PHILANDRA: AWAKENING: CHAPTER FIVE: EVOLUTION: PART I

Renee is sleeping in her room, she keeps tossing and turning on her bed, she opens her eyes to find herself standing in the middle of a thick black forest, the sky is empty, no moon, no stars just void with darkness, she starts walking cutting her way through the bush paths.
"Hello! Is anyboday here?" she calls out but no one answers.
The moon starts becoming visible like a ball of fire.
"Finally I can see the way" she said to herself
But the moon starts getting bigger and bigger, as it grew her back starts to hurt, she falls to the ground fighting the pain, she feels the wings coming out of her back, burning bright red like it has been set on fire, the moon still keeps getting bigger, she feels herself turning, she screams out loud and wakes up from the nightmare panting and sweating profusely, she takes her phone and dials a number
"Hello...Ms Dawn...I am so sorry I know it is late, can you come by my house and pick me on your way to school...okay I appreciate it, thanks"
She hangs up


"Are you sure you don't want me to drop you at school" Ms Rhodes said
They are both in the kitchen, Renee is  just rounding up her breakfast
" I will be fine mom, she is just my teacher not a serial killer"
"Did you get into trouble?"
"No! You worry to much, bye"
She goes to the front door, opens it to find Ms Dawn outside
"I was just about to ring the door bell, is your mother in?"
"She is, can we go now, please"
They both walk to the car, open the door and get in, she starts the ignition and drive away
"Okay what is it, start talking"
"I had the worst nightmare, worst than all my nightmares"
"I know, it was not a nightmare, but a reminder" Ms Dawn said
"A reminder of what?"
"Cycle day is this friday, it is the 9 of 100th day of your evolution on earth, that moment the moon is lethal for us " she said
"This friday is a full moon"
"Which makes it more dangerous, you have to, you must stay indoors a through, tell the rest"
"I am not sure I will ever be prepared or comfortable with the craziness that comes with all of this"
"You had better because after the full moon your embed will be complete meaning you can transform into a full eagle, don't worry you are a beauty"
They reach the school, Renee is deep in her thoughts

Dr Henry is in his office when Tamuno comes in.
"Can I talk to you?" she said
"of course, please do sit down"
She sits
"I wanted to ask about the file you gave me to sign, I have been so busy lately so I
couldnt go over it, is it okay if I go over it again, I know I have already signed it I just want to know what I signed"
"Hmm do I detect a shred of doubt? I will never get you to sign anything illegal if that is what you are indirectly trying to ask me"
"Right, I am just clearing the air, as you know this hospital has a record of illegal activities, I strongly abhor infact I loathe it! I wont think twice to take down anyone who tries it again" she said
"Are you sure there isn't a problem miss, because this sounds like a threat"
"Just take it as a friendly advice, colleague to colleague, okay"
"Okay, I will keep that in mind , just read the next paper work I send before you hassle me again"
"Hassle? that's a strong word, well forget it"
She stands and leaves


"Yinka is still watching Yedire when Amaka comes in
"Oh my God! I am so sorry, I should have gotten here sooner" she goes over to were she lay
"How is she?"
"Still in a coma, she had concussion it was very bad"
"You should go home, you look like you haven't slept in days, I will stay and take care of her" she said
"Have you seen Idris?"
"No I haven't, not since they broke up why do you ask?"
"He left with her last night, he interrupted our date, she didn't want him to make a scene so she left with him, but she was the only one in her car when they found her, maybe he left in his own car"
"Idris doesn't have a car, that mofo sure as hell won't go in a taxi, he will force the keys from her hand, he is too controlling and she let's him control her" Amaka said
"I don't care about that dude, I just want her to get better, have you tried reaching out to her parents?"
"No I couldn't, Yedire is adopted, her foster parents are divorced, her mum lives in Texas with her step dad, her dad is always travelling, they just give her anything she wants except their attention"
"Well then, it is up to us, we will manage this situation well, I will be back soon in case she wakes up, tell her I've been here"
"No problem I will"

"Okay I get all the rules, I am ready if you need me" he said
"Good, I am glad we are all getting along" she said
"So what do we do? What is the next step?" Meredith said
"For now you will all go to school as normal sixteen year old's till we figure out. the next, threat or ally, remember we should all stick together"
"Thanks for being there for us, after I triggered the whole thing" Renee said
They all come out of her car, she drives away

