Never have Blondie walked on my right, likewise Reddy who always stays glued to the right as if he's somehow drawn to his mark on my body.
I think they somehow knows where they fall.
"You're to stubborn to listen to my pleas, "the chief looks at us in displeasure. He really hates that we didn't honour his words and stay back like he requested from us.
He doesn't know it's not a matter of stubbornness. It's rather a matter of survival.
If we continue staying here till we're caught, it will bring nothing but sadness and death to this good town.
The search being conducted mostly by Vampires means there will be zero to no mercies for the humans in whose town we're caught.
" We would have loved to stay in this peaceful place, but we can't ignore the call of the mountains. We need to still keep up the duties of our priestess.
As disciples, we ought not to ignore our works all because she's dead." Ije bowed thrice to him. A gesture of both farewell and thanks .
" We're grateful for all you've done for us. We will be back someday."
The villagers who stood still since we came close started murmuring at her words. I guess they don't like the mention of someday instead of soon.
Humans are too emotional.
Reddy says with a frown.
If you hate humans so much, why are you still here?"
I rolled my eyes at him.
Reddy always acts like the prince he is. The sovereign prince of Makoha whose destiny was predetermined before his birth.
Because you're here Blacky. You're the reason for my tolerance on them.
He says after a short moment of silence.
i don't doubt he would have left since we came to stand here because of the two many emotions roving on the air.
Reddy grew up in a cold family, in an equally cold palace filled with cold blooded animals.
That's why his reactions didn't bother me at all. Reddy shows respect but never affection.
"May the gods safely lead you on your journey. May you never encounter anything on the way. May your parts be straight as you locate your way back to where you came from."
" Ise," we said in reply to the words the chief said.
We need to leave.
Reddy said in urgency.
The scent of vampires are closer than before. It won't take them long to discover our tracks.
My mates words were enough for me to tug Ije's gown in urgency, and she knowing exactly the reason why I will think to tug her gown smiled at the villagers.
"We will be on our way then," she walked out, and the girls followed her out, but I was stopped by the little children.
"Brother Buchim are you going to return?" Sommy with the always teary eyes asked.
" As long as the sky remains orange, and the moon remains on the sky, we will meet again," I said in farewell.
