I walked all alone until I reached what appears to be the centre of the woods. There were many good spots where an individual could sit down to rest or meditate. I was confused because I don't where to sit.Finally, I found a spot which I thought will be great. That spot was beneath an oak tree. There was a huge rock under the tree, where we were I sat down and allowed the ambient breeze to feel my lungs. They were so cool and comforting that I began feeling sleepy. Indeed, I fell half-asleep within a few minutes.A few minutes into my light sleep, I began feeling something crawling through my skin. I was reluctant to remove it at first. The trance I found myself in was not something I could easily overcome therefore, I closed my eyes tight and let the thing crawl past me, whatever it was, I don't care!A few seconds Later, I felt like the crawling objective has stopped moving. I could now feel like something was resting on my right leg, just after my toenails. I was compelled to open
I trained with Deborah for a month before, I perfected my skill. I received specific instructions on how to break the Alpha's curse. A few days later, after putting me through some tests, she told me, "Louis, the time has come for you to fulfil your purpose. You must do whatever you have to do, to avenge the death of your loved ones. Remember that Magaritha must be stopped at all costs. Never again shall she inflict pain and cruelty on people! You are one of the hopes left in our world. Make the Witches proud by killing Magaritha and thus, ending her wicked rule."We were at the front of her small cottage when she gave me those little pieces of advice. I was really to leave for Muldoch. I was excited at first but when I realized that I was never gonna see Deborah again, I began feeling nostalgic. I felt like I didn't want to miss her because she has been so good to me. Deborah noticed the expression on my face and realized how worried I was. "What's that look on your face, Louis?""N
I believed I will never see them again, the land was empty and the road was free. There will be attackers or bandits to intimidate me, if they should do otherwise then, they will be met with an iron fist. For hours I rode through the lonely land, there was no sign of any human rather all I met on my way were trees and animals. Most of the animals I met on the way were only hunting for food in the hot sun and I guess they are adapted to live in that kind of environment.Just when I thought I have seen them all, it was almost evening by now, I saw them in the far distance yelling and coming in my direction. I was not sure if they have spotted me yet. I guess I was the only one who has seen them. I slowed down and allowed them to draw nearer to me. When they were only a dozen of metres away, I could them arguing among themselves about my identity. Some believed that it was Loius whom they had seen while others were sceptical and held the opinion that, I must be a new girl and not Louis.
He stopped walking around me suddenly and stared hard with a wicked facial expression."I believe you will not let your stupid instinct deceive you, Louis! Don't let that deceive you, I'm begging you with all the energy in me. Just do as I say and all will be well with you, Loius! Without any other delay, this is all that I seek, I want to bang those booties of yours!" He smiled with contempt and looked back to speak to his men. "Isn't that right boys?" They all shouted at the top of their voices in excitement. I wondered if they were in support of the action their leader was about to take. If they are in full support of him then, I will have no other option but to punish all of them together, should Dan make any wrong move on me. Even though I couldn't believe it but the mood among his men seemed to support the fact that, they were in support of Dan.I remained silent and tried not to strike first. I will never go on the offensive rather, I will play a defensive role since, I was con
As I watched like a sheep that we about to be slaughtered, Dan laid his two hands on my neck and shook me vigorously before, shoving me to the ground, to the cheers of his men and himself."What are you gonna do about it, huh? You looser!" He kicked my legs before trying to move them apart so that he could have his way. I watched him pull his shorts down and spat on me. Much to my dissatisfaction, his spit fell on my mouth prompting me to spit them out immediately. The remaining spit fell on my cheeks, I used a piece of my clothing to wipe them off.I was disgusted by what was going on. I pitied Dan and his men, if he knew what was coming next, I doubt he would have indulged himself in a stupid act. My line action was pure defence, it was a decision I have already made to myself that, I will never strike first. That was what happened, I didn't strike first instead, Dan and his men did and for that, they are gonna pay heavily.I stood to my feet only when he was done pulling my legs ap
They all stared at me as I held my ground and remained silent. There was no atom of fear in me instead, I expected them to run from what was coming. "You bastard!" Began one of them who seemed to be their second in command. He was the same individual who pulled Dan by his clothes when the latter could not speak. "What have you done you, bitch?" He began walking in my direction but, I never moved instead, I stood my ground to see what he was up to. Some of the Bandits began walking behind him as he slowly approached me. "She has done nothing!" Objected one of them who held the view that Dan was only pretending to be an idiot so that, their spoils would be left for their leader all alone. "You saw it," he turned to face his comrade, "you all saw it as well. This poor lady did nothing to Dan, I'm sure that he is pretending. Yes, all that he has been displaying are nothing but pretence. I can say that again, and nothing is gonna happen because I'm telling the truth!" He had hardly fin
In the blink of an eye, I made the two men sent after me kneel. It was as if an unseen force had made them do that. The other men yelled in fear, I guess but, the second in command of the Bandits was still adamant. He doesn't want to admit defeat yet. I discovered that he was willing to go to any extent just to win. Without thinking twice or considering the lives of his men, the second in command ordered the remaining men to fetch me."Get that Witch! We will roast her body of the stakes!" He commanded all of them to come after me but, he stayed behind. I couldn't tell why he decided to stay back despite the face of danger he sent his men into. Anyway, I have made it clear in my heart that the second in command of the Bandits will not go unpunished. I was going to punish him sooner or later.The men ran after me in their dozens. I knew it will be disastrous if I allow them to get closer to me. To avoid such a disaster I must stop them before they get to me. With a snap of my right fin
I turned my attention to the other men still hanging in the air. They were in no position to threaten me again instead, they were begging for their lives. They were pleading at the top of their voices. Slowly, I approached them."Why should I have you released?" I asked them."We have changed! W will never go back to our old life again if you give us another chance to live," said one of the Bandits."Speak for yourself and not for the others," I told him. "Alright, mam! I'm a changed person, I will never go back to my old life," he corrected himself.The others could not wait. They quickly joined to declare how they had changed. Every man was speaking for himself but, was I ready to listen to them? That question was left for me to answer. Their fate was in my hands, as it stands now."Why should I trust all of you? Why should I believe all that you are saying? Do you think you could deceive me? Do I look like someone who could be deceived?""No, Mam! We are not going back to our old
