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

    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

    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 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

    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.

  • The Mystery Of Zimicah   Prologue

    If Zimicah is viewed on the highest mountain in the area, the people would say that it is a lovely paradise. The dense colourful forests gave an aesthetic effect that attracted most animals and varieties of birds, some white, pink, black any kind that could be found on the planet earth. They could be in different sizes, some giants and some small. All the impossible could be seen on this tiny nation. It is such a beautiful place with much surprising entities living on its grassy surface. The society was at the centre of the forests, with few people residing in it. Houses were built spaced from the next one as all of their grassy roofs took shade from the giant trees that could almost reach the blue skies. Ever since it had been founded, Zimicah had nurtured a maximum of six Chiefs who were all blood related, each with different styles on how they reigned over the tiny nation. It is after fifty years and the time has come, time for the new generation to take over where they had all

    "Once upon a time, a man wandered around a vast land, looking for a home he could call his own. He passed through icy lands, grassy fields. He encountered vicious animals that tried to rob him of his life. What he only thought of was to find that place he had seen in his dream.Those gigantic trees that could almost reach the skies. Those flocks of birds dancing around those trees. Those lions that fed on mushrooms. A land where there is peace and harmony.He travelled for some years until he reached that place as he gazed at it from the top peak of a mountain. He just flexed his lips as the word 'Zimicah' sounded from his mouth. He was ...."The little chatters from the children who sat on the ground listening attentively, made the teen telling the tale feel content as she shared the story that had made her jittery when she was still their age.They were under a tree shade, taking temporary cover from the scorching sun.

    "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.

    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
