The Mystery Of Zimicah Chapter 11
After their small talk Adanna, Daliah, Ekon and Ama left the room, each giving a valid excuse.Ekon and Ama told the remaining two that they had to consult with the villagers. Daliah saying he had to pack and Adanna telling the same thing as she promised to do it for Alyssa as well.Left alone, Alyssa looked at Zane who didn't spare her a glance.He had tied his hair at his side as he sat on a reed mat resting his back on the wall. His long hair fell on his shoulder continuing to his front chest.Looking at his pale face Alyssa cleared her throat and moved in front of him. She knelt on her knees waving a hand in front of his eyes which were at that time looking at his lap."How are you feeling?" She asked trying to start a conversation. She knew he wouldn't reply to her but she had to try. She had searched for him from the fields back to the center of the village. And after all the long struggle she finally found him here at the village head's house. She didn't expect to find out th

Climbing up to the peak of the mountain the little group reached their destination.There were some few houses that were spaced unlike the ones at the 'Zimicah' Alyssa and Adanna had come to call home. Each was plastered with roofs growing vines on its top.The nature was so green and beautiful. And watching the little hares that were jumping around seeming healthy made the four smile as if they had entered a new world.For sure this land was like a dream to the four who had grown used to seeing things by how they were in the other village. Compared to this place, their home was a living hell.At Zimicah trees were dying, they had infertile soils, drought ruled over them for some years, no adequate water and the people were no longer giving birth. Everything about it was appalling."It looks beautiful." Alyssa squealed as she pointed at the vines as she looked around, staring at the trees and the little hares that were close by jumping around.Zane followed behind her, his eyes only o

The two girls left no details unsaid as they told the others of their lives since their young days. After all it was needed to find out exactly where they came from. It wasn't a coincidence for a double existance of two places with one name.What bothered the three men is that they knew nothing of this land. It's location or anything that could give them a clue. It was going to be a difficult quest.Fillion sat with the rest as he got busy with jotting down important facts. The ink was about to finish as he wrote those tales, the appearance of the village, the things that used to be found on it, the traditions the people followed. The food they ate. The animals that lived on it. Everything that had been said had been considered an important clue as to where they could start."Since birth, we have seen Zimicah as a normal home. If it wasn't for that storm I don't know what would have happened to us." Alyssa kept on telling the three of that place she thought she belonged."Storm?" Zane

The blue floating flames kept lighting the cave walls as the little group searched for some clues. "What do you think?" Alyssa asked looking around. She was a little excited to return with everyone. She had not forgotten the fright they had felt that lonely night. But she couldn't keep on fearing being in the same place and also this time around she wasn't only with Adanna and this made her feel more at ease. She really liked everyone's company. "So you two... you're saying when you woke up you were already in this cave." Fillion questioned instead wanting to confirm his theories before going on with his investigations. Even after all the search, there wasn't anything that came to his mind.He had activated a spell to keep off any danger from coming in their way. Whilst looking around he had a thought, 'There isn't any holes or tunnel nearby is there.'Answering to his questions, Alyssa said: "Yes that's right, other than seeing that black hollow thing and blacking out... we know n

The three men stepped into the forest, the fog still thick as it dispersed leaving a path for Zane and his two friends. It seemed as if the mist had high respects for him and had obeyed his presence leaving a narrow pathway that was clear and curved at the end. They all walked on to the opposite way from the one they had visited a while ago. Treading on the path that was created for them. "So back to your spot again." Fillion started as he looked at the familiar surroundings. He had visited the place the last time he had come by. It was about five years ago when he had thought of checking on his sickly friend. He had come mid February the time when the Chief had been desperate to handle his last born. Zane at that time, had been throwing tantrums.. cussing at the two elders. He was a head ache, but no one dared to discipline him. It would have been easy to clap his pale cheeks leaving tints of red as a mark for the lesson taught but nothing like that really happened. Words were in a

It is funny how the two teams came up with excuses each trying to catch up with their teammates."Sorry guys we can't hang out for today, we have pending girls' issues these following days. It will take at least four days. Sorry guys." Adanna relayed the message on behalf of the team. This was hinting for their menstruation period. It was obvious that the other three wouldn't ask anything more. What they didn't know is that the boys thought, "this is our chance"They had spent the night thinking over what to say to the three. But now... they didn't need to do anything."It's okay." They all told their loved ones. Parting at that juncture Alyssa, Adanna and Theresa took on torwards their house. Don't think they were just going to rest or anything. No! They sneaked out of the village went through the kraals. It was past noon when they took off to the field, stepping on the dry cowdung which was to be used in farming. At least that is its purpose but how could it be used in a drought

