I stepped into the basement, a swordsman opened the door to let me in. It's been three days since the meeting with the commanders, although everything seemed calm on the surface, only the KWE higher ups knew that it's just the calm before the storm.I walked in the dim lighted room and saw eight females hurdled around each other, they seemed frightened. They all seemed to be from twenty years of age to twenty-three but no more than that. The target was actually the one doing her best to keep them calm. I studied her features for a bit and I couldn't help but think that God took much time to create such a flawless beauty. “Please you can't keep doing this, you can't keep raping us like this.” the target; Diamond Johnson spoke. Her voice sounded sweet and melodious which compliments her beauty, but I didn't dwell on it for I was shocked by what she said. “Rape? Did anyone rape you?” I asked. None of the girls replied. I didn't plan on asking them again as I knew whoever raped them may

We were all currently seated in the meeting hall for briefing. I had told them of how the fifth platoon commander had raped the prisoners and how I punished the traitors. Erik then walked in with a file, he was late but from the smile on his face I guess it was worth it.“Father, Alhaji has been killed, we had three casualties on our side. I have good news as I have located the real target, the male Diamond, he goes by the name; MacArthur, he is in city R.” “Boss, just give the order, Starlet and I will be able to retrieve the target without any hitch ups. No man can resist my charms." Elixir said as she fluttered her eyelashes seductively. “Father hasn't and will never fall for your seduction Elixir, I suggest you mind your words when you say "No man".” “We really shouldn't be fighting, and I agree with Elixir, the both of us can actually bring in the worm with no problems whatsoever.” I sat there listening to the KWE elite members banter with each other. My mind was still on Miss

Inside the school covered in pitch black darkness. The sound of gunshots and screams could be heard. I was sitting on a wooden chair watching the battle in front of me with glee. Kelvin Nguyen was doing his best as he fought against twelve medieval soldiers made of obsidian darkness. Standing behind me were soldiers of similar nature.Kelvin fired more shots as he dodged a sword that would have cleaved him in two. His bullets were absorbed by the black armor of the shadow soldiers. While the shadow soldiers looked unharmed, the same could not be said for Kelvin as his body was now full of ugly laceration and bloodied.“ARGHHHHH!” His scream echoed in the darkness as his right arm fell to the floor. The pain from his severed arm caused him to lose focus, thereby bringing him into a world full of pain as his left arm, right foot and left foot all came clearly apart, severed by the other shadow soldiers.I stood up from the chair and walked towards the limbless man who was screaming in pa

He stared at me for a while and I felt he could see through me and even sense my worries.“Don't worry laddie, it's all fate and destiny, you'll be home in no time” he said before turning to one of the crew member. “Lift Anchor!” “Aye Aye lord Lucius.” And that's how my journey started. Just then the food was brought. When the man gently kept the tray in front of me, Lucius opened the lids and took the initiative to explain. “Here's a fruit salad to help replenish the blood cells and here's a stuffed microwave chicken, I know you don't like pork meat, so I didn't prepare stuffed pig, and here's the chinese noodles or as it's called Chow Ming, it's good for you and it's medicinal, and finally, this is a 1959 cognac wine only fit for Kings. I knew you were coming so I prepared all these for you.” If my earlier reaction was surprise then right now I was shocked and spooked “You knew I was coming?” He smiled “Yes, we've been waiting for you.” It didn't make any sense but the feel

When he said that, I was speechless.I was stunned, no, I was dazed. But I knew I couldn't reject the King's offer in front of his loyal subjects, that would be degrading his authority. So I got down on one knee“My Lord, your servant is overwhelmed with such offer, what I did was merely an act of helping the people.”He smiled and took me up“What you did is what no man was willing to do, and you did it out of the goodness of your heart and not for glory nor for politics, therefore today you shall be son, Prince Maximus.” he said in plain english, but perhaps that's how it sounded to me. It seemed my brain had adjusted to their weird language.The Roman general knelt on one knee“Hail the godsent, Hail Prince Maximus.”Every other soldier knelt as well and the crowd stood up and shouted in unison“Hail the godsent, Hail Prince Maximus, Hail Hail Hail.”I just stood there, opened my mouth but no words could be formed.And just like that I was made a Prince. ***A week later***
