The Black Shadow got up in his feet…. He was completely naked.. only some herbal medicine were wrap around his wounds..

His eyes widen as he picks up a sword.. and signals Amina to keep it quiet and hide….

The guards all had heavy weapons, dressed in white robes riding black horses…. Were looking around the tents…

Suddenly the guards found the dead body… one screamed… Murder.. Murder.. Master Nadim has been murdered….

Suddenly all the guards began to be cautious and they spread around to have a closer look for the murderer…..

One guard came close to the tent of Black Shadow…. Immediately he cut in his right hands off… The guard began to cry loudly.. The Black Shadow pushed the sword inside his belly and threw the spear to another guard's head..

The other guards spread around the tents.. Then the Black shadow did not hesitate any moments to strike another guard with a deadly blow to his chest to rip it open…

Then two superior guards came.. they both has Ibex tattoo on his chest.. Ibex are a big mountain goats with long horns…

The superior guards (Ibex) said stop …. In the name of the forbidden … you dare to stop .. otherwise you will be vanished in Hell…

The Black Shadow smile loudly…. He said loudly Hakim.. This is for you.. the entire place was trembling with his voice.. the sound was so loud both Ibex feared …. who is this man?

The Black Shadow threw heavy blows to the one of the Ibex and kicked the other in the face.. The one Ibex hit him back with massive force and the other one fly back at him at a rapid speed…

Black shadow took one blow but manage to hit back and punched him to crash his skull…

Now the second Ibex draw the sword but he kicked him hard so he was knocked out…

He begged for his life..

He was shorter and thinner than the other guards… He placed threw his sword away and asked Black shadow to spare his life….

In a rush Amina took the knife of Fatema which was on the table and pushed into the eyes of the guard….

The guard screamed and all his blood was pouring out of his body and then he became green and lie down in the ground. 

Amina shouted You bastard.. I will never spare you… You Iblis…. You go to hell..

Then she began to cry holding her face down in the earth..
