when someone related to them is taken down.
