CHAPTER 9

  "What Man?" Ife probes.
  "One man like that, he wore black,, ehhnnn.. he kill the man.. yes.. he killed him.. i swear it wasn't me, officer please don't arrest me". Seyi pleaded.
     " where were you?". ife intensifies
      "i was in the bush shitting, i swear,he didn't see me"
*the gig is up*, *am i in trouble?*
  " You say you saw a man?" Tolu asks as he and ife exchange glances. *finally a clue*, Tolu crouches in front of seyi, placing a hand on his shoulder, "Thank you, but we'll need you to come with us, i promise you'll return safe and sound, we just want to get your statement. You'll be hugely rewarded for your cooperation".
While all these went on, Ife's phone in the car beeps to life at the receiving of a notification, his screen displayed:

          @Anonymous Just Tweeted!
********************************
Tolu is dazed as he struggles to get on his feet. it had escalated so quickly, what on earth just happened?, he alongside ife and seyi where driving straight to the station when all hell broke lose, things had imploded so quickly. He places a hand at the side of his head and draws out blood. Blood?, what happened?. He is stunned at the sight of Ife's patrol vehicle tilted awkwardly with hoes around it indicating a shoot out. It hits him as flashes of what happened came and went out of his head giving him a wave of migrane.
An outcry. Screeching of tires. Gunshots. Blank!. He hears Ife's cry of pain as he jolts back to life, he wobbles and fumbles towards the direction of the sound and sees ife clutch his left shoulder. He had been shot, Tolu drags himself towards him.
"ife what happened?"
Ife is still wincing in pain as blood spills from his shoulder, he ignores tolus remarks and says "Forget about me guy, I'll be fine", he begins to point at a distance, " Look for Seyi, he's our only lead".
Tolu's head begins to work out what he had just heard, Like a computer his brain processed the name over and over again, Tolu could feel another wave of migrane as he tries to decipher the name.. Seyi?, Who's Seyi?, Seyi? Seyii??,.. Oh My God.. Seyi!. instinctively, he goes the direction ife had pointed, "Seyi?" he could only mumble, he kept mumbling the name about as he went then he saw him.
he saw Seyi.
**********************************
Dakar wakes up with Nojat still fast asleep beside him, she still had her hands wrapped around me tightly, he had to struggle to wiggle free. It wasn't the first time he had woken up beside a woman. He sits up and positions himself beside the bed, his back had few blights from Nojats fingers holding on fast unto his skin as he dug into her. He then remembers it. A particular memory of yesterday he had lost into the night has he  buried himself into nojat. A memory he hoped he would forget for life.
*What have i done?*, The Sponsor would not be happy, i was instructed not to harm him, atleast for now!. But he had to do what he did. Someone saw him!.
**********************************
Dakar drops his call with nojat, he had a date that night. 7PM. He prided himself in getting her rather quickly.
He had just spent hours monitoring the two men and was bored. he left his room to get something to eat before returning.
Upon returning, he gatches a glimpse of Ife going into his car and displaying his gun.
"what do we have here?" he said as he hurriedly sits, positions the laptop for optimum view and increased the Audio.
He was dumbstruck at what he heard:
    "One man like that, he wore black,, ehhnnn.. he kill the man.. yes.. he killed him.. i swear it wasn't me, officer please don't arrest me".

What!!, impossible!!, but as hard as he tried, he knew the  fidgeting young man on his knees saw him. He had indeed wore black. *how didn't i notice him?*
         "i was in the bush shitting, i swear,he didn't see me"

