Chapter 36 Sooo solution

"Why would you have taken it this long" he said instead
Caro walked out from my room and stood beside me
"I know that you are behind this" Victor said angrily
He pointed at Caro
He might go extra mile when he gets angry
"Was it really Victor?" I asked
"Yes but he is gone" he replied
"How do you mean?" I asked rushing closer to Fred
"He dressed in a different way with some bags, I think he is traveling" he replied
"What?!" I asked not believing it
"Please Victor, don t go" I said running to my room because I was just wearing a short and a top
"What do you gain now?" Fred screamed from outside
Caro, knowing how his anger was, she ran into the room
I took out a skirt and wore it
At least, the top was better
I turned and Fred was really burning inside
"I told you to know the kind of friends you keep" Fred said
"Let s go first, please" I pleaded
"I don t want to see you here when I come back" Fred said before turning
I didn t bother to look at Caro again
We got outside and Fred drove off
"Why do you like keeping such friend?" Fred asked on our way
"She is part of the family" I replied
Caro wasn t really part of the family but she was really important
She has helped me a lot in the past
In the school
We arrived at Victor s house and I got down
I rushed to the gate
The gateman was already there
He opened the gate and I rushed in
"Victor isn t around" the gateman said making me to turn back
"Where is he?" I asked walking back to him
"He travelled but he said that I should tell to go and see something in the living room" he replied
I turned to the house and rushed there
I took the key from where he do keep it
I opened it and the paper was just right before me
I took it and it was boldly written
"TO THE LOVE OF MY LIFE ??"
I couldn t open it
I had to read it later
"Any information" that was Fred s voice from the back
I turned with tears in my eyes
"He is gone" I replied
My mind ran to checking him at the airport
"Let s go to the airport" I suggested still crying
"Do you know which one he was going with?" Fred asked
I couldn t control the tears that was rushing down
I wondered how long he would take
…..
…. Dorothy POV ??
At school, earlier that day
I called a meeting for the two available people
According to my Uncle, from the day David was possessed
That was when his days started counting
And so far, it has clocked 12 days and was left with 8 days making it 20days in total
Since Victor wasn t coming, we had to do it within our own power
No matter how
We concluded that the journey would be the next day
Even Bonny was there
Although he has nothing to offer
I got home and met with my Uncle
At least, I needed to tell him about our arrangement and he said that he also has some important things to tell me
He looked as if he was sleeping when I walked in
"Uncle" I called walking closer to him
He opened his eyes
"Dorothy"
"We are planning to go tomorrow" I said as I sat
"Good, like I said, I will tell you some certain things that the reader won t" he said while I nodded
"Firstly is the front entrance" he paused
"It is very dangerous, once you guys open it, an arrow will fly out from there and it will surely hit someone before it could stop" he added
"What if it hit something else apart from human being?" I asked because I was scared
"In case if you don t know, before the BROKEN TOMBSTONE will be sealed entirely, it will take about four human life before, one for Lucy, one for Gina and the other one for Mr Isaac"
"But you said four?" I asked
"Yes, the other man isn t replacing anyone, he will have to go as a result of what he has committed" he replied
."am confused here" I complained
"The man was a hand behind what happened 21yrs ago"
"So why is it taking life of others?" I asked
"Spirit heart isn t the same as ours" he replied
It was really confusing
"So, if the arrow hit one of us, will the tamer still die?" I asked to know if it was at that spot that Victor was destined to die
"Victor is already destined to die, so he would surely be among those three" he replied
"So, since he is not coming with us, how will it go?" I asked
"Maybe before the Tomb disappeared, he will also disappeared, wherever he is" he replied
There was no other option
"So from here to that area will take you few hours, then you guys will take boat which will take you guys the remaining day to get to the Tomb because a big river separated the main land from the Tomb" he said
"That river replace the ocean Lucy was thrown into" he added
"Who is this Lucy?" I asked because I was confused
"You will get the full story later from David" he replied
"Okay, but that river, do people normally cross it, as in to see the Tomb?" I asked
"No"
"There was no other boat that can pass on it"
"lots of people have tried using different boats but they ended up getting drown" he added
The river must be really strong
"So how can we get the boat, that we will use?" I asked
"Once you guys get there, all of you will have to stand before the river and a boat will appear" he replied
"About the arrow" I tried bringing it up
"You just have to comply with the reader, only her have the right to tell you guys about it and am sure that she won t"
"Am telling you about the arrow because am not going with you guys and if you should tell others, that means you will be the one that the arrow will get or better still, don t go"
"That means the arrow will have to find you here?" I asked really worried.
