Initiates graduating in a colourful ceremony.

The initiates waited for Joshua to come and narrate the story for them, but they had a serious talk with Ezekiel.

"What is wrong today with our grandfather he haves strangely I have never seen her that way lately," Robin said.

"I too is there any problem?" David asked

"Maybe they have something to sort or either they are planning tomorrow's graduation ceremony" David reiterated.

The initiates warm themselves around the fire as Joshua and Ezekiel talked for a long time, the food was brought and that interrupted their conversation.

"Let's go and served food it has been brought," Ezekiel said.

They served food and the initiates ate the food as the fire continued to light Ezekiel and Joshua went aside once again.

"I think I have the idea and it can help," Ezekiel said.

Joshua listened with high expectations of having a solution.

"The best thing for you and Sarah is to assume as if you know nothing and also I think they are professional in there they know what they are doing and the consequences if they are got in what they did," Ezekiel said.

Joshua thought for a while he saw Ezekiel and smiled

"That is very true let's leave things the way they are if any problem emerged we shall sort as we progress," Joshua said

They went back to where the initiates were in great hope and vigor the story emerge in his mind about the early traditional congest and cattle raiding, that was inter-community clashes. The initiates finished eating the evening meals they were happy that they were graduating on the second day the initiates knew that they were going to wear new colorful clothes and also it the best food they ate before.

"This might be the second last day for us being together" David whispered to Robin.

The moment of happiness was cut short by the massage from David.

"That is true bro, but remember what we agreed on that they should not know that we already know their ploy" Robin said.

"As we have agreed the moment our parents are charging their phones in the evening, that is the time we are going to communicate especially at three am in the morning when they are in a dip sleep," David said

Joshua interrupted by sitting down ready to narrate a Kalenjin story, he coughed and cleared his throat ready to tell the story, Robin and David became attentive and faced where Joshua is to listen to the story.

"It was in our early age when strong men didn't listen to the advice of the elders to go the Kisii land to raid cattle, our elders advised them not to go but they didn't listen, young strong men o, organized a meeting without inviting the wise men of the land, their ring leaders in the meeting planned raid against the Kisii community against the wish of the elders" Joshua narrated emotionally.

The initiates were eager to listen to the story but Joshua liked putting them in suspense as he coughed and clear his throat to make the story more interesting, continued.

"The weapons they use are bows and arrows there were no guns like today, the young men brought bows arrows spears, and shields ready to go for a raid against the advice of elders, it was the saddest moment for the elders because they knew what they could befall them" Joshua narrated in vigor.

"The young men went to raid cattle in Kisii land, they passed through ridges, valleys, maintain, hills, shrubs, and bushes to Kisii land, they successfully raided the cattle, but when they were returning there was a ridge where the warriors must pass through to our land and that ridge was a trap for them, their Kisii enemies followed them to the ridge stood up the hill and started engaging them by rolling huge rocks from both side of the ridge, and thousands of warriors were killed a few who were able to escape lived to narrate their horrible experience, from that day no one ever ignores the advice of the elders in our community.

Joshua ended the story but it was too dark and the initiates felt nervous because of the story which was horror especially when the Kisii war rolled the huge rocks to kill their enemies, David and Robin were quite running short of what to say Ezekiel reckoned that the initiates were fearful because of the mood of the story. The initiates slept a bit early in preparation for tomorrow's graduation ceremony.

"Tomorrow is your graduation ceremony I don't know if we will ever meet again after your graduation I know you will go to various schools after the end of the holiday," Joshua said.

"But don't worry I will personally arrange to visit you to know how you normally conduct yourself with your patents you know I am a disciplinarian I will deal accordingly with rude boys" Joshua assured.

The initiates slept with much expectations of a better future Robin and David know what was impending for them but they had to take heart.

The following day Maggy sandy woke up early to prepare food for the visitors who were to come for the graduation ceremony, Joshua and Ezekiel came to take the clothes for the initiates.

"We need to do it faster the time is up we need a colorful graduation ceremony," Maggy said

"Don't worry it's going to be well" Maggy said

The young people from the village came and erected the tenth for the visitors to assemble as the initiates graduated

Joshua and Ezekiel took the clothing Maggy and Sandy bought for the initiates to wear, the initiates were very happy to receive brand new clothes of the same make and colors, Robin was on the same suit make and color, they were handsome but it was difficult to differentiate between the two boys.

"It's now your time to be out of the initiation you look smart in your suit I like how you conducted yourself in the entire initiation process," Joshua said emotionally.

"I will miss you, also I will miss whom I am going to tell the adventurous stories, I have been telling you, my boys I will miss you very much," Joshua said.

Maggy and Sandy were on the final stage of preparing foodstuffs for the visitors youths from the village had already erected the tent and arranged the chairs for the quest and the initiates, they also arranged the place to serve food for the visitors.

"It's almost time for us to the part I hope everything is going to be well," Maggy said.

"It's already going very well as we had planned the only determining factor is time, today our boys are out and we must be happy for them," Maggy said.

"We must be careful not to make boys suspicious of what we are going to do the following day," Sandy said.

"Me too I am nervous about what the twin boys would behave after parting them without their knowledge" Maggy replied.

"But I hope your idea will work for making them busy, by convincing them to go to the day schools," Sandy said.

"The plan will work I assure you," Maggy said

"They will be complaining for some days by after some weeks they are going to get used to" Maggy added.

The women from the village assembled to welcome the initiates, there was a ribbon tied at the gate of the homestead Maggy and Sandy were to cut to welcome the initiates back home.

Joshua and the initiates were already prepared to come out of the homestead, Maggy, Sandy, and Sarah were in front of the women ready to welcome the initiates, Joshua was signaled to come out of the hospital Joshua led followed by Ezekiel then the initiates followed the women sang to welcome, they appeared at the gate Sandy cut the ribbon the congregants clapped. The initiates were out Robin and David were the first ones to come.

"Within a very short moment, they have grown as are those two Robin and David?" Maggy asked.

Yes, they are the ones, Sarah wept the tears of happiness, Maggy realized, but the women continued to sing as they led the initiates to the tent to start the graduation ceremony.
