2024-10-29 19:42:56The old man reached into a cabinet on the floor and brought out a bowl. A whole lot of things were thrown into it. Even the half spoilt can of sardine was thrown in the mix. Then he opened a battery and poured the mixture of zinc and manganese dioxide. Then he went out of the treehouse and after waiting for a few moments, he came back and took the bowl with him. "Come! come!!" He invited Derek and Madeline. They followed him down the treehouse. He went into the bushes and came back with a trap and a very unlucky bush rat that was still helplessly struggling for its life in it.
He carefully released the rat from the trap and slaughtered the poor thing with a knife. He drained the blood from its neck and into the blood. After a little more mix, he used the blood as paint and drew simple runes on the ground. As he did, each rune immediately glowed on completion. Both Madeline and Derek looked on in surprise as the runes he had drawn came together, weaving within one another unti

All she wanted was to be moody and in peace. Probably drown her worries in a bottle or two. But these set of unreasonable fools wanted to mess with her already shitty day. The beast men laughed out loud in the obvious provocation. Aesir watched on as Tiny took step after step until she stood before them. All the while, she was steady in her steps and didn't rush. The waiter and the men watched as the small looking figure walked towards the beast-man that had the bottles of wine from the Waiter. "I am thirsty, you took two battles from me." She lifted her head, "You are going to buy me two to quench my thirst and maybe a dozen to quench my anger.""Huh!" The beastman looked at the petite figure in front of him and laughed aloud. "Who the heck was this brat," He thought. From the intonation of the voice, it was obviously a young girl. A very young girl. "Hahaha... Of course young missy, I'll buy you as much as you want if you sit right here." He pointed to his big fat thi

All eyes were on the duo as they left the bar. The bouncer on the floor stood up, looking at the result of the visit of the two he had looked down upon when they were entering the place, he had a mixture of feelings. But the one that really stood out was his gratitude that he had not partaken in it.It had become really dark but the streets were made bright by the different stalls still in business. One would think maybe these guys never slept, and truthfully, most didn't or even if they did, they always had somebody watching over the shop on their behalf. The Waiter took them through the winds and turns of the streets she was obviously very familiar with until there got to a house. It was a two-storey building with its mark everywhere on the building. The place looked very different from all the other buildings around. That was not because most of the other buildings were shops, it was because of the range of activities that were happening before it. Sex workers littered its

Some men attempted to come to pick up the woman from the ground but the sight of Aesir's eyes when he turned and looked at them persuaded them not to try it. The vibe Aesir gave out was that made people feel the urge to be submissive to him. This was one of the many gifts of continually having to put your life on the line over and over again. The chubby man could not take it anymore, he took a pistol from a subordinate and fired it at Aesir.That was the catalyst that prompted the others to also let loose the pellets from their guns. But to their surprise, the moment their guns started shooting, Aesir was no longer in his previous location. He appeared in front of Tiny that was behind the crowd. "You can join now, you know!" He said before disappearing again and appearing in front of a thug. Well, at least that was how it seemed before their eyes.Aesir punched straight to his face before the muzzles of the guns pointed at him again, he had once again disappeared. He k

Tiny woke up with her head banging like the drums in a rock band concert. She sat up from the bunk bed to find that a glass of water and pills had been set aside for her. Courtesy of the shop keeper. She took them and headed downstairs. Derek had called for an early morning meeting. She sat at the round table, only to notice that there was an old man at the table. She at first thought that her banging her was playing tricks on her. But then the old man waved at her .Everyone joined the table one after the other. The shopkeeper wore an apron as she went about serving breakfast at the table. The old man kept looking at the shop keeper like he was seeing a ghost in flesh. Derek saw this and could not help but chuckle a bit. He remembered when he had brought the old man to the market last night and the priceless expression plastered on his face as he saw the different specie of people on the street. The old man was so scared that he held Derek by the arm all the way to the shop.
I AM DESTINY'S MISTAKE Chapter 91: The Assault on new year's
"10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1... Happy new year!!!" It was a full moon night and the streets of the marketplace were lively with celebrations. Some were congratulating one another, some toasted to a prosperous year, some thanked the heavens for seeing the new year and some cuddled in each other's embrace. It was a joyous time like it had always been for every year at least for most.As joyous as it was in the marketplace, just a few kilometres away, a man sat in the chair of a fort behind the great curtains of a waterfall frowning his brows in worry. He was not in any mood to enjoy the new year. Besides, time moved differently for Writers. Their very long life span made appreciating little things like this a dull feeling. What really moved them was the thrill of their cultivation moving forward and the godly manipulation of intelligent life forms. Now that was a real good feeling. The feeling of control and power and dominance.However, unfortunately for him, this nic

