PLANS TO ATTACK BLOOD MOON
During the meeting I chose the able bodied men that were going to accompany me for the attack, while the rest were to work from a distance and others from the meeting room . The maps was duplicated and enough to go round for everybody to study from now till tomorrow. Some spies were also sent to the blood moon estate, they were to report tomorrow morning on how things went there over night and tomorrow morning. No doubt that tomorrow's attack was going to be a dangerous one because, majority of the Blood moon lives in the estate so once they find out about their presence, they wouldn't hesitate to attack from different angles. That's why I wanted to ensure that we go into the leader's mansion without a lot of them noticing. After I was done, someone reminded me of the young boys I was going to be training. "Tell them to meet me at the field in twenty minutes" I replied, getting up from my chair and headed to my car. I drove slowly to the field, taking time to look at the surrounding, nothing has changed since I left to live alone after killing my dad. When it seemed like old memories were about to flush in, I shook mg head quickly and increased my pace.
By the time I got to the field, they were already there waiting for me. I noticed they were practising hand to hand combat among themselves and I smirked. At their age, I never wanted to learn all this, talk more of becoming a Mafia member nor leader. Dad had to force me in a hard way and sometimes I think killing mum was part of the hard way. His main motive was to make me hardhearted which worked the day he killed Elisa. They saw me and stopped what they were doing before greeting me. I restrained myself from smiling at their funny behavior. I trained them on how to shoot a gun, aiming their target perfectly without any mistake. Majority learnt fast and did well, while the rest had one problem or the other. I left them in the care of one of their trainers and left, giving them an instruction to keep on practicing. By the time I was heading back home, it was evening and everywhere was getting dark. I found myself passing the through the route to Early Height school, hoping to see Clara on the way but didn't until I got home.
On getting home, I was welcomed by my guard who was sitting outside like he had been waiting for me to get back. I looked at him suspiciously while he walked towards me. " He must have something to tell me" I thought while coming down from my car. I got down from my car and handed the key to one of the chauffeur for him to park my car properly. " Sir one of the spies we sent reported that, the blood moon are hosting a masked party tomorrow and I also got this invitation letter about an hour ago" I collected the the letter from him and read the context. The Blood moon were inviting our Mafia for their masked party. It was quite strange and suspicious, I wondered why they were inviting us, they must have known our plan to attack them tomorrow and wanted us to fall into a trap they were probably setting. For all I know, some of their spies were our member, that would be the only way they got to know about our plan. While I was heading to my room, I was lost in my thoughts contemplating on whether we should still attack tomorrow or another day. But if we postponed the date, it will give them the chance to attack is first. I opened my door and entered my room, walking slowly to my bed. Immediately I got to my bed, I buried my face in my pillow and screamed, it was quite frustrating because nothing was coming to my head at the moment." Yes!" I screamed after an idea came flashed in my head suddenly. I jumped out to my bed to get my phone and tell my guard about the plan, but I froze for a second when I saw a womanly figure at the head of my room sweeping. I looked closer before I reacted. It was Clara, so I didn't shout or react the way I intended to instead, I began to wonder how she got into my room without my permission. Moreover, my room was locked when I wasn't around so there is no way she could get in during that time. I walked over to her trying to keep an angry face even though I wasn't angry.
"How did you get in here?" I asked her. She turned to look at me with a surprising look on her face as she stopped what she was doing.
" What do you mean by how did I get in here sir? " She asked, with her two eyes fixed on mine, for a second I wanted to remove my eyes from hers' but it only make me look like a coward, so we kept on looking at each other while we talked.
" Are you asking me a question you dumbass? " I retorted loudly. The way I shouted frightened her a bit, but she pretended to be so courageous. " Answer my question now, before you would regret ever coming in here."
" You opened the door for me, when you got back. I was walking behind you the whole time but you didn't notice, even after I greeted you still didn't reply. When we finally got room, I stood by your door and asked you if I may come in which you nodded so I didn't "
" Enough!" I interrupted her, realizing that she was speaking the truth. Although I was lost in my thoughts, I vividly recall when I nodded to someone. I walked away from her with a bit of embarrassment, leaving my room entirely. When I finally got to my guard room and knocked loudly but didn't get any response, I knew he wasn't inside. On getting outside, I found him sitting on one the chairs in the garden, he was studying the map thoroughly. For a second, I didn't want to interrupt him but we needed to talk about another plan just incase the Blood moon are already aware of our coming. Before I got there he saw me and stopped what he was doing. " May I help you with anything sir? " He asked me but I didn't reply, instead I sat on the chair opposite him while he kept his eyes fixed on me, waiting anxiously for me to start talking.
" There would be a new plan but the old one still stands" I said to him and he listened attentively. I instructed him to send messages to our most trusted Mafia members, they were to come to the party individually, positioning themselves in different corners of the building. They were to be fully alert and taking notice of any movement by the Blood moon. The spies there would hide some ammunition in every corner too, it would be hard to find out that they are spies because, majority were females pretending to be maids. Another twenty of our men would also come individually but they won't come into the building, rather they were to stay outside, quite far from the building around the bushy area. The spies would also keep snippers and other ammunition for them there. Lastly the spies were to plant some explosives in every corner of the building where the party was to take place, the Leader of the blood moon apartment, the cells were they held some of our members captive and any possible place that was open for them to take us unaware.
Immediately I finished my guard smiled and kept on nodding his head while I left, I could trust him for getting my all my instructions carried out effectively. "Blood moon is a piece of cake" I said inaudibly while walking back to my room with my two hands in my pocket. Suddenly I remembered that Clara might still be in my room so I increased my pace, while climbing up the stairs. On getting to my room, I heard Clara mumbling, I couldn't hear a anything she was saying but I was sure she was talking. I leaned closer to the door to find out if I was going to hear anything but I didn't. After much effort of straining my ears just to listen to what she was saying, I still didn't hear anything so I opened the door. Clara immediately turned to look at me, she froze leaving her mouth agape. She was standing by my bed with her diary on her hand, I looked at her dumbstruck not knowing what to say, how was I supposed to explain to her on how her diary got to my bed, under my pillow.
