Chinedu turned around, looking for a particular fellow with the bon-fire the only aid to his sight.

“Where is Ace?” Chinedu growled at his subordinates, who searched themselves. Ace was nowhere to be found, leaving Chinedu vexed. As he was about to pounce on someone, Ace showed up.

Ace, 6Ft 3, was not a guy to trifle with. His muscles rippled with sheer power as his chest , barely contained by the T-shirt on him, was of a wider span than Superman’s own. His face, dark like chocolate, was handsomely crafted with slight cuts on his cheek counting for tribal marks. His real name; Oluwaseyi Taiwo.

“Ace, where were you? Why did you come late to today’s meeting? You know the rules here!” Chinedu bellowed, obviously not pleased that Ace ‘bounced into the area.
“My lord Capone, I am sorry. Chief Ogunlana asked for my presence.”

“So what did you bring from there? Don’t tell me nonsense!” The recently ‘balmmed’ members watched the scene with interest. They knew Ace to be arrogant and controlling, it was cool to see him cower, at least that’s what they taught.
“He gave me information sir, personal information. Shall I speak about it?”

“No, leave that for later. Let’s start our meeting proper.” Chinedu’s face molded to something softer.

Ace started giving information about Chuks and Toke, having replaced Mosquito. He relayed all that has happened between the two, including their big fallout in Fajuyi.
“That’s good. The young man has gained some sense.” Chinedu said. “You see,” he turned around facing the cult, “there is no need to use force at all times. A little touch and he is gone.”

They continued the meeting, giving information on all the available jobs. At the end, Chinedu split the group into three; One group followed Ace to the SUG elections, a second group of two followed Chinedu himself to assassinate the governorship candidate and the third group were left as back-up for both teams. As soon as they were done, Chinedu turned round and shot into the dark bush, stunning a few cult members. He went in there and returned with a huge snake, which the groups that were on a mission cooked and ate. He then dismissed them.
The next day started with a lot of optimism for Tade and co. As he headed to his class, a classmate of his bumped into him.

“Tade, Mr Kunle Falade is calling you.”
As soon as he said that, he took off quickly, like someone was following him.

Tade looked at the dude, obviously surprised at the behavior, but he shrugged his shoulders and moved on. Academic issues can drive someone crazy at times.
As he walked towards the man’s office, he started to think. Why will the man call him at this period? He was the second lecturer to be taking Criminology and the Human mind, one of the most interesting courses in Law. Of course Tade had heard about him from previous students who praise him to the high heavens also speak of how he lights up the course.

The problem Tade had was that he never called the class-representative before it was his turn to teach. He was that methodical that it sort of bothered Tade that he was called.

Obviously, he has a sort of interest in Tade and considering what happened previously in his Part One, Tade was not feel cool about it.
Law Lecturers seem to harbour trouble.
