She felt like she has met that name before and the name sounds deadly to her.
Not quite long Wisdom called Mikel, and then Mikel was seen running down the stairs with tears.
Just to see this girl again!
"Mikel?" Birdie called his name.
★
And Mikel almost fainted as he thought that Wisdom has leaked the secret.
He was just waiting to hear what her first word would be.
"Why did you call his name like that?" Wisdom said to Birdie.
"Umm... it is actually nothing, just that am so happy seeing him again," Birdie said as she was so excited.
And then Mikel's mind began to calm down immediately.
"And why are you crying, Mikel? besides, where is Zara'm?" Wisdom asked.
"Am even about to ask him that, why was he still crying"
"He has been crying since all this while, besides, who is Zara'm" Birdie asked.
"And who are you to ask who she is! how is that your business!?" Mikel yelled at her and then turn to Wisdom.
"Wisdom what are you even doing?"
"You brought a stranger to our home?" Mikel said and ran upstairs but Wisdom didn't bother that much about his reaction.
"Hmmm... Birdie did you see any girl with him at the club?" Wisdom asked.
"No, he was alone" Birdie answered and then Wisdom has it that Zara'm is gone.
And that's why Mikel has not been himself, although Wisdom has the ideal before.
Which was what made him to bring Birdie along and maybe he can give her a chance to be his mate.
And change his past for him so he can begin a new life with her.
"Okay... Birdie wait for me here, let me speak with him"
"I will be back within some minutes, but first of all..."
"Do you truly love him...? and want him to be your mate?" Wisdom asked.
"Umm... yes of course" Birdie replied and then Wisdom nodded and ran upstairs.
And then Birdie begins to think so many things, she is sure that she has brutally met the name "Mikel".
And she can recall that Mikel once told her "Sorry but I think you should avoid me if you want to live a better life"
She is now understanding what Mikel meant by that.
But not that her mind is telling her that Mikel is the one that killed her family.
Her mind was only telling her that something is going fishy.
"Hmm... their moves can tell it all, something is not alright"
"Who is Zara'm after all? who could she be, anyway I think..."
"That it must be what they are discussing up there"
"Maybe I should go and try to catch some of their discussion"
"And from what they are saying, I would know what's wrong" Birdie said in her intellect.
★Volkir Forest★
The heavy large forest was added in a view with its beautiful green plants.
And some of the plants are blue in color and those blue plants are the plants that shine very bright at night.
So who so ever comes to Volkir at night would really confirm what a beauty looks like.
The plants are well beautified at the midnight, and there are also some other little sparkling lights that use to be falling down from the stems.
Although that only happens at night when the day is cold.
Because the plants got their most beautifulness on the coldest day.
This means the source of its power came from cold.
Besides the men in white and red uniforms were placed in a view.
They are really many on the road, although they are on the left side across the highway.
While the forest was on the right side across the highway.
And they were all aiming at the forest, While Zilla was shown as he was standing in the middle.
And then there are not less than twenty soldier men at his left.
And the same at his right side, and all the soldiers were all aiming at the bush.
"Hold!" Zilla shouted as the soldiers aims strongly and some part of the bush was shaking.
Starting from the center, the grass was shaking forward.
And that is to prove that something is coming after them.
Which was exactly the thing they are waiting for as they aimed their gun at it.
Besides, the soldiers were all ready as they keep their guns steady and aimed directly.
As the creature keeps coming forward.
"Hold...!" Zilla shouted again as the creature steadily keeps coming forward.
And not up to a minute which he shouted, the creature jump out of the Bush.
And that was a bear! a big one! they wanted to shoot but Zilla still shouted "hold!"
"What the fuck!" one of the soldiers mumbled as he still concentrated on his work.
Although the bear still continues running after them.
"Hold...! shoot!" Zilla ordered just as soon as the bear was trying to cross the main road.
And the armies followed his orders immediately and fired at the bear.
But the bear keeps heading forward even as they were shooting at it.
And it was mostly coming after Zilla, but Zilla and his men are too proud to run.
Although they know what they can do, so none of the soldiers made a single move of running.
And that is what the vanguard armies are trained for.
Never stop fighting to conquer no matter how the situation appears to be.
And what they mostly think is that the bullets are not ordinary.
It is also poisonous apart from being a bullet, which is mostly how Vanguardians construct their weapons.
They add some other poisonous chemical that would kill the opponent within a minute of their shot.
And that's exactly the main reason behind the soldiers not shifting back as the bear was coming close.
Although the bear's body has been murdered by so many bullets.
But the bear keeps trudging forward and was just so eager to chop off the head of Zilla.
So as the brave Zilla stand still looking at it, he wasn't even with a gun, not to talk of shooting at the bear
So he was just admiring the bear as it was struggling forward.
★V.S.W.I★
Switzer was shown to be sitting in his apartment.
That is his office, besides it wasn't only his office.
It was an office managed by many, and that was his friends.
