Chapter 28 - A Mental Scar

nBut they took the elevator and went up to the ground floor, before taking the normal elevator to the 20th floor...
nThey knew if they had taken the service elevator which ran from the depths of the basement up to the 100th floor, someone would have known where they were coming from...
nFrom then on, it was just a matter of putting two and two together to know what they have gone to do at the basement…
nMoreover, the service elevator was already at the penthouse where a silent, secret assassination attempt was about to be hatched…
nTim and Kiki got to the twentieth floor about some five minutes later with flush faces...
nJust as they were about to enter their enter their workstations which had a service area configuration, they saw Jim and a co-worker stepping out of the restroom together...
nThe duo were sweaty and flushed also, the only difference being that the coworker could barely walk normally, and it seemed like a fire had been lit beneath her…
nSensing that they must have both been indulging in the same pleasure, they all entered the office and went to their workstations without saying a word to each other…
n
"Hey, hey … Hey! What the **!?
"
nTim exploded in curses the moment he stepped into his workstation and he saw the 'Security Breach' notification on his screen…
nThen he heard several rushing steps and by the time he rotated his seat around to see who it was;
n
"Are you getting this!?
" Jim said frantically before seeing what was on display on Tim's screen;
n
"Get to work!
" Tim yelled at his twin brother;
n
"Find out who is responsible for this!
" Jim left before disappearing into his workstation…
n
"Tulips, run systems diagnostics and override all user access!
"
nTim bellowed as he began to struggle for the control over Tulip's A.I mainframe, but no matter how much he called out, Tulips never responded...
nIt was as if she had been isolated within a different program of some sort…
nTim cracked his knuckles and went from being immensely anxious to full blown paranoid and began to hit every single button on his keyboard like every word would add a second more to his life…
n
"Someone is trying to hack into the system and retrieve my control over the system A.I, do you know who it might be?
"
nThe man spoke with a more aggressive tone this time, and when he sensed Sam's hesitation, he lowered his family by another 5 inches, and continued;
n
"Is the life of this person more important than that of your family's?
"
nSam trembled and began to regret ever taking this job for the first time today…
n
"Speak!
"
nThe man bellowed as he rolled his family down another 5 inches causing Sam's heart to skip a beat because, his family were now so close to the water, that the piranhas were beginning to jump out of the water in a bid to get a bite…
n
"His name is Tim, and please don't hurt him… He is just a kid!
"
nSam pleaded to the man, but was only replied by a brief moment of silence;
n
"I don't like to kill people, and I am very sure I won't be doing any killing today…
"
n
"But my pawns on the other hand, I can't say much for them
" The man spoke before ordering;
n
"But now, I want you to give Tim a call, and tell him to stop whatever he is doing, and try to remind of how many lives are at stake here…
"
nThe man spoke as Sam quickly rang Tim's watch;
nVmmm! Vmmm!
nTim's watch vibrated and the moment he picked up the call, his second screen displayed another blaring warning;
n
"Danger – High radiation over communications network!
"
nBut it was too late because Tim answered the call the moment he saw who it was, and then;
nBoom!
nHis watch exploded and took Tim's left hand away with it…
n
"Aarrghhh!
"
nJim and Kiki rushed back into Tim's workstation only to see blood splattered all over his screen and keyboards and his decapitated wrist;
n
"What happened!?
" Jim asked in fear;
n
"It's Sam… I don't know how or why, but it's Sam!
"
nTim blurted as he began to lose consciousness because of his loss of blood, causing Jim to look to Kiki who was absolutely stunned about everything that had happened in the span of the last five to ten minutes;
n
"Snap out of it and help him!
"
nJim bellowed Kiki back to reality as she quickly removed her panties and wrapped it all over his wrists to stop the bleeding as she bolted to go get something from her workstation…
nThis was her new invention for every ladies, a pant that has an in-built menstrual pads, so women won't have to bother about being caught off-guard forever…
n
"The doors of virtually every room has been locked except the service doors…
nThere is no way we can leave this building!
