I was on my way out of the little cubicle i call a home, having got the message on my mobile that reads "Unchattered waters, thread with care" and this was prior to the message the day before that indicates that i will be under the pyramid protection.
As usual, the discomfort sets into my mind but the implications when i fail is too much to think about and the circumstance when i refuse is truly unthinkable. I was recruited as a debt collector under the guise that i should know nothing of the group and simply be under a single arm as i had to do what i had to do cause the lives of my loved ones are in my hands, should i fail, they will be nothing left of them by the time several piece are sent over to me in different packages.
Life has been fun as i got into campus but it was never my idea that revealing what you possibly can do will limit your desire of freedom. I remember vividly when the war was brought my way, the surrounds felt the claw that i had hidden perfectly until that gruesome day when all hell went loose. It seems like only yesterday and that moment was a deciding factor of a choice i had to always do my whole life, would you value yourself more than the lives of the ones you profess to love.
Relationship for me was an abomination cause every little angel i bring into my life is another way of bringing hurt as well not from the relationship but by the threat of words from a highly insane group of people who thought that the end of the world was in their hands to control. Had i known more as i do today, i could but stand on the principle that says i should not fear those who can kill the flesh but only the Lord God whose power it is to condemn or redeem the soul as well.
Foolishness is a gift if you seem to say you are foolish for a right reason, as it was my case in those days, i was truly foolish cause i lost in on what i wanted to become but fell into a world i never ever wanted to partake again in this world or if it is mentioned in the world to come. I was armed to the teeth with a five tools of way and as tradition has it, i choose never to get any where close to the guns and their look alike, as i was truly attune with the believe that what you use in hurting others will be used upon you for sure. What i came to understand very soon was that the guns were the fastest way to avoid being shot but it is also the easiest way to get yourself marked as a target allover again.
I was not a hit man and also not an executioner, so at the time i felt the freedom to use dialogue in my negotiations for debt and it has worked for the whole time but today was sort of different. I was soon out in the open and as i soon discovered, the pyramid angle has been formed about 100 to 300 meters away. I had to avoid the constant hand shakes from those i had to present as friends and avoided my true friends completely cause any contact with any person is an offense.
I felt the bulky grip of my dagger on the right side of my combat Jean trousers and believing on the left my relentless baton stands firm, i was also assured of my long discomforting machete that signifies that i was at war for real, but i was not in any way afraid of what may come along the way. After all i was just a debt collector and in no way am i expected to get in the way of battle if any ensues. I also knew that if anything goes wrong, i will be a marked men for life and the journey of my own thousand mile will sure begin in a very short instant by running away from the life in the campus and ensuring i change all i can change if i am to exist in the long run. In this world it i simple, you can surely run as far as you can but the truth is their is no hiding.
The weather seems to understand my discomfort as i walked the long road towards the school environs, it was cool and the sun was found hiding cowardly behind the clouds of dark clouds, its effort to shine only made the day bright but the cloud succeeded in taking in all its warmth and leaving a sense of cold fear hanging on my temples, forehead as the hair on my back began a drastic awakening on its own.
The life of fear and death already kills you before they ever seem to occur. The nature of doom is not when it is mentioned, but at the point when your life seems too open before you and mentioned who you must take serious, yourself or your friends. Life is too inglorious to turn your back on friend but it always never make you the same cause as it was for Christ on the cross, he had to become a character that truly cares but actually only does for those who believe in his messages. I was only interested for a whole lot and in listing them i could be far gone but in saying what i must say, i know that it will just be another tales in the eye of another reader and i believe it will be wise to assume that cause the truth of this tale is that it should not be found out.
As the campus gates opens it reality for me in the horizon, i noticed the strange added security at the gates, yes the information has been compromised cause a gate that used to have just blue uniformed security guards, seems to have the added military uniforms, and the police men in their thick body bags. I knew it at once that access via that root has been compromised and in the swift seconds as i thought, i changed my root away from the campus and decided that i will have to access the gates on another thread.
I soon found myself taxi from the community taxi stand, i made an agreement with him and he was to take my tools in while i walked alongside and the pay was too massive for him to neglect. I also added a little bit of warning, if you sell me out, i will come for you instantly. It is a simple code, if you loose your grip on an agreement, death is the ultimate price and there is no such death that seems so lright than the death of a snitch or maybe a loose canon.
Though i still needed to worry about how the information escaped the operations within the group but i knew i had a very clean slate and as this is my first in campus operation, i needed to be smart about it or reveal what i never wanted others to see.
Right in front of the administration block, i saw the groups i had to meet and knew that was a fact to tell me that they are ready for the mission ahead. The target was in the lecture having his anatomic quick quiz and i had to join in and discuss with him before he alerts his crew. As the fresh man, i followed suit the plan we had the day before and as soon as i stepped into the quiz hall, i was arrayed by a group of men who choose to ransack me and see what i had hidden below my attires.
The nature in us all is the fact that we are always filled with anticipations in all that we always believe is an easy way to go. There is no easy death and there is not free lifestyle, everything comes with a prize and whatever choice you make you must be willing to hand over the whole of your sacrifice unless you might end up in the shackle of your own making.
Nothing was found and i was allowed through, i had almost been so assertive that i have lost it all. In the same compromise, i was far from understanding what was within and as time flies, i soon saw my target in his uneasy format and almost gun ready if i suppose cause his right hand was missing from the table but this left was pretending to be writing some bullshit notes on the piece of paper. His camouflage arm was so well [laced that the examiner was totally lost in it all, one must be cautious at times like this cause with anticipations come lots or mistakes.
On arrival close to his desk, i had dropped a note for him on the desk without calling attention to my self and then i found a comfortable seat behind and make a sign to join in the ongoing quiz. It was soon over and at the end, only two people were left in the hall after a long long while. The negotiations stated but as i knew, outside these walls, if i get out with a squeezed face or a red alert as it is called, the war will begin but to avoid the war, i must be sure of what is made clear and ensure that all goes according to plan.
Negotiations of this caliber was never done by the debt collector but as it is the first time and i am standing in for the number one, i was honored though but with a great death wish hanging on my neck. It is as expensive as loosing the precious life i have already. I was as calm as possible and was able to pass on all necessary document that will successfully allow him time to read through and understand what the captain is after. He was in no way tensed, he was certain that his desire to live will not be compromised but that i might just be a nobody as the case seems. I remembered the look on his face when he looked int my eyes and saw the intense response and them he brought out his weapons on the table to show me he was aware of my coming and then revealed a shocking stare when the dagger came from my side and the machete came from under the desk.
I guess he knew there must be a gun somewhere but if i could bring these across without being arrayed on the door in, then i must be good at what i do. It is simply a test that shows how long each person has been in the game and he has a way of creating fear to counter his own desires and it was a game i was willing to play with him as well.
Deliberations ensued and there were many conditions he had to cancel to ensure he was still in control of his arms and weaponry business in the campus. These conditions were not negotiable cause he was either leaving here with a yes to the agreement or a no to his life and that of his armed men at the door. He now choose to threaten and then as soon as he tried to, a single shot pieced through the desk right through the documents in his face...
fear soon reveled on his face and then the true nature of what he is came to the picture. A coward would even attest to the fact that he was braver than what this little child did in the midst of fear and then the tears and shakes started, he was soon wet in his pants and then i realized that my expectations were totally wrong and without assuming anything, i intend to go get my lunch now and that will mean he agrees or a bullet will fall through your fore head.
=======> more from the debt collector soon
