14 death the conquer

3 days later

I was in my room thinking about my problem when I heard a knock on the door

"It I Alan ,May I come in "I heard him said

"Yeah "I replied as he came in

"Your majesty "he bow

"Any problem?" I asked

"Yes there is "

"Speak "

"There is a rumor In the kingdom that you are the beast killing the people "Alan said, I wasn't shocked because the rumor is true

"The good news is that no one believes the rumor "Alan said, I was really short of words

"Your highness "Alan said jolting me out of my mystery world

"Any news "

"No"

"I heard the empires had a private meeting three days ago, are you aware of that?" I said

"No Your highness "

"Go tell the messenger to go inform all the empires that I want to see them "I said

"Your majesty, today is not a meeting day "Alan said

"I don't care, I decide what I want and no one can come against it, and I want a feedback from the other kingdom about what they are saying about the rumor "I said

"I already did they already, the people from other kingdoms don't believe it also "Alan said

"What brought about the rumor?, someone is definitely behind it, You need to find that person "I said

"We are on that already, I assure you we will find the person "

"I want the person alive, any other news "I said

"No your highness "Alan said as he bow and left

Oh my damn, this is a big mess, mom , dad please come back and save me from this demon, it going to destroy what you suffered so much for, I am such bad luck,how come I have a demon living in me, why can't I be like others, it hurt and break my heart so much, why can't I do anything about it, what is my offense?,

Something stuck my head, I remember someone, damn me how could I be so heartless, wicked and selfish, it has been three days now, o hope she is not dead yet, damn I don't even know where she lives

"I will help you "a voice said, I turn round, but I was the only one in the room

"You can't see me, but I can help you find her"

"Who are you and how do you expect me to believe you?" I asked

"You don't have to believe me, but deep down you have no choice cos if she dies, you will never forgive yourself, besides she has little time left. "The voice said

"Okay I will go get the herb, and then we will leave "I said

"Don't forget to disguise yourself "the voice said

"Why? Didn't you tell her royalty doesn't mingle with traitor "the voice said

"How did you know I said that?" I asked, and the voice laughed

"I brought he to you but now my job is to take you there and make you forget where she lives "the voice said

"Why do that ?"

"It called destiny, I can't interfere with you both destiny, I am only here to help in hard times, and I am not permitted to help in all hard times "the voice said

"So who are you?" I asked

"You and Alexandra Guardian angel "the voice said

"You are guarding two souls, that unfair. "

"It not but with time you will understand "the voice said

"If you are truly my guardian angel then chase the monster in me away "I Said almost in tears

"I'm sorry like I told you before it not everything I can help with, the one who will chase the monster away is coming, it closes already, history is about to be created "the voice said as tears drop

"Don't cry, it only going to be for a while "

"But why does it have to be me "

"It was a punishment for a wrongdoing "

"What wrongdoing?"

"It was the punishment for what your pa....., tome is not on our side, let go" the voice said

"Tell me what happened "I shouted

"Your voice can't scare me VISHNU "the voice said, putting more stress on my name

I give up knowing I can't see him, so it is impossible I ask for a contest

"You are thinking of contesting with a spirit, funny you "the voice said smiling

"Let go"

I sat beside Xandra,she has been sick for the past two days and it's getting worse ,it was like the herbs we gave her worsen her condition, she is now looking pale and as white as snow,she can't even open her eyes, I don't want Xandra to die, she hardly falls a sick and even if she does, she recover quickly but this one is so shocking

Dad tried all his best, he as spent a lot but the sickness get worst, different herbal specialists has come from different kingdoms, but none could find out what is wrong with her

A man came in, he held Xandra hand like he was checking something in her palm and then touch her head

"It's a poison, a very deadly one, an arrow poison "the man said

"So what are we going to do now?" dad asked

"I don't know cos there is no cure for the poison "the man said

"So she is going to die?"

"Yes she is going to die cos there is no cure, "the man said, and I felt hot tears drop from my eyes

"No she can't die "

"I'm sorry, there's nothing we can do about it besides it already too late the poison has gone very deep, it has weakened all her organs and cells, she can't survive it, the tears won't cure or heal her, I know it hurts, but there's nothing I can do "he said as he left

I looked at Xandra her eyes were still closed

"Poisonous arrow, Xandra never said anything about that or even being injured "dad said in tears

"I guess she doesn't want you to be worried, she knew already that the has no cure, so she doesn't just want you to be broken "I said in tears

"I am broken now, it hurts, I can't bear it, she is my daughter she can't die like that, there has to be a cure "dad cried bitterly

"Papa calm down, tears won't solve this "I said damn I was also crying

"Son I'm sure you know how it feels, your sis dying, I know tears won't solve this, but I can never believe my Sandra will be so lifeless, lying down without thinking of hurting, training or exploring, that happy girl is now lying her lifeless not even smiling as she does while sleeping, I can't help, the memories is still fresh, it hurts Klaus it hurts more than anything, who could have done this to my daughter "dad cried bitterly

"Dad It Okay "

"It not, Xandra will die soon, can't you see, So this is how everything is going to end, this life is nothing and death is so wicked, how could death, if I had my way I would kill death but no one can kill death, not even the strongest warrior, death always conquer, the wisest has spoken but death still conquer, the richest has spent but death still conquer, the saint has prayed but death still conquer, death is just like a mountain, series of lives conspired against mountain, series of cutlasses and weapons conspired against mountain, mountain eat not, mountain drink not yet mountain conquer all, death is a mountain, death is a conqueror, it has conquered my precious gift and left me helpless "dad said as he sat down weakly crying

The room was quite, only the sound of sniffing was heard, everywhere was dull, our source of happiness and liveliness has been taken away from us, will we ever be happy?, will life ever be the same, Xandra can't be replaced, she has taken a part of my heart, a delicate and precious part, she can't be forgotten

We heard a knock

We couldn't stand up cos no one is welcome today and forever

"Is anyone around, I have the cure to the poison and I have come to help, is anyone around, I have to do it before it too late, damn are you certain this is the right house "the person shouted, I didn't know where the strength came from, I and dad quickly got up and rushed to the door and opened the door, we saw a man standing at the door he has a mask on his face

"We have to make it fast, show me where she is "the man said

"Wait how come you know what is happening here, how do you know we need a cure?" I asked

"My friend told me, he is a herbal specialist, so I decided to help "the man said

"Can we see your face?," dad said

"Sorry I can't besides my face doesn't have the cure, and it has nothing to do with what is happening here, I am running out of time "he said as he forced his way inside.
