Where Onishi landed was dry ground, and the illegitimate prince held his dislocated left ankle for a while and groan silently in pain. Since the moon is glaring in the sky, coupled with the numerous stars shining their tiny brightness towards the earth, Onishi was able to discern his environment. So he tiptoed silently with an uncomfortable countenance, arrived at the front of a wire mesh and stood undecided at his next step. "How am I going to scald over this iron?" Onishi soliloquises alone, stretched his hand towards the mesh, and that was a costly mistake. "Oh my gosh!" He screamed out as he was flung off by the electric current on the mesh, and he lay disoriented for a while until he regain his equilibrium.As the adage goes, if the way forward is blocked, then the way backwards should be embraced. Without being advised, Onishi ambled toward the window of his room, then halted with open mouth at the height he had jumped. "Little wonder I got my ankle dislocated!" He exclaimed
The whole of Johji Inn was swept and washed, and the ladies of service arranged themselves along the hallway and start their morning chatters.Far off, three beautiful ladies in pants and braziers were lolling over the wall of the hallway, and their discussion was in a whisper."Your friend didn't spend a night at the palace. Aren't you people thinking what am thinking?""What's is your thought? She may be discharged because she was found blameless, and not because she has nothing funny with the royal family.""She is a member of the black ninjas, and was sent here to replace Jade-. I bet the royal family were afraid of her, and this is the reason why she was given a free hand to do as she likes.""Did you have any proof of this gossip? Or your accusation is baseless as usual.""See this lady seeking for proof when the truth is glaring-. Haha, here she comes.""Have you seen her two buddies today? They didn't join us for morning chore.""They were forming big gals because their friend
Onishi was sick because of the cold that entered his body through the night, and the illegitimate prince was laid on a table in a smoky room and was been attended to by a grim-looking man with an overgrown beard.Several eyes feasted on the naked prince and whispering voices boomed louder in the small room. "You are lucky I didn't let the wolves out, otherwise, you would have ended their meal by now.""Let him keep pulling his luck and he will be dead in a few days.""Please let me go. Am going crazy here."Jade entered the room, peered around, then smirked at the sight of the prince on the table as she walked closer and let out, "you are free to go whenever you want. But let me advise you that you won't make it out of this island alive.""Please help me to ascend my father's throne, and I promised you wealth beyond your dream.""Aren't you no longer recruiting mercenaries for the foreigners?""No. All the men recruited so far are only loyal to me, and not to the foreigners. I decide
Onishi walked in the forest for a long time, arrived at the seashore and gazed over the vast area of water that spread as far as his eyes can see.Glancing right and left, and seeing no speedboat around, he was lost on the way forward and sat at the riverside in a forlorn state. "How did my abductor leave this island?" He asked himself, picked up some small riverbed stones and subconsciously hurled them into the ocean before him. Swimming out of this place is insane, yet Onishi would have contemplated the idea if only he had a map or knew the precise place he is. But as it is, he is as blind as a bat, and it would be the greatest of all foolery to swim blindly inside this murky-colour, turbulent ocean.Nevertheless, the prince knew he can't give up. Not now, nor ever. As long as he breathed, he had vowed to fight for what truly belonged to him. It was the suspicious waves of the sea that first caught the deep-in-thought prince, and his eyes were fixed on the moving object that see
It started with some deadly smell emitting from the two extreme rooms belonging to the lady of services inside Johji Inn, and the arrival of heat due to the scorching sun made the smell unbearable and demand immediate intervention."What is smelling from these two rooms, and where are the occupants?" Sheila who was summoned from her section of the managerial quarters asked the ladies loitering around the long and wide hallway."The occupants have not been seen since yesterday, and we do not know what caused this horrible smell.""Break down the doors. We need to find out the cause-, she paused, pointed at one of the open mouth ladies and let out, " go and confirm from the mafia at the gate if the two ladies left this inn.""This door needs the attention of well-muscles males and not for us. I suggest you asked the managers to break it."Sheila turned and glared at the lady who dare object to her order, glanced at the hardwood door, then at the fragile-arms ladies, nodded her head, and
The worst feeling on earth is to be betrayed by loved ones, and only a strong man can forgive such deception. Zuma wasn't excluded, he was as sour as an injured mule when he walked into Andrea's section of the palace to demand the presence of his lover.After thorough checking for concealed weapons, he was admitted into Andrea's quarters, allowed to seat at the lounge in front of her room, and a glass of locally made wine was offered to wetted his throat until his betrothed arrived.The sad-looking mafia was deaf to the romantic song booming from Andrea's room, and his mind was turbulence over the woman whom he had trusted with his love."Trust is earned, not given. Did you trust her?" His subconscious screamed out, and he immediately sighed at his hypocrisy."Of course, I don't trust her. I had kept a lot of secrets from her as well."Nevertheless, the wound from the disloyalty was still fresh when a pretty-looking lady in well-adorned clothing stepped through the dark curtain, wal
We are what they eatBanjo was through with his daily task, took a hot shower and stepped out of the palace's large gate.Due to the rain that had been drizzling since morning, the gaunt-looking mafia was dressed in a sweater with a hood and hopped over puddles of water that fell from the sky.All around him were filled with fog, and he walked for a while, peered into the unseen distance, and then halted. After looking wearily for a while, he knelt on one leg, and a pistol immediately materialized in his hand.A second. Two seconds. Three seconds.The mafia remained immobile with ears raised and eyes darting and he was about to pull the trigger when someone announced from the haze. "Hey, Banjo. We are from the merchants. Lower your gun." "Why hidden under the fog if you are not here for evil purposes? Stepped out now." "Two overly dressed guards stepped out of the trees where they had been hidden, and their physical appearance became noticeable as they wobble closer to Banjo.Apa
After Onishi near death escape, he was seen dancing and singing a lullaby to the crying baby, while the rest of the dwellers were busy playing a chess game and cracking jokes. Their laughter sounded louder than the sound of the rain beating on the roofing sheets, and the merriment on their faces is so contagious to the extent that the grimly-looking prince temporarily forget his initial anxiety, and laugh along with the rest of the gang. "I suggest that Jade should stay here with us forever. Her quips are the reason for the recent amusement in this place." "Aye. She is fun to be with, and there is never a dull moment in her presence." Jade stood up from the floor, patted the back of the laughing men, turned around and walked towards Onishi. "I want you to call Priest and confirm his movement." "Huh! Did you think I will be cooperative towards you guys?" "No. I don't expect you to be agreeable, but I believe we can cajole you to be." "Damn you, Jade. I won't help you to dig my gr