LAME RED: SEASON TWO: EPISODE SEVEN: GAME OF THRONES: CHAPTER ONE: BLIND SPOT

Yinka is sleeping on the chair beside the hospital bed, someone shoves him gently, he opens his eyes to see Tamuno standing above him, Yedire is still unconscious.
"Dr Tamuno, so nice to see you" he yawns loudly
"How long have you been here?" she said
"Since last night, I don't want to leave , I want to be here when she wakes up" he said
"You still have to leave. I spoke with Dr Pamela she will be unresponsive in a long while, she survived a very dangerous auto crash, most people don't come out of it alive" Tamuno said
"I just want to be here, I just feel like she has been through a lot"
"I understand, but you have a life, you have school, you can't just press pause, you should get back to it"
"It is just law school, I don't have week long classes for now except I have to go to court" he said
"What about her? Doesn't she have anyone you can call?"
"I called her friend, she will be here soon"
"Well if she comes, you have to go home, freshen up, at least handle your breathe, I practically have to hold mine each time you yawn"


Mike presses the door bell at Mandy's, she opens the door, he comes in and sits down
"So why was I summoned this early? Did you get into any more trouble with Adaeze?"
"No, but I am about to have some serious issues with her" she said raged
"Calm down, what is the problem?"
"What is your take on one faking his/her own death?"
"I know it is a crime punishable by law, especially if the person is insured, why do you want to know?" he said
"My father is alive"
"Your what? I thought he was among the government entourage their jet burnt to ashes, no one survived the crash"
"That was what I thought, but apparently we buried an empty coffin so what do we know" she said
"But...how do you know all this?"
"I hired a private detective to look into Adaeze, I needed something to get her off my back completly, I got more, she has been probing me because of my father, she thought I went to London because of him, she has facts that he is there" she said
"Slow down....but why? Why is she so interested in finding your dad?"
"I don't know, I am just so confused" she slumps on the chair looking downcast
"Well I guess it is time to come clean, you need to tell your friends why you were in London, no more lies, no more secrets, so. they can help you face Adaeze, and then you can get to find out what she knows" Mike said
"You are right, It is time to tell it all"

"I never knew getting you to dinner wont be hard, I would have tried right there in the club"
Yinka and Yedire are in a restaurant having dinner and chatting
"Really? You would have recieved a slap instead" Yedire said
"Are you always this direct with actions?  Because I am getting scared"
"You shouldnt be, you have not seen the worst part"
They both laugh
"So tell me, what tribe?"
"I can not believe you are still going to ask me that" she said
"A little inquisition wont hurt"
"I am Igbo, partly south east, south south, my mum is Bayelsa, that is were the name came from" she said
"So what does it mean?"
"A good woman"
"Are you good then?"
"God! You are damn inquisitive, that is enough questioning for one night"
Suddenly a young man walks up to them
"I knew it! When you stopped picking my calls, so just few days after our break up you moved on quickly, so you have been cheating on me Yedi!" he said, people in the restaurant start looking at them
"You are creating a scene Idris, I was not cheating on you! So you traced me here?"
"You are leaving with me this instant!"
"Hey man, calm down! Wetin be your own sef" Yinka stands to defend Yedire
"Yinka its fine, I will handle it, can we just go" Yedire stands to leave with Idris
"What are you doing? You are leaving with him?"
"I am really sorry, thank you I had a nice time"
They both leave

Mandy is in her apartment, the door bell rings
"Just a sec!"
She goes over, opens the door to
find Mr X standing outside.
"How the hell did you find my apartment?"
"I am a private detective remember,  I found something, the questuion is, do you want to you use it?" he said
"What sort of a silly question is that? Of course I want to use anything that will take that bitch out of my office"
"Well I warned you"
He hands the envelope over to her
"Have a nice night rest"
He leaves. Mandy shuts thre door, she sits down on the couch and brings out the contents in the envelope
"Oh my God! Dad!"


Yinka rushes into the hospital panting, he drags the nurse at the counter
"Where is she! You made the call, where is she!"
"Young man calm down or I will sue for assault!"
"What is going on here?"
A young woman approaches them
"I am sorry, but I was told that a friend of mine had an accident, her name is Yedire"
"Oh the girl, I am Dr Pamela, I am handling the case, she was lucky to have survived, the car was pretty bashed up, we retrieved her phone and your number was the last she dialed" the doctor said
" Can I see her now?" Yinka said
"I am sorry, at least not now"
"What about the guy, is he okay?"
"We didnt bring in any guy, those that found her specified she was the only one in the vehicle, just wait here in the lobby, I will let you know if there is progress"


They say dont go digging for bones., you might find a dead body. Things surely have a way of going wrong when we least expect it, but with friends and those who truely care, they will guide us every step of the way" To be continued .

