Chapter 26 On a ship to Iraq
Both Larry and Garry’s face widened.
“Skyler!.”they both called.
He walked to them slowly and he stopped in front of them.
“Good to see you, Garry. I know you will definitely come up with something!.”he said.
“What are you doing here?.”they both asked.
Skyler turned to Larry.
“I came here after Sam told you traveled down here.”
“I also came to warn you also.”he turned to Garry and said.
“I also brought Annie in. That’s just all I nodded to convince Mr Sean that I’m helping them.”
Larry’s eyes bulged out of its socket.
What?.
“So you brought her in?, Skyler?, oh my God!… this is all your fault!, you brought her in because of a stupid….”
“Be wise, Larry. I’m sure Garry understand already. If I hadn’t taken her, the other guys would!. Beside, she was just on a run which I’m sure they’re chasing her when I ran into her.”Skyler replied.
Larry scoffed.
“And….”
“The deed has been done already. Let’s forget about that and focus on the matter at hand.”Garry interrupted.
Skyler also nodded.
He brought two vile out from his pocket.
“Here.”he proffered it to Garry.
Garry collected it and sighed.
“You’re just like a brother, Skyler. I don’t know how, but, you are always around when I’m helpless.”
Skyler nodded with a small smile and handed the one to Larry.
“An eye lens?”Larry said.
“Good, now be quick!. They will come in at anytime.”Skyler said.
They both dropped the lens on their eyeballs.
Garry eyes turned brown and Larry owns turned blue.
“You have twenty minutes, Garry, before the ship start to move, can you make it?.”Skyler asked.
“You happen to know our plan so fast!.”Larry scoffed.
“Because I’ve been in this for many years, dummy!. I can detest with just a glimpse.”Skyler replied.
“I hope so!.”Garry sighed.
“There’s a power bike parked just right in a corner. You will see it when you go out. I believe that will help.”Skyler sighed.
“Yeah, I owe you a big thanks!.”Garry smiled.
The door opened and Pedro came in.
“I might be letting you go now but you don’t wanna do anything stupid, my eyes are on you. I have eyes everywhere.”Pedro said.
Skyler took Garry by his collar.
“You don’t really wanna mess with us, little man.”he smirked and dragged him out.

The car arrived at the sea.
A big ship was clearly in sight.
The door opened and Annie was dragged out of the seat.
They started moving towards the ship and with each step they took, Annie’s hope started fading away.
A rough guy stepped out of the ship and rendered unto them an annoying smile with those filthy, dirty teeth of his.
They finally got to the ship and handed her over to him.
“No!.”she whimpered.
“Be rest assured, princess. Iraq is a good place.”the guy said.
His mouth smell of garlic and Annie instantly felt like puking.
“Nice. The girl is a beaut, just like the lords want.”the guy said to the one that brought her.
He then took her in and to a particular room then backed out.
Annie banged hard on the door.
No!.
“Welcome aboard!.”someone said behind her and she turned to see almost like fifty girls there in the room under the dimmed red light.
What?.
They all had their faces buried in their legs.
Except for the one that spoke.
Annie scoffed.
“I am not welcome. Don’t welcome me!.”Annie yelled.
“It’s already too late my dear. What’s your name?, you’re beautiful.”the girl smiled.
“It’s not too late….. it’s not…..”
The ship honked
Huh?!.
“Oops!. Too late!.”the girl smirked.
And slowly, the ship started moving.
Garry hopped on the power bike and grabbed the helmet.
He turned the key in the ignition hole and it vibrated to life.
He revved the car around and drove away.
He has only 10 minutes….
10 minutes to get there.
He increased the space in which he was driving.
He took some corners… they are probably the faster way now..
Even the road might be blocked.
He breathed out.
He hopes he get successful this time around.

