Warriors 19

    Before long the three women helping Gizza were now helping her to give birth to the child.

"This is too early" said one of them.

"We can't really tell but she is carrying a boy. If nature have said it is time then it is time" replied one of them. A moment later the baby was born. The baby refused to cry. One of the women carried him on her arms and looked at the rest with a smile and tears of joy in her eyes said, "it is truly a boy"

"He is the most important person on earth now. Take him and run" said Gizza from where she was lying on the ground.

"We can't leave you here Gizza" said one of them but Gizza was not listening to her instead she made them listen to her. "Save the baby boy. Save my son"

Just then countless arrows began to fall on them from the mountain of rocks. Two out of the three women died instantly. The remaining one collected the baby from the dead woman, took a last look at Gizza before Gizza shouted at her to run. The woman took the baby boy and began to escape the thousands of female warriors descending from the mountain of rocks. Gizza, from where she was lying looked up the rocks and saw the prophetesses of the West standing on the front. Gizza was bleeding profusely. Thousands of women ran passed Gizza and went after the woman who was escaping with the baby boy. Gizza prayed in her heart, beckoning on the gods of Mobi.

The woman carrying the baby reached a clifftop and knew it was over. If she jumped she would die with the baby. There was no other way out. She turned and saw the army of women now standing and watching her. One of the leaders of the army stepped forward and said, "give us the boy or you will both die"

The woman looked at the child, looked at the women, looked at the child again and said, "if this child is truly a saviour of men folk he will survive" she jumped down the cliff with the baby. The women leaders rushed to the edge of the cliff to look down and saw the woman smashed on the ground with the baby. They decided to go down the cliff and pick the boy's corpse and take him with them to the East to show Nabel. When they reached the down cliff they found only the woman dead on the ground. They couldn't find the baby or his corpse.
