The Guardians - Season 1 - Episode 46

Izu could hear the whole thing happen but he could not believe it. The helicopter explosion had shaken him but him kneeling down with his rifle pointed at people who outnumber his team by almost three to one was not something he had envisaged. The major had said he was from the Nigerian special forces and his accent proved him right and even the team leader had no doubt about it. The Major turned started to walk backwards towards his team and he said; “My mission is simple madam president; you must not return home alive and there should not be any witness so I guess that explains the blowing up of your helicopter and this little ambush” “Steady” Michael said as he expected some miracle to happen or else he would be done for The Major put his right hand in his and brought out a small phone.

He dialed and spoke into the receiver; “We have them right here sir should we go ahead with it?” He paused for some seconds as Shade whispered to Michael; “What exactly are we waiting for sir?” “Something I saw in the distance and should be here any time now” “That sign better come soon because the moment this arsehole gets off the phone, we are done for” IBK who had listened to their conversation but silently said; “Whatever the sign is, I hope it is that red spot on this Major guy’s chest” Shade said; “What red spot?” “Why don’t you look towards where is heart is supposed to be” Shade looked and saw a faint red glow on the Major’s chest as he spoke on the phone with someone and Shade said; “Michael, do we know anything about that light?” Michael who for the first time that night was surprised said; “I have nothing to do with that and that is not the miracle I was hoping for” He continued; “IBK, how much of a shot are you?” “I am pretty good what are you hoping for?” “This might sound suicidal but if we don’t do this now, we might all end up dead so what I want us to do is simple, when I give the signal, Shade and Izu make for those huge glass doors behind us and take the president with you. We will hold them off right here.” “That’s suicide. You will be killed immediately we make for those doors and have you even thought the doors might be locked?” Izu said “The doors might be locked but they are not bulletproof so I expect you to get inside by all means. You should get through and let’s hope whoever has that red light is a friendly to us. IBK, at my signal, take out those lights. We have a better chance of survival in the dark. You take the one on the left and I will aim at the one on the right.” He paused a bit and said; “Is everyone ready?” Shade said; “How come we did not factor in the aide?” Michael said almost absent mindedly; “We already have our subject and if she can follow you fast enough, good for her, if not, she is on her own”
