Tarasha - Season 7 - Episode 9

‘Any clue on Samantha’s movement yet?’ Carl said into the phone. He was still sitting in the same place he was an hour ago. Eric had followed Henry with some other men to the location Cole had sent.
‘No, the d--n guy is sitting in the car with the f***** man who acted as Patricia’s Father and he claims that Samantha left more than an hour ago with rest of the team.’
‘If that’s the case, then we don’t have to waste any time, we’d begin the search here right away,’ Carl said.
‘I think you should find a way to check their records and locate the exact place where the Vice President could be,’ Eric suggested. ‘Yeah, I’m getting it started right away.’

‘Oga Henry, I don’t know where she is. She asked me to wait here till they get back,’ Mr Matthew replied Henry for the umpteenth time.
‘Okay, I’m sorry for troubling you but why didn’t she drop a message for me? Cole should have told her I was coming.’
‘Yes, Cole told her and she said she’d call when you get here, you should be patient.’
‘No, I got to go. I’ll track and join them where they are.’ Henry said and thereafter he opened the door.
Mr Matthew watched him walk away until he went out of sight.
‘Has he left already?’ he was taken aback as he heard Tarasha’s voice in his earpiece. He had almost forgotten that he had the earpiece plugged in his ear and that he was supposed to expect a message from her.
‘Yes boss, he said he’s going to track and join you there ‘ he answered with stammering lips.
‘Okay, did he touch you?’
‘No.’
‘Okay, get out of that car and come over to Solace hotel, when you get to the street, you wait for instructions from Cole.’
‘Boss, can’t I drive the car there?’
‘No, don’t.’ she replied. ‘A tracker could have been placed on it.’
‘Oh! Okay,’ he replied and began to take off his seatbelt immediately.
‘I’m cutting off connection with you and you wouldn’t be hearing from me for now, wait for further instructions from Cole.’

‘Hey boss, you there?’ Tarasha heard Cole say as she switched the connection to the left ear piece to him. It was previously connected to Mr Matthew while the one at the right ear was and remained connected to Tomi.
‘Yeah Cole, I’m with you.’ she replied.
‘I just located Elvis Richards with his son James, they are at the VIP section on thirty first floor and seem to be rushing somewhere. I think they know we’re around.’


‘Tomi, are you with us?’ Tarasha asked. She was expecting Tomi to give her direction on the quickest way to get to the VIP section.
‘Yes boss, searching already.’ Tomi replied. The three of them were all connected and could hear and talk to each other’s be
‘Have they answered the call yet?’ Elvis Richards asked James who just walked into the room as he handed his bag to Ayo
‘No, but I’ve sent someone to the control room.’ James replied. ‘Are you ready to go now?’
‘Yes, I have all my documents here.’ Elvis Richards replied, pointing his finger at the bag with Ayo.

‘Okay, let’s go right away.’
James ushered his father out and he followed immediately. Ayo followed behind them.
Immediately they stepped out of the room, James got a call on his phone.
‘Hey, what’s up?’
‘Sir, I couldn’t gain access into the control room. My access card is not working, I don’t know if it’s the card or the card reader.’ the voice at the other end said.
‘What the hell is that?’ James cursed. ‘Do everything you can to get in touch with someone in their right now, tell them to open access to the secret underground escape, we’re on our way there already.’
‘But sir…’
‘Get it fine, f*** you!’
James hurried on. ‘Dad please put on your face cap,’ he said as he walked past the man.
The man responded and stopped to collect his face cap from the bag he gave to Ayo, he put his on and then hurried to join his son who was in front of the elevator.
‘What’s happening?’ Elvis Richards asked, wondering why James way only standing there.
‘The Elevator isn’t working,’ James replied.
Elvis Richards looked up around, ‘Why? B there’s power supply.’
‘It’s not power issues, I think someone turned off the elevators from the control room.’ James replied.
‘What the hell is that?’ Elvis Richards widened his eyes.
‘Let’s go take the stairs,’ James said and led the way as he brought out his phone. He dialed Rex’s number and the call was answered almost immediately. ‘Hey Rex, I think Samantha has gained access into the control room. We can’t use the elevators and the access to the control room is locked from outside.’
__


‘F*** it!’ Rex cursed with the phone still close to his ear. He had underrated Samantha once again. She must have entered hours before he discovered her, he thought. Or how else would she have been able to locate where the control room, gain access into it and block everyone else within the short period he thought?
‘Where are you now?’
‘Still on the thirty first floor,’ James replied.
Rex had discovered she was in the building around six pm, but for her to have gained so much access to facilities meant she had been there by around three o’clock and he did not know. He was baffled and it was a mysterg to him. Even though he expected her to discover the location later, he didn’t expect her to discover it as quick as that. There was nothing he could point to as the reason, nobody had known of his plan to use Solace Hotel which was Elvis Richards property, even Elvis Richards himself was only told at the last minute. How the information leaked so quick to her was unexpected.
Then he suddenly remembered the hostages, he remembered having told the NIS man to take the hostages straight to Solace Hotel, only that they were kept in sacs in the bus for some hours until he ordered that they be taken in to the room where they were presently. Could she have tracked them there quickly because of the hostages? He asked himself. But he remembered commanding the NIS men to make sure that they were checked and all electronic devices were taken off from their bodies before been taken out if Samantha Osman’s base. He himself when he had gone to set up the explosive device in the room where they were confirmed by searching their bodies that there were no electronic devices or chips on them.
He suddenly remembered something again, he had seen a handcuff on one of the hostages hands. Due to his rush to set up the explosive, get out of the room, treat himself and prepare for Samantha, he had been too careless not to check what kind of handcuff it was or bother to ask if the hostage was cuffed by his men or from Samantha’s base.
He tightened his fists in anger, he was sure now that the handcuff was what led Samantha to Solace Hotel so quick.
He picked up his backpack and fastened it to his body. Samantha now had the advantage of her access to the control room, but he was certain that she wouldn’t use it fully because she had no knowledge of the facilities in the building. He also was certain of one advantage, darkness. It was night time and darkness was one of the greatest tools of every Vilary clan assassin.
‘Hey Rex, are you still there?’ James voice sounded, reminding Rex the call was still on.
‘Yeah, James. Wait there for me, I’ll join you in a minute.’ Rex replied. He was on the floor above and was sure he was closer to Elvis Richards than Samantha.
His plan was to get Elvis Richards out of the place first successfully. Then Samantha would come look for him and thereby receive her death. He had his thoughts well arranged, he knew she would be interested in saving Madam Henrietta and Chief Gab and she would go there first. She would make the mistake of shooting a gun or one of his men would make that mistake and that would be the end of Chief Gab and madam Henrietta and possibly Samantha Osman if she was close to the two hostages when the bomb goes off. The other option if she was there at the explosion was for her to get badly injured and physically weak. Rex was however sure that when she left there, she would have grown weak either emotionally or physically, or both ways.