PHILANDRA: AWAKENING: CHAPTER FOUR: THE CLAN : PART III

"Meredith and Renee are at cheer practice
"So how do you find out about Gasturix, remember Ms Dawn said you have to believe in your instincts and what you feel" Meredith said
"You seem to sound okay with all of this, before you thought you were just a normal person now you just found out and was also able to see by that bitter potion you reincarnated, is it not weird to you?" Renee said
"Actually I thought about it for a while you know, if I can live with the fact that one day I can turn into a full fledged unicorn, but it is my destiny I just look forward to it, both past and present"
"Hey dweebs! Are you both going to chat all day or watch me do the new routine?" Alexis said to them
"Sorry princess" Meredith said
"Gather around girls, this is the routine we will do at the annual cheer competition"
The music starts, she begins to show off some cool dance moves
"Mer, you know the cool part about being a Putriach is we have some tricks up our sleeves, abolviíère"
Alexis starts messing up her dance moves, the girls start laughing
"If that is what we will do, then we have lost already" Karen a girl in the squad said
"That is enough, practise over Karen go shove up some pizza from your fathers shack into your wild mouth!"
"That was awesome, you should teach me some of that" Meredith said

"So you just arrived out of the blues and start asking if I am okay? Is your boss already being tough on you?"
Ego is still standing outside Beenie's apartment, he is holding on to the door
"Seriously are we going to talk like this? You are not going to let me in?" Ego said
"I read your interesting article about the minister, guess you are about the fame now, Yewande is lethal, she is using you to get what she wants" he said
"And you are telling me this now because? Why didnt you tell me before? I told you she offered me a job you pretended like it wasnt any of your business, why now?"
"I didn't tell you because I thought you will be wise enough to reconsider, I was wrong"
"Okay that is enough, I came here to know how you were doing , now you have managed to turn everything on me, you only do that when something is wrong with you, what of Wale?" she said
"Ego dont you get it, you lost your priviledges asking about our welfare when you joined our rival, right now there is a line you should not cross so this conversation is over" he said
"Fine! At least I tried so whatever that is wrong with you I hope you sort it out yourself!"


Tamuno is in her office going through some files when a woman walks in
"Ah Dr Tamuno, you never rest, you are too young to over work yourself" she said
"Mrs Jones, how are you? How is the bank job"
"Good actually, I came for my usual check up, with cancer in the air one has to be extremely cautious, and it seems like the hospital is doing very well for itself"
"I pray, they didnt pay us last month, it is almost month end still no payment" Tamuno said
"That is odd, the new medical director Dr Henry came to the bank to make some transfers, he transferred from the hospital account to another, your signature was there" Mrs Jones said R
"What! I never authorised any bank transfer, how much was it?"
"Uh! Sorry I believe I have said enough already, you know bank policy, I dont want to loose my job"
"Damn! Please just say how much, I promise to proceed with caution"
"It was 29 million"
"Oh my lungs! That is enough to pay the entire staff, and my signature is on it! I knew his perky accent and cute face was too good to be true, what is going on? there are more criminals in this town than in prison!" Tamuno said devastated
"Dr I will be on my way, no matter what please just leave me out of it, I beg you my family survives with my salary" Mrs Jones said
"Dont worry, I know exactly what to do"

Mandy is parked at a remote area, she is in her car waiting when someone opens the door and gets in
"God! you scared me" she said
"sorry just trying to be discrete as possible" Mr X said
"So what did you find? The bitch is choking me up and I have had enough"
"It was almost impossible to dig up something but I think I am close. she covers her tracks very well"
"It is expected, she calls me a snake well, pot meets kettle, let me see"
He hands the files over to her
"That is all I could find for now, I will dig deeper if you up the pay" he said
"You are both shady and greedy"
She brings out money from her bag and throws it at him
"Let me make you a deal, you will get more where that came from if you can get me something more chaotic that will make her crawl to her knees and beg for me to stop and I wont, the tiger has been asleep, but guess what? I am wide awake, nobody messes with a Lawson and go free"