“Thanks, nurse. You’re really more kind.”Rosetta smiled at the nurse Larry appointed to her to look over her when he and Annie were traveling out.
“Don’t mention, ma. The kindest one here is really you.”the nurse beamed as she handed a cup of hot coffee to her.
Rosetta collected it from her and sipped out of it.
“Don’t you think you should start going?, it’s late and I can pretty much handle the rest, you should go.”she said.
“Huh?, but I’m still yet to prepare your dinner and…”
“Don’t worry, child. You probably have a home to take care of, go.”Rosetta assured.
“Alright.”the nurse said and went to grab her bag.
“Good night, ma’am. Thanks for your kind gesture. I’ll be here early tommorow.”the nurse said.
Rosetta gave her a bright smile and watched as she walked out of the house.
Immediately she was out of sight, she sighed.
It’s damn hard to pretend she was happy.
Her husband will soon be back home and scatter the room the poor girl had just rearranged.
She sighed softly.
She can’t take this anymore….
She will file a divorce when Annie comes back.

Garry drove crazily inside the sea port.
His heart skipped when he saw the ship honked…
He jumped off the bike and ran towards the ship.
The ship started moving and his breath got rough.
He ran after it like furiously, he stepped inside the water then jumped up and landed on the ship.
He sighed when he was on top…
Oh.
He got up and walked the stairs down.
He saw two guys backing up and he moved up behind them stealthily and kicked their asses then landed a huge blow on their faces.
They fell on the floor making a this sound.
He sighed.
He bent over to them and searched their pocket.
He found a gun in one of their pocket and grabbed it.
He tucked it in his trouser and walked further in.
He saw two different doors, opposite each other.
The girls are probably kept in one of them.
He bit his lower lip.
The problem now is how he was going to identify the one she is in.
If he mistook it and landed in the presence of the men, that would definitely be tough cause he would have to take them down first before moving to the second room.
“Come, come take a seat here. It’s really comforting here,”he heard a voice said.
Hm?.
He turned to where the voice came from.
It was a girl’s voice and they were barely audible.
He walked to the door and tried to push it open but discover it was locked.
God!!!!.
He balled his hand in a hard fist.
His mind did a quick calculation.
Yes!.
He ran to the guys he has taken down.
He remembered seeing a key…. a key…
He searched the first guy and then the second one then… yes!, the key!.
He took it and ran back to the door.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
He inserts it inside the keyhole and closed his eyes as he turned it.
The door made a sound before opening.
His eyes snapped opened and he breathed in relief.
Annie was right in front of the door and some other girls were…
“Larry!.”Annie wanted to shouts but he was quick to cover her mouth with his palm.
“No, you don’t need that.”he whispered.
He gave a glance to the other girls and shook his head.
He wish he can’t save them also.
He pulled Annie out gently and locked the door then turned around.
“Come, let’s go?”he whispered and started heading to the top of the ship with her.
*Did you hear that?.*
*I think someone is in here.*
*Let go check*
They heard voices.
Annie’s heartbeat skipped.
A door opened behind them.
“Hey!, who are you!!”the man yelled.
Garry sighed and pulled Annie to the top.
Just then, two men came out from the other side.
Busted!.
Garry moved back with Annie.
They hit the railings which is the dead end and any movement again, they will fall into the sea.
The men were each holding a gun.
Garry’s grabbed Annie’s hand and gave her a look.
He stared into the water and sighed.
“What, no?.”Annie said.
“Why?.”he asked.
“I can’t swim.”she trembled.
The men started moving towards them, their guns were pointed at them.
Garry sighed.
He grabbed Annie’s hand more tightly and spun around with her.
The only way is by jumping inside the water but she can’t swim?.

Pedro sat comfortably in the hotel’s room.
Sean opened the door from the other side with the key and stepped in.
He bowed when he saw him seated on the couch.
“What should we do to the boy, sir?.”he asked.
Pedro scoffed.
“Get the documents from him and get him to change the name written on it to mine.”
Sean nodded.
“Alright sir.”
“After securing the documents, then, you can blow him off with the building.”