"No, it will be among you guys"
"And if it has to be you, the BROKEN TOMBSTONE will disappear and relocate to another area and that would cause another problem"
."because it has to be until another 10yrs, which means that the demons will still be moving around the world, tormenting souls" he explained
"That means one of us will have to die before the gate?" I asked
"Definitely or might live till you guys reach the main Tomb" he replied
"Another thing is that the book will automatically become blank" he said, confusing me more
"Each place you people get to, the reader will have to open the book and activities that will be carried out that place, will appear on the page, once you guys are done, that particular page will vanish" he added
This is too supernatural
"So how do we go about the Tomb without the other guy?" I asked
"Can we go with the leaf?"
."you can t, the leaf will only work on the river because you guys will have to experience lots of attack from the ones living in the river" he replied
"So if we go with the leaf, the ones in the river won t attack us?" I asked, to confirm
"Yes" he replied
"So, it will take us a full day to get to the Tomb itself?"
"Yes, and four days in the Tomb fighting the demons, with additional one day to see the Tomb, as in sealing it" he replied
Calculating it, we will be able to do it because the days left was eight days and the calculation was six days
Talking about that, the six days will be something because my Uncle could only stay for four days without the drink
"Am worried" I said changing my expression
"About what?"
."about you, we will spend six days there meanwhile you drug will be active only four days" I replied
"You don t have to worry, am only worried about you guys, just hoping you guys will be able to do that" he said instead
"Why can t we tell someone to come and stay with you?" I suggested
"It will only endanger the person, I was supposed to die before now"
"I don t want that suggestion because the demons might attack anyone that would come here to stay with me" he added
"We can still keep one of the leaf" I suggested
"The leaf is only four and all of you need it in other to cross the river, remember that Jason is already with one, David s own was dropped by him that day he was completely possessed, leaving only two, which are for you and that reader" he replied
"So how can we do with the demons when we get inside the Tomb because you said that we can t go inside the Tomb with the leaf and there are lots of demons inside there?" I asked
"That s why the other guy is mostly needed" he replied
"But, don t you think that the book might give us solution when they attack?" I asked
"I can t tell" he replied but since the book was like that, it would definitely tell us
"And don t give that reader the book until you guys get there" he added while I nodded
"Am still with it" I said
"Okay, so finally, about David"
"How can we take him in that condition?" I asked
"Check my cupboard" he said pointing at it
I rushed to it and opened it
"The bottle with red cover, bring it and the other one with the black cover" he said
I couldn t believe that he has all those things there
I took them and walked back to where he was
"You have to look for a means to trick him, so that he will take the one with red cover"
"That red one will knock him out of life for 5hrs, so you guys need to be calculative because if he woke up before you get there, he might kill all of you except you because he is already in love" he said smiling
"Don t start first" I said smiling as well
"When he gets knocked out, you guys will then carry him to the car that will take you there, Just be calculative, you have to be giving it to him after every five hours"
"The black one is meant to bring him back in just few minutes but that will be when you guys got to the Tomb itself" he added
"So will he be able to seal the Tomb in that condition?" I asked
"No, behind the Tomb, you guys will see something in a black and red bottle, give it to him and the demon will jump out from his body" he replied
"But you have to be ready to engage on a fight with the strongest demon that has ever exist" he added
"Must it be me?" I asked
"Yes, because none of them can see demons except you and the other guy" he replied

…. Jason POV ??
