Chapter 2 Begining of Justice

TITLE: BEGINNING OF JUSTICE

"Good morning dad." Ariana said, walking into the kitchen as the maids scurried round to place the dining table in order. "Have you seen the news? I'm all over."

"Yeah, that's how it should be, you're making me proud."

"This is just the beginning dad, all our worries will be slowly forgotten and we will be happy." She replied, kissing his cheek.

"Ma'am, you have a call."

"Oh thanks Marie, I'll take this call dad."

As she walked away, Mr Thompson's phone rang. "Yeah why are you calling so early in the morning? I'm__ what?" He screamed and stood on his feet, losing his balance as he fell to the ground.

*************

"Oh really? He's really desperate huh, tell him I'll be there." She said, smiling and biting her lip. Just then,Marie rushed out.

"Your father lost consciousness."

"What?" She followed Marie swiftly into the house as she screamed. Soon three guards rushed in, lifting Mr Green as they rushed into the car and drove off to the hospital.

"Dad, dad, wake up. Not now, do not die on me."

"He's a survivor,he won't die." Josh her father's right hand man said, hugging her.

"He was fine, there was nothing wrong with him, he was perfectly okay when i left to take the call so what happened?"

"Check his phone,the nurse checked his blood pressure last night and it was good."

"So what happened?" She took the phone from Josh as her eyes went saucer round.

"He received a call from the cruise ship but why?"

"You won't find out if you do not ask." Josh replied, taking the phone from her.

"I'll call and get back to you, follow them in." Mr Thompson was placed on a stretcher and wheeled in with Ariana following behind and tears rolling down her cheeks.

"Doctor what's wrong?"

"Can you come with me to my office?" He asked and she nodded, walking with him to his office.

"Did he get any troubling news or__"

"He got a call from one of our cruise ship and we found him in this state after that." The doctor shook his head.

"He had a heart failure and if this continues,he'd have to go for an operation." She gasped, palming her mouth.

"Please do everything you can to curb this heart failure, I'll try my best to take good care of him, i will.

"That's good Miss Thompson,if you'd excuse me i have a patient to attend to." She followed him out and met Josh at the hallway sitting.

"What was the call about?"

"One of the cruise ship is missing,the cargo ship is missing too, people's goods are inside." She gasped, almost losing her balance as she held the wall for support.

"When did this happen? How?" She screamed, holding his shirt.

"You're responsible for the cargo and cruise ship so what happened? Tell me?" She screamed again.

"Can you please stop the noise, we have patients around." A passing nurse said, walking away.

"I just got into town this morning, i wasn't around if you can remember." He said calmly as she sighed and swallowed hard.

"Who did this?"

"Probably angry and jealous people who got angry because of your success and achievement from last night."

"Find leads, make sure you find a way to know who did this, they must pay."

"Morning boss." Miranda greeted, walking into the house with another version of herself walking in. Brandon raised his head, looking skeptically at both women.

"Morning Miranda and__"

"Macy, Macy Amber." The lady said, stretching her hand to shake Brandon.

"I'm sorry boss, she'll just be here for a few days and she'll leave, she's on holidays and__"

"It's alright Miranda trust you." He said, turning back to face his laptop as both ladies walked into the house.

"What happened?" He said into the phone,a small smile playing on his lips because he knew what was going to be said.

" She's devastated,he's in the hospital. He collapsed after getting the news."

"Good. I'll let you know what to do next." He smiled, dialing Ariana's number.

"Hey."

"Hi, can we talk later?" She asked.

"No, what's wrong? You don't sound okay." He said into the phone, standing on his feet.

"My father lost consciousness this morning we're at the hospital."

"What! I'll be right there, just stay calm."

"Are you heading somewhere?" Miranda asked, strapping her knife to her boot.

"Yeah and you're not__"

"I'm coming along, I have every right to be there." She whispered as their eyes locked.

"Fine but don't do anything stupid." He warned.

"You can count on that."

"Are you going out? Can i come along?" Macy asked, walking down the stairs as Miranda walked over to meet her.

"You can't, now go up there and plant your butt on the chair,read something."

"Why are you acting like__"

"Do not test my patience Macy back up." Macy turned on her heels, shaking her head as she walked back up the stairs.

"She's not a baby you know."

"And she's my little sister." Miranda replied as they marched out of the house.

"Why then are you treating her like a baby? I mean she's__"

"Can we not talk about Macy? She's just passing the time here she'll be out in no time and you'll forget you ever met her."

"All the more I'm curious, Is there something i don't know?" He asked.

" Of course not, you're the last person i keep secrets from, we're in this together, remember?"

"Yeah i know."

"You caused his heart failure." She said, smiling.

"Just like my mother died after thinking i lost my life in the prison in the fire accident, just like that, he'll lose his health slowly and die finally.

"I cannot wait to see the anguish on their faces when the truth finally comes to light.

"They'll pay for their sins before i finally reveal who i am trust me it won't be a nice day."
