Please kindly walk them out for me
They all walked out of the scene and Senator Adebayo waked back to pick up the
package and check what’s in it

Senator Ade
He indecisively watched the package for a long period, curious to know what in it
but nervous for the unexpected, Opens the package and saw three boxes in the
package
Opens it and exclaimed, he saw breast in the first box, he was very shocked and
curious to know whats in the rest of the boxes, he opened the second box in spilt
second, it was a human heart, he did as well the third box and this time he was
more shocked, it was a bomb and a phone beside it, he exclaimed and
immediately dropped the package on the table, instantly the phone beside the
bomb he saw rang, he watched it rang confused and call out to his security
guards. Then his personal phone rang, it was a strange number, he then picked it
up and he heard a strange voice

Stranger
Hello Senator Adoye, listen carefully.

Senator Adeoye
Who is this?

Strange Voice
That is not your problem, your problem is that the bomb in front of you will
trigger in 5seconds if you don’t obey what I am about to tell you. I have my eyes
all around you and I can see you as we speak. I will like you to gently walk out of
 that sitting room outside your gate without your guards following you, if they
refuse to obey and try to follow you outside, that bomb will explode.

Senator Adoye
Okay sir.
He instructed his guards to stay back as he walked outside shivering. The gateman
on sight saw him and ran away in fear.
He opened the gate and walked outside, he saw a Van some meters away from
him, then the strange man spoke to him again,

Strange voice
Now, gently walk towards that van and enter when the door opens.

Senator Adeoye heeds to instruction, walked right into the van and the van drove
away

Scene 2
INT/DAY

The senator was seen on his knees with his head covered and his hands were tied
to his back, with him were some men who are heavily armed walking vigilantly
around him.
A table was in front of him with a laptop placed on the table, one of the men
walked towards him, slapped him hard from behind and removed his head cover
and untied him, moved backward and shot his leg, and told him if he says a word,
he’ll be dead.
 The senator who was really scared shouted out in pain and quickly griddle his
mouth with one of his hand and the other hand holding his leg while shaking
profusely in pains.
Armed man
Now, this is your bank portal, don’t ask any stupid question, now login your
account now.
Senator Adeoye without uttering any word fearfully login with his fingers shaking
as he types on the laptop.

Senator Adeoye
It has login sir (with his voice shaking)

Armen Man

He stretched a paper to him with account number and name written on it ( the
accounts states the bank to be an orphanage home)

 SCENE 3
INT/DAY
At the senators house.
The guards were so confused and trying to figure where the problem came from.

Guard 1
*speaks angrily and confusedly* What is really going on here I dont understand,
where do we find Senator to now.
Ehen!!!

Guard 2
Damn!!

Guard 3
I am suspecting something, you know this game is a very deadly game, I suspect
the government might know about this, was it just a coincident that the senator’s
visitors left immediately the package got here.

Guard 1
Quickly sensed too.
That’s true o, you have a point.

Guard 4(female guard)

 Pressing her iPad fast, she looked up and said
“I was able to hack into Senator’s Phone and tracked the location of the phone, I
think I know where they are.
Guard 2 jumped up with eagerness and readjust his gun ready to move
Immediately they heard a siren and the police Van drove in.

DPO
Good afternoon, So do any of you have any idea where they might have taken
senator to or who might have done the job.
They all looked at each other and shake their heads while saying they have no
idea.
Guard 4 who wasn’t looking while pressing her phone wanted to speak out while
the guard closest to her quickly signal her not to talk, unfortunately one of the
police officer noticed the reaction

DPO
Okay, then we will further our investigation as well but we will need a statement
from you in our station.
The whole guards started murmuring loudly refusing to go to the station.

Guard 3
Excuse me Sir, this is a private registered security agency sir, we have nothing to
tell you and we are going nowhere with you sir, if you have a problem with that
you contact our HQ

DPO
Okay fine then you can write the statement here, we need to work together not
all this aggressiveness.
HE instructed one of the officers to go bring the statement books in the van
.

Scene 4
EXT/DAY

As they entered the vehicle about to move out of the scene, the police officer
who noticed the false movement at the scene was sitting in the front seat with
the DPO and he called his attention to it.

