2020-10-08 00:24:55Whoosh...
pa ta pa ta!"
The sound of raindrops filled the air on a cool evening. As the sun prepared to set in the west.
The clear sky was cherry–red, with patches of dark–brown clouds, struggling to completely obliterate the sun.
It was one of those days when it drizzled while there was still sunshine.
From a small hut, made of red mud and thatch roof, a female's sorrowful cry rang out.
Succeeding, to outperform the whooshing sound of the evening breeze, and the clapping sound made by the drizzling rain.
The female human continued to scream from the suffering and pain she felt.
However, from inside the hut, some other voices of encouragement and consolation could be heard.
"Just a little more your highness! it will be over soon."
"yes your highness, I suggest you have a bit more endurance, and just put in more effort and it'll all soon be over."
Four women, each dressed with a white piece of cloth, tied around their chest and waist, gathered around a woman as they hollered words of encouragement and consolation to her.
lying on a stone bed, was a disheveled woman, who had been wailing for a while.
With her eyes tightly shut, and her face contorted from pain, she continued to endure the suffering, while biting hard against her lower lip. To ease the pain of the stressful task.
Two hours later, the screaming died down.
Lying on the stone bed, was a more relaxed and beautiful woman. Her chest rose and fell, as she sighed and breathed heavily.
Although she was sweaty and her hair has scuffled, her charcoal-like black skin was shiny and reflecting. glittering from her sweat, she was soaked in.
Her pale face lit up. And her mood immediately brightened, as her cat-like eyes reflected a glint of cheer and joy.
Tears quickly poured down her cheeks when she saw a bloody baby. she reached out her hands to take the newborn from a blood-stained nurse.
As she got hold of it, she drew the newborn baby closer to herself and pressed it against her chest.
Then she caressed, and kissed the baby, as tenderly and sweetly as she could. Exuding all the gracefulness of a mother and child.
Crystal clear tears, detoured and trickled down her beautiful face, to stray away, drops blood, stained on the baby.
She was at the moment, a perfect epitome of pure and unconditional love.
However, in her most gentle and senile moment yet, her beauty, multiplied by manifolds. That even mother nature herself became jealous and couldn't resist stealing a peek.
Then, the drizzling stopped. And the dark clouds, paved way for a moment to allow a column of sunlight, settle on the hut.
"May the Gods be praised!
my queen, it is a bouncing baby boy."
A fat woman, who was a nurse–the chief maiden nurse, besides the queen, cheeked in. She was smiling from ear to ear.
"yes my queen, you've given birth to a prince, the gods do favor your house."
Another nurse remarked. she too was happy.
"You're right, the gods have finally smiled on us.
ovaide ovaide
osamudiamen ovaide
ovaide ovaide"
A third nurse concurred, before raising a traditional song of thanksgiving.
The other maiden nurses then went on dancing. A traditional dance, that involved swaying, moving from left to right in a rhythmic manner.
Although the queen wanted to join them in the dance, she was too tired to do that. So instead, she started swaying, moving the baby left to right as she sat on the stone bed.
They danced for a while when suddenly,
"Oh No!"
The chief maiden screamed as she was taken aback, her eyes popped out, and her wrinkled face twisted into a complicated expression.
As she stared at the baby in the queen's arm.
Her face plastered with shock, and her mouth kept agape, she seemed to have suddenly discovered something.
"My queen!
There's something wrong with the baby."
Stuttering as she spoke, Chief Maiden, drew nearer to the newborn prince wrapped around the queen's arms.
"Cynthia, what do you mean! What are you trying to say?"
The queen was startled by the sudden statement and change in the behavior of the chief maiden, she narrowed her eyes questioningly, demanding an explanation from the former.
"My queen! Ha–haven't you noticed anything about the prince yet."
Still stuttering, even as she spoke the chief maiden reached out her hand to the queen intending to take the baby prince.
"what!?
What do mean? stop all this nonsense and tell me what is going on right now!"
The queen, who had naturally run out of patience, yelled at the chief maiden.
She held the baby closer to her chest, refusing to give the baby to the former.
The chief maiden who had been lost in her thought had been so shocked and amazed.
However, upon hearing the queen yell at her, she was taken aback as she jerked.
She immediately realized that she had been keeping the queen in suspense.
"I'm sorry your highness, I didn't mean to keep you in suspense."
when the chief maiden spoke, she still had her eyes fixed on the newborn prince, there was a trace of fear and concern etched on her face as she looked at the baby prince.
This behavior only ended up infuriating the queen further.
"What is wrong with you! are you.."
the queen was about to pour out her rage when she suddenly noticed something.
she quickly looked down, at the child pressed against her chest.
By this time, the air had already almost become tangible due to tension.
The other maidens had already realized what the chief maiden meant to say and had been intending to tell the queen.
Sticky goosebumps and sweat was all over their face and bodies and had also soaked the greater part of their wrappers. With eyes, so heavy, they looked at the queen desperately.
Even so, she also seemed to have realized that something was odd about the newborn prince.
She glared at the chief maiden briefly, then settled her sight back on the newborn prince.
Seeming completely disoriented, after a heartwrenching discovery, her beautiful chiseled–like, v–face instantly grew bumps and became lumpy.
Heaves of sweat pooled out from her body and completely drenched her clothing. Then she started breathing heavily.
She felt, her eyes become too heavy and a feeling of dizziness overtake her senses, she struggled to suppress the fainting–feeling she was having and kept trying to utter a word.

