Chapter 25

Abalone showed for his battle with Dawoo only he had no swords or weapons but adorned the most wicked smile Dawoo had ever encountered. He was infected by evil a high evil. There will be no battle here Uncle. Why is that nephew sensing the wicked in him. Have you asked yourself where is your betrothed?

The women inhaled she is safe....for now he evilly stated! Abalone tossed up his hands reassuringly. If you want to see Selah alive you will do as I order Dawoo. What is that nephew? You will escort me to your childhood home where you will remove the horns of wisdom from her skull and place them back where they belong! They belong on a direct descendant of your line true royal blood, kings blood, born royal blood not made royal blood. Made a Queen because of a discrepancy you intend to correct this day Uncle!

If I wanted to remove the horns I cannot. The horns have a mind of their own and when a successor is chosen the spirit must be clean of corruption thus the three days bedside of the previous wearer with no food, prayer, and blessing. It is a process nephew!  You gifted the horns to a descendant of Selah you did that! Not the horns! You did it once you shall again!

He did not do that Abalone! The story teller rose the books say and Dawoo exited his body on his death bed astral traveling to the risen realm where he counseled with the God's who granted permission for the horns of wisdom to be gifted to a female child of his choosing due to the treacherous wicked surrounding his demise. Abalone paced shaking his head then this night you shall tarry amongst the Gods and beg them to grant you this favor once more Dawoo. If I do not nephew?

The witch stepped out the shadows her evil gripping everyone in her presence. Husband she diabolically smiled at Daewoo. If you cannot get them to grant the horns be gifted to Prince Abalone I shall remove them myself. She flashed her razor sharp nails bellowing out a belly deep witches cackle causing night ravens to fill the sky blackening the night moon in her honor.

Come husband there is much to discuss we shall begin where it all ended for us in our home Castle Banshee our carriage awaits. A horse drawn carriage appeared out of thin air the horses were half rotten  flesh missing from their bones. Their rib cages and leg bones showing and thier eyes black with mo iris'. When they snorted they exhaled fire which escaped thier bright red lungs. The priestesses gripped one another in fear. Dead horses of soldiers borrowed from below the risen realm they whispered.

Dawoo sat fearlessly in the seat of the black smoke transparent carriage. The witch slammed the door the cranking sound causing the women to jump in fear as the carriage made a u-turn trotting off on frantic night air and clouds towards castle banshee leaving the death smell of burning sulfur behind them.

Kasha and Derrick stayed in the shadow of the Forrest seeing all. The couple retreated to discuss an alternate plan. We have to go to the castle Derrick Kasha whispered knowing Banshee had excellent hearing as hers was swiftly fading. Where is that bae? Kasha pointed up to the moonlit tower accented by swaying tips of tall juniper trees blowing in the night wind.

It's an uphill trek derrick we can get there in thirty minutes if we hurry kasha kissed him. What was that for? No matter what happens I love yup Derrick. He kissed her smiling I love you too baby now lets go bae we gonna be late. The couple jogged to castle banshee to cut down on time.

Once they arrived Kasha cut a row boat loose the servants used to go straight to the kitchen. Come Derrick. He froze what's wrong? Derrick pointed to a crocodile. Oh thats Xena she's harmless look. Xena here girl. Kasha pet Xena who floated away and under water. What the hell was that? We found an alligator as banshee children crossing to your world we bought it here.

The older banshee were furious then Abalone the guy you saw took all the blame he said he would take care of her so he raised her and released her in the moat she remembers all us as kids i was one of them now come on silly she is sleeping. Xena the gator is sleep he scoffed while Kasha giggled.

Where is her man? The elders heard how they procreate and can walk on land grabbing kids that was a hard no. Derrick laughed can't say I blame them. The couple entered the castle through the kitchen where they were privy to an argument between Abalone & Dawoo.

As they argued Kasha and Derrick went to find Selah who was fast asleep.  Derrick raised a knife high above her the moonlight flashing off the blade as he speedily charged it toward her heart.

Kasha looked on salivatingly elated.
