Diya didn’t know what direction she was headed, all she knew was that, she had to put an end to the madness in her life. Stepping into the hallway, she walked through with out making any move to hide. She could sense them. There were quite a number of people in the lab.
“Her business wasn’t with them”…. She thought to herself.
All she wanted was Dr Bayo. Just then, one of the doctors laughing, stepped out of a room and on seeing her, he screamed which drew the attention of everyone around.
“ You shouldn’t have done that”….. She said before she hit him hard with the butt of the gun which put him out in an instant.
An alarm was already set off by one of the terrified doctors in the lab, alerting security.
The alarm alerted Dr Bayo, causing him to look at the CCTV footage he had in his office. His first move was to check on TYPE-C. On seeing the lifeless bodies and no sign of her, he began to frantically pack up files he felt were vital. He knew she was coming for him.
“How could he have been so gullible? He shouldn’t have asked them to take off the restraint”….. He queried himself as he continued to pack up and shred files.
About twelve armed men trooped to the hallway to stop her. Diya stood still in the lab which not only was scattered but also, had about six doctors lying unconscious. She could sense them, their heartbeats, their breathing pattern, she knew where each stood outside the door. Without looking, she stepped out shooting the first four who were closest to the door. Her accuracy and speed was no match for the other eight as she soon had them all lying dead in a pool of blood. She carefully stepped away from the bodies and headed for the last room which all instincts told her was were she would find Dr Bayo.
Dr Bayo with hands full of unarranged files was just about leaving the room when he caught her figure standing at the door. The transfixed Dr, unconsciously let the files he clung to fall to the ground.
“Going somewhere Doc?”…..Diya asked
Still too terrified to speak he just stared at her.
“You know for a man who was just playing god some minutes ago, you look so scared. Isn’t that ironic?”…. Diya said as she walked slowly into the room.
“Don’t do this Diya I beg you”….. He said finally finding his voice.
“Oh! He speaks and he even knows my name! I thought I was just TYPE-C to you?”
“We,…. I mean me and you!”…. he said pointing at her, “we could be famous, this thing we have going on here its one of a kind Diya I tell you”.
“You call this madness, this act of wickedness and brutality going on here! Something spectacular? You ruined my life! What about the others you recruited through the scam job offer? What happened to them? Tell me!” she screamed.
“Ummm…. Uummm”…. He stuttered
“Talk!”
“They weren’t as successful as you were, they died”. He said in a hushed tone.
“Who gave you the idea that you could play with innocent lives?, who told you, you could play GOD? Your likes do not deserve to live”…Diya said now visibly portraying her anger.
“Please don’t kill me!”…. he begged. I can give you names. Names of my sponsors, people who funded this project. They’re top government officials. Don’t you want them punished too?”.
“Just shut up!”…. Diya said as she pulled out the syringe and the bottled fluid she had earlier taken.
Emptying the content of the bottle into the syringe, she moved closer to him.
“Don’t kill me and I’ll tell you everything please!”
Without any pity, she dug the syringe into him and emptied the fluid into his bloodstream causing him to fall to the ground in a shock state.
“You see doc, I remember what this fluid actually did to me back then. It always rendered me immobile yet conscious to my surrounding. Now we’ll see how you’ll react to it while I set this place on fire”.
Dr Bayo lying immobile on the ground, widened his eyes in fear at the realization of what she was about to do.
She walked out of the room and headed towards the lab she had earlier come from. Finding a cylinder of methane, she dragged it out taking it back to the room where she left him. She opened the gas pump, and allowed the gas saturate the air. Walking towards him, she took out the lighter he had in his pocket.
“Good thing that you’re a smoker”… she said in a sarcastic tone.
Walking towards the exit, she turned back and had one last look at the facility that had turned her world into chaos. She closed the door behind her and with no pity left in her, she lit the lighter and threw it while she made a run for it.
She ran out knowing her life would never remain the same, but she was however willing to try. All Diya wanted now was to go home to her mum. Back to where a little sanity still existed.
Picking up his phone, he scrolled through his contact and dialed a number.
“hello General it’s Dr Tunde Shekini, Bayo’s assistant”
“Yes!”….he answered impatiently.
“I have it with me. Everything about the project, complete and fully tested”
Long silence…..
“If what you say is true, meet me at my office first thing Monday morning”……the General said before cutting the call
“Let’s play!”….. Tunde said as he began to laugh hysterically.

EPILOGUE
Tunde Shekini stared at his television screen smiling. The national news had just reported of a fire outbreak at medical lab in SABON GWAZURU KOTOROKOSHI GUSAU which claimed the life of everyone in the premises. The fire outbreak was said to have been triggered by faulty electrical wirings.Picking up his phone, he scrolled through his contact and dialed a number.
“hello General it’s Dr Tunde Shekini, Bayo’s assistant”
“Yes!”….he answered impatiently.
“I have it with me. Everything about the project, complete and fully tested”
Long silence…..

Amazing! Pretty interesting stuff which kept me glued to my device from start to finish of the read. This is the class of content we ought to be seeing in Nollywood and not everytime, "Otumorkpor" or "Babalawo". Bravo!
Oh my! Tunde is the badass guy after all. Diya of course is my fave, she is strongwilled. Nice series dear, more grease to your elbow.
