Little Miss Successful

Part 20

Narrators POV
Just outside the outskirts of the Zulu Kingdom,two women (one older and the other younger )are discussing ways to get rid of Amahle.They know they aren't physically strong enough to do which is why they decided to approach a seer that practices witchcraft.All those witches were banished by the king from the Zulu Kingdom but there are still some that beg to differ.The witch goes by the name Nyok'emnyama.You can just tell by the name,just how negative his aura should be.
They want to eliminate Amahle as they have heard that she is the one to marry the future King,Nkosinaye.The younger woman who goes by the name Esihle wants the prince ,well future king,all to herself.It's a good thing she does not know the powers possessed by INdoniyamanzi therefore she can't try and take her powers too.The two women enter his hut after taking off their shoes.

Nomvuyelo:Makhosi
Esihle:Mnyama
Nyok'emnyama nods his head and offers them a seat.
Nomvuyelo:We came here to...
Him:(interrupting)I know,I knew this day would come eventually.
They both look at him confused
Esihle:Uchaza ukuthini makhosi?
Him:Konke kuyingxenye yesiprophetho.Bekulokhu kulotshiwe ezincwadini ukuthi nina besifazane nizoza kimi, nifuna usizo lokususa unkulunkulukazi wamanzi.Ngizilungiselele kahle futhi nginakho onikufunayo.This princess is heavily protected by her ancestors,God and other unknown forces which is why you need to stride carefully while carrying out this mission and then strike when she least expects it.

The two women smile looking at each other.Nyok'emnyama walks out,going to fetch izintlambo that he has been preparing for exactly this moment ,for the past few months.
Nomvuyelo:I knew our ancestors would never forsake us or let alone let us settle for less.You my daughter,will be the queen of this kingdom,ruling along side with King Nkosinaye.I can't wait to see the current queens face when she sees our kids fall in love,get married and have kids! Sobe siqubha kwimali phela.
They both giggle and high five in satisfaction for what they think their future holds.Nyok'emnyama walks in
Women:(simultaneously)Makhosi.

He nods his head,takes his seat and starts chanting inaudible things.He opens his palm and a black snake comes out getting into a bottle as big as his hand.Yellow sticky-looking oil starts forming in the very bottom of the bottle where the snake is.The snake starts moving around intensely as if burning and then eventually settles down after a few moments.A toxic smell ,almost like gasoline,fills the atmosphere of the hut.
Nyok'emnyama:Bring your pinky finger closer ,young lady.
Esihle looks at him kind of creeped out
Nyok'emnyama:Enza ntombi,iskhathi asinaso.
He says as he grabs her right hand,makes a cut on her pinky finger and blood oozes out flowing into the bottle.He quickly closes the bottle and starts shaking it.The more he shakes it,the more the snake disappears and the darker the mixture becomes.He takes a bag with dry leaves and passes them to Esihle
Nyok'emnyama:Put these under your tongue every night to block any kind of force from attacking you.You never know with these royal ancestors.
He then takes the bottle,wraps it around a newspaper and gives it to her.
Nyok'emnyama:Make sure you put a bit of this in her food or drink every two days or one,depending on how effective it is.You'll know if it's working if she starts feeling dizzy,immense headaches and hallucinations.The Zulu royals will think uluhlanya and kick her out.
Nomvuyelo:Just like that?
Nyok'emnyama:Just like that.
They all smile.
Esihle:I need plan B,should this not work out.
Nyok'emnyama:I'm always one step ahead.
He takes a black plastic bag that has a really bad odor.Inside the plastic bag is a doll version of Amahle.Dark skinned,big Afro,nice thick body and every other thing that screams "I am Amahle !".The plastic also has needles,wool and mud in a tiny container.

Nyok'emnyama:This is what I call the real eliminator .It blocks success,fertility and a healthy mental wellbeing.Ikwenza ubeluhlanya and everything in your life just crumbles down in a blink of an eye.It makes all your loved ones continue with life without you, bangabinalo udaba ngawe.Every single needle you stick in the doll represents the downfall of the opposing.You should rub the mud on the doll's face when she starts going crazy and you'll see how ugly she will become.Find the Ndoni's toothbrush and a pair of her panties.Wrap them around the doll after sticking the needles in.Chant her name three times before burying the whole thing in her home where she lives with her brothers in Johannesburg.
