The night of the ritual

I drove to the hallway and parked my car the moment I got to the for she saw her mom and dad standing there .

"mama am sorry “ I whispered hugging the mother tightly.

I didn't know what to do , I just wanted all of this to end .

"Am sorry dear chikd ,am sorry that you had to go through all of that but I hope you kniw that we have no choice .

" It's okay dad I totally understand your point of view and I would participate in the ritual ,after all am not going to get selected am sure of that "

My dad just looked at me and without waiting for their reply ,I walked to the room .

Getting to my room ,I shut the door immidiately and I let out all that I had been thinking ,I knew that I couldn't cry no matter what ,I just can't do that now .

****

The week was finally here ,the week of the ritual .

I knew that one thing I couldn't imagine was what was going to happen to me in the next three days ,I just couldn't place my head on it ,my head was going into different thoughts ,was this my fault .

"Avery ,it's time "I heard dad say outside my room .

I took the bracelets mom and dad had made for me ,it had the picture of both my twin sisters ,my family's and I .

Starring at the pictures ,I couldn't help the tears that came out from my eyes .

What if I never get to see them again .

No that was never going to happen .

I pushed my thoughts behind me and pushed the door open immidiately and the moment I got our ,my dad was their with I mom and my two younger one's .

"Baby girl no matter what happens this week ,I want you to know that ,I love you and I would do just anything in to make sure you are fine .

Please don't hate me for doing this ,I just had no choice than to do this .

"It's okay dad ,it's okay mom "I said hugging them and after doing that I went to my younger ones .

""Big sissy are you going to come back "Kyla asked me .

"Of course my love ,I would always come back ,if I don't who is going to care for you "I told them smiling .

"But mom say there's a probability that you might not be back "Kyle voice came out .

I raised up my head to look at my mother ,how did she have to say that .

."it's okay ladies go meet your nanny ,I would be back soon "dad said ahd their nanny took them .

"I have to tell you something beforehand you go "mom said Holding my hands and dragging me back .

I turned to look at mom giving her that questioning look .

"I know I wanted this whole stuff to be over but then I still have no choice ,am scicared that you might not return and I don't want you knowing this .

"An pregnant baby girl ,and there's a big probability that this kids are male

I just want you to know this my love , just in case something happens "

"Mom I will be back and please take care "I told her hugging her softly .

The ride to where the rest girls was at the outskirts of the town and inside the woods

"The moment we got there ,dad packed his car and the rest chiefs came out to greet him .

."what about you going join the other girls while I talk to you dad "my uncle Blake said .

I took a good look at uncle Blake ,only God knows how much I hated this man .

There was just something about him in all of this "

I ignored his words and stood just beside my dad .

"Avery "one of the chiefs called out.

"Am not leaving this place unless my dad asked me to ,and to you uncle Blake what's your role in this that you are always attacking dad .

"You think I don't know of your evri plans ,I know you have the mindset of taking this town from dad but one thing ,that's never going to happen not under my watch "

"And that's if you ever get to come back alive "

"You disgusting piece of shit "dad yelked angrily and hit his chest with anger .

The chiefs immidiately stopoed them while I just looked at that son of a bitch.

His looks alone disgusted me to the core

"I know what to do that ,I think I would just go over to the girls ,you take of mom and my sister , I would be back after I got this done with "I told him .

I walked towards the girls and as I got closesr my heart was thumping hard against my chest .

I couldn't imagine what was going on , something in me told me that I was going to my dead th trap ,I couod feel it ,being here didn't feel right one bit ,but what was going on .

I walked to the little tent House that had been made for them and I saw most of my school mates and even my friends but then I wasn't friends with anyone ,I was always by myself .

"See whom we got here "I heard Someone say and turning to my left I saw Dora ,.

Dora was one on the school bullied but she dared never to placed her havds on me ,I wsd the chief daughter ,I guess this was one of the reasons most of them hated me to the core .

"Dora get out of my way "I told her through gritted teeth ahd she didn't need anyone to tell her to leave before she did .

Even though I was that quiet girl with immense beauty ,there was still something strange about me that I even found so hard to believe.

I had some unimaginable amout of strength and I could hurt while angry but dad and mom told me never to hurt anyone nor evev a fly and could only defind myself with it .

" I walked straight to my tent there and just walked in without waiting for anyone .

I laid on the bed without knowing what to do or say and thoughts going through my head

I wanted so much to go to the bigger city and that's more reasons why I would never fall a prey in this ritual .

I would get out of this ritual alive .
