The Twist - Episode 41
The Junkie threw his gun down out of fear than from Bashir's command.
His heart slamming against his ribs as he stared at this gigantic man with scratchy face and blood was running down the side of his thick neck.
Amaka had sprung up and ran to Bashir when he heard his voice.
She had embraced Bashir and even though her actions affected Bashir's position, the junkie was too terrified to react.
He won't allow this security man to shoot him because of this insane operation.
Its good for Romeo and the driver to leave him all alone here to be caught.
He should come and see how his bright idea had gone sour.
"Step away from the gun."
Bashir commanded him.
The Junkie quickly obeyed.
Amaka was clutching Bashir's left arm in fear.
"They are 2 more. One of them just went out a few minutes ago."
Amaka said hurriedly.
"I know. what of the guy in Black sweat shirt?"
Bashir asked, His eyes sweeping the forest trees.
"He is their leader, I don't know where he went to but he will be around. He planned this with Stella"
Amaka sobbed.
"Who is Stella?"
"My girlfriend. She was behind this"
"Do you know where she lives?"
"Yes

. She is Dr. Uche's wife."
Bashir was still searching around the forest with his eyes and covered the Junkie with his gun.
When he did not see anything to alert his suspicion, he motioned the Junkie to move towards the other side of the forest.
Immediately the Junkie stepped out of his view, Bashir saw a figure hiding behind a big tree.
He would have missed seeing it if he wasn't on the look out for it.
Another big tree had block where Bashir was standing so Romeo did not have a clear shot. He peered at them and their eyes met.
"Down!"
Bashir screamed at Amaka and almost immediately he heard rapid burst of gun shots and something buzzed past his right ear like angry bees.
He veered to the left, hit the ground and opened up with his Sub Machine gun at the shooting figure by the tree.
Romeo had quickly changed position and was running towards another tree; shooting at them as he ran.
Bullets kicked up sand, stones and leaves around Bashir as he rolled further to his left towards a fallen tree.
He looked around and saw Amaka lying flat on the ground trembling.
The Junkie was lying face down, he was caught in the crossfire and the bullets from Romeo's gun had tore his limb off his body.
Another bullet had hit the back of his head and escaped through his left eyes.
Bashir noticed the attacker isn't shooting anymore.
He sneaked to the tree trunk and hide there panting.
Had it been he was aware Romeo had ran out bullet, he would have easily go to where he was hiding and picked him up like a sitting duck but Romeo's crazy shooting had terrified him once more.
"Stay down. Don't panic, I am here"
he whispered to Amaka who looked up and saw Romeo running deep in the thick bush.
"Bashir he is running away. Come let's go."
Amaka said and Bashir raised his head from the tree trunk in time to see Romeo's back escaping.
"No, I am going after him. I won't allow him to warn the lady who organised this.

. She will go into hiding. Go to the car and drive back to the city. Alert the police. Tell them what happened. Go go go."
"Bashir he will kill you. Come lets go. Please"
Amaka pleaded.
Bashir checked his gun magazine, he was almost out and he can't hunt for this lunatic without a gun.
He saw The Junkie's A.K47, picked it, checked the cartilages and almost sighed with relief.
He positioned the gun almost lovingly, his lost confidence restored.
"Your car is down the road. Just move straight, you won't miss the road. Tell the nearest police team I am going after the criminal. They should send more men with police dogs."
Bashir said to Amaka and began to run towards the direction Romeo disappeared. Amaka said a silent prayer for him and started down footpath that led to the track road...
