are they talking about? And what thing is ready? I knew this was getting weirder by the minute, I wondered. So whatever mischievous pranks they are going to play on me, I will use my skill against them, hahaha. Ex-Director Ravenous, Leona’s great-granduncle, told us that an agent is always prepared at all times,’ I wondered. “Alright, Leona it is decided. I will go with you so that I might help you out. Besides, it has been a long time since I set foot in Africa,” I replied. “It is settled then, Mr. Mvuela,” interrupted Rome. "Rome, the man, thank you very much,” I said. “Yes, yes but Mr. Mvuela. I am the one who should respect you. Because whatever mission you are ordered to, you always come back successfully. And complete your mission assigned without failing. I hope you won’t fail us this time? Anyhow, I have decided to come with my daughter, but I will go first. Everyone is obeying ex-Director Ravenous's biding which is to go with his great-grandniece and Agent Mvuela. And we are giving them respect, ``said Rome. 

Both Rome and Caesar exchanged eyes.  Ex-Agent Dr. Leona Du Dacor we are ready? Because we have packed everything including you know what? He—he—he,” both men snickered.  ‘Weirder! These two men are. And what kind of a person they are talking about? And what thing is ready? I knew this is getting weirder by a minute, I wondered.  I shook my head from thought truly and greeted them moreover with a smile. “Nice meeting you Agents!” I said. "Nice to meet you too Mr. Mvuela,” Caesar said. Stretching out his hand to shake my hand as I stretch out mine. He immediately grabbed it and squeezed it painfully. “Ow, you man!” I grumbled. He let go triumphantly with a smirk on his face. ‘Well, truly Rome and Caesar were skillful men and big. Like people always say ‘the bigger they are the harder they fall’, I thought. They were wearing soldiers’ clothes just like Leona and Gideon. ‘Oh man, I think I have this feeling that something bad will happen to me, however, whatsoever it is I am ready, I wondered. Elsewhere the ex-Director and his men arrived in the vanished within nearby thick forest out of sight with their engine boat. Back to Arizona every other man and I climb into the ship. Now we were impatiently waiting for Leona, Rome, and Caesar to come on board. Believe me, they took quite a long time. Inside Leona and her gangs were planning something mischievous.

 "Listen up, boys! When we arrived in this part of the riverbank, you had to hold Agent Mvuela in his sleep. Tying him up into the deep darkest soundproof warehouse. After that, we are going north to meet my cousin because I have an email message saying—‘he had finally found the ancient key of the Curse Golden Palace. “Yay, we will be rich boys, except Mvuela, or else he will be suspicious about us, and remember boys don’t forget!” Leona said. Rome and his twin younger brother nod. All three of them hit the backyard deck of the river and discovered themselves climbing aboard. “Thank—goodness, it’s about time you arrived, Leona. What’s kept you late?” I snapped. “So—sorry, Mvuela, for keeping you waiting. So are you boys ready?” Leona asked. “You bet!” We said.  With the captain of the ship switching the engine which roars into an explosion sound. We lately discovered ourselves hitting the watery road to the Zambezi. “Boohoo, Zambezi here we come!” I shouted. As the salty air and water splashed on my face making Leona and the others laugh at me.  I just looked at Leona with a grin as she stared back at me for the longest time.

CHAPTER FIVE

 

After that, she looked away with a sad expression into the far distance of many salty glasses of water. ‘I am so—sorry, Mvuela, my love for you is so deep, but I need to sacrifice my emotions and I want to be rich. And I believe you love me too, thought Leona. Well, of course, I was deeply in love with her to the point that I couldn't have the strength to hold it any longer. “Leona?” I called. “Yes, Mvuela? What is it?'' asked Leona. “I have something to tell you. Agents, can you please excuse us? This is between me and Leona, please?” I pleaded. All three of them smirk viciously. “Well, since all of them are gone, what is it that you want to say to me?” Leona shouted. “Whoa—whoa, just calm down, Leona, it will be quick. Well—well, I just want to tell you that I really—loved you! Are you happy?” I said. Dr. Leona Du Dacor’s eyes widened in disbelief. “Well, that’s—that’s good, Mvuela,” Leona gulped. “Uh, are you okay, Leona?” I asked. “Uh-um, yes—yes, I am fine. It’s just that I was about to tell you about having feelings for you. I have feelings at first sight.” Leona confessed. Whereas I blinked for a few minutes. “Phew, it feels good to take out the feelings you've been holding for the longest time. Isn’t it that right, Leona?” I murmured. “Yeah, I believe that is the truth but if you excuse me. I need to go to bed early,” Leona said. “Of course, see you tonight,” I said. Leona walked towards the downstairs of the huge ship, while I remained alone staring into that even sky. I stared at my watch and I discovered it to be seven o’clock. ‘What? We are already in the Zambezi, but we spent only thirteen hours in the watery passway. Um, oh well, it doesn’t matter because I can’t wait to meet the people of Zambezi tonight, I wondered.

