Tarasha - Season 7 - Episode 35

‘Hey man, we need two speed boats, I want you to give me the fastest ones you’ve got.’

‘Oh! Not again,’ the speedboat sailor fell on his knees as he heard another voice requesting for a speedboat.
‘Come on, get up and answer us quickly.’
He raised his head and saw three people standing before him, a lady and two men. He recognized one of them as a SSS agent who had once come to use a speedboat from his company. The two men had two big backpacks behind them while the lady was holding only a small bag.

Dave knelt down beside him to check the body of the man who was on the floor. ‘The guy has only been put to sleep, he’d be awake soon. Just leave him.’

The sailor stared at Dave’s face for while, considering whether to believe him or not.
‘He just told you the truth,’ the other male agent put in.

The Sailor heaved a sigh. ‘So, what happens if I refuse to give you any of our speedboats this time around?’

‘I’ll make sure you’re arraigned for being accessory to crime,’ Agent Emmanuel replied with a mischievous smile.
The sailor shook his head. ‘Where is your identity card and permit?’ he asked.
The SSS agent brought out cards and showed it to him. The sailor nodded after confirming the veracity

‘I hope there would be no delay in payment or replacement this time around,’ the sailor asked as he began to lead the three to where the boats were.
‘I can’t give you an answer to that, only the government who sent us can answer you.’

The sailor did not speak again.
‘Thank you for agreeing to help Agent Emmanuel,’ Dave said as they proceeded on. ‘Please d not forget any part of the plan and keep listening with the devices for my instruction.’

‘Sure man,’ Agent Emmanuel replied.
Dave turned to Lizzy, he tapped her on the shoulder. ‘So we go on the ship together, you’re ready?’

‘Yes, I am. But I still do not understand what he is going to be doing with the emergency kits at a distance far away from us,’ Lizzy replied.

‘He’s not going to be at a distance far away,’ Dave corrected her notion. ‘He just has to stay at a distance where he would not be seen, this to ensure we escape quick if the need arises.’

On The Ship
Nicholas gave the man a final jab which made the man release his gun and then kicked him to the ground before firing a shot at him. It was too late by the time the other men turned back, Nicholas was already in full control of the gun. Cole decided to sieze the opportunity and grabbed the neck of the man standing behind him with the gun, the man had been distracted by Nicholas.

‘What’s wrong?’ Ayo asked the man who rushed into the cabin leading to Chief Gab’s room.

‘We found another speedboat coming in our direction,’ the man replied.
Ayo stared at his face for a while. Then he stepped back and shifted the curtain to poke his head into the room. He saw Inspector James talking with Chief Elvis.
‘Please inspector, there’s something we need to attend to.’ he said to James.
James turned and stared at him for a moment, he then said something to the Chief before getting up.

‘Inspector, a speedboat is on it’s way here.’ Ayo said to James as the latter stepped out of the room.
‘Is it the same one that came before?”
‘No, a different one…’ sounds of gunshot interrupted his reply.

‘F***! We can’t afford to lose this battle after coming this far,’ James said as he pulled out his gun, he hurried towards the exit.

Cole and Nicholas were able to take down the four men in a minute and they were now left with each other, each pointing his gun to the other’s face.

‘You gotta trust me Cole, I’m sorry for Tomi’s death but I am fully with you. We would have found it more difficult if I did not act like I was with them.’
‘But you watched and did nothing while he killed Tomi,’ Cole argued, still feeling pained about Tomi’s death.

‘I never knew he was going to shoot at her, I would have stopped him somehow.’ Nicholas defended.

‘Why can’t I, why can’t I just believe you?’ Cole said after a silence of about five seconds.

‘You have to believe me, I didn’t know that he was going to react that way. I would not have told him she killed them.’
‘So she didn’t kill them?’ Cole asked with his brows raised.

‘Yes, she didn’t.’ Nicholas replied. Cole narrowed his gaze. ‘I killed them to stop the ship from moving until Samantha joins us here.’

Cole took in a breath.
‘F*** you, you idiot!’
They were surprised to hear James’s voice. He had appeared at the entrance and fired shot at them. They both tried to flee in the opposite direction as they shot back at James. A bullet hit Nicholas in the shoulder but he still managed to escape.
