CHAPTER 11
FINAL BATTLE 2
It was raining and figures were seen standing opposite each other , the right side were the warriors whose anger can be read on their face , they all pull out their sword waiting for the command of their leader, the chief warrior to attack the masses who stood in different directions . Bimpe and Bolu stood in front of the masses , as for that period they were leader .
Bolu held a gun , with a dagger hanged at her back , she looked at Bimpe and smiled . This will be a great experience for her as she had never been in a battle field before . Bimpe hanged the Piligom on her neck , with the source of it power she made her people immortal and some if lucky , invisible .
The warriors looking frustrated and tired of standing in front of a small number of people , with no weapon but cooking pans and sticks .
One of the warriors managed to walk up to the wizard and talk .
" Your majesty , are this the few people we are fighting , they are not even up to hundred and we are a thousand in number and infact , they are holding no weapons , or will they be fighting us with cooking pans and sticks . " He replied .
" Do you want me to turn you to a waste ? " The wizard asked .
" Sorry , no - no - no sir " He stammered .
" Then shut up and obey the order , " The wizard frowned " it's a pity non of you know how strong I am , I am bringing in more people from the weak world to join , this time around we will be ten thousand in number . "
Suddenly a dark circle formed in the sky , Bimpe could see the weak world in it , then owls were flying out of it , shape shifting into different creatures and some into humans . Among all , Gweneven stood up with a burning axe on her hand , she smiled at Bolu and Bimpe who looked terrified .
" What is she doing here ? , I thought her dead . " Bolu was shocked .
" I'm also confused , wait you killed her . Actually she hates me from the beginning and she's ready to join forces with the wizard to destroy both me and fairyland .
" Oh I see , anyway order the people to shoot out their arrows " Bolu replied .
Bimpe showed a signal and arrows were coming from nowhere attacking the warriors .
" I thought their weapons were frypans and sticks , how are they shooting arrows . " The chief warriors asked .
" She is soo smart , tell the others to attack . It's time for a bloody fight . " The wizard put on his helmet .
Out of nowhere , Gweneven appeared in front of Bimpe trying to strike her enemy on the shoulder with her axe , but Bolu saved her by pulling the trigger on Gweneven . Seeing her friend and her enemy in a fight , she disappeared into the thin air , flowing like the wind . The wizard caught and tried to attack her with a sword , but instead she pushed him to the sky , fighting hand to hand , due to how strong they were , they moved into different world .
" I know this will happen someday , and I'm prepared for it ! " The wizard yelled as he pinned Bimpe to the ground .
" I will kill you ! " Bimpe yelled as she thrust a knife in his eyes.
The wizard groan in pain , he immediately set Bimpe ablaze with fire .
"There's something you need to know , you have no father ! , Your mother and I were both lovers when we were young but she broke my heart by falling in love with an angel , they got married and had you , even when she was just a week pregnant for me . I was devastated , and kept asking myself why she will do such a thing . Your grandfather sent me away , because I was still trying to have an affair with your mother. Till now my child , no one in fairyland knows exactly who your father is . " He continued " let me have the Piligom ! "
" Why did you need it ! " Bimpe asked .
" So that I can use i destroy it " He replied .
" You are soo dumb , " Bimpe laughed " how will you destroy the piligom , when you need it . "
" I won't give you , it's mine now . " She replied , as she raised her hand to show him the Piligom , it wasn't on her palm again . She was shocked when she saw the Piligom attached to a rope hung around the wizards neck .
" How , How is that possible ? " Bimpe was shocked .
" Something a fool like you won't know " He replied as he cast a spell on her , turning her into nothing but an atom of light .
" Oh no , so this is how I will end . " Bimpe said to herself as she felt her body getting smaller and smaller until she was nothing but an atom of light .
Gweneven hit Bolu with a plank , making her lose consciousness . Gweneven smiled as she walked away from her enemy . From no where a man fired his arrow at Gweneven , as she too fell on the same direction where Bolu was . Bolu gave a evil smile as she point her gun towards her enemy's head , this is over already , enough of all this mess of wizards and witches of a thing , she pulled the trigger and Gweneven's head blasted into tiny particles of sand .
" Wow , she's truly a witch ! " Bolu yelled at the corpse in front of her .
Bimpe felt herself reducing in size than an atom itself , some spiritual knowledge that haven't yet occured to her yet , kept flashing into her memory . She realized that she's more stronger than the Piligom itself .
With all the powers she has , she broke herself free from the spell of the wizard , penetrating into the wizards soul without him knowing , she controlled almost all his mind . Soon the wizard couldn't get himself any longer .
" Piligom , I want you to free me from the fairy troubling my mind , free me ! " He yelled as tiny drops of blood poured out from the open part of his face .
" Your days are numbered . " Bimpe replied .
" Piligom ! I ..w.." He tried to open his mouth to say some few words but he felt pains round his body .