I was in my room thinking about how the following day s journey would go
It will surely going to be tough because I still don t trust Jenny
Dorothy hasn t yet told us how we are going to get David and there was no longer any killing from him lately
I just hope he was fine
Lots of thoughts was what I was battling with
I remembered that COP Kelly wants to get David and he was also working with Jenny
That means they could possibly want to use this opportunity to catch David before he could be free from the demon
"No, we need to stop them" I said to myself and got down from my bed
It was already evening but I still had to see Dorothy that evening before it would be too late
I drove straight to her house and alighted
I knocked at the gate and she came out not too long
"Jason, what are you doing here by this time?" She asked
"Let me in first" I said
She opened the gate and I walked in
I sat on the chair before the house
She locked the gate before walking to where I was
"What is the problem?" She asked
"How are we going, about tomorrow and David?" I asked, to start from there
"My Uncle gave me some drugs that will knock David out for five hours, so we can take him" she replied
"Have you told Jenny where David is?" I asked back
"Not yet" she replied
"Better, I have a plan" I said
"Which plan?"
"Have you forgotten that Jenny is working with COP Kelly?"
"I thought about that but I think that she can t betray us now" she replied
"You trust easily, they will surely use this opportunity" I said trying to talk something into her mind
"So should we count her out?" She asked
"No"
."what then can we do?" She asked
"Firstly, where exactly are we going?" I asked
To know how to make my planning
"My Uncle said that it is in the next Town and it will take us few hours to get there" she replied
"But the problem is who will drive" she added
"Don t worry, what I need is the address and forget the rest" I said
"Okay" she responded
"So, I want us to make it this way" I started
"We will use my car for the journey, but I will bring two by tomorrow, I will drive one while Bonny drive the other one, we will go first and get David, then you, David and Bonny will leave but will wait for me at the George junction, while I will leave with the other car to meet Jenny"
"My plan is to brainwash her when I got there, I will lie to her that the place where we are going, it won t require gunshot, otherwise, we will all die because am sure that COP Kelly would surely come"
"And also that place, it requires only five of us to go to, in fact leave it for me" I said
"I will do my best and am sure that she will comply" I added
What I needed was just time to think about it
??????
….. Jenny POV ??
COP Kelly had called me that evening to meet him at the restaurant
He always like face to face business
To avoid mistake
I drove straight to the restaurant and met him at his spot
"You already know why I called you here" he said while I smiled
"She hasn t yet told me about where we could see David but the movement will be by tomorrow"
"I will just call you when we are with David" I added
"This is keeping long, am not comfortable anymore" he complained
"It is not like am comfortable as well but I don t really know what to do" I responded
"I will be expecting your call" he said while I nodded
"Trust me" I replied
??????
…. Bonny POV ??
The following morning, as Jason said
I dressed up and took a cab to his house
He made it in a way that will look as if we were going on driving competition
Mr Luke was suspicious that he asked us what was happening
When Jason tried lying, he told him that he was already aware of it
That we were going to free David who he referred to as a monster
"We aren t leaving until evening time, we only want to know who will drive us among the two of us" Jason has told his father
He was able to convince him before we drove off
He took the lead while I drove from behind
We drove straight to Dorothy s house and parked
We both got down
"Are we really going to wait till evening?" I asked as we got closer to the gate
"You supposed know that I can t tell my Dad the truth" he replied
"We are leaving already" he added
He knocked at the gate and we waited for Dorothy
??????
….. Dorothy POV ??