Which are Zilla and Wisdom, so there are three executive chairs and tables at the office.
Although Wisdom was not really among as he has a limited time to stay.
Because both he and Mikel is to go back to their home at Volkir, immediately Mikel gets cured.
Wisdom was only given the job because he is just too smart for someone to overshadow him.
Either he is not staying for long or not and besides, that position requires smartness.
Moreover, Switzer was the only one at the office as he was busy with his system.
When he heard a knock on his door and he looks up just to see Ileana.
The office is transparent of course, so someone outside can be seen easily.
But someone inside the office cannot be seen that clearly because it will look like a blur.
"Come in," Switzer said to Ileana.
And Ileana opened the door and came inside the office with two cups of coffee.
She hands over one of the cups to Switzer and Switzer gladly accepts it with a clean heart.
"Thank you!" Switzer said as he keeps down the coffee.
"Why keep it waiting? come on drink it before it gets cold" Ileana said to Switzer.
"Hmmm... you are right," Switzer said as he takes a sip of the coffee immediately.
"Umm... are you the only one at work, where are other of your colleagues?" Ileana asked.
"Well, Zilla is not around, he went for training and Wisdom is not at work today"
"And if I may ask, why you didn't go to train with Zilla today?" Switzer asked.
"Of course, I don't use to, because am not under his army academy" Ileana replied and Switzer nods.
"Are you busy?" Ileana asked.
"Not really..." Switzer replied.
"Can we take a walk?" Ileana requested.
"Okay, let's go" Switzer accepted without even hesitating, none like him before.
And both of them stand up with their cups of coffee in their hands.
As Ileana stared at him with a smile and both of them leads to outside.
Although they passed Dr. Stella's office and Stella actually saw them.
As she frowned her face immediately they passed her.
"Who is that girl?" Stella mumbled.
★★★
Switzer and Ileana were shown as they step out of the building.
Coming back to the first place they met, which is at the back of the V.S.W.I near the ocean.
"Switzer what about Wisdom? why is he not at work today?" Ileana asked.
"He went in search of his friend" Switzer answered.
"Like seriously? he left his job just to go and look for his friend?" Ileana asked.
And Switzer just smiled at her, because she don't really know Wisdom's job.
"What is his job? staying at V.S.W.I? no, of course, it is not"
"He went for his real job, the real reason why he is here" Switzer replied.
But Ileana was not getting it, she doesn't understand what Switzer is trying to say.
"What is his work then?" Illeana asked.
"He is on a quest to make sure that his friend is cured" Switzer replied.
And as he said that, Ileana remembered about the recent remedy that was specially prepared.
"Oh...? so was he the one that they made the therapy for?" Ileana asked.
"Maybe" Switzer replied.
"Hmm... however, that wasn't why we are here," Ileana said.
"Why are we here?" Switzer asked and Ileana was about to reply when he interrupted again.
"I have told you that I don't have an answer to that question"
"And you couldn't even wait for a day?" Switzer said to her.
"Hmm you read me like a book, how can I wait, I have to come, time to time..." Ileana replied as she steps close to him.
And place her hands on his cheeks "I just wanna be with you" Ileana said to him as she started bringing her head close to kiss him.
And so as Switzer also brought his head close!
★★★
Dr. Stella's home.
Birdie was shown as she was making a move, trying to go upstairs.
And then Mikel was inside his room sitting on top of his bed when Wisdom ran in.
"Wisdom what have you done? what the fuck have you done?" Mikel shouted to him.
"Mikel calm down, first of all, just calm down we will sort everything out"
"Where is Zara'm first of all" Wisdom asked.
"She left me, she abandoned me! and am trying to put myself on a low key because of her disappearance..."
"And you is trying to make it all worst!" Mikel yelled at Wisdom.
"I know I have provoked you but please calm down and tell me..."
"Why you are mad at me because I brought Birdie here"
"Come on she may make a good mate or even a better one to you," Wisdom said to Mikel.
"What the fuck are you trying to say? what the hell are you saying!"
"She would even try to kill me! do you know her down to her family?"
"That girl you brought to this house was the same girl I murdered her family that night that I went worst" Mikel narrated.
"What...? it was she?" Wisdom asked out of surprise.
"Yeah, and for her own good, please you have to get her out of this place" Mikel replied.
While Wisdom quietly takes some time as he stares at the ground.
"What are you waiting for? I said you should go out there and take her out of this house" Mikel replied with a loud voice"
"I will but please calm down first before your temper goes on how you can't control it" Wisdom replied.
"I know, that's why I keep trying, am trying my best" Mikel replied.
"Yeah, you have to keep trying your best" Wisdom replied as he turns to walk away.
He opened the door and was about to step out but he turned back and go close to Mikel.
"Mikel that girl would make a good mate for you, she really loves you..."
"She loves you more than any other woman could do, she can make a better mate," Wisdom said to him.
"What are you saying? did you even hear me at all? I said that I killed her family!" Mikel shouted.