Bolu managed to stand on her feet after destroying her opponent . she climbed the stairs of the tower , so as to get in , on her way she met the door closed , opening it she saw the priest and priestess of fairyland looking weak and skinny .
" Thank the gods you found us immediately , I can tell you where the wizard source of life is . " The oldest priest managed to speak , as they were all weak from starvation .
" Where is it ! " Bolu asked .
" On the highest floor , but it's too risky . It's not a safe place to go , there are thousands of demonic creatures who are ready to feed on people's soul and you need to stay away from them " He replied .
" I have my gun with me , with a dagger designed by my father . What else would I need , they can't even come close to me . " She replied .
" Take this stone , they won't come to you if they see it . " The priest stretched out his old hand to Bolu , as she took the white stone from his palm .
" All right . " she climbed the stairs without looking back .
" Wait , you are not from here . Are you ? " He asked .
" You are right . Know " she replied , without looking back .
Bimpe tortured the wizard to an extent that he had no other choice than to cut the part of where pain is felt in his body .
" I have cut my leg silly fairy , what else do you want me to do . You can't kill my soul ! " He laughed .
" Oh I see " she replied .
" Get out of me fairy ! , Get out of my mind ! " He cried as he cut his right ear with his sword .
" For the pains you've caused to my people , especially my parents . " She replied .
" Didn't I tell you that your mother is an adulter . You don't have a father " He laughed , feeling another pain again on his right hand .
" This will be your greatest purnishment . " she replied .
Feeling too much pain , he begged for forgiveness but his sins were too much to be forgiven by the fairy .
" I told you once again , you can't kill my soul . " He managed to laugh .
Bolu hide behind a big mirror, as she heard the sound of a creature . She tried not to breathe as she was trained by her father not to in the sight of danger , anytime she encounters a beast that was the first trick she had to do . Getting a full sight of the creature , it was soo small but it's shadows shows how mighty it was , and it was that shadow that Bolu had been seeing , making her scared .
It was a lizard with the tail of a lion and the legs of a bird , a halo formed on top of his head and it looked at Bolu , Bolu on the other end looked like a statue . It came close to Bolu again , trying to observe if it was a prey on not .
Bolu felt her predator looking into her eyes , in other to be sure if truly it was a statue or not . Feeling satisfied , it decided to go on its way .
Seeing it has gone , Bolu stopped holding her breathe and continued climbing the stairs .
She had almost gotten to the first floor when she met her mother crying , she was holding a baby .
" Mum ! " She was shocked .
" My child , I know you will still remember me . You've grown so big . " The being replied .
" How did you get in here " she asked .
" Your father sent me away , he said I was cheating on him . After years of roaming in the forest I was found by a fairy who bought me here , instead of him taking care of me like other good Samaritans , he traded me to the wizard for two acres of land . Now I have a baby for .... " She cried , as she hugged Bolu .
Bolu wanted to throw her arms round her , but she remembered what the priest had said , there are demons ready to feed on souls . Her mother had committed suicide a
, so how come her mother was alive . She felt a perfect plan to trick the demon .
" Remember you gave me a name before you left me , what was my name ? " Bolu asked .
" I named you Bimpe . I have forgotten , can you remind me . " The demon tried to trick Bolu .
" Now I see , " Bolu bought out the stone the priest had given her and placed it on the demons chest , suddenly the body began to burn .
" Take this stone off me , it's burning me . " It shouted , " silly girl you should have let me feed on your soul ! "
The demon burned into ashes . Feeling satisfied Bolu climbed the stairs , she had almost walked passed the room that contained the source of power when her eyes caught a calabash , standing o a stool . She walked into the room to have a better view , in it was a blood and she poured it away .
"Abomination ! " The wizard cried as he felt his soul dying .
" I know you won't last long " Bimpe smiled as she came out of the wizards body .
" This has nothing to do with your powers , someone has tampared with my calabash . I can feel it inside , I'm dying . " He managed to sit down on a dead corpse , looking at the sky he frowned .
" Wow , you finally got to rest in hell . I hope they will remember you . " Bimpe replied , removing the piligom from his neck .
" Indeed my days are numbered , you have won my child . " He managed to speak , as the little life present in him , left him slowly .
Bimpe was surprised of how the wizard sat , he didn't even fall , he just sat still frowning .
Suddenly the tower began to collapse , Bimpe knew Bolu was still present in there so she disappeared into the tower and found Bolu running down the stairs towards her .
" Give me your hand " Bimpe cried .
" Why should I trust you , you are a demon ! " Bolu replied .
" I'm the guardian , you need to trust me Bolu . It's me Bimpe ! , and there are no more wizards and demons of a thing . " She smiled .
Hearing Bimpe saying her name without misspelling it , she knew it was her friend so she gave her hand and they both disappeared before the tower collapse on them .