 Entering the exit of the ship’s deck and rushing downstairs always to my room. As I entered the room, the suitcase of my clothes was already there. After having done lost in thought, I went down to the ship to sleep. So, without a second thought, I dropped on a comfortable mattress and was already dozing off. One hour later around eight o’clock, Leona, Rome, Caesar, and Ravenous walked into my room. “My—my, what do we have here? If it isn’t Agent Mvuela, it seems like it's time for action!” Ravenous shouted. I woke up with sleepiness holding me like a heavy load. “What are you talking about? And what action?” I murmured. Leona came and punched me in the stomach, as I grunted in pain. “Leona—Leona, what’s the meaning of this? What game are you playing?” I squealed. Waking up fully with consciousness, but I was too tired to fight Leona. And I didn’t have any more strength in my body.  “Well—well. It seems like the mightiest Agent has a weak spot too, huh boys?” Leona mocked. Leona—Leona, it can’t be? You—you, can’t believe this! You traitor—why did you do this too—ugh!” I grunted. Because Leona kicked me into my stomach once again where I fell unconscious. Moments later overheating, sputtering noise of the rain, and rushing leaking of the water, I discovered myself within the half-dark building, tied to a chair with electric wires amid a watery puddle. I was covered in my blood and weak with aching pains all over my body where I wasn’t breathing properly.

I scanned around the place which gave a creep out of me, but I wasn't afraid, however, I wondered what kind of world I was in. LEO RAVENOUS/LEGION, ageless, a renowned American treasure hunter man and great-grand-uncle to Leona. He has brunette puffy hair, a red Christmas sweater, a thick khaki trenchcoat, suit pants, and army brown boots. He’s dysfunctional into a man in his thirties and truly a muscular man, with superhuman strength, skill in martial arts hand-to-hand combats.    Where I picked up a worn-out pen while both of my legs were killing me. Breaking free I stood up, penetrated Leo’s throat with a pen who squealed in pain. The other unleashed their weapons and was about to open fire but I clobbered one of them in the stomach as I held her hand to prevent her from shooting. I open fire with their own medicine against them who screams in affliction. I was holding the revolver which I had it along, which opened fire on the incoming opponent but nothing happened to her. AZAZEL/LEGION, ageless, cute pale-skin Native-American woman. She has brown eyes, puffy hair, wears a hoodie grey dress-like trenchcoat, dark green army boots. Azazel has superhuman strength, skill in hand-to-hand combat. Azazel chuckled without any pain as the weapon turned into a flaming color revolver. ``Fool! Do you think you can kill me with man-made weapons?" Azazel roared. "Sure I can see that you cannot die, but let's see if I can murder you my Word of God," I answered. I was panting with gunshots echoed through the soundproof dark warehouse room. She would charge after me, but I opened fire with a bullet from my weapon. Azazel wailed in pain, collapsed to the floor, and breathed her last. With the others turning into bolden headsmen in dark garments, yet I killed them all one by one without holding back. 

   Others who remained turned into the same bald head men and women in black garments with pale skin tone. I was kind of surprised by what to call them now. Moments ago they were normal humans, but now they are peculiar beings. I killed them all one by one without holding back. All squealed in agony as their bodies collapsed to the watery earth. "My my my. Howdy, down there. How are you kicking? Awesome, excellent, or marvelous?" I signed. Leo grunted and gagged in affliction. "Mean with a pen in your neck. It's such an awesome view. Don't you think so?" I asked. Leo gagged and stuttered with fear. "Leo. My friend never threatens my life ever again." I chuckled. Leo was stuttering and muttering something. I didn't understand what he was saying as sober music sounded, where I scoffed. "How dare you threaten my peaceful life! Never try that again, am I understood?" I roared. I opened fire with gunshot.

 

CHAPTER SIX

 

Leo squealed in agony, as a car screeched outside in the distance, and he cried in pain, with a zapping flaming light flickering in his mouth and burning his eyes to ashes. I left his corpse behind burnt wings on the watery ground. Seven years later after that incident I find myself in a house in Washington. Rain was pouring cats and dogs outside. Lightning cracked, thunder rumbled, and
