CHAPTER 15.

It's six months now since mum died and I am done with secondary school. Didn't care what the results were. The autopsy from mum's case came back. No fingerprints, no broken locks, no free DNA, nothing. There weren't any witnesses. One thing was sure, it was someone who was close.
I took my training seriously this time, I pushed myself hard, so hard people were afraid of me at times.
The DUA didn't let me out of the base for fear that I could wreck something or run into any trouble. I couldn't let them cage me like some kinda animal. I escaped from the base.

I'm on the street now hoping to ease myself off someone's pain and car jackers were the unfortunate victims.
I walked up to them with my backpack on my back and a mask I wore ocassionally to avoid YKW.
There were two jackers. The first was a thug-like muscular dude and the other was a regular. Probably the driver.

"It's not nice to take what doesn't belong to you!" I said getting their attention. The muscular one walked up to me. Oh was he huge. He looked down at me like an insect. I was so not in the mood for bullies.

"Knack tha hidiot" said the regular.

I knew it was going to be a right jab immediately. I ducked, materialised an iron fist and gave him an anger punch to the abdomen making him spit blood. (Eww dude! Not on me). He was shocked but relentless. He made a right swing. I ducked. He missed. He tried again and missed. It was getting miserable. I had to end his embarrassment. I punched him in the rib cage, slipped behind him, punched his spine-- all with the iron fist. Held both hands behind him and materialised cuffs. Materialised a knife and slit the tendons at his legs and kicked him to his knees.
When the regular saw this, he tried to run. I materialised a spear and threw through his tigh putting him down. Walked furiously to him and pulled it out, used it to stab his other leg. Pulled it out about to stab him again, I saw my mum inna flash and dematerialized the spear. Held both hands in front of him and cuffed him. I heard a scream nearby and my mum's image flashed again. I kicked the regular in the rib and left for the next victim.

****

The DUA arrive at the scene, guns blazing. Just kidding.

"What happened here?" An agent said to the thugy guy who was in serious pain.

"E get this boy way come here. The boy be like winch. The boy hand dey like iyon--"

"What the what happened here?!" The agent barked.

"We no do anything, the boy just wound wound person come run leave us" the thug guy said.

"Yeah. Right!" Said the agent checking the cuffs and the cuts "check the perimeter he couldn't have gone far."

"You go leave us like this?"

"Yeah, we are not the police." Replied the agent running off.

****

"You've heard what he did right?"

"Yes sir"

"He's getting stronger. We need to tame him before someone gets a video of 'vigilante' and secret government property is on the world wide web."

"Since his mother d--"

"I. Don't. Care. If you have to, treat him brutally"

"Yes sir."
