A fight with Lord of Darkness

Ochieng'was having his greatest fight since he was born. He was powerful enough but the Lord of darkness was not a pushover either. By the time the two men and one woman arrived, they already had injuries from different parts of their bodies. Ochieng' had an animal skin on his body so it was not torn but the Lord of darkness was different. His green robe was in a mess.

The three concealed themselves so the two were not aware of their presence yet. Tired, the fight was getting interesting. Punches, kicks, different forms of energies were being sent towards one other. One particular punch landed on Ochieng's nose deforming it. Angry, he sent one on his opponent's mouth. The latter's teeth danced in the air beautifully before falling to the ground.

After an hour, the Lord of darkness decided to end the fight. He took in a deep breath before letting out flames from his mouth. The flames headed towards Ochieng' with great speed. As they travelled through the air, the flames took the shape of small swords. The swords were so sharp that they pierced the air. The flames also emanated heat, so great that they would burn one to ashes if one stood not too far away from them.

Ochieng' felt his heart beat faster than usual upon seeing those swords approach. He even felt a chill run up his spine. But then, he realised that this was probably Lord of darkness' most powerful move. After all, the fight had gone for far too long, only a killing blow was necessary.

The Lord of darkness knew that he had ended this fight. He hovered in the air proudly as he waited to see that fool of an Ordainer fall. When his flames were a few centimetres away from that young man, he was so excited that he even laughed involuntarily. However, what happened next was completely out of his expectations.

The young man gave a wicked nonchalant smile before gently lifting his right hand to the level of his chest. Tapping his forefinger forward, an aerial sphere the size of a football formed before him. The sphere was rotating in a gradual speed. When it was in a high speed, it started sucking everything around: dust, leaves and even small sticks.

"Go!"

Ochieng' pushed the sphere towards Lord of darkness. Its speed was so high that the Lord of darkness did not react in time to counter or even evade the attack. He was hit directly on his abdomen. This sent him flying before landing on the roof of his palace. With that, the area he landed collapsed sending half of the building into ruins. The people who weren't expecting such a thing were scared out of their wits and they fled. Some even died after being hit despite being almost perfectly immortal.

Ochieng' decided to follow to see if that devil died but he stopped as soon as he heard a beautiful feminine voice shouting 'stop'. He then saw a beautiful young woman appear before him alongside two other men.

"You must be the Supreme Monarch, right?" Ochieng' smiled knowingly.

The woman before him was beautiful but that was not going to make him stop pursuing the Lord of darkness. He wanted to get this over and done with. However, he knew he was fighting Lord of darkness because of an enmity existing between that god and this Supreme Monarch. Because of that, he forgot about finishing Lord of darkness off.

"Eeh, I am Supreme Monarch and One from above, the one you served." The woman answered patiently.

"It is an honour to meet you." Ochieng' bowed slightly.

"I am flattered. Ochieng', thank you for your help. After father left us, he made me the Supreme Monarch, what my eldest brother did not like. He is the only one amongst us capable of creating life. To make things difficult for us, he made the dark world and those who live in it. Once again, thank you for your help." The Supreme Monarch said humbly.

Ochieng' wanted to ask more questions just as the Supreme Monarch wanted to ask him but were asked by the Heir of wisdom to wait so that they dealt with the Lord of darkness first. They all went to the debris only to miss him. They tried searching for him inside the entire palace but he was nowhere to be seen. The people were also gone. They fled when they saw the palace collapse. According to them, maybe a disaster was coming and no one was courageous enough to wait for it.

"You will search the entire day but you will not find me."

As the four almost finished searching the palace and its surroundings, the roaring of the Lord of darkness was heard. He sounded confident. It was hard to perceive the direction where the voice came from as it seemed to come from all directions.

Pah!

The four stopped whatever they were doing and as soon as they did, the sound of a slap echoed before the Supreme Monarch was sent to a nearby piles of stones.

"You are courting death..." The Heir of wisdom spurted as he put his guard up but even before he finished, an invisible kick landed on his chest and like his sister, he flew on air before landing on a large concrete in a miserable state.

The Maker of Ordainers knew before the four he was the least powerful. He therefore did nothing even try to resist when he was lifted with his neck by an invisible hand before being left to fall down with his head first.

Ochieng' was quite prepared by now, even so, he was slapped on the face and like the other three, he fell into a pile of stones covering some parts of his body.

"You coward, why don't you come out and face us in a direct battle?"

Supreme Monarch spouted, veins covering her entire face by dint of anger.

"I am not stupid sister. You know it's hard for me to face you alone let alone my two brothers joining forces with you. With the addition of that freak, I cannot jump to my death." Lord of darkness laughed.

"Alright good then, just know that you are not going to hide for long." Supreme Monarch harrumphed coldly.

"Maybe after you are all dead will you find me, immortals." The Lord of darkness laughed again.

The other three were already on their feet. Even before they took in a puff of air, an invisible tool landed on each one of them simultaneously. The four were again sent to the ground. This time under the dust that covered their entire faces, anger could be seen clearly. This was especially for the Supreme Monarch. She was a gorgeous goddess after all.