"I cant believe I am sitting here right now"
Ego is in Ejiro's office, she is starring at him with pure hate in her eyes
"I believe you felt obligated to do so"
"I dont feel obligated to anything, why did you call me here?"
"How is Simi?"
"You lost the right to ask me that a long time ago, you can ask her yourself"  Ego said
"Well let me get straight to the point, when you came to my church, the first time I saw you, I felt something in my heart, which tells me to tell you that you have a friend in trouble who could possible be in grave danger" Ejiro said
"Really? That is all you've got? I am so out of here"
"It is not your girlfriends or your office friends, it is someone you have known , someone you used to work with"
"I dont care if you have googled my life or something but I am not falling for this mumbo jumbo! Have a nice day in your usual trance or whatever, Silas Marner!"
Ego leaves the office.

"So I am here to inform you all that your mid terms is next week, if you have not been studying this is your chance to study hard and up your grades"
Ms Dawn is addresing the class as she paced round the room
"She doesnt look like a messenger to me" Meredith whispers to Renee
"If you dont keep it down we will have detention to worry about and Alexis after" Renee said
"I am freaking out here after you called me Remora or whatever I need answers like right now"
"Do you have anything to share with the class Meredith" Ms Dawn said
"Uh... no"
"Really okay what did I say last?"
"Sorry I was just telling her my dog died"
The whole class go wild with laughter
"Yea it was the best puppy in the world but it didnt even know its own self before fading away into oblivion" Meredith said
"Touche I will see you in detention, including you Renee, class dismissed"
The class stands to leave, Alexis goes over to where they are
"Well you both cant seem to get out of trouble, guess where you both are starting off today? At the bottom of the pyramid, dont be late" she leaves. Xavier walks towards Renee stares at her for a moment and leaves the class.


Renee and Meredith are both sitting in the class waiting for Ms Dawn so they can start detention
"Well she better come, thought owls are not late"
"We are not, we keep track of time Remora"
Ms Dawn walks into the class
"So you know she is Remora, I have a feeling this is not detention" Renee said
"How come you knew me and didnt say a thing?" Meredith said
"Trust me I was surprised to see your face in this life, you never existed in the other thats when I knew someone is altering the actual spell, it was supposed to be just you and Gasturix, but the spell is changing and I wonder who else starts to exist" ?Ms Dawn said
"Then you know Gasturix, is he here? in the school"
"That is left for you to figure out, right now we have a lot to worry about because we will have more problems if Martus starts existing"

LAME RED: SEASON TWO: EPISODE SIX: UNDER PRESSURE: CHAPTER TWO: STARTING OFF

Adaeze is addresing people in the office when Mandy comes in.
"That will be all for now" they all stand and leave
"Did a meeting just happen? Right now? In my absence?" Mandy said
"What else did you think happened? A party? Oh it was a meeting sorry the invitation did not reach you" Adaeze said
"When is this probe going to be over? Because I cant stand here and watch you call the shots in my firm"
"Your firm? Please you are already loosing,  help me help you,  just tell me what you were doing in London,  your punishment will be less severe" Adaeze said
"You cant keep invading my privacy because of one silly mistake I made, look I get it, everyone gets it, I hurt you, why are you still being pained about it?"
"I am being pained because Mandy is the only one who deserves to be pitied as usual while the rest pays for what she has done, typical daddy's little girl, your dad made the way for you after law school why the rest of us had to fight tooth and nail, just know that I am close to finding what happened in London and my guts tell me it will ruin your career forever, have a great day!"


Yinka is at the club handling some few things, Olika walks up to him
"Guy you are working more than your 30%
dont you have school?"
"I just finished class, so I am free till tomorrow" Yinka said
"Dont you have a babe?"
"Is that a trick question?"
"You heard me"
"No I dont, its just me, myself and I" Yinka
said
"Well hold that thought for a second, that young tall beautiful looking girl stannding over there wants to see you"
Olika points at the girl standing near the bar, Yinka walks up to her
"So I guess this is not an apology visit, did you come to yell more?" Yinka said
"Dont make this more difficult, I am only here because my friend said I had to" she said
"Really, you embrassed me after I stopped your boyfriend from disgracing you last night"
"Okay fine! I am sorry for acting out, I am here to make it up"
"Hmm with what?"
"With saying I am sorry again, if you thought it is dinner you are mistaken" she
said
"How about you tell me your name instead"
"Fine my name is Yedire"
"That is strange, sorry I am Yinka, Yedire from which tribe?"
"If you want to know, you have to buy me dinner instead"