Being weary of the two creatures in front of them, Zane tightened his hold on her. Alyssa was very scared as she shivered, holding tight on his clothes. She was reminded of that serpent. Surely she wasn't ready to go through all that again.Zane observed the two giant snakes moving about in front of them. One was green with shiny scales and eyes that were black and slit. It exposed its tongue moving torwards the two. It was grotesque and made Alyssa tremble with extreme fear. The second snake was brown in colour and very slim. It's eyes were black as well. It slided on the grass hissing and shrieking at the two who were stuck to each other like glue.The two unsightly creatures advanced torwards them as they started circling around their space whilst shortening the distance between bringing in the stench from their unwashed skins. Their long tubular -like bodies almost nearing their targets.Zane knew that they had no other way out. If he really wanted to protect her then he had to t

Opening her eyes to a new day, Alyssa felt them hurt as she was greeted by the natural light that was entering the room from the window. Looking infront of her, she found Zane embracing her to his chest. Their bodies were touching, what separated them was only the thin clothes which they were wearing. She felt her heart thump frantically as her cheeks heat tinting a deep red that could be hardly seen on her chocolate cheeks. She was too close to him. Closer than they had ever been.They were both sleeping on some blankets as they covered their bodies with a navy sheet. She looked at his pale face with his eyes closed. His eyelashes seemed long and his pink lips too inviting. She was entranced by his beauty. He still looked very handsome even in his sleep. Feeling her pillow move, she realised she had been sleeping on his arm all night. 'I hope he didn't mind.' She thought attempting to rise and sit.She was almost half way stretching her back so that she could sit, when an ache hit h

The Mystery Of Zimicah Chapter 30
Sean felt so lonely and decided to go to the kitchen and look for his mother. He was so little and so his parents decided to leave all the doors open in case their little one needed to look for them. He proceeded towards the kitchen area as he peeked through the door frame. He watched as his father affectionately touch his mother's face. She had fallen asleep whilst leaning on his shoulder forgetting that she was cooking for her little boy. When Zane saw him at the door he put his finger on his lips to shush his little boy before guiding him to come to him. Sean did as told as he made his way to his parents, he was lifted on Zane's lap as he also looked at his mother's sleeping face. Alyssa had been deep in her sleep. Last night she had not taken enough sleep so after he had told her what he admired about her, he had coaxed her to sleep.She was having quite a lovely dream until she was led on a lane back to that fake Zimicah.She suddenly discovered that she had been brought to tha

Zane and Alyssa were very thankful to the people who had come to their son's birthday celebration. They noticed that he was very happy as he played with Kyra and the other kids. The party had passed and all the visitors were going back to their respective homes.Early in the morning, the couple freshened up after having a wonderful sleep together. They prepared to go bring him home. The two knew he might not agree but still, they had to give it a go. "My love... why don't we leave him there? He is close to us and also Ekon will be very happy to let him stay. And on the good side, I will get to spend more time with you. Hmm..." He suggested hiding his true motive which was related to what he couldn't finish an hour ago."No, you're spoiling him too much and also I am not going to fall for that. I cannot enter the beast's nest whilst knowing what trouble it will bring. Look at me I didn't get enough sleep. I would rather let my son deprive me of sleep." Zane listened as he felt the exci

It only took four years to transform Zimicah from what it had become. They all worked really hard. The trees which had once withered were regrown and lively. The leaves were so green and the trunks so strong so different. The forests looked very beautiful and also made the little village prosperous. The fields were now promising and the rain poured on numerous occasions. The soils were becoming fertile due to the cattle that were feeding on the grasses growing in the forests. They increased also amounting to more cow dung. The villagers planted crops and food came to a point where it wasn't a problem anymore.Zane and Alyssa changed it to a better place. And in the way, they grew a lot closer to one another. Their love grew deeper. Their friendships grew stronger as well.The land they lived in now looked far more better than that fake world that had been everything to her. Now, this Zimicah was her real home."My love where is everyone," Zane asked whilst joining her at the center o

