Charles said ,

" No ! You were right , I'm not the leader they required , I should have stepped back from the leadership a long ago but I didn't because , I wanted everyone to respect me but I didn't knew , being a leader was that much hard that I have to be the responsible of the deaths of my own people , that's too hard for me and I can not tell you , how would I carry this burden on my shoulders ... "

Connor replied ,

" You see , we all made leaders in our worst times but it's upon us that how we over come those crises that's what true leader means , you gotta become a leader and I can see in you that you have a great potential in you and you can do whatever you want , you are a strong me Charles and I believe in you and I'm sure your people believe in you too ... "

Charles asked ,

" Do you think , they will believe in me ? After what happened ? How would they believe in me even I couldn't save a important member of my community then how would I supposed to protect them , they will never believe in me ... "

Mason replied ,

" Then make them believe Charles and you know , how you can change the mind of your people ... Stay strong and happy for Martine .. "

Charles replied ,

" I'm happy Connor , besides we have been through a lot this is nothing in front of what we been through .... "

After burying Martine , they prayed for his forgiveness when they done praying behind Connor Ryan came and said ,

" Sadly the harsh truth about the world is that , we only care about the persons existence when he dies ... "

Connor replied ,

" Yeah ! but that's the human nature we couldn't do that much about it , you know when I first saw Martine , I began to think that he is evil but he proved me wrong and he died like a hero , he was right in his place , it was our fault that we couldn't understood , what he was trying to say but I'm sure he must be at a better place and Charles will take a sensible step to continue his will that he will keep the community safe and secure .... "

Ryan said ,

" Don't worry about it for now , I have some news for you , one of my mime have given me a perfect tip that the person you been looking for is at fort dock loading some containers and heading out for a long journey to Indian ocean , after that you won't get any chance of meeting him again so you make sure to catch him .... "

Connor replied ,

" Alright ! I assume I have to go now , take care of everyone , one day we have leave this world too but keep that in mind whatever we do we should inspire our next generation to be like us , we should put ourselves as role models for them .... "

Ryan said ,

" It's funny but Martine used to say that years ago although he stopped talking about this but I knew now what he meant by that he put himself as role model for others now it's our turn to do so , thanks for everything my man , if you required anything in future do ask me , I will be happy to help you in these times ... "

Connor replied ,

" I'm sure , I will call you for any help , keep me in your prayers ... "

Connor hugged him and said ,

" Good bye friend ! "

Connor walked straight towards the other mimes and asked them to drop him to fort dock , when he arrived at fort dock and passed the entrance gate , he saw bunch of people beating each other and a middle age person was solving there problems but in end everyone leaves and walked out of the dock entrance , they all sat down on the road , Connor saw that and went straight to the man , he asked ,

" Hey ! do you have time to talk ? "

Man replied ,

" Do I look like I am in any shape to talk , how about you wait for a second so I can fix this problem ... "

Connor asked ,

" What problem ? "

Man replied ,

" My crew , they have ignored my orders and disrespected me just because I reduced there payment because we delivered the cargo late and they cut our payments now they all blame me for this ... "

Connor said ,

" Now that's sad ... can I help you anything surely I can convince them to get back with you again .... "

Man replied ,

" You can , if you do that , I will assure you I will do anything for you just please help me , we have to leave in 1 hour or else our contract will be cancel and my company will fire me , I have kids , they will sleep in hunger if I don't earn money please you have to help me ... "

Connor said ,

" Alright ! chill up I will help you , you should calm your self first .... "

Connor walked towards all the crew members and starts sorting things out by talking to them , he then gave them some money and asked them to join his crew once again , they all agreed and walked back to the captain , they said sorry to him and starts working again , man said ,

" How did you do that ? "