"It didn't cry.Oh God,Osanobua! please help me!oh no!the prince is not breathing either!"The queen said under her breath. Naturally, she was not a very strong woman, but when it came to her newborn baby boy — even as she was feeling the urge to pass out, she gave it her all to remain conscious."C–C–Cynthia it is not crying. Cynthia, my baby is not crying!what did you do?Cynthia what did you do!? Why is my baby not crying, Cynthia?"The queen had become luny, at that moment. She questioned the chief nurse as she pointed her forefinger, at the poor-old-woman."your highness.I'm sorry I didn't hit the prince to make him cry, it's just that I got carried away by the joy, and I started dancing, my queen.I didn't do anything to the prince, my queenplease forgive me!"Now that the queen had become crazy, and was accusing Cynthia, the poor-old-woman was tre

"Could this be real?" The chief priest murmured to himself.Although the queen pleaded with the chief priest to talk to her, he seemed oblivious to her request. rather, he kept staring at the baby prince, keeping a full, stride-length distance from the child.The queen finally decided to wait it out and instead, just watch out, for the next event."What did you say is wrong with the prince again?"after a moment of intense stare, the chief priest finally asked."He hasn't cried at all, since I gave birth to him today. and he doesn't breathe either." replied, the queen."Humph.Is that all?"

The figure—with two bloodshot eyes puffing out red gas and a body fuming with steam, was a completely naked male.The Bloody Red Humanoid Figure stepped out of the pond of steaming blood; levitating.His empty eyes were mechanical and devoid of any emotion.

You called yourself the 'God Of War',haha." The Identical laughed gently, then continued"The truth is, I absolutely find that statement, falsely alarming, but still, quite intriguing. You see, I'm yet to know just how powerful you are, to bear such a title." The Identical spoke, in a yet superior manner that was too at ease and unbothered.Meanwhile, The Identical was still completely naked, and his proper–size, bloody phallus was still cheerily hanging about itself, between his leg, dangling without a care in the world, with each motion, ev

Everyone except the young hero who stayed back and attended to Sonia, keeping her company and ensuring she had proper clothing and conversing with her when he could, though there was not much discussion because she was too depressed to chat.Her beautiful face had become swollen from tears and her eyes, white like a film of porcelain, glinted with a myriad of depressing emotions.Her wet cheeks quivered as she talked in a low murmur to herself. She sat opposite the young hero before a campfire that he had made earlier — covering herself to keep warm with a piece of fabric that was given to her.she stared into the fireplace as vague emotions subtly quelled her. Her eyes reflected the glint of the slow-burning, flickering yellow flame as she cried.If love was all she wan

A scathing silence prevailed. Swirling winds pervaded and perused with soft kisses and chilling breath over the flesh of the group of persons standing as it whistled by in the coolness of the evening. A closer look showed who these people were. Sally, Igbins, and the unknown young hero were at a standoff — They eyed each other with awkward strikes of hateful intents. "Who–who does he think he is! W–w–why did he disturb them!?" A boy squawked tremulously, stuttering and shaking with disbelief. "Wait O!! I think We need to teach this guy a good lesson!..." One person wailed. Others cried and bellyached because of the young hero's move on thwarting all efforts to assault Sonia, "Oh no!" Cried a youth with a bald head. "I was also hoping for a chance to screw her once those other guys were done with her first. Arrrgh!... Why? Why do you always have to interfere...? Such a pig!!!... He deserves to die..." That

