How did he know you were going there"" Detective Zaacks was furious he was mad at him for letting John fool him. He knew Murphy was smart but he believed Lawrence relaxed and had wasted their only chance to get him. 6:00 pm the grandmaster called. The detective hesistated, he wasn't ready for the husky voice . He was tired of being given last chances and warning .combined with the rage of being outsmarted by Johnny he picked it and pressed it on his ear and said only one word to confuse his partner. "" what!!" He listened and said thank you then hang up the call. Take the car keys we are going out.

The grandmaster's associates and the tech group had agreed on one thing. A surveillance system was being used by the fugitive to know their exact locations and whereabout. So one of his hired smart freelancers had come up with a plan to shake them off before the next morning for a special and last event had to happen without John Murphy and his cowgirl sister snooping around the big guys business .Detective Zaacks had outlined the plan to Lawrence in the car though he was Lying about the source of the information that Murphy and his sister were watching their movements, that was obvious. Lawrence had listened to the audios downloaded by John Murphy, so he knew that the man sitting next to him was not just his superior, he was also a criminal. He knew it was his job to stop him but he believed John Murphy had also committed crimes and was to pay for it. He had the whole night to calculate his position and set his bearings . He was torn . He needed a game plan that was obvious . He had no side too ,that was obvious and he was behind time. As the car left the N14 they headed for the department's arsenal. They didn't need a written approval to open the armoury because he was swimming with the big shark , detective Zaacks.

From the arsenal to the rendezvous it took them about ten minutes and this took the clock exactly to half past 6. Logic was being used in the game plan. It was a trial and error format and it was based on assumptions, maybe they were right or they were wrong. What made the situation worse was that if john is not monitoring the surveillance cameras ,he might not come and even if he is looking at the cameras he might not make a move,panic or move as they expected him to do. They knew he was monitoring their cellphones the freelancer had proved it by tracing the microchip at the communication center. So they used that angle and typed a message to the detective _we know where he is . bring a missile and your partner for backup . we will be there by 6:45 pm_

The idea behind the operation was not accurate but logical. The surveillance system they used was based on a certain range of kilometres. Considering they were monitoring both the two detectives and the grandmaster's location it meant they were somewhere around four ways and the North cliff corner, With a guess Martin had chosen North cliff corner because of its packed buildings. A good hideout you can even build a bunker at the backyard"martin the freelancer had said lecturing the show

They were playing John Murphy and were hoping to beat him in his game. They had tech vans ,drones mobile boosters and a great number of I,T specialists surveiling the area. The idea was Johnny would panic and try to runaway then he will be visible from his hideout.

When he tries to flee ,one of our planted cameras vans or drone will pick him up and we nail him" he was so confident. He was an exe military police working part-time , who didn't want extra money.

In the bunker kim was staring at the monitor in total shock. She couldn't believe it . they were less than 3 km away from the bunker. Checking the taped cellphones she saw messages .""we know where they are...."

Quickly Kim pushed herself from the dashboard locked the main entrance of the bunker. The bunker itself was classy ,built in style it shouted class from the inside. Its location was known only to its owners. The outside world believed it was a long lost Church building abandoned by the holy group before construction was done.

She headed to the subway garage and unlocked her Porsche . She was in for the game so she auto dialed Johnny to tell him she would pick him at the zoo , the bunker was to be under attack.

As Kim hit the accelerator through the escape route she found herself in plot near London land . checking the gas she decided to take Northumberland road and join Malibongwe before filling up at the sasol service station. She was doing 120 an hour , using a Porsche that's totally crazy. She didn't care she was a wreck less driver . From the tech center a young woman snapped two fingers to the control officer.

"I got something""

Her drone had found a match. It was her along Northumberland. The plan was working she was speeding like Jason statham , the transporter himself. The plan had paid off. They had just misplaced their queen and it was easy to locate the unprotected king.

At the zoo it was too dark so Murphy and Brian waited at the close by dinner shop. He wasn't comfortable after his sister's call. He looked quizzically at Brian

"" don't give me that look, I came in unconscious and left in a sack"" he said protectively.

The more he thought of it the more he got confused. It was after a 9th thought that he said what if its a trap. What if they wanted us to react. If they knew the bunker ,they could have encircled it like before. It was at this moment that he knew it was too late for his sister, so he auto dialed her back.

As she pulled at the service station for gas, three more jeeps parked around her. Three man in black came out with their guns pointed at the yellow jeep. She dropped her sunglasses a bit ,continued chewing her bubblegum and raved once more. The three man in black moved closer to the car aiming the driver's seat. Though others could not see her because of the tinted windows ,one of them was looking direct into her eye. She was not scared ,he knew and she seemed not to notice his gun so he moved closer and that was his mistake. Kim was looking at the tank it was half filled so he pushed the hand break up and accelerated towards the black suited guy.The takeoff was insane. Maybe that's why the car was customised. Built according to her wishes, the comfort was unexplainably wonderful and seatbelt was tight on her chest so she accepted the race challenge and hit the guy so bad. It was so sudden that the guy managed one shot on target and two more stray bullets whose casings nobody knows they went where.

At a tight corner the Porsche squeezed through a Buckie parked parallel near the store's entrance and took off to the north. From the view mirror she calculated at least one hundred metres from the opponent, fair enough. A shortcut through the mall took her in the freeway , she was had gained three hundred meters more. Hitting the gas she was untouchable ,she could feel she was wining the race, she could hear sirens from behind fading away . They couldn't catchup with her so she relaxed to 80 km/hr .concentrating with the road ,her phone rang it was his brother, he was concerned this time, she could feel it in his voice

"Where are you sis"

He had called her sis ever since they had met.

She smiled at the encounter and said

"I figured out either late that it was a trap, they never knew where the bunker was"

They all kept quiet for a while, they knew she would not make it ,they knew maybe it was their last day together so Kim managed to say "I love you dear brother and hung up" just when she placed the cell on the dashboard she saw blue lights , a road block not far from where she was so she hit the brakes heaved a sigh,unbuckled and got out of the car . Detective Zaacks , ex military martins and a few more guys pointed at her and Martin grinned at her.

"" hey beautiful , I've just beat you on your game , that's a check." He was laughing when she said the game ends with a checkmate and laughed back at him
