Chapter 86
An hour later, Killian and Jack walked into Brian’s mansion carrying bags of ammunition. Brian was glad to see that they were ready to battle and was quite assured that they would win the fight.
“Serah’s gone”, Brian said.
“It’s for the best, We can’t have her getting hurt considering the condition she is”, Killian said.
“Yes. So what’s the latest news?. To br honest, I expected Wilfred and his pack to have attacked since”, Brian said.
“All has been quiet from my source but let’s just be vigilant, I have a feeling he’s planning a surprise attack”, Jack said.
“Are the weapons here?”, Jack said.
“Yes, the ones we could carry are here while the much bigger ones are downstairs in the garage. We also parked two armor tanks too courtesy of your father’s ammos”, Killian said.
“That’s brilliant. I wish nothing happens to them, I’ll love to return as new as it is”, Brian said.
“Then just pray that this battle favors us. If not, you can kiss the tanks good bye”, Killian chuckled.
Brian didn’t take any offence in what be said because he knew that anything could happen in a battle. Those tanks were nothing compared to the thousands of lives they had just saved and he was glad he took that effort.
“Do you have any idea what he might be planning?”, Brian asked.
He made his way to the liquor cabinet to mix a drink for himself and his friends. In times like this, alcohol was the only thing that could calm his nerves down and right now, he needed as much as possible.
“No idea, I’m still talking with my source. As soon as there is something new, I’ll let you know”, Jack said.
Brian nodded, handing them glasses of whiskey he had poured for them. They drank silently as each stood with their own thoughts on the battle that was impending.
Just then, the unmistakable sound of gun fire wheezed through the air. Brian knew that Wilfred was here and there was no telling the amount of damage he could cause.
“Looks like we have company”, Jack said.
Brian nodded, grabbing his gun. He cocked it, ensuring that there were enough bullets in it that could cause damage to the enemies.
“Should we shift or save it for later?”, Killian asked.
“Let’s save it for later. Right now, let’s deal with them with the ammos we have”, Brian said.
Quietly, they made their way downstairs towards the sound of the gun fire. When they got there, Brian was happy to see that his security men were all ready for battle.
“Take positions, two by four”, Brian ordered.
Without another minute to spare, they took to the order as they each moved towards their designated point of attack.
“Oh damn!”, Killian said.
“What’s the matter?”, Brian asked.
He clutched his gun tightly, feeling the perspiration that clouded his face. Anytime he was in action, a lot of sweat could be seen around his chest and forehead area and this wasn’t an exception.
“Wilfred came with some of the army chief’s boys”, Jack said.
Brian snatched the binoculars from him, looking straight ahead from it. True to their words, they were right. He could see some of the men taking strategic positions all around the area and for a minute, Brian feared that they wouldn’t be able to defeat them.
“We have to go back and restrategize”, Killian said.
“There’s no time, we have to attack now”, Brian said.
“That would be suicidal Brian, I say we go back and plan again”, Jack said.
Quietly, they returned back in. When they were in, Brian dumped his gun on a nearby table as he downed a shot of whiskey at a go.
“Shit! I didn’t envision this would happen”, he said.
“Calm down while we think of a way forward”, Killian said.
“There’s no other thing we can do now but to call for backup from the guys in the next city. We have to pull all available resources if we’re to win this war against Wilfred”, Brian said.
“That’s going to take too much time”, Jack said.
“Do we have any other choice?”, Killian asked.
“No. Jack, call the guys down at the wharf, I need them here ASAP”, Brian ordered.
Jack nodded, picking up his phone just as more bullets rained down on the house. They took cover behind a huge wooden table Brian had purposely placed there before his friends came in. Jack barked orders at the reinforcement and soon, he confirmed that they were on their way.
“How soon before they get here?”, Brian asked.
“Twenty minutes”, Jack said.
At that moment, Brian’s double barreled door came down as some of the demon pack flooded into his living room. They destroyed everything they could find, all in a bid to locate where Brian and his friends were.
“Damn! They’re in”, Killian whispered.
“It’s now or never. We have to attack before our reinforcements come in”, Brian said.
He jumped out of his hiding place, shooting sporadically into the air. He was glad that his friends joined him and together, they laid off hundreds of demons who attempted to destroy them.
“That’s one group down”, Jack said.
Brian nodded as they returned back to their hiding place. Brian reloaded his gun as he offered prayers to the moon goddess for a successful battle.
“Reinforcements would be here in ten minutes”, Jack said.
“Brian, where are you? Come out and fight me”, a voice said.
Brian knew who that voice belonged to, it was Wilfred. Brian didn’t know how he gained access so fast into his mansion but one thing was sure, he would ensure that Wilfred never got out of here alive.
“How many minutes more Jack, I need them here before I face the scum bag”, Brian said.
Jack glanced at his watch, mentally calculating the time. He knew they would be here soon since they were one of the swiftest group he had ever dealt with.
“Three minutes boss”, Jack said.
Brian nodded, clutching his gun closer to his chest. He was so close to destroying Wilfred but he knew he had to do it with caution if he was to succeed.C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
“Alpha king, come out and fight me if you’re really a man”, Wilfred taunted.
Without thinking, Brian walked into the open, clutching his gun to his side. He chuckled to see Wilfred take a step back from the shock he got at seeing Brian. Brian knew that this would be the last stage of the battle and he was prepared till the very end.