There was a split moment thrilling sound that rung out followed by a potent bang, then a brief moment of darkness— slightly longer than a blink of an eye, followed, for igbins. He felt his body soar through the air before a numbing pain crept over his buttocks.Thud!"Aaa!" He wailed, as his eyes shot wide open, he had suffered a shocking crash. The breath rushed out of him, then a spasming pain spread through his body, putting him in agony.Igbins looked about his immediate environment but discovered that he was no longer with the naked Sonia. 'How come?' His mind worked a query that needed no answer. It was a rhetorical question that even he knew the answer to. After all, It's not as if he didn't know he had been displaced. He had felt a force fling him through the air just now, certainly, he would not be in the same spot where he was before.Nevertheless, he still felt the need to ascertain how he managed to involuntarily change his p

"Igbins, You!" She yelped and quickly tried to use her hand to hide her completely naked breast."Humph. What about me?"Igbins grunted, retorting sharply, and got directly in front of her, not intending to give her too much space."Stop now. Please stop." She wailed. And tried to slap Igbins on his chest. However, "ahh—" She squealed in panic when he caught her hands and forcefully took her back against his front. Wrapping his arms around her, to constrain her."Do you think you can blackmail me with guilt?" He said, whispering, with harsh breaths that brushed against her right ear."No, no, leave me alone." She whimpered, struggling to free herself from his hold.However, in the next moment,TRAAAH! A tearing sound rang out.That sharp, sudden, sound pierced her ear and thumped her heart into a discordant beating. She dre

When she bumped into Igbins, who was already coming back, along with the others to meet the prince."You! You! You!... " She slapped him in the chest several times, with each 'you', that she said."You murdered your people!How could you be so heartless as to butcher the people from your team? Without even showing the slightest empathy.You're too wicked!" She groaned"Why! why are you so shocked!? Did I not kill Ogen a while ago, why can't I now kill those guys? Tell me, why are you so bothered about them. Humph." Igbins scoffed. Taking hold, of her slapping-hands."It's not as like I even know them! They say we're a team uhn! Humph. Team my foot!"

Thinking about it, he immediately communicated with his Ancestral spirit to return, before he spoke again."My prince." He said in a manner that suggests he was protesting. Although he had already called back his ancestral spirit."I know... Sally. I know that you're angry, but just let it slide this time, for me. Please?" Prince Idubor spoke calmly. "Also, remember she said she would do anything and she has indeed done something." As he spoke, he held Sally's hand briefly, before letting go of it.Then he walked towards the injured Igbins, who was still lying on the ground of yellow soil."You. you're really a strong warrior, you could have beaten Sally, even, if he didn't call out his ancestral spirit to fight you instead." Idubor said to the young warrior, complimenting his strength."What! That invisible human is his spirit power!?" Igbins, who was so shocked by the revel

Sally, who had already reached the peak of his rage, hustled first, to meet Igbins. While Igbins wielded his spear to meet head-on with Sally.Clang! Clang! Clang!The sword and spear clashed several times with the powerful outburst of the blast, and a cascading parade of sparks, which fizzed out and dissipated In the air.Their attacks did not comprise of any special or exotic movement at all. It didn't reflect any masterly skills or practice, it was just a simple swipe and block motion done repeatedly, but with so much power.After a short while, dominated by the shrill cry of weapons, Sally was finally pushed backward. He staggered slightly but quickly found his footing again.Then, he tightened his grip on his sword to quieten its reverberation."Humph!"He sneered before pushing forwards again. Slashing at the body of Igbins.However, it

"Listen. Third prince!" Igbins turned to look at the prince, his tone was reprimanding. "We have not had any issues before. Your people had even helped to save my people not too long ago, so I can't understand why you approve of it, that your people, should steal from us." Igbins said with a raised voice, his heart had started to slow burn with suppressed anger.He had already taken the prince's silence before, as acquiescence to Sally's claim. Meaning, it was The Prince, who gave his team permission to rob others.Although Igbins expression was fry-red from anger, it was also visibly noticeable, that he was doing all his best to manage his emotions.One would doubt if this was the same Igbins who recently killed Ogen, a young warrior just because the hapless youth spoke to him arrogantly.And yet, he was taking worse insults from Sally now. Though he was retaliating the best way he could, by dropping indirect

All eyes trained off, to the direction of the clap, and rested on the figure of a young boy, no older than eleven years old."Awesome!Haha, what a hard man!You know what? You truly deserve to be a leader of your team. If only you did not die today."It was the prince Idubor.He praised and applauded, at the dead body of the young warrior, Ogen, who had already given up all evidence of life."Yes...my prince. He's really solid. Even I thought he would budge. but he didn't.I'm impressed" Sally, as usual quickly added his voice in support."It's just a shame that it ended too soon for him." he finished.Ever since the beginning of the conflict, the prince and his band of warriors had been standing aside.