OFFICER
Sir, I noticed a false movement with those guys.
That female guard wanted to say something but they didn’t allow her speak, I do
strongly think they are hiding something from us.

DPO
I noticed that too but didn’t really…..
Oh!
He quickly radioed and placed a car and a sniper surveillance on them.
As the sniper sighted the guards getting in the vehicle about to move out of the
house, he quickly radioed the DPO that the guards are on the move.
They quietly followed the guards as they drove out
 Scene 5
EXT/DAY

The guards were seen quietly and tactically sneaking into a building with the
female guard who is holding an iPad giving directions.
They finally got to the location the iPad gave them and found nobody there
except the senator’s phone, immediately they got there the phone started
ringing. They were all shocked and slowly trying to decide what to do.
Then the police walked in as well and argument busted on what they are hiding
something from the police and why.
One of the guards then shouted and asked them to shut up and walked towards
the phone ringing. He picked it up and it was the strange man’s voice again.

Strange Voice
So you thought I would have been so stupid to have let the Senators phone stay
here with him in this den?
You must be a fool to think that, I believe this is the Police DPO because this
message is for them. I want you to tell the government to provide the sum of
200million naira in cash and bring it to the location I am going to send you now, if
you try to make any stupid move like the one that got you here, your man is gone.

Guard
Okay but at least can I speak to him at least to let us know if he is still alive before
we get that kind amount of money.

Strange voice
You will talk to him the next time I call
“You have 48hours to get the money to that location, if not your man is gone and
not only that. You have 4 city blocks and supermarket loaded with C4 which is
going to blow up in that 48hours if you don’t listen, he then hangs up the phone.

He then stoop up and walks towards the the senator.

The senator who has his face covered back was hearing voices of the armed men
chanting and hyping their boss as he hears his footstep walking towards him.
One of the Armed men behind the senator took the cover out and the Senator
looked right into the face of the mysterious man behind the Voice.

Senator Adeoye
Exclaimed with shortage of breath as he started stuttering
Ho…w cou…ld it be
You….

Strange man
You are surprised right
He then faked a smile on his face.
Scene ends.

Scene 6
INT/DAY
Police department office.
DPO
How are we supposed to come up with that kind of money in 48hrs. What are we
going to do, can someone just come up with an idea for me.
 Officer one
Sir I suggest we print fake money and take it there to lure them out so we can
attack them sir

DPO
That’s too dumb, we can’t take such risk what if we couldn’t capture them and
they find out it’s a fake money
Whats the Senators fate.

Female Guard
*clears throat*
Well we can actually get the money from the bank, I mean it’s the government we
are talking about here, you guys can actually do anything, we get the money from
them, I’ll build a linen tracker on one of the note and we don’t have to worry
about where they are taking the money to because we can easily track them
down with that sir… just saying.

DPO
That’s brilliant, I love that idea,
as he was talking the evident phone rang and they picked it up ,
Cuts to
The armed man passed the phone to the senator and told him,
“Speak to your people to bring the money or you are as good as dead to me.
Senator quickly and shakily took the phone and exclaimed
“Please get the money, borrow it, loan it, anyhow I will return it from my foreign
investment.
The Armed man looked at him and smile again
The female guard was trying to ask him some question but the Armed man
snatched the phone from his hand and hungs up.

Strange man
“you even have foreign investments”
He looked at his mates and they all laughed

Armed man2
That’s how they do, they’ll steal all our money here and take it out of the country.

Strange Man:
That’s not even why I am here and he knows it.
Walks toward him and bend his head to his face level and shouted at his face
“ OR don’t you”
Senator nods his head correctly with his eyes closed in fear acknowledging.

OFFICER
Wow, this is so tragedic, but you should have seek the help of other policemen, it
is not all the policemen that are corrupt, you shouldn’t have taken laws into your
hands. Now you will be charged not only for Kidnaping and assault but also for the
murder of the DPO and other police officers, you know what that means, and the
Man you did all this for later escaped. We would have even helped you in further
investigation to get him nailed but everything you said now there is no evidence
for it.
I am so sorry for you. There is absolutely nothing I can do to help you.