" Jim spoke having checked everything back at his workstation;
n
"The communications network system has also been disconnected and blocked, so there is no way we can put out a call to the secret control facility either…
" Tim added seemingly out of breath…
nHis face was now pale and he was sweating bullets...
nDespite having his bleeding blocked by Kiki's panties, the blood flow was just too strong to be contained…
n
"Except we use- use- us-
"
nTim thought of a way out but was too exhausted to complete his sentence;
n
"Hey, stay awake buddy!
"
nJim's eyes were already swollen in tears as the thought of losing his dearest twin brother gradually began to grow more apparent with time, but despite all his encouraging words, it didn't stop Tim's eyes from gradually shutting until it eventually shut;
n
"Noooo! Nooo!
"
nJim bawled his eyes out when he saw Tim's eyes shut itself;
n
"No, not now…
"
n
"Move your ass out of the way!
"
nJim was bawling his eyes out when he heard Kiki's voice, followed by a vicious kick that had him tumbling out of his way;
n
"What the ** are you yelling at him for?
"
n
"Are you trying to kill him with your noise or something!?
"
nKiki raged before picking one of the syringes in her hand and plunging it into Tim, and the moment the piston of the syringe reached its end, Jim shot to life with a deep and heavy gasp…
nWithout giving him any chance to relax, she plunged the second one into his laps, causing ever inch of Tim's skin and muscles to become numb…
nThen she removed her heavy panties from Tim's wrist who at this point couldn't feel even the slightest pain when Kiki removed her heavy, blood soaked panties…
nTaking the third syringe, Kiki squeezed something out of it that looked a lot like liquid foam, which solidified the moment they came in contact with the air…
nAfter squeezing this new invention all over Tim's wrists, the thing solidified into thick foam that stuck to the rest of Tim's wrist, stopping the bleeding completely…
nTim stood up and hugged Kiki with one hand before turning to look at his brother whose face was still wet from the tears he had just shed;
n
"I just saw you die…
" Jim spoke with a quaking tone;
n
"Really?
" Tim looked over to Kiki for confirmation;
n
"Well, I just allowed you down there, and it was my first time, and there is no way in hell I'm going to let it be my last!
"
nKiki spoke with a sigh of relief…
nIrony of life: A boy's life was actually hanging in the balance of a girl's desire to get **ed a second time… Life is truly not balanced...
nI owe you one…
"
nTim said as he began to rummage through his drawer looking for something;
n
"Where are you… you were supposed to be right here…
"
nTim spoke more to what he was looking for rather than the duo behind him, and after about thirty seconds, he finally grabbed a thick book out from behind his desk;
n
"Found it!
"
nHe yelled before turning around to look at the rest;
n
"I have a way to contact the outside…
"
n
"But you guys aren't gonna like who I am about to contact…
"
n
"Do it!
" Jim and Kiki blurted simultaneously;
n
"First I need to get a service radio…
"
n
"The basement!
" Kiki suggested;
n
"Yes, this is about the time they run maintenance check…
"
n
"We should be able to find one of them down there!
"
nJim added as they rushed towards the service elevators; as the infrastructural tech guy obviously knew when the firm's technicians ran their maintenance check…
nThe trio stepped into the basement and ran towards the subbasement door, Jim being the most familiar with the area was in the lead, with Kiki right behind him…
nJim opened the door, and the moment his foot stepped into the subbasement, he slipped to a fall as he slid down the stairs nonstop until he landed beside another body which seemed cold to the touch, but because the place was dark, he asked;
n
"Tim is that you?
"
n
"I'm up here!
"
nTim replied as Kiki switched on the subbasement light, and instantly a gory image straight out of a horror movie appeared just in front of Jim's face…
nIt was the eyes of a lady who Jim was very familiar with that was staring straight back into Jim's life;
n
"Arrrgghhh!
"
nAnd it was in that moment that Jim became mentally scarred…
