The Governor's Rise

Chapter 03

Lyncon figures it's a delusion.

He notices his nose bleeding as a result.

“Hail Governor Lyncon!” A newscaster screams, as she tears off her clothes for him, causing the entire crowd to throw flowers towards where he stood.

It was evident that Lyncon had already won even before the final votes.

"Lyncon, you need to watch what's happening, there's a dangerous media uproar targeted at you." Loki whispers and at that same point, he leaves the pulpit.

“What are you waiting for? Turn on the news already!” Lyncon said to his team as he entered his Media control room.

“My name is Sonia Lyncon." His wife said over the news with a firm looking face.

"Scrap that! My real name is Sonia Macias, I wish to tell the public that my Husband should not be trusted in becoming governor of the republic states, this is because he is a child trafficker!” She said and Lyncon choked on air.

What!?

“I want the world to never trust a demon like him, he is a deadly Mafia, a drug peddler, a killer! A political corrupt boy, I have no choice than to divorce a monstrous murderer like him, Please beware.” She added and Lyncon's heart exploded in pain as Sonia betrayed him.

"Ahh!" He closes his eyes as he holds onto his chests in hurt, hiding his hurt face.

"Wait... How much really was my wife paid to backstab me like this? There's something she isn't telling me." Lyncon still failed to believe why his wife would try to publicly defame him before the world.

"I don't think the public will buy her crap, it's obviously politics, even so you lack every chance." Loki said as Lyncon began to shed tears unknowingly, this was because he had so much trust in Sonia.

"Let it be clear... That I wish to endorse Mr. Huston to become Governor as he is full of good Values and I personally love him, Way more than that monster, thanks." She said before security operatives filled the scene with the current President walking into the pulpit, making even Lyncon's heartbeat even more.

"She loves Huston?" Lyncon reminisces.

"Such address can not be accepted without investigations and evidence tendered, as president, I therefore declare Mr. Lyncon wanted, he must be arrested for investigations immediately and should be apprehended alive or dead!" The president warrants his arrests.

"This is a coup!" Lyncon breaks.

"Why did my wife...Sonia? Why did you ruin your Husband!? Have I not always loved you!?" Lyncon shouts as he breaks the glass cup he held into his palm in agony, causing him to bleed from the bottle cuts as he sits down feeling miserable.

"I will protect you with my life, Lyncon!" Loki, his best friend and assistant says as he begins hugging Lyncon with the rests of his team.

"The world thinks I am a monster, Loki." Lyncon cried as everyone held him from rolling in tears at the media office.

"They want to restrain me so Mr. Huston will become Governor... I must return back immediately to counter this attack, I must not be arrested!" Huston orders only for a gun to click in-between his hug with Loki.

"PooM!" The gun fires with Lyncon staggering backwards as he sees his white suit tie consumed with his blood.

Loki Betrayed his Zeus!

"Loki... Why? I thought we were brothers?" Lyncon asked as he spat out blood in pain.

“To murder your own brother is to kill your own self Loki!” Lyncon speaks parables whilsts in pain as he looks at Loki.

He couldn't believe his own best friend would shoot at him with the Securities taking Lyncon out from the room immediately, before Loki could finally murder him.

Lyncon in a rush is taken straight to a convoy headed for a private Airport.

“Bwar!” Three of his car Escorts in the back and forth exploded in his sight.

"There's a bomb timing! Stop the car!" Lyncon orders as he opens the door of the moving vehicle over the bridge and jumps out, and in that same instant.

"Boom!" The car Explodes!

Lyncon struggles to get up from the floor with his bloody suit, realizing that his wife did not only betray him but had signed him up for death.

He then also recalls the threats he got from the Macias concerning his ambitions in becoming the state governor.

"I will divorce you and you will be on your own, poor fool!" His wife's voice relapses.

“I won't hide my words because we will burn your career, fry your banks and everything you love alive, right before your eyes.” His mother in-laws' voice re-echoes.

"I'd be glad to greet your ghost!" Mr. Huston's voice drops into his head.

This means they meant every word.

The memories helped him realize it's not just an office coup but a bloody coup!

He turns to Escape from the scene, not until his eyes meets with Loki pointing him a gun.

"Loki!! My Brother… You know I have kids to take care of... I ran for this office for the people of this country and my name, even yours too... My kids need their father Loki, don't take my life... Please." Lyncon begged on his knees.

"I beg of you." Lyncon begged more.

"I don't care about your kids, all I care about is the money I'm making out of this... You think it's the Macias against you alone? Heheh! Even the presidency wants your head as a meal." Loki mocks.

"If you kill me... My ghosts will come for you." Lyncon jokes whilst losing his blood, with his eyes dizzy too and then Loki laughs.

"Oh shut up! You're already a dead man walking, now let me ease you of this pain." Loki said as he cracked his gun with Lyncon thinking of his kids.

"My children!" Lyncon panics in a teary agony as Loki's gun Fires!

Immediately! Loki's shadow disappears from Lyncon's coverage as he opens his eyes to see a familiar looking old man with a golden Ipad heading towards him.

"Young master!" Were the man's first words as he shot at a running Loki.

"Young master, are you okay?" The old man asked again as Lyncon finally recognized who the old man who saved him was.

He was Lyncon's family housekeeper, a man who had been bothering Lyncon with many pleas for him to return to his father's house and run the business for a long time, although Lyncon had Always distanced himself from his own heritage.

"Housekeeper, Mr. Ganul, why are you here?" Lyncon asked as Ganul helped him to stand on his feet as they ran through the street of people who all wanted to touch Lyncon because they loved him and wanted him to win.

"Last time we met, I placed a micro - Tracker chip in you, this helps me know whether your life is threatened or not." The housekeeper said.

"Pwar!" The housekeeper gets shot too.

"Damn! Housekeeper, are you okay? I guess you don't have a micro chip to save yourself old man." Lyncon eyerolls as they shielded themselves with the ground, crawling their way off.

"You should know the president has given security operatives the right to kill me or to arrest me, obviously now my opposition can kill me." Lyncon tells Mr. Ganul who couldn't wait to crawl away.

"Then maybe it's time you reconsider accepting your inheritance from your parents, this nonsense is below who you are." The housekeeper tells him as he coughs out blood dying next to Lyncon.