The next day Zane started strolling around looking for some fresh air. It didn't feel good spending a week in his room. Of course, he was accompanied by his love. They were holding hands as they moved at a pace that was slower than a tortoise. Might be exaggerating but still, they were walking really slow."Where are we going?" She asked letting him lead her to who knows. Zane smiled as he made a stop through the fog. Alyssa knew that it was the forest they first met. He lifted his hand and chanted a spell which removed the barrier that had been hiding that little house. "Where is this?" She was surprised to see a house appear from thin air. Zane pulled her close as they entered inside. Alyssa looked around seeing the dusty walls and floors. She glanced at the hammock bed before she was lifted up and put on it. He also joined her as they relaxed together."You didn't tell, what is this place really." "Used to be my comfort zone but if you want we can sometimes come and relax. It is
The Mystery Of Zimicah Chapter 26
Five days in pain, Zane kept sleeping in his room as he tried to find some healing. He was lucky that he coughed quite a little bit. Alyssa was by his side. Looking after his every needs. She did not sleep as she would hold his hand and sometimes hug him when she felt very lonely. She wanted him to open his eyes and smile her way. She missed him too much. It was really hard seeing him like that. He looked as if he was a ghost. The poison inside his body had been neutralized with his own. He couldn't wake up because he was too weak and also it was a new month. For him a new month meant hell for the first five days. He would have headaches, chest pains, stomach aches and sometimes he would have his whole body writhing with so much pain.Alyssa sat beside his sleeping form as she watched over him. She yearned for his yellow eyes. Those past six days had been filled with nothing but sadness and worry. She worried he might not ever wake up. "Come on Zane... wake up. I don't want to see y
The Mystery Of Zimicah Chapter 25
At the present, Alyssa faced the evil woman in front of her. She did not know her but Dien had brought her into their senseless revenge. Zane was still by her side embracing her, as he shielded her from his mother. Mother....he wouldn't call her that. He felt nothing for her. She was just a stranger trying to bring havoc to his peaceful life.Maybe, if she had acted like one then he would have considered it. And maybe if they had spent lots of time together then he would have felt hurt and betrayed. If she had been a mother then he would feel the need to make her stop. If he remembered the little time they had spent together then it would have made him question what had changed her. If he hadn't suffered because of her then he wouldn't have felt a strong feeling to end her. And if she hadn't tried to kill him and Ekon then he would be free of that illness. At that time when she had tried to kill both of them, he took it all by himself. His strong powers had made him sense the danger o
The Mystery Of Zimicah Chapter 24
Some say when you kill a snake, burn it or if you leave it in the open you will find it gone. It can come back to life. And as odd as that sounds it had been what happened after their fight. Dien fell down the cliff and really died. A week passed as she lay on that spot. She couldn't feel the coldness down below. Her purple snake body kept on enduring the heat during the day.It is one night after those seven days when she miraculously opened her eyes, feeling her body numb and she had no energy to move. Her stomach made growling sounds that frightened creatures that were near her. She couldn't shift and the only way she could move was after eating something. It didn't have to be any animal. She really wanted the meaty, less bony human. She wished for one to end up to her. And just like that, an old man was passing by. He had gotten late looking for firewood. It had been his habit of taking shortcuts through that place. Just by smelling him come her way, made Dien's heart pound loud
The Mystery Of Zimicah Chapter 23
"Dad where is mom?" Little Zane asked. He had seen that most kids in the village had mothers but he didn't remember his own. Or even had any memory of her looks.Years had passed since that day. Ade had lied to his sons, telling them that she had ran away. He couldn't bring himself to tell them the truth. It was quite harsh and he had also not quite fully accepted everything yet. The fact that his love had been quite a different person or to say creature confused him much. When he had brought the fake news to his two lovely sons, Ekon had believed him but Zane knew nothing and also didn't understand what they were busy talking about.Ade raised his two children on his own. Even though it was difficult he somehow managed to make it through. It really hurt being reminded of her. Sometimes he would get really angry when Zane brought her up.Just like that time he had asked of her.".... Stop asking." He would yell feeling very irritated. She was the worst memory of his past. He never lik
The Mystery Of Zimicah Chapter 22
WE GO BACK TO THE TIME DIEN MET ADE. THIS IS THE STORY OF THIS COUPLE AND HOW ZIMICAH CAME TO BE WHAT IT IS.In a village deep in the mountains, there lived a woodcutter. He stayed inside a one-roomed house which was thatched and built with mud and poles. He had a very obedient son, and the two lived quite a simple life at least that was before Dien came into their lives. All was turned upside down by just visiting the nearest village to shop for some necessities. It is that one day when he decided to take his son with him. And at that time Ade was really young and naive. Whilst his father was shopping, the little boy wandered off and lost his way. He ended up at a house that was close to the market. It looked different from the rest. He moved forward wanting to take a closer look but before he could enter the gate a girl that had purple hair and red eyes blocked his way. "Father come look at this thief!" She had shouted to the Chief of the village. Dien had lived with both parents
