Chapter DEATH OF KUNTAPHA
Fawrus went to Kuntapha with his speed-power and wanted to punch Kuntapha with his fist and the force of his power but Kuntapha blocked Fawrus's fist with his arms crossed together above his chest, but the force of Fawrus's power made Kuntapha slide backward. Kuntapha regained his stance and put his hand down.
As Fawmus and Kuntapha continue to fight, they both hit themselves in the chest and the force of the hit made both of them take some steps backward but they regained their stance back.
Even with Fawrus' full powers, he still wasn't able to defeat Kuntapha then Fawrus released fire (that came out of his bare hands) toward Kuntapha, but Kuntapha stopped the fire before it got to him by also releasing air (that came out of his bare hands) toward the fire.
The fire and air remained constant and they both began to push forward toward each other. Fawrus would push forward his fire with his strength and Kuntapha will take a step back with his air. Kuntapha will also push forward his air with his strength and Fawrus will also take a step back with his fire. This continued for some time then suddenly, Kuntapha stopped pushing his air and created a shield that surround him using his air, preventing the fire from touching or hurting him.
As the shield made by air surrounds Kuntapha and the fire is not able to touch or hurt Kuntapha, Kuntapha began to walk through the fire to Fawrus. Fawrus saw that and increased the volume of his fire but still, that did nothing to the shield (air) or Kuntapha. Before Fawrus know it, Kuntapha was at his front and Kuntapha hold Fawrus's two hands with his hands and the fire stopped coming out of Fawrus' hands then suddenly, Fawrus felt the fire power leaving his body. Fawrus groaned in pain as the flames all over his body began to die slowly then he became shocked at what was happening to him and asked Kuntapha ''What are you doing to me?''.
''I told you I have a method of handling people like you. You might wanna know, am taking your powers'' said Kuntapha to Fawrus.
''How is that possible?'' Fawrus (shocked) asked Kuntapha, then the red color of Fawrus's eyes also start to die slowly.
''I guess you don't know me well enough'' said Kuntapha to Fawrus.
Kuntapha completely absorbed the fire power from Fawrus. The flame covering Fawrus's body died, his eyes became normal, and he became weak as he kneel on the ground with his head bowed in front of Kuntapha.
Kuntapha said to Fawrus ''now you are nothing. You think you are strong enough on your own but you just don't know that even if it was you that control Leo, Leo Is what makes you powerful and great. I would have told Leo to wait if I knew you are weakling and not as powerful or monstrous as they claim you to be once. Now that I have the fire power I shall return it to where it came from and you will die''.
Immediately Kuntapha said those words, Fawrus laughed weakly and Kuntapha wondered why he did that and asked him ''why are you laughing?''
Fawrus raised his head and said with a smile to Kuntapha ''now you die''.
Kuntapha was shocked and confused by those words but suddenly, Kuntapha coughed out blood and he felt his insides burning. Kuntapha became weak immediately and fell to his knees right in front of Fawrus. Kuntapha asked himself ''What happening to me?''.
''Even with your powers I still win at the end, but you were really hard to defeat I give you that. You are dying slowly, old man'' said Fawrus (with a smile) to Kuntapha.
''Why am I dying and you are supposed to be dying too without the fire power'' said Kuntapha weakly to Fawrus.
''I kind of set a trap for you'' said Fawrus to Kuntapha.
''What trap?'' Kuntapha asked Fawrus.
''I know you were going to absorb my power thinking I will die without it. But what you don't know is that I can last up to 30 minutes without it because am becoming human slowly. I kind of use your smartness against you. You might be wondering what is happening to you from within, it's the fire power that is killing you slowly but your powers are trying to fight against it so it won't kill you but eventually, your powers will be defeated and you will die. I knew you can deprive gods of their powers by absorbing them from them. After realizing I can't defeat you with my powers or anything, so I let out my powers knowing you will want to absorb them and you did. What you don't also know is that they are only three people except me that can wield the fire power which are Fawmus, Leo, and Deo. And again am the soul of the fire power do you think you can just absorb it from me without me wanting you to''.
Kuntapah coughed out blood again and Fawrus continued ''But if you cooperate with me, I can take the fire power from you before it kills you. Just tell me what you discussed with Leo and Deo. I know you are very resourceful and they were here because of me''.
Kuntapha smiled weakly and said to Fawrus ''are you afraid of them? Thinking they have something that can hurt you''.
''Why should I be afraid of them? This is about saving you from the power that is killing you from within. And there is no way to hurt me without them hurting Leo. Just tell me what you told them or give them so I can save you'' said Fawrus.
''Okay, this is what I told them..... rot in hell'' said Kuntapha, and coughed out blood again.
''So you will give up your life for them. I didn't expect this from you. Well it's fine by me'' said Fawrus.
''Or maybe you should come to join me in hell and I will tell you'' said Kuntapha, and laughed crazily even though he was in pain.
''Okay, if that's what you want. I will find out myself, too bad you will be gone'' said Fawrus.
The fire power burned Kuntapha from the inside completely. Kuntapha bleed from his nose, mouth, ears, and eyes before he died and fade away then the fire power returned to Fawrus and Fawrus regained back his strength, and stood up. Immediately Kuntapha died, the mountain and everything around it crumbled, the passage open up back and Fawrus left through it.
NIGHT
Fawmus drove the three of them to a motel outside the city. Fawmus rented a room that has two beds using another human image while they waited in the car for him to come back with a room key.
Adewale dropped the bag on the bed as they got into the room and the three of them looked tired then they sat down on the beds except for Fawmus. Fawmus said to the three of them ''am going out to get you guys and Domien something to eat''.
''Okay, but remember don't use my face anywhere'' said Adewale to Fawmus, and Fawmus left.
Fawmus returned with food inside a 3 polythene nylon and saw Adetutu asleep on one bed, while uncle James and Adewale were busy with the laptop as they lay on another bed. Fawmus dropped the polythene nylons on a small shelf beside the bed and sat down beside them looking at what they were doing with the laptop. Uncle James and Adewale were looking at the welfare of the company which was bad because the owners (them) were said to be criminals and fugitives.
Adewale said to uncle James ''the company is getting much worst than we thought''.
''It's because we are being accused of murder. The only way to return the company to its glory is if we cleared our names and to do that we need to kill that bastard Fawrus'' said uncle James to Adewale.
''Enough of that. You all should eat now and worry about Fawrus, and your company later'' said Fawmus to uncle James and Adewale, and closed the laptop. Adetutu was woken up by Fawmus and the three of them ate except Fawmus.
Detective John didn't go home that day after the incident that happened. He stayed in his office and did some research about supernatural being and their abilities (powers). Most of the things he found out are said not to be real, but he was still amazed about the things the supernatural being could do and the powers they possessed.
Detective John spent time reminiscing on things that have been happening in his current case. The three unknown men that the camera didn't capture, the name Fawrus and Fawmus, the incident at the station and that of the road, the weird circle and shield at the hotel. Detective John starts to think and believe that Adewale, uncle James, and Adetutu might be telling the truth and that what is truly happening is beyond his imagination or any humans but those things they were talking about are impossible things. While on his thought Detective John later falls asleep.
Detective John later woke up by an officer who said to him that they have locate the stolen laptop location. Detective John rounded up all the police officers and left with them in cars.
