Doomed!
“Mum!” Someone suddenly called and she turned, she received the greatest joy of her life when she saw Chester running towards her.
This better not be a dream. She carried him up happily and hugged him so dearly, “oh my days! I have missed you so much.”
“I have missed you too, mum.” Chester said.
“We must go now,” she quickly walked with him back to the seaport and immediately entered the ship. Took about an hour before the ship took off to Jora City.
Forty hours passed by quickly and they were just a few kilometers away to reach Jora’s sea port when an announcement was suddenly made by one of the officers in the sea, “it was reported that someone here has come to Maridonna to kidnap a babyboy. Before we begin to search, if you know you are the one, stand now and save us the stress.”
Everyone began to look at eachother in fear, there were a few families in the ships with babies so everyone was suspecting everyone. But who in his right senses would come to Maridonna of all places to kidnap babies, is the person looking for a cheap way to commit suicide?
“If we begin to search and find out ourselves, you will be shot dead right here and your body will be thrown into the sea.” One of the officers in the shop said. “Asking for the last time. Stand up if you kidnap a baby.”
About a few seconds of silence later, a woman stood up. Before she could even say a word, she was shot on the dead. Everyone in the sea gasped in shock.
“She just wanted to use the toilet,” the nine year old boy of the woman that stood said. The little one held his mother’s dead body and began to cry.
“She stood at the wrong time,” one of the officers concluded. Maridonna officers were trained to be ruthless. And they were known to be extremely loyal to their country.
Then the officers took pictures of every children inside the ship and send it over to the authority of Maridonna. In a few minutes, they got a response.
All these while, Brigitta’s heart was shivering, she was scared. Although this was her kid and the kid wasn’t kidnapped, nonetheless, she was still scared. She hugged Chester tightly even as he curled up on her lap.
She suddenly saw two big officers approaching her, their faces were deadly, she felt as if her heart was about to slip out of her throat.
Chester was suddenly snatched away from her and she was immediately handcuffed, “he’s my son… he’s my baby… I have proves he’s my baby, I didn’t kidnap him.”
A big shackle was placed on her neck and her legs were handcuffed, as though she was a slave. She couldn’t move an inch cause of the heavy shackles on her neck.
“He’s my son!” She cried out but the officers turned blind eyes and deaf ears to her, while they took Chester to another room. Chester was also screaming for freedom. From where she was, she could hear the loud cries of her son, “mommy! Mommy!”
“I’m here, Chester… I’m here,” she cried out loud.
The ship then turned back and began to row back to Maridonna. When it dawn on Brigitta that they were heading back to Maridonna, she knew it was over for her. She was indeed foolish to think this will work. Perhaps, Rollo really tried his best to help her but Alex outsmarted him.
Days passed by quickly and the ship alighted at Maridonna’s seaport. Chester and Brigitta was taken out and then taken inside a car. This time, the chains and shackles on her had been removed.
Chester and Brigitta were now seated at the backseat while a driver and an officer sat at the front seat. “mom, where are they taking us to?” Chester asked.
“I don’t know yet, but don’t worry, I’m here,” she comforted her son.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
“Mom, I’m having headache,” the little one had cried so hard that he was now having headache.
She hugged her son closer and said, “I’ll try to get you a drug.” The little one was also scared even as the car moved.
Eventually, the car began to approach the emperor’s palace, the gate was extremely gigantic, it was made in form of hollows, never in this world had she seen such a gate. There were garrisons all around the front of the palace, if she enters this place, it will be impossible for her to ever escape this place.
She prayed earnestly for a miracle to happen. Something should just happen that will stop her from going in there. Her heartbeat increased. Yet, her phone was still in her pocket but she dared not bring it out yet they seize it.
Eventually, they got before Maridona’s palace gate and a small part of the gate opened automatically then the car drove in. At this point, she lost all hope. The car then went to park at the garage and she was brought down alongside her Chester.
She stood, holding Chester while adoring the beauty and excellence of the palace. Everything here was custom made obviously. From the design of the buildings to the pools, to the stations , to the flowers and other things inside the compound.
The palace was so large that she couldn’t see the end of it from the right and from the left. All she could see were soldiers standing firm and at alert. It seems there are more soldiers in this city than ants.
She was lead inside but this time with respect, her son was suddenly taken away by an officer while she was locked up inside a room that had only a mattress in. The mattress wasn’t on a bed stand at all, it was right on the floor.
She knew her life was doomed. Yet, she was wise enough not to bring out her phone. There could be CCTV camera here. She knew that calls to foreign countries wouldn’t go through here nonetheless, she would prefer for her phone to be with her than for her phone to be seized.
