C4 Who is She?

She was tall, slim, and well carved. She wore a mask that only revealed her eyes. She wore black leggings with a black turtle neck top which ran to her knees having splits at the side.

Her brown hair was long which was poured got to her waist and had a hair clip on it. A part of her hair covered her right eye. She had on a golden chain bracelet and a diamond-encrusted necklace around her neck.

The pendant was that of a male and female hugging each other smiling. The entire environment was in confusion. Who was she that she commanded so much authority from these people?

The entire city was confused and the soldiers and police officers all gave her salute which sent even more confusion.

“Is she a government official?" a female spectator asked

Everyone around her nodded. “I have no idea" a male behind her said

The lady looked around her and spotted everyone. She raised her fingers and snapped them twice before two men out of her troops walked forward and stood before her. The soldiers and police officers were still in salute. She placed her hands behind her and walked two steps and stopped.

She glances at the soldiers and the police officers and looked at the man that opened the door for her. He nodded and she walked ahead having the two men beside her escort her. Once she was at the door to get into the company, she halts. The man that stepped out of the car before her, gave the soldiers and police officers a salute and they stood in attention before she eventually walked inside.

The reporters rushed into the building after Mia to get the action to the public. Those outside turned on the news channels on their phones to watch what was going on in the building.

The man after he gave a salute to the soldiers and officers walked into the building after the reporters and rushed to the lady and walked before her. She walked slowly and boldly. They all stopped in front of the reception desk.

Those who sat waiting for their turn stood on her emergence into the building and those on a line waiting for their turn clears the path for them to go through. Her eyes hardly blinked. The receptionist was a lady in her twenties putting on a brown fitted suit. She was sweating profusely as she almost dropped the telephone she held when they got to her.

“Your boss, we would like to see him," the man in front said with a smile

The receptionist stood and scanned their faces and that of everyone present in the reception office. She locked her eyes with that of the lady in the middle of the three men. She kept on staring at the lady's eyes which seemed not to blink for at least two minutes but once they locked eyes she did not blink. The receptionist froze in fear.

“Didn't you hear him?" the man at the right said

“She is frozen, Liam," the man at the left said to the man in front

Liam nods and hits the reception desk with so much force and the receptionist gasps out of her daze and fell back on her seat before hurriedly standing up again.

“I advise you don't look at her eyes for too long. So tell me, where is your boss? She would like to see him" Liam said leaning on the reception desk trying to ease her fear

“H… he i…is not in his office" the receptionist stammered in fear

Liam smiles. “Are you sure of that?" he asked

“Hundred percent sure," the receptionist said

Liam glances at Mia and the men beside her. “Are you lying to me? She won't go easy on you if you are" Liam said as calmly as he could

“I promise, I'm not lying," the receptionist said

Liam stares at Mia still leaning on the reception desk and she began moving towards a corridor at the right of the reception desk.

The reception office had four corridors. Two at each side of the reception desk and two other corridors facing the two other corridors giving a pattern of the letter X.

Mia stood in front of the corridor and snapped her fingers and pointed the three corridors left and each one of the men did as instructed and stood in front of the corridors with their AK-47 ready for fire. Once Mia was assured they were in position, she moved ahead into the corridor. The receptionist kept on sweating and glancing into the corridor Mia walked into. She glanced at the men at the corridors and the two who stood beside Mia were standing with a good fighting and firing stance while Liam relaxed his back on the wall of the corridor with folded arms and his feet on the wall with an angle of ninety degrees.

The receptionist bends down and grabs the telephone. She dials a number but it was not answered and she could not help but feel even tenser. She stood up with a gloomy face.

“You said he wasn't in. Why did you lie?" Liam asked with his eyes shut and his head in the wall and in the same position he was earlier

“I…"

“And that's why she never asks nicely," the right man said

“True" the other two men chorused

“You will pay for that. You made me look like a fool" Liam said and opened his eyes sharply and the receptionist shook in fear

Liam stood in a fighting stance. “But she would do it not me. She hates lies" Liam said and glances at the men. “Be ready for action. It's almost time" he added staring into the corridor Mia walked into

Liam was always aware of how close and when the action will begin but no one has been able to explain how that was possible lots of hypothesis has been brought up but none has been confirmed or declined by him.

A ruffling and shattering sound was heard which was followed by a firearm shot.
