The Offering 🌜☠️

"Osen lamaaaa" "chiii chiii , Osen lamaaaa" an old witch could  be seen chanting incantations to the water spirits , who reside in the large sea before her ... In her hands , lay a 2 months old baby girl , who's cries echoed through the darkness as if denying the fate that was being labeled on her ..." Come mother goddess , come and accept my offering , come , come , comeeee .." she beckoned in a loud voice despite the child's incessant pleading ...."come and accept your offering, come and feed on this innocent soul , come oh mother , come " she muttered amongst hums and whispers

"How dare you " a voice yelled ,  snapping the woman out of her revelry , thereby partially nullifying her spells ..."Who are you?" She asked , as the old lady could not see anyone there apart from the baby in her arms and herself . .."what do you want and why are you here ?" She probed further into the darkness , her eyes glancing around in fear and curiosity ..."Show your, ahhhhh" her speech was cut short,  as she led out a whirl and  blood curdling scream , dropping the little baby in her arms , as she stared at the creature who now had her heart in hand  , "this is impossible " she whispered as she fell to death , her eyes wide open as though  unable to unsee the terrifying creature , which had just claimed her life ..a maniacal and sinister laughter reverberated through the night as the hideous creature disappeared with the wonans body , removing all traces of the incident , leaving the child all alone to cater for herself ....the crying voice of the child , tore through the night, disturbing it's serenity ...as though  pleading for help in order to escape the evil that surrounded her  , or the evil she was ..

  A few hours later , by the break of dawn , passengers could be seen boarding a ship , a white  couple stood enjoying the warmth of each other's body , "love bug i really enjoyed our visit to Cameroon this time, it was so adventurous and eventful" the woman whispered as they stood in line waiting for their turn  to board the ship , " you're right babe , but it was only so, because you were there with me " he whispered as well , gazing at her with love filled eyes and laying feathery kisses on her face as she giggled ... " How i wish we had a souvenir to go back with , I feel like we are missing out on something or am being paranoid?" She muttered under her breath but Edward her husband still heard her ..." Don't worry babe , maybe next time we will even carry a baby back "he said dramatically making his wife laugh out loud , before apologizing to the others who glared at them , for the disturbance...

  "Ahhhh a ghost , that's a 👻 st " A young girl screamed running to who seemed to be her mother and burying her head between her thighs , "don't cry t, where's the ghost ? " The lady cooed while questioning her child ..."There " the child said amidst sobs pointing at a distance where a white clothe could distinctly be seen despite the darkness , this gained the attention of everyone ... and they picked up sticks and stones and   approached this 'clothe' with caution as their imagination ran wild , but on arriving at this clothe , they saw no  ghost , what lay before their eyes  was a  seemingly harmless baby wrapped in white , staring at them with curiosity in her eyes , earning gasps from everyone , how on earth  did a baby get here ? This place was quite far from the town , who would leave a baby here and that too alone? Plus why did this baby seem soooo strange ....
