Chapter 29: Chapter 29 War and disaster iv
Alexa eyes darkened realizing what was going on, it was obvious the enemy was before her and it became more confusing, the thought of Abigail been the reason for her hurdles and problems angered her but she smiled knowing how Damian might butcher her knowing she was behind the issue going on in the school. So standing up she went straight to Abigail and spoke.
"Stop glaring or people might think you are the killer, or are you ." Abigail eyes began wondering around looking to see if anyone was listening to their conversation but seeing no one was paying attention she warned.
" How foolish of you to think you can scare me, mind your business Alexa or I would end up destroying you and your friends, be warned and I won't repeat myself again never." Alexa was mouth was hanging open, never in her wildest dream would she imagine Abigail giving her threat and it came out cold as ever.
Meanwhile the news of Lucinda death has stunned the class so much they was such an uproar because it was obvious they was a serial killer present in their midsts, Damian face was void of any emotions he was just thinking how Lamia would cope, Catherine was not left out too.
Michael who's face was beyond recognizable laughed, " come on Damian finish me, end what you started do whatever you want but you guys don't know what you have gotten yourself into, the master of the game won't let you off the hook, all of you are just puppet in a larger game so trust me when I said this you are all good as dead."
Damian let out a sadonic laughter which made Cathy to flinch, she was beyond scared this one has passed their expectations, it was obvious they were dealing with a psycho who wanted them dead. Cathy thought went to Lamia she was worried sick for his well being because this person wanted them out of the way. Damian lifted the weak Michael up and gave him a powerful punch, this led to a loud crack which eventually broke Michael nose.
" Start confessing." Damian voice grew louder and colder this time he was determined to end his pathetic life if he doesn't comply to his request. Michael eyes searched for Abigail but it was obvious he has been abandoned, the class was in great pandemonium students were greatly afraid, some wanted to call the school authorities but their call were denied even those who tried running to the gate were chased back and it made securities to bar the gate preventing students from leaving.
The classroom became gradually empty as students around didn't want to interfere and Damian has tied Michael in a pole in which he looks so dehydrated, Damian promised so much misery to him so it was far from ending, Cathy who was tired of witnessing the grusome scene voiced her complain.
" Damian I think this is more than we can see, because right now it seems the school is indirectly involved with the matter, and Lucinda death is somehow connected to this issue, can't you see it can't be because of the competition I believe Lucinda got hold of an incriminating information which in other to keep hidden led to her death."
Damian finally turned to Cathy, she was right and the theory seems to match because Michael has begun trembling which means Cathy hit the jackpot, but what could be so private that could warrant the killing of the daughter of such a prominent family as the Alexandria's. Damian carried a nice dagger which to Cathy shock he brought it out of his pocket, he faced Michael and threw him one last question.
" I know you realize what this confrontation means, I am giving you one last chance and if you don't tell me what you know about all this I will end you instantly and I won't blink an eye to do so."
Michael looked at Damian straight In the eye and fiercely he whispered, " Do your worse Michael I dare you." Damian giggled and he sighed.
" Okay, I do love a good challenge, don't say I didn't warn you." To Cathy dismay the dagger came slicing the whole of Michael fingers and instantly he loose his right hand fingers earning a dangerous yell which sent shivers down Cathy spine, but Damian kept his calm facade, he brought an iron which to Cathy perplexity she figured out it was a hot iron In the highest degree and he plunge it directly on Michael hands and this time the pain made Michael yell in a loud beastly manner.
Having enough Cathy stopped Damian and reprimanded him, " Damian stop this, this is unhumane imagine if he were in your shoes and you were being tortured in such degree would you make it, The purpose of all this wasn't it to be better than them but in acting this way you and their fellow psychos are no different."
Damian stopped looking at Michael disfigured face and battered hands, he then turned to Catherine furiously, " do you realize the gravity of what you are saying, he might even be the perpetrator of Lucy attack or worse he might know the person which I confirm that to be true."
Catherine knew Damian was on point but it was obvious Michael was not ready to reveal the master planner behind the scheme and Catherine eyes bulged insanely.
" Damian oh my gosh is now I understand it, I think Lucinda death wasn't only because of knowing the hidden truth, I think the Alexandria's family are the prey and it seems something led the culprit to start targeting them, remember Lamia was attacked not once, not twice but three times and since he was the heir to such a great fortune I think the main target was Lamia but Lucinda happened to get in the way."
Damian was beyond impressed, he never knew Cathy was this intelligent and smart, but this issue was more complicated than it appears to seem, with the way things were going Lamia wasn't save in Ivory high any longer he needed to move, but it then dawn to Damian Lamia life was at stake, it was a plan work to lure them away from Lamia, realizing Michael was stalling them he frowned hardly but the question kept ringing why all this and it seems the answer lies with the Alexandria's family and in other to defeat their enemies they must learn the whole truth from Lamia.
Cathy glared at Michael, he couldn't believe humans could be so cruel but remembering what she passed through at the hands of Alexa and Lucinda she became surprised on how she made it alive all this days, but should she really mourn for Lucinda when she was her worst nightmare but suddenly Damian came with an unexpected question.
" Catherine who pushed you back at the dinner party because I knew it was also the same culprit because the whole incident seem connected." Catherine was now more confused as ever, she began trying to recollect, then she began narrating to Damian.
" I remembered vividly I heard a plan attack to deal with Abigail, I became scared because with the intensity of the talk I was worried for Abi life I attempted exposing them but I was caught but I managed to excape, and during that fateful night I was coming to look for you then I saw Jayden on his way."
Damian brow began to twitch, Jayden how wasn't he at the gathering because he sat opposite him, but he acknowledged Cathy to continue and she dropped the shocking part.
" I wanted to ask about you from him to seek your help because of my predicament then so unfortunately instead of giving me my answer he acted all creepy and I was pushed so forcely that I stumbled through the numerous stairs case." Damian stared at Cathy looking at her shaken voice she was definitely telling the truth but that person couldn't be Jayden he was sure of what he was talking about.
" Catherine I am so sorry but we have a problem the person you mentioned was with us that dinner night and he sat opposite me, so my theory was that the person that pushed you was an imposter, probably a thug in disguise so I don't know ."
Cathy then looked at the sky, it was getting late and she was damn worried of Lamia it was obvious Lamia was the next target and it was getting creepier.
