The Activist - Season 1 - Episode 3

☆☆☆

Everyone was still enjoying the ‘pleasures’ of Biola when Kareem turned back and saw that Andrew had escaped.

“Haa! Haaa!! Thunder, ni bo ni eran ? Where is my prey? Where is he?” Kareem shouted, diverting everyone’s attention towards Thunder and the cut ropes.

“Matches! Gather those ‘freshers’ around now. We have an animal to catch!”

Cutlasses started flying in the air, as various cult members lifted their weapons and started moving.

“And you!” He pointed to Thunder. “If you like allow her to escape!”

Andrew heard the shout and knew that trouble was coming to meet him at open range, and right now he was not in any shape to take such attack. His adrenaline shot up, forcing him to move a tad faster, despite the huge amount of pain running through his system.

The owl was circling around its prey this night.
]He had hardly made more distance when a snake suddenly fell on him, forcing him to shake it off. That slight movement gave him away.
Soon enough bullets started to rain across the ground, mostly missing their target due to the inexperience of the recruits. Kareem and Matches walked behind them,warning them against hitting each other.

Andrew went on all fours, knowing that if he stood up or dared to raise his head a bit higher, he will be dead.

Kareem soon motioned the boys to stop wasting their bullets and told them to spread. The moon’s light, previously available was been shielded by the clouds, leaving them to the mercy of torch-lights and their untrained eyes.

Andrew crawled his way forward, hoping that the light will not come forth. Alas, it was not to be so!

Andrew, seeing that the moon’s light would not be denied its brightness, quickly crawled to the back of a mango tree and set himself against it.
The moon’s light came out, revealing the glory of a full moon. Kareem was in no mood to admire the moon, and now separated the group into two, Matches taking one set to the other side of the bush while he moved forward.

As they moved closer to Andrew’s location, he being trapped by his posture, they encountered something odd.

One of the recruits shouted in pain, clearly warning others about the presence of danger. Soon enough other shouts were heard and even Kareem had to retreat back. They were in a den of snakes!

The ruckus gave Andrew the encouragement to move forward, making most of the moon light crawling. As his pains were down in notches, his speed increasing, putting more distance between Kareem and him.

]Kareem was in the midst of fighting the snakes off when he saw him. A figure crawling away, his shadow dancing in the approaching rain.

It was about to fall.

Kareem surged through the snake pit, crushing any unfortunate snake with impure energy. Impure energy from the wailing walls of hell. Impure energy from anger. The anger directed towards one person and one person only, Andrew.

Andrew turned back and saw Kareem moving with worrying increasing pace. He also noticed that the brave ones among the recruits had damned the snakes and moved with him.

Andrew understanding the times, then stood up and started running.

The sight of Andrew running got Kareem’s blood boiling beyond evaporation level. He thought of running after him, but then stopped moving and instructed his men to open fire.
So once again, bullets started to rain across the ground, even as Andrew was nearing the Faculty of Health Sciences.