so that's why?, i was careless. Dakar stands up , pacing around the room.
in a flash he hurriedly wears his attire, loaded his gun, he quickly glances at the time. I've still got time. he picked up his device, the nano-camera on IFE's hair had a GPS system, so he would only do the trailing.
*********************************
  Ife and Tolu smiled at themselves, mission accomplished. All they needed was Seyis precise description of the killer and their job was almost close to done. Tolu looked through the windscreen seeing a distraught seyi.
*poor kid*, he went to answer the call of nature at the wrong place and at the wrong time. He couldn't imagine the trauma he would be in, being the only witness to a murder case of such proportion.
"it's okay seyi, i promise you'll be fine" He assured.
  "ah, oga officer, shey you sure''. Seyi asked.
  " I'm sure ".
They had been too into discussions, they hadn't notice the black sedan trailing them, silently overtaking other vehicles ahead of it.
  " Ife, come look at this" Tolu called out already noticing the abnormality
"what is it"
" this car's been trailing us for quite a while "
"you sure?" ife asked before also taking a look. To be certain, Ife accelerated the vehicle, the car also following suit. Taking a left bend, the car also did same and it got dawned on them. They were being Followed.
They begin to accelerate now as it becomes a mad car chase. Dakar doesn't hesitate to open fire on the vehicle.
"Get down" Tolu screams as he crouches his head and Sey follows it.
seyi is losing his mind now.
*they've caught me*, *he's coming for me*. More shots ensues as Ife manages to keep the car whole as he swerves left and right, tossing his passengers with him.
  "hold on " ife screams.
   " to what" Tolu screams back. They could barely hear each other now as the deafening sounds of the bullets shatters their vehicle causing the glass to shatter.
  "Where's the gun?". Tolu screams at Ife.
    " What?" Ife didn't hear him audibly, his eyes where on the road maneuvered cars, bikes.
     "Where's the fucking gun?"

***********************************
  Dakar was slowly catching up with them, he was already causing a mess and his vehicle was bashed as he kept hitting other vehicles out of the way.
on one hand, he held the steering as he made sharp swerves, accelerating dangerously at his target. on his other hand he clutched his gun, firing sporadically at the police van ahead of him. His phone starts to ring as he quickly glances at the caller id. Nojat.
*I've got to end this quickly*.
he opens a locker and brings out his sniper and is about to open fire when someone from the police vehicle starts to shoot back at him. *damn it* he curses, as it's his turn to crouch and avoid the bullets.
******************************
Tolu keeps shooting at the car as ife struggles to keep The car on the road. he looks towards seyi to see him already in tears and felt a pang of guilt come over him as he had promised to keep him safe.
"ife, common" he urges.
more bullets begins to rain down the vehicle as tolu crouches down to avoid them. soon they hear a puff sound..
"what's that" tolu asks
"one of the tires just got hit".
he had barely finished the statement when they hear another puff sound. Another tire. The vehicle refuses to obey the instructions ife put into the steering as it start vying all over the road.
They hadn't noticed when the vehicle had come besides them, bumping them by the side, the gun slips from tolus hands and fell to the floor and just as he's about to scramble to get it as it misbehaved on the floor, he hears a sharp cry out of pain. Ife had been hit.
Clutching his shoulder ife had taken eyes of the roads and hands off the steering wheel as he winced in pain.
  ********************************
*This is my chance* dakar said to himself as he sees the driver is hurt, he holds onto the brakes just so he could reduce his speed and then target the fuel tank. One Shot. Boom!.
Soon the police van is partly engulfed in flames as he watches the vehicle skid off the road making several 360° degree rounds before summersaulting and twirling mid-air and crashing onto the ground with a large thud.
He walked into the capsized car, opening it and finding no one in it.
*Where's he*, he hears a groan and follows it, on his way he sees Tolu knocked out with blood spilling from the side of his head, eyes shut.
*i hope you aren't dead*. he thinks to himself. he hears the groan again before slowly moving further to see a badly wounded Seyi, crawling his way to safety, his shirt already soaked with blood,he hears the footsteps behind him, turning around he sees him. The Killer. The Man responsible for his nighgmares, he felt a shiver in his spine, he stretches his hands towards him, tears flowing down his eyes, his whole body as he winces in pain:
  "Please, don't kill me".
********************************
Tolu falls his knees, tears in his eyes, He feels a vibration in his pocket. His Phone, picking it, he hears Tanko Mohammed say Hastily, " Agent Tolu, we need you now, we just learnt there's a Witness, but he's in trouble, his life is in Danger... Where are you?.... Hello... Agent Tolu can you hear me?.... Hello... i just said there's a witness...  But his life is_"
Tolu cut the call before the DSS head could continue. The Witness was infront of him alright,But His Neck had been broken and his head tilted 120°........
*********************************
Dakar is brought to reality, Nojat still fast asleep, all cuddled up in the blanket. His phone rings. The Sponsor.
He picks it up and hears the sponsor speak with irritation in his voice:
  " Dakar" he fumed, "What Have You Done?"