Shortly after, a zodiac gate appeared and Derek, Madeline, Lydia, Tiny and even old man Kofi popped out from it. Aesir came out of his hiding spot to welcome them."Incredible! I can't believe how well that worked." Madeline said. Derek smiled feeling quite proud of himself, "Okay now, that would not hold them for long. I extimate ten miutes at most. The fort should be empty enough for us to explore it. Don't forget! we are not here to fight. We go in, grab Mr Walter and Aunt Maria and we are out."Everybody nodded. "Wait!""Yes, Aesir!" Derek turned to him. "I was not there. Please tell me. How did you drag the attention and manpower of the fort?"Derek smiled "Well, it was a combination of both of three of us." He pointed at himself Madeline and old man Kofi. "In truth, Madeline came up with the idea." Madeline smiled shyly, Derek was complimenting her and it made her feel good.The plan went like this. A few days ago, While pondering on how to deal wi

Madeline opened a bag containing full body raincoats. As everyone picked one and put them on, Aesir asked "What's the get up for?""Just put it on, you will be needing it if you want to get into the fort behind the waterfall." Old man Kofi advised. Everybody dawned on the raincoats and Old man Kofi took the lead. the rest followed, but unlike Aesir was expecting, Old man Kofi did not take them to the waterfall. Instead, he took them far back behind it. Down a deep slope of several meters in height and to the entrance of a cave.The cave was wide enough for three people to pass together and as high as seven feet. The ground was muddy and filthy, and the air inside was damp and warm. As they walked in, the group could not help but frown. The stench from the cave was incredible. "Where the heck is this, a drainage?" Aesir asked. "Actually, it is." the crazy old man laughed out loud as he led the way. "Every home has one. this is the best way to get behind the waterfall. No

"Oh! was that a little too much? I'll try to make it a little lighter, but then again, I did say 'bruises'." Ivory gave a charming smile. But to Derek, that smile was anything but charming. That hit just now was practically out of sight. He felt like he had been hit by a moving bus. The only good thing was that the battles he had been through so far had helped to shape his battle sense. His hands had instinctively weaved runes that covered his chest."Not too bad! Not Bad!!" Ivory nodded in satisfaction. "If you could not have defended against that much, I would have doubted the claim that you beat my brother." As Derek got out of the debris of stones and dust, He was hit again before he could get his footing. This time around, he was able to slightly dodge to the side, but the attack still made contact. He was sent flying again, however, as he was about to hit the wall, he was able to twist in time. Using the momentum of the last attack, he shot like an arrow at her. Bring h

"Welcome Madeline, we have been waiting for you!" A voice whispered and she turned about to the sound of the voice.There stood a very tall slim woman. She had on a white crop top that revealed her very slim waist leadingdown to her white blouse. She had a pair of glasses on, and she smiled sweetly to Madeline."Where I'm I!?...And who are you!?" Madeline asked."Follow me! I'll explain" she said, gesturing to Madeline a path that opened up in front of them.Madeline frowned and at first did not want to, but still followed behind the woman taking gentle steps.Through a yellow path in-between trees that surprisingly had both carrots and cabbages growing on them, to a hut on a hill side. Madeline followed, while her eyes examed her environment with nothing but wonder and surprise.At the small hut, the woman entered, and then she gestured for Madeline to follow. Although she did not want to, she had no choice and followed.Madeline thought that her sense of reality was warped because

Aesir willed and his sword acted as an assist as it went straight for the bird's other wing.*Caw!*The eagle screamed in pain. Manila ran straight for it. And mounting it's back, she delivered a crushing blow to its neck.*Caw!* It screamed again. However, she did not stop for a bit and after the fourth blow, the eagle passed out. Derek and Aesir stared at her in surprise as she slowly stood from the eagle's back. She made fierce eye contact with Derek and then looked away. Aesir turned to Derek with a brow up, and Derek raised his hands in surrender, "what I'm innocent. I swear!" "Of course you are." Aesir smiled and walked away.Manila began work immediately. The plan was to use the bird as a distraction for the scorpions so that they could pass.The best way to do this would be for them to make sure that the beast could no longer pick up flight.Manila was unsurprisingly skilled at this. She cut out the feathers of the beast.Aesir and Derek also joined her and helped. Soon eno

"Exactly! So if you can't solve them, why bother about them? Yet, before you lies a problem that deserves you immediate attention which you can or at least try solving. But you are too concerned with the rabbits in the wild to realize that you should first deal with the one on your plate." Priestess Ada adviced.She smiled and walked away, "Don't forget, listen as a passerby and it will flow naturally." Madeline watched the back of the old lady leaving as the words she had just spoken played again and again in her head. She sat crossed leg once more as she continually told herself to let go. Her eyes closed tightly and suddenly the thoughts as expected came once more.This time around, she decided not to quiet it or silence it. Rather she let it flow naturally.At first she couldn't help but be swept up in the thoughts and the different scenarios they played. Some even ended in tragedy. And this made her ache in worry. This was a disadvantage of over active thinks. A disadvantage t

