Chapter 6 SIX

"Move! Move!...get out of the way!" Alarming voices and sirens were heard from a far, I'd lost my conscience. All I could see is darkness all around me as lights of fire in hell welcomed me to that other world.

****

A Day Later.

"How is our patient doctor?" A low soft voice said as it appeared to be far abit from me. My eyes were still closed, and I hardly could see. I could only hear voices moving around.

"He is doing well, and you can take him home as soon as conditions allow. Not more than two hours from now!" Another lady replied to the first voice. Weirdly, I tried my luck, to open my eyes as they'd remained close for almost twelve hours now and out of my conscience as well.

Lucky enough, I was able to open my eyes and could clearly see that I was in a hospital bed again. My neck ached in pain as I tried to raise my left hand and feel the swollen wound on my lower side of the neck.

"Oh, thank God that they were capable of saving you from this? Why would you do that, honey?" A lady young to my age stood by my bed as she asked in fear. She stretched her arms to reach me as well. Felt my wound and was ambushed with sorrow and mercies that I could be able to see them through her pale eyes.

She surrendered to fear as tears of sorrow started overflowing on her chicks, I thereafter felt her pain and my eyes were able to identify that she was no more of a strange to me.

"Alexa? Of all the people? What exactly are you doing in my room? I mean, who invited you here?" I asked as I tried to recollect my lost energy to face her. "You remember how you said to me that you'd rather stay alone in this world than being along to a murderer?" I asked in a high, sharp voice that raised alarm. The two officers who stood at the door opened it at an angle and checked inside! My eyes came to contact with one of them and quickly my minds remembered everything that happened as to why I was here.

***

As the main lights were switched off as part of daily routine in Kiganjo jail. I was all alone in my cell and no one could come and check in. As it was part of their big plans to punish me from what they all agreed that it was murder case. Not only murder but killing innocent souls {kids}. Therefore, they all agreed to give me extra punishment and also to eliminate me from the rest of the mates.

It was until that moment when the lights were switched off, did the two men I saw early on the food queue, appearing to my cell. The idea of committing suicide disappeared from my heard quickly as I stood in fear. My legs were trembling with sweat moving all along my body.

Their pale eyes appeared to be bright in the dim lights of the moon that penetrated the tiny holes of the old sheets on my cell rooftop. They giggled in anger as they awkwardly shook their bodies in power. Their skin turned red due to their overwhelmed anger. I did hold up my breath for some moments as I allowed my minds to relax as well as watch them approach. Suddenly, they were at my cell door, and slowly they opened it.

I never wondered how they did, for only the officers had the access keys to the mate cells. Just because I already knew that this was part of their plan, they wanted to see me dead. They turned to be my creator as they wanted to take away my soul and spirit as well. I stood in fear as I saw them approach while exchanging smiles in the dim lights. They never said a word to each other, neither murmured.

"Dear Lord, my time has come! Please accept my soul and spirit if so!" I calmly said inside my minds as I quickly resembled them to come back, for they'd left in fear. I folded the scarf once again for I never wanted them to notice that I was holding something in my hand, then I crouched slowly bending as I seated on the side of my bed. None of the other mates were aware, neither awake to notice what was going on or whatsoever.

I slowly held my breath as I searched on the side of my bed, watching. Fear was gone, and suddenly, I was filled with courage, I was ready to face the two arrogant and presumptuous men standing up for me.

"I told you It's not yet over, boy!" One of them said rushing voice. I couldn't speak a word as I was keen, watching them approach. And they were a meter from me, anger arose to me, and I was overwhelmed with power....

Darkness was all over me, as well as blood that flooded my jumpsuit to justify what happened.

***

I never thought that I would possibly possess such powers as I was just a teen trying to battle my fate and no one to come into my rescue. I hardly thought of successful in my life as all this mess happened to my life. I was bailed a term of seventeen years, not only then, I had no freedom at all. But something was always running in my minds, that the only people that could save my life from jail were Alexa and Vivian. They were the only one who held my key out of that second hell.

Although I always thought of that, I more so never forget on the unfortunate part where they were the only two that brought me to all this. None of them believed me to whatsoever. My minds were overburdened as I could always think of Alexa. Who betrayed me just before every eye that appeared in court on that day of judgement. Not less did Vivian did as she never trusted to give me another chance neither even a single one to prove my innocence. All she believed was that she saw her child dead.
