Chapter 7: AYO
Chapter 7: AYO
The next morning, Ayo is looking around in Papa's office hoping to find clues to defeat Essence. He still
doesn't take Ngozi allegations serious rather he is just going this to fulfill all justice, he sits down on a
chair after searching for hours and finding nothing. He stares at his cybernetic body and sighs. "This
isn't the life I signed up for."
In 2006, Abuja State. Ayo lives in a duplex with his family and has no robotic part implanted in him, he
had a perfect family, both his parents were alive and had three siblings. He puts on a brown Jersey and
picks up a basketball, he always enjoyed playing basketball with his friends and most times when he
goes out like this he ends up getting back home very late.
Ayo leaves the house and starts jogging to the basketball court, the court wasn't really far from his
house and his friends were already calling him to hurry up. He mistakenly pushes a young white lady.
"I'm so sorry." He says this as he helps her get up, the lady stares at him. "Thank......." She falls on the
ground before she could finish what she wanted to say, Ayo gets scared as people start facing them.
"Help me get to my car." She points to a black Jeep, Ayo carries her there. The lady eyes start glowing
into different colours, she focuses it on Ayo and he faints.
Ayo wakes up in a very dizzy state, he finds himself in a small dark room and his hands and legs are
tied with a rope on a bed. He struggles to escape but the rope is to strong. "Somebody help!" He
continues shouting and he suddenly stops after three minute fully aware he was kidnapped but what
for? Ayo never had issues with anyone, he was a very easy-going person. His thought went to the
white lady, could she be punishing him for why he did? He knew wasn't possible, he was very polite
and helpful to her when she fell. A young white man wearing a white coloured lab coat walks in, he was
very tall and he had a lot of wrinkles on his skin. "Hey, if you're the brother of that lady then I can
assure you i didn't mean it so just let me go." The man and the lady looked alike so Ayo first thought
was that the guy was her brother, the man clears his throat and speaks. "Welcome to the place where
you will be better as a human being." This man was Bryan and he was the leader of a group called
"The Organization." The members of the group are different white men and women, they experimented
on black people in order to discover different new creations in the world. Ayo had become their next
prey. "I'm Bryan and I want to help you Ayo, you are going to be fine and when you wake up you're
going to be better." Ayo quickly gets scared and pleads that he should be let go, he had never been in
any situation like this at all. He had always minded his business and kept a tight circle. "Please let me
go, I have a family." Ayo voice shakens as he talks, Bryan brings out a syringe from his pocket and
moves his head really close to Ayo. "Don't worry, we'll take care of your family." He injects the syringe
on Ayo's leg which knocks Ayo down.
Ayo wakes up again still dizzy, he looks around and sees different scientist putting on mask checking
out his body. "Where.......... I'm..........." He talks in a very low tone, he faces his head down and sees
that his left leg has been cut off. "What the fuck!" He screams, one of the scientist quickly notices that Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
he is awake and injects a syringe on his right leg knocking Ayo down. The lady who kidnapped Ayo
removes her mask. "We need to make sure he isn't awake while the surgery goes on." She says firmly,
a young black boy wearing a mask walks in with a rectangular box, he doesn't move close to the
scientists and his body starts shaking, the lady grabs the box from him. "Now get out of here servant!"
She points to the door and the boy runs out of the room. She opens the box and inside is a moving
eye, it leaves a blue trail anytime it shakes, the lady grabs the eye and grips her arm. This eye was a
living being from another dimension, The Organization were after it but we're only able to recover the
eye. "Bring out his eye." She says firmly.
Ayo's eyes start opening, he sees the scientists panicking around the room but he is just to weak to get
up. Blood is all around the floor and even on Ayo's body. "The machine were using is going to overload,
we can't contain this power." A scientist says, Ayo's left hand raises up without his will and it releases a
powerful beam on the wall, the whole building starts breaking down. Ayo sleeps off again.
Ayo wakes up and sees different dead bodies of the scientists laying on the floor, his hand had be freed
from the rope but as he tried to get up his body felt really heavy, he struggled and heard sounds of
clutches. He manages to get up and stares at a window, he quickly turns around out of disgust, he
couldn't stare at his face and tears start rolling down from his only human eye, he touches the robot
eye and felt a part of his humanity had already departed from him. "What happened here? Did I do
this." He stares at the dead body of the scientist, a satisfactory smile is shown on his face. "I pray they
rot in hell." He quickly finds his way out of the building but he can't move his legs again, he falls on the
ground." Come on." He worries as he fears that The Organization might find him again, all was in Ayo's
mind was getting back to his family his dad knew a popular doctor who could help him with his issue. A
black can parks in front of him and Papa comes down from it, Ayo quickly gets scared thinking Papa's
one of The Organization memebers he streches his robotic hand towards Papa. "Stay away from me."
Gboyega shouts, Papa raises both his hands up and tries to ease Ayo down. "Calm down boy, I'm here
to help you. We need to go before they come after you again and I know you might not trust me for
very good reasons but let me take you home." Papa moves closer to Ayo and Ayo let's his guard down,
he felt some warmth around Papa and his voice shakens as he talks. "I just want to go to my family."
Tears roll down from Ayo's only eye, Papa helps him get up and assist him to get to the van. "It's a long
story about your family and I've been monitoring this Organization for a very long time, thank you for
burning this place down."
A year has passed since Ayo escaped with Papa, he had moved with Papa after figuring out The
Organization killed his family. One particular day Ayo heads out while wearing a hoodie and oversized
jeans to cover up his robotic body. Ayo goes to his family house and stand in front of the place. "I miss
you guys every time." He breathes out and walks away. He moves to the basketball court and watches
his old friends play, he wants to go to them but is afraid that they might run off, he looks away and runs
off to Papa house.
Ayo sits at the rooftop of a building of a building and stares at the sunset, he suddenly hears the voice
of a person talking in a robotic sound. "Who's there." He gets really curious and starts looking around,
the sound of the robot starts hitting his head. "I'm Slip." Ayo heard the robot voice again and figures out
it's comings from his mind, he is mentally connected with the robot voice. "Who is Slip?" Ayo ask as he
as never experienced any power with the robotic part in me except that it was heavy to lift his body. "I
was born when your body was infused into mine, took a year for me to be able to reach you." Ayo gets
a little bit excited and gets really curious. "What can you do?" He hopes his robotic side will have some
advantages. "I'm getting a list of what you can do with your robotic side." Slip says, Ayo sighs in relief.
"That's amazing, at least it's good to know I'm not alone."
