THE WATCHMAN

Antonio is dead

"I'm going to kill Julio when I see him!" I'm going to tear him to pieces Sergio angel said in Anger

"And how exactly are you going to do that?" Time Gyang asked 'We are blindfolded and our hands are tied to the back of these chairs, we have absolutely no idea where we are in the house, so what are your plans? I suggest you give up this confident attitude and hope that's something goes right for us if not we are dead already!"

They were already three days in captivity since they found out about Julio's betrayal and anxiety was on the increase.

Sergio angel knew that Tina was right. there was nothing they could do. Their cell was heavily guarded and the guards were given the order to shoot and kill should they make any move to escape.

Ironically their lives now lay in the hands of the one man they sought to capture Antonio de Castillo.

while they were still talking they began to hear the sound of a helicopter approaching the building the helicopter landed on the helipad on top of the building.

"I guess that will be Julio," Tina Gyang said. "Probably!" Sergio Angel replied "and he probably wouldn't return if he hasn't completed his mission. I guess we are doomed then!" he said Tina Gyang let out a sigh of frustration.

Julio stepped down from the helicopter with the look of victory. He had a beaming smile on his face as he walked down the stair towards Lord Murillo's Chambers.

Held tightly in his right hand was a black large Briefcase which seemed to be carrying something very important.

He was ushered to have a seat while he waited for the lord and Duchess Murillo.

When the news of Julio's arrival got to Lord Murillo, he instructed that all the prisoners be equally brought up to his Chambers. Sergio Angel Tina Gyang and Susan Boyle were brought up to the Chambers.

On their entry into the Chambers, Julio became uneasy at the sight of Sergio angel and Tina gyang, as they knew he had betrayed them he did everything possible to avoid eye contact with them.

Everyone's eyes drifted towards the briefcase that was placed beside Julios leg. Sergio Angel and Tina Gyang shoulders fell in disappointment as they already knew what the contents of the briefcase were.

Susan Boyle was trembling all over as she could see blood dripping from the Briefcase she could not bear to imagine what was in that Briefcase.

A few moments later lord and Duchess Murillo walked into the Chambers, everyone got up and stood at attention as lord and Duchess Mourinho went to sit on their chairs behind the table.

Lord Murillo motioned to Julio, and he picked up the Briefcase by his side and walked up to Lord and Duchess Murillo, he placed the Briefcase in front of Lord Murillo with the opening side facing Lord Murillo.

He placed it in a manner in which only Lord Murillo and Duchess Murillo will see the contents of the Briefcase but every other person could see virtually nothing.

Finally, Julio opened the Briefcase, thereby Revealing the contents of the Briefcase to Lord and Duchess.

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

Over in Nigeria the Oraha had resurfaced and was planning his next move. The structures of the Watchmen and Timekeepers had fallen and he needed to devise the way forward. His friends were in captivity and if it were to be revealed that he had aided them, he would be sought out and murdered.

He decided to return to Spain to see an old friend who was once part of the Watchmen but somehow found his way out but had stayed hidden all these years. His name was Jose Reyna.

Jose Reyna was once a revered Watchman, who served under Lord and Duchess Murillo a long time ago.

He was their go-to guy for all their dirtiest jobs and he was feared by all.

Legend had it that Jose was given a task by Lord and Duchess Murillo's which his conscience couldn't bear.

He was asked to kill an innocent child. An assignment which he refused to do. As punishment for his disobedience, Lord and Duchess Murillo had his whole family killed right before his eyes.

He only managed to escape death by the skin of his teeth!

He made several attempts to avenge his family. But these ended up in failure as Lord and Duchess Murillo were always prepared and heavily guarded.

In one of the attempts, he was heavily injured and some even claimed that he was dead. But when a search was conducted his body was not found. He had never been seen since then.

The Oraha believed that the resurfacing of the Lord and Duchess Murillo would be able to bring Jose Reyna out of hiding. Even though he had been hidden all these years, it was worth a try.

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

For a moment the expression on their faces was blank, then Lord Murillo let out a wide smile.

Then Lord Murillo got up and went round table. Then he motioned for the prisoners to be brought closer to him.

The atmosphere in the room thickened with tension, as everyone knew the inevitable.

Slowly Lord Murillo turned the box to reveal Antonio the Castillo head with a gunshot hold on his forehead...