Derek could not help but look at them and observe them. These were not like the scorpions he knew from earth. For one, they produced webbings from their tail end. Also, there seemed to be very organized and particularly busy.Some of them were bigger, but those big ones were few. And from the looks of it, they monitored the activities of the smaller ones. These creatures were hard at work building it seemed."Scorpion colony! We will have to navigate round them." Manila spoke."Navigate?" Aesir asked, "how far are we talking of?"She pointed to the hill far in the distance. "That far? But that will take at least an extra day off our schedule." Derek added."Yeah! It will. But it will be far better than to have those things have our scent. Cause ones they do, they will follow us for a very long time." Manila advised."Hmmm. Is there no way to distract them?" Derek asked."Well, there are a couple of ways that could work. However, we don't even have the necessary materials to make tha

Madeline nodded her head in understanding to Chief Sasha's words."So what does this have to do with aura?" Madeline asked."Well! Every thing." She picked up another stone from the ground, "according to your definition of aura, then aura is this object in your hands. And has stated earlier, it weighs you down over time." Chief Sasha turned and threw the stone into the water, then she turned once more and slowly released her aura, "However, if you understand that all it is, is an extension of your body, then behold the weight is gone. After all, your hands have always been attached to the rest of your body and you don't hear them complaining."Those words suddenly stroke difference to Madeline. She felt like she was at a state where she wanted to understand. In fact, the enlightenment was just Infront of her, however, it was a yard bit out of reach.She even sat on the ground as she tried to think hard on Chief Sasha's words. However, for the first time in a while, her brain was una

"huh!?" Madeline could not believe what she was hearing."Don't worry! I am not as weak or fragile as you think. I am sure you noticed that we are a small tribe. Yet, we have survived for so long with terrible neighbors such as the Kaka tribe. Although we rarely bring out our full force, we are definitely not weak." Chief Sasha smirked a bit.Madeline nodded and then she commanded the Cerberus to attack. The beast used one of its paws and a heavy blow landed on the chief. *Bam* Some where within the carven, Priestess Ada was attending to a pregnant woman when she heard the boom of the attack. She raised her head and sighed, "So the the training has started."She pretended not to hear it and continue with the pregnant woman in front of her.....Meanwhile, Madeline was panicking. There was a lot of dust and it was difficult for her to see what had happened. As far as she was concerned,she had crushed the chief."Chief Sasha!" She called out in a low tone. Afraid that her eyes might m

A few hours later, Derek ,Aesir and Milan said their good byes as they started their journey to the Gaka tribe.However, before they did Priestess Ada had come to see Derek one more time."Please take care of yourself properly Repono. And if there is absolutely anything you need, do not hesitate to contact me. I maybe far from you, but some of the things I can do will very much amaze you."Once she said this, she touched behind his ear and Derek clearly felt another radio rune added to the one he already had.Radio runes were special but not ominipresent. One had to be within a certain range for it to be used.Derek knew that If she was giving him one, then it meant that she was sure of reaching him as far away as even the Gaka tribe.A sudden realization hit Derek. One that he had not thought of before. Priestess Ada was a Familiar. Which meant that she could also weave runes.He remembered his experience at the cave when he first came and the one that had happen during the fight aga

"And what might the main dish be?" Milan asked with raised brows. Chief Sasha did not exactly know how to have this talk with her daughter. But she knew that she had to. "Erm... Milan how old are you now?" "I am nineteen now!" Milan replied, "but in a couple of months, I'll be twenty." "Oh! That's nice. That's around the same age I was when I had you. Oh, how I remember it like it was only yesterday. That was the happiest day of my life. You were so little and so adorable. Your butt was not this big and chest this full then. It was all so..." "Mother!!!" Milan stopped her. Her cheeks had become red from embarrassment. "Just go straight to the point. Please!" Chief Sasha laughed a bit, "okay! I understand you are a big girl now." She sighed and then laughed some more. Apparently, she was still rolling down memory lane. "So tell me. What do you think about that Master Writer?" Chief Sasha asked. "Huh!?" This question had taken Milan off guard. "What do you mean mother?" "I mean

Meanwhile, back at the mountain that belonged to the Waka tribe, Derek sat crossed legged in a cave assigned to him. This cave was by far a better one than the one he had and his friends had been sharing on first arrival. Also it was decorated appropriately and it even had a bed in the middle made of several animal fur. Derek had already given out instruction that he would loved to be left alone for a while, if not the entrance to this place would have been crowded by people. With rumours of the tribe having a writer as a guest, every body wanted to meet him. Also, tales of his marvelous feat from the battle earlier in the day had reached their ears.He was as good as a god to them at this point. At the entrance of the cave already lay all sorts of gifts for him. However, Derek was not all that interested in playing messiah at the moment. He just had too much on his mind. Too much problems that needed his attention. One of which was the pressing matter that both his women were mis
