Chapter 8 Catbads spies

Chapter 8 .

Catbads spies..

Abbie couldn't take her eyes of the 3 crows.

They squirmed and shrieked in pain on the floor.

Then the whole room jumped in horror.

Maggots sprawled out of the crows mouths hundreds of them they completely covered the crows devouring them.

Three piles of maggots kept growing.

Abbie couldn't look away.

"Do you know why men go to war?"

Cu Culainn whispered to her standing by Abbie's side.

"What?" She said her eyes transfix on the growing mass of maggots.

"Do you know why men go to war?" Cu Culainn repeated strongly.

"I don't know." She couldn't believe he

is asking stupid questions.

"God, King, country, I dont know, to protact us from bad guys."

"Those are the excuse"s for war. Men use them to fool our mothers, girlfriends, wives and family. Some even use those excuses to fool themselfs. But that is not why men go to war."

"Why then?" Abbie asked.

The mounds of maggots stopped growing. They were desolving revealing-.

- something underneath.

"Simple. The reason is we like it-" He said.

The something underneath was three human forms but they were cocooned in spider webs.

"-Not just like war but we love it. Lust for it."

The bodies started moving then ripping the cobwebs off.

" -Once war lust takes hold of a man he will abandon and destroy everything that he believes stands in his way until his lust is satisfied."

The figures peeled the last of the cobwebs off.

Three naked women lay on the floor.

One blond, one red and one dark haired. They were the most beautiful women Abbie ever saw.

Abbie was pushed hard.

She was pushed out off their way.

The warriors in the room were pushing closer to the goddesses .

"STAY BACK!" Shouted Catbad.

"You just want them for yourself " spat one of the warriors drawing his sword. Others were doing the same.

"Cover those women with the rugs NOW!" Catbad shouted and the three Maids threw the rugs over them.

"Make sure they are completely covered no flesh can be shown!"

The maids obeyed each staying with one war goddess.

The warriors stopped.

Their aggression dying down but still there.

"My sisters, our my sisters all right!"

Pleaded the blond one. Abbie guessed the older of the three.

"We are fine we are free!"

The other two answered at the one time.

"Only until the candle is lit." Catbad told them.

"Then you still not have found the one who cursed us?" Spoke the dark haired one.

"The only one who can break our curse."
