The people of Hilton Bale stopped tossing stones the moment Daniel dropped dead, and with lowered heads, walked out, heading to their respective homes in sadness and pain. Their minds were crowded with thoughts of what they would do about their drinking water, which brought fresh tears to their eyes."See what you all did to him!" Aggrieved, Daisy wailed, swerving around with a scowl on her cute face. However, her eyes widened, and her jaws slacked when she found not even a single soul around the vicinity again. Everywhere was silent, and only the growls of animals and the singing of birds were heard. The sky was already dimming little by little, signifying that it was almost dusk, leaving her heart banging profusely. She stared back at the breathless Daniel, whose face had become so white with tears flowing freely from her eyes."What do I do now? He can't die this way. There must be something that can bring him back to life. There must be something!" She babbled in tears, her heart

Theodora appeared in her chambers looking not so good. She ran her hand through her hair and hissed, looking around her chamber as if she was looking for something. But seemingly not seeing whatever it was, she gritted her teeth with a scowl on her face and removed her robe and underwear before sitting down on her bed while fidgeting with her fingers.She lowered her head in between her knees and after what seemed like an eternity, suddenly stood up and began pacing about, her face blank and her eyes so cold."What was that light that skyrocketed him out of the stream?" She tilted her head and scratched her hair. "What was yet that other light that brought him back to life and healed him? I know I'm not behind all that. But if not me, who then? "This is just so confusing. And the fact that I can't grasp my hand on the answers to them is pissing me off right now. Gosh!" Still pacing about while babbling, she placed a finger into her mouth and began suckling on it as if in thoughts and

"What do I do now?" She asked staring around and having nothing else in mind walked out. Daniel and her parents at the sound of her footsteps turned and stared closely at her."What's wrong baby? You don't look good."She sighed, strolled to him, sat on his laps, and placed her head on his chest without saying anything but yet her breathing was so raspy."You are not saying anything baby girl. What's wrong? Talk to us.""Yes, sweet daughter. Talk to us. We are here for you so speak up.""There's no water to prepare food and I'm so hungry right now. I've not eaten since morning."Mr. Robert and his wife exchanged glances without saying anything. They already heard of what happened while they were coming back from their stroll and they ain't ones who put blames on people for their mistakes so that's why they didn't get pissed at Daniel when they saw him.Everywhere became so silent as no one had anything to say. Several minutes passed and Daisy began groaning in pain. She started rubb

"What did you just say, father?" Daniel asked with a broad smile."I said what if he's in allegiance with Theodora? Like, what if both know each other? What if they are friends?""What if he's not? Our problem is that we conclude a lot father. Like, what if they haven't even seen each other before? What if they are so far apart from each other?""You are also not sure baby. Going to that wizard is 90-10% chances. You have a 90% chance of death and 10% chance of survival.""If that is the risk I have to take to free Hilton Bale from Theodora then to be frank I'm willing to take it, baby. I'll do everything in my power to send that wicked witch to where she belongs. Which is six feet beneath the surface.""Hmm," Mrs. Ryleigh exhaled, stood up, and strolled to him. She cupped up his jaw and stared into his eyes. "You're like a son to me even though you are my daughter's lover Daniel. I love you as much as I love Daisy if not more. I can't sit back and watch you walk into your death. Nope

"Why does she have to do this!" Daniel uttered profanity as he ran so fastly until he came before the weeping people who had their dead babies in their arms. All of them had swollen eyes and soaked up torn clothes. Their clothes dripped of both tears, sweat, and blood.'I don't think father explained this so well. Havoc is just a little word to consider the sight before me right now' he surmised and didn't even know when his knees hit the ground as tears flowed freely from his eyes and clouded his vision.Daisy and her parents arrived at that instant and shook their heads at the sight before them as a heart-wrenching pain coursed through them. They strolled to Daniel and raised him.Just as Daniel stood up with the help of Daisy and her parents he thought of Theodora and started wondering where she might be.Not getting answers from his thoughts he looked far behind the people and there she was still killing and ripping babies with a huge scowl on her face and a smile on her lips.He
