NEXT MORNING ~~ A SMALL VILLAGE IN THE NORTH*
“Bring me all he first born female child,” King Tyrone ordered in his deep scary voice
His soldiers went forwards dragging all the girls from their houses, many parents could be seen already in tears as their children is being dragged out from their houses, and no one dares to say a single word as they dragged them out
The girls were lined up before him with tears
“Their heads,” King Tyrone roared, he sat gallantly on top of his horse without any expression on his face
Screams of agony filled the air as blood covered the ground, heads rolling down like it was nothing, father held their wives just so they won’t go over to the king and get killed
“What did we ever do wrong? We pay our tax even though it was a heavy tax, we gave you all our gold and worship you as our god, why kill our children?” A woman’s voice came from the crown
Almost immediately a loud thunderous slap landed on the woman’s cheeks and she fell to her knees, the soldier who slapped her dragged her up by the hair, he raise his hand to her face ready to slap her again but King Tyrone’s voice stopped him
“Move away,” he said in his deep scary voice
Everyone shifted back, far away from the woman as he strode to her, he has that evil look on his face giving him the devil vibe, his wine colored garment sweep the floor as he walks, everything about him smells danger
Getting close, the woman quickly looked down with a stream of tears rolling down her cheeks, she didn’t even care anymore, her only daughter’s head is lying right in front of her and this monster who called himself god don’t even seem to care
A moment of Silence passed
King Tyrone was still silently staring at her with those bloody eyes, she gently raised her head to look at his face and immediately she lifted her head, his fingers find their way into her eyes
“AHHHH,” came her sorrowful scream
He deepens his hand into her eyes, his other hand holding her head, pulling out his hand her eyes came out with it, as if that wasn’t enough, King Tyrone opened his palm and a sword was handed to him
He stabbed her directly in the heart before digging a hole with it, he shove his hand into her chest pulling out her heart in the process, right before everyone’s eyes, he cut a little slice from it and put it straight into his mouth, he closes his eyes chewing it like a meat
Everyone gasped in shock
He continue eating it till every of it was gone, looking down at the woman who was already cold, he started going over to his horse
Everyone was silent as if they were in a graveyard
“Only a few virgins were found, I need more heads,” Gianna appeared beside the king
Without sparing her a glance king Tyrone turned to his right-hand man
“How many were they?” he asked
“70, my lord,” he replied, his head down
“Only 50 were virgins, this boy we are tracking holds so much power, for us to get him we need 100 heads,” Gianna added and the king scoffed
”That’s why Viola will remain the best of you all, if only she didn’t misbehave,” King Tyrone mumbled, he climbed his horse
“My lord this child is too powerful, he can kill gods, and he….”
“Nothing is too hard for Viola to do, no matter how hard it is,” King Tyrone shut her up, Gianna glared gritting her teeth but she didn’t let show
“Go to the village close to the border and get me 50 virgin’s heads,” King Tyrone said to his right-hand men, riding away and his men followed instantly
“He still compares me to her even after she betray him, unbelievable,” Gianna muttered, her fist clenched tightly

SOUTH ?
Kalinda and Camilla walked side by side while the little boy who haven’t stopped talking walked beside hunter, he keep making him do things he didn’t want to do
“Did any of you bring extra water? It’s so hot out here,” Jefferson said, he shake the water bottle in his hand and it was empty
“Camilla told us not to bring extra water, that we will be traveling alongside a river,” Kalinda replied
“Thought you said you no all the rivers?” Viola asked staring at her
Camilla stared at the book in her hand
“Yes, am sure there use to be water here, right here,” she mumbled looking around
“Well then where is it?” Xavier asked looking around
Camilla walked forward looking around, she suddenly ran to the left and there comes the water she was looking for
“Water….. it’s water!!!” she shouted pointing at it
Everyone ran towards it, Hunter jumped into it and the little boy just stood outside watching them, Camilla was about to go in when she saw an octopus behind Hunter
“AHHH,” she shouted pointing at it
“Kalinda get out right now,” Jefferson shouted
She frowns her brows facing him
“What?” she asked, with a confused face
“Get out!!!” they all yelled at once
She turned around but Hunter was gone, she looked at the others
“Where did he go,” she asked
“My very educated guess is very dangerous,” the little boy spoke up
“What does that mean?” she asked confused
Hunter, she went into the river with is now gone, gone where? How could he just vanish?
“Kalinda it means get out,” Xavier shouted but she shook her head negatively
“No way,” she replied and dive into the river
“Kalinda!!!!” they all yelled at once
“They are both gonna die,” Camilla said sadly, tears at the corner of her eyes
“We tried to warn her,” Jefferson said sadly
A moment passed and there was no sign of them
“I knew it, I should have run over and dragged them out,” Camilla added
“They both never listen,” Viola replied
“They are out,” the little boy said, they all looked up to see Kalinda dragging Hunter out from the River
“Oh, thank the gods,” Camilla shouted happily
They quickly went over to help her, Jefferson looked at her and then back at Hunter, she was already pushing his chest just so he could breath
“You sawed off the tentacles with that little dagger?” Jefferson asked staring at her shocked
She ignored him, her hand holding Hunter’s face
“Hunter, come on, breathe,” she shouted, tapping his cheeks
Joining her hands together she started hitting on his chest
“Kalinda, what are you doing?” Xavier asked staring at her
She ignored him, she hit his chest again and everyone stared at her this time
“What are you doing?” Jefferson asked trying to stop her
“A drawing clerk so you can bring someone back to life,” she replied and cupped his face
She leaned closer and captured his lips into a deep kiss, Jefferson frowned and rolled his eyes, he could feel his blood boiling with rage
“Do the clerk also say that you can kiss people back to life?” he asked in a jealous tone, his head moving from one place to another
Kalinda gently pulled away from the kiss hitting her hand against Hunter’s chest again, Hunter gasped vomiting water
“You’ve got to be kidding me,” Jefferson added angrily and shifted back
Kalinda looked at him before returning her gaze to Hunter, she smiled lightly her both hands holding his head
“Are you alright?” she asked calmly, a smile on her face
She was so happy that she brought him back to life
“I feel like a horse hit me in the chest, and I dreamed that you kissed me…”
“Yes she did, guess what? it wasn’t a dream. she kissed you back to life stupid, how incredibly romantic,” Jefferson cut in angrily, he stood up and walked away pushing Xavier out of the way as he stormed off
