RUDEV MARY

Amagedon

Dan and his knights were half a mile near Sodom. They were lurking in the bushes, hatching a plan.

"Okay, so we take out the front knights and then..." Dan said, looking back. The sound of leaves rustling distracted him.

"What then?" a knight asked. Dan continued, "If we can somehow" he heard it again, he turned slowly to his men and whispered "Be quiet"

He slowly drew out his swords and walked towards the sound. He became very suspicious. His knight stood up as well to have his back. They all form a big circle looking into the forest. There was silence for a short while until...

Smack!! a lady knight swinging from a rope hit him down. Some men creeped out of the bushes and attacked them. They charged and defended themselves.

They engaged in a severe fight, but the lady knight tackled Dan and trapped him. She put her sword against his neck and said"Stop or someone gets hurt"

The knights were cuffed and seized"Well done Dan" she clapped.

Dan immediately wanted to know how she knew his name"How do you know me?" he asked.

She removed her helmet and smiled,

"Talia," He said with a stern voice.

"Yep, I knew you would be hard to catch" she replied with a smug.

"So you're behind all this ?" he asked struggling but he was cuffed as well.

"Oh Dan, I'm sorry about your little kingdom problem but I'm not behind all of it. The head will want to have a little chat with you" She said.

"Head of what?" he asked curiously

"The one behind your kingdom's downfall" she smiled

"I thought it was sodom?" he asked."Nope!" she placed him on a horse and jumped on it.

"Take me then" he replied.

Eve walked in on rudev interrupting her sulking moment."Hello" she muttered standing at the door. Rudev turned her head and looked away.

Eve walked in and sat in the bed"Hey" she whispered but rudev didn't respond

Eve stood and closed the doors gently, she then said out loud"No one is looking!"Rudev stood up, she didn't look like she wasn't in the mood for anyone. She walked up to her and smiled. She hugged her tightly and said"I'm sorry"

Eve smiled back and sat her down"The next time you want to slap me .please make it once and softly. You're the one that told me to pretend that I like your brother and then break his heart so that he'll know how it feels like to be heartbroken"

"I know, he has hurt so many women and I just wanted him to taste a bit of his own medicine"rudev replied.

Eve then frowned and said softly"Your brother is nice, I think he's changing..."rudev burst into laughter. Eve wondered what was so funny"Do you know how you sound..."rudev laughed harder.

"What!"eve stopped her from laughing more. Rudev sighed and replied"Joza can never change, even if he will, he has to learn it the hard way"rudev stood up.

Eve stood up and replied"He saved my life and some other kids too"

"So? He was just being a show-off!"rudev replied.

"I don't think so?"eve concluded.

Meanwhile, Joza was in his room on his bed smiling at the ceiling."What if eve is right? I could be good from now on" he rolled on his bed again."I could change and maybe people would like me more,she likes me even when I was rude and she has given me ray of hope"

He stood up happily and put on fresh clothes looking at the mirror. He recalled when he helped that man from being killed, he smiled and danced in his room. He took out perfume and sprayed one of the windows and took a deep breath, He waved to a nearby street hawker and said"Good morning Mrs Sarah" 

The lady looked at him in awe and smiled. Joza walked out of his room and walked graciously, today was a new beginning for him and he wasn't going to mess it up.

Eve and rudev came out at the same time from the room and saw him. Rudev snickered"What's he so happy about?"

Eve shrugged and smiled. Joza saw them and ignored but he noticed they looked happy, he reversed and asked "Looks like you two have patched things up?"

Eve and rudev shared a nervous glance and immediately began to mince words, they said a lot of stuff that didn't make sense trying to give a good cover story. Joza shook his head at them and said"Eve, would you like me to escort you to the market?"

Eve looked at rudev and smiled, she replied with a nod and took his hand.

They both left. Rudev watched them, folded her hands and soliloquized"I wonder?"

She took her bow and arrow and left too. She arrived at the border, she saw the immigration knights securing it and letting people in and out. She walked closer and perched on a tree.

"My Princess"A knight greeted her." Mustafa, just the man was looking for..." she walked close to him and asked"I want information from you"

"Anything" he replied

"Good...A man came in disguised as a knight, he is a foreigner from another kingdom and he tried to kill me...I need his personal information, and I'm sure he signed while he was coming in"

Mustafa smiled and said "My princess, personal information about people? I'm afraid I can't disclose that"Rudev immediately pulled out her arrow of will and bow and aimed at his forehead. The man panicked, raised his hands in the air and blurted "He's  name is Zebedee from Amagedon"

.She lowered her arrow and patted him. She walked away being fulfilled.

Don had arrived at Amagedon, he was well served and given new clothes to wear. Even though he was famished, he couldn't help but wonder why they gave him special treatment.
He ate the food hurriedly. Talia walked up to him and calmed him down"Easy there now"

He looked at her with suspiciousness"Why are you treating me like this?"He asked

"Because the boss wants me to" she replied.

"Who's your boss? and where's your head?" he asked with mouthfull.
She smiled and replied"The Boss, I'm afraid I can't tell but the head will attend to you soon"

She walked away leaving Dan even more curious.

After a while, she came and smiled"The head is here now..." Dan stood up to see who?
Talia made way for the head to pass, who Dan saw left him gobsmacked and speechless. He gawked and muttered"Ephraim?"

Ephraim didn't look like he was a prisoner of any sort, he was well dressed and looked even nicer. He smiled and exclaimed"Dan!"

Dan couldn't utter a word as he was frozen." Can't you see how I took care of your uncle?" she asked.

Dan finally asked, "uncle is it you behind all of this?"

Ephraim chuckled and sat down, he replied"Oh no, it's not me...but if you find out who the person is, you'll be more shocked.