It was the day
I couldn t stop worrying about my Uncle but he insisted that I shouldn t worry
"When you get David, try taking this side before going because this route is the easiest way" he had said
"Why don t you tell me now?" I asked because I don t know if it would be another problem coming here with David
"I want to be sure that you did it right" he said while I smiled nodding
Just then, someone began to knock at the gate
"Uncle please don t die" I said almost crying
"Then you guys have to be fast in sealing up the Tomb" he said
I nodded
I walked out with some food stuffs
When I got out, it was Jason and Bonny
I smiled
I dropped the stuff on the floor and opened the gate
"Why all this food?" Bonny asked
"Am still angry with you, in case you don t know"
Truly, I was still angry with him
"That s by the way, we are to spend six days in this journey, so that s why I brought this food stuffs and snacks" I added
"Six days?" Bonny asked
"Which car are we taking?" I asked referring to Jason
There was no point in replying Bonny
"This" he said and pressed something on the remote control he was holding
The boot automatically opened
I puts them inside it but the food in the front side for the lunch before we will get there
I locked the gate
"Let s go" I said
"What about your Uncle?" Jason asked
"He said that he will be fine" I replied trying to keep a smiling face
I got inside the car and Jason did the same
Bonny got inside the other one and we drove off
"If we are going to stay up to that, how are we going to know?" Jason asked
"It is not really necessary but we can use our wrist watch" I said holding mine that was on my wrist
Soon, we got to the area and parked
I took out a meat and a cup of blood, then add drops of the red covered bottle
David doesn t normally stay at that cave again but my Uncle gave me a trick to use
We got close to the cave
"You guys should stay here" I said while they complied
I walked more closer
I first of all dropped the cup containing blood and the drink
I walked back
A little bit far and threw up the meat
It landed not too far from the cave and the cup
We waited for some minutes
"Are you sure that he is still here?" Jason asked
"Let s wait a little longer" I said
Just then, we heard David roaring as he jumped out from nowhere
"David" Bonny called
David roared and rushed the meat
He got it down immediately
Tears were just forming in my eyes
He raised his head inhaling which means he was perceiving something
He looked towards our direction and jumped a little bit before stopping
He looked down at the cup and held it up
He pushed everything inside his mouth and threw away the cup roaring again
"Are you sure this will work?" Jason asked
David looked at our direction and started jumping with a great speed
"Call his name" that was all that was coming inside my mind
What my Uncle told me before
"Oh my God, he is coming!" Bonny screamed and ran out from where we were hiding
Jason did the same
…..
…… Dorothy POV ??
Continuation
It was at that point that I understand that life comes first
The way Jason and Bonny took to their heel was somehow funny tho
I stepped out from where I was hiding with my mind repeating what my Uncle had told me
I was busy watching him and was timing it, when I would call him by his name
Suddenly, his speed decreases
"David" as I called it, he fell down
I widened my eyes looking at him properly
He didn t make any move
I turned to face Jason and Bonny who were much far from me
"It works!" I shouted
"Are you sure!?" Bonny shouted back
I didn t reply that, I turned and walked closer to David
I touched him but he didn t make any move
"Are you sure that he is not playing with us?" Bonny asked as they walked closer
"Am sure it works" I said
"Remember, we don t have time and I don t know what Jenny is planning" Jason said
"How are we going to do about him?" Bonny asked referring to David
"He can t walk, we need to carry him" I replied
Jason nodded looking at Bonny
"Oh no, not me" Bonny said waving his hand
"You get to be serious dude, we don t have time" Jason said
He was really cool
I prayed he gets someone good for himself
"Let me confirm it" Bonny said walking closer to David
He pushed him and David turned over as he roared a little
Bonny almost ran
I couldn t help it but to smile
We were able to take David out from the desert and put him inside the car
I thought he would be smelling but surprisedly, he wasn t
I don t know why
"You guys can wait for us at the George junction" Jason said
"You guys need to be fast as well" Bonny said
We drove to my house and went inside for the last meeting
"You don t need to delay" my Uncle said immediately I got in
"Check the second cupboard" he added
I rushed to it and opened it
Tears was already forming
"Take that, it is called TP gum" he said while I nodded as I took it
It looks strange
"During the final operation, a demon will show up, as she walks, she will be changing from a demon face to a young lady face" he said
"Am not getting it" I said because I was confused
"You will get to understand it when the time comes" he said
"That demon was casted out of Lucy s womb after she died"
"She died with a baby in her womb?" I asked
"Yes, so as they casted her out, she was kept in a forest, after some days, a queen mother took her and also wanted to use her for her own work"
"So, she gave her a human body for her to be able to go around with other human being" he added
My mind ran to the demon that normally work with me before
She must be the one because she do transform into a lady
"So what am I supposed to do?"
"This TP gum is supposed to be given to her by someone who loves her and that will be when the Tomb began to seal, because during the sealing of the Tomb, every single demon will be gone and gone forever"
"This TP gum will have to kill the demon in her and she will be left with the human body" he added
"So, how can we find someone that loves her?" I asked
"Solution always come when the time comes, just be calculative" he replied
That was the third time he was telling me that
"Don t forget to take the book and the leaf, maybe when you guys get there, you will find a solution on how to overcome the demon in there" he added
"I will see to that" I replied
"Don t lock the gate" he said
"Why, it will be dangerous" I said really worried
"I just want people to be able to see my body when am dead" he replied as tears couldn t stop flowing down from my eyes
