In the morning, the sun was halfway rise from the mountains peaks. The only sound heard on the riverside was that of the water flowing. At a tree beside the river, Mayra sat under a tree supporting her back on the tree stem. Mayra remembering her father last chat, “Do what you do best,” she was busy drawing in her little book.Akyaa walked towards the river carrying a pot while singing. This caught Mayra attention where she silently faced her without noticing her noticing her back. After Akyaa’s pot was full and she was ready to take it up and walk away, Mayra shouted, “Hello Akyaa.”Akyaa placed the pot full of water beside her legs faced Mayra whom was walked towards her while saying,“It’s like our fate is tied together.”“No, it’s only because am used to come to the river at this time.”“And Osei is he a friend like Ofori to you or it’s something different.”“Last time I checked we were not friends.”“Sorry I did not mean to offend you.”“Thank you.”Then Akyaa bend took the pot a
Ofori stood in the dark side of the cave silently watching Mayra and Owusu as they walked away until they both vanished from his sight.Deep into the cave, a rat moved all around sniffing the ground. As the rat moved, it reached where Osei was lying on the ground unconsciously. There was an open wound on his forehead where the rat started licking the wound.Osei due to the irritation on his head he slowly open his eyes walking out of his unconscious state. After fully opening his eyes he realize something was eating his fore head where moved his hand to the wound that scared the rat away.

Osei was slowly walking out of the cave holding a flaming torch. Immediately he walked out of the cave the darkness that had to fall over the land stuck him confusing him more. Looking confused of how to go back home, he paused looking at the wide full moon that was shining in the sky.Suddenly behind him, he heard some strange movement coming from the cave. Looking astonished, he turned to the deep side of the cave and slowly started walking backward as the strange movements were moving closer to the exit of the house. After some few steps off the cave, thousands of bats flew of the cave as he faced them in shock.Next day in the morning, people were busy moving up and down on the community ground. Between the midst’s, Osei walked slowly looking weak. As he walked between the people, he attracted the attention of everybody where the people were gazing at him.

It was late at night and the full moon was shining in the sky. Deep in the woods, some men on long similar clocks had gathering around. The men were also masks of different animal’s skulls. Round the gathering, a flaming torch lighted that was giving the crowed light.Suddenly two men on clock walked in the middle while pulling a man that was tied heavily. After the two men forced the tied man to kneel at the center of the gathering, they moved back joining the circle standing beside each other.In the circle there were two men chatting on a low voice,“Have you ever had a second thought about this?”“Why?”“Yesterday I think I saw a demon.”“That’s good because it was there to protect you.”“No, I don’t think it was there to protect me.”“If you see it just give in to its power and it will do what you ask it to do.”“It looks you do not believe me.”Suddenly a man who had worn a clock with a different color from others joined the circle as he noticed the two men that were talking.

In the cave ceiling, a blowhole that stretched the sunlight ray reached to the ground. The sunlight ray landed on some unfinished pieces of an apple. Besides the unfinished pieces of the apple Mayra was there lying flat on the ground facing upwards watching the sunlight beam. She had Tran’s night thinking of a way to break the chain in her leg.Still as she was watching the blowhole in the ceiling she said, “You know that I cannot survive on apples alone I need another type of food and water having stayed here for two days.” But what Mayra could get back is her echoes. She was aware of her kidnapper was somewhere in the cave hiding in the dark. But she was comfortable I the presence of the kidnapper because she was saved from a death sentence.Mayra changed his position to seat on the ground and stated doing what she does best, she wrote on the ground while saying, “So how many days have you planned to lock me in this dark place.” As she was drawing on the ground in good luck, she fou
The next moment, Fante was standing before a pole heavily chained. The afternoon sun was clearly in the sky. Fante faced the elders whom they were concentrating on the dead clan of elders that were aligned on the ground before them. Chief Ashanti was silently meditating the situation while the other elders were chattering. Owusu who was previously absent walked to the gathering slowly and innocent. This made everybody to stop the chattering and faced him. He walked and sat on the empty seat that was beside Chief Ashanti and broke his silence by asking,“Now what is the progress?”“No progress at all because we were all waiting for you.”After the words, Chief Ashanti turned to Fante who was just before them and asked rudely, “Now start talking. Were you the one behind all the drawings?” he knew the end of this he was to die so fastening things he talk out the truth,“Yes, we were except the one we found it drawn by the Portuguese girl.”“And how many were you in total performing th

On the farthest side of the podium, Chief Ashanti was there standing beside a pull the handle.Everybody at that time was silent waiting for Chief Ashanti to pull the handle to open the ground to where Fante was standing to suspend him on air.
