The Conqueror Series

Warriors 8

At the site beyond the sea in the North, Gizza and her horde had increased to a large army after arming those slave women with weapons. Gizza spoke to them and her voice echoed in the air., "today we make another history as we march to take over Kanju kingdom; the same kingdom that has seen you in chains, separated you from your children and murdered your husbands"

"But it was you who murdered our husbands. Most of those slave men in this site were husbands to most of us but you murdered them alongside the guards from Kanju palace" said one of the slave women. Gizza approached the woman and said, "you are not pleased that I set you free from men?. Men is our problem. They have always been. They deny us the things we deserve. They take from us our precious freedom and call it favour. They r**e us, head us and e*****e us. It was men that enslaved you here; men like your husbands" Gizza's speech moved most of the ladies as most of them began to roar in anger. "Lead us Gizza!, We want to fight, all men must die" these statements started emanating from the crowed. Zina looked around and smiled. Soon most of the slave women were now chanting war song and raising their weapons in the air. Their voices began to unite in *all men must die* chant. Gizza looked at the silent woman who had challenged her with words and waited for her response. To Gizza's surprise the woman came closer to her and kissed her. This act irritated Zina but she controlled her temper. "I'm with you my Queen" said the woman.

Not long, Gizza saw the army from Kanju sailing on the sea towards them. Gizza was shocked. They watched to behold Prince Davi of Arika heading the army. 

"I said it. He has eventually become our problem" said Gizza.

"Do not fear my Queen. He is from Arika and not Kanju. He doesn't know the ways of Kanju soldiers but these women here do. We have to fight" said Zina. The Queen of Arika was so happy as her eyes were filled with tears. She continued to stare towards the sea with her heart beating faster. That was her son approaching. But the sad truth was that she was going to fight her own son.

On the sea approaching was Davi, who continued to sail with his eyes resting at the site and knowing fully well that Gizza had taken over the site, commanded the soldiers of Kanju to kill all the women at the site if they refused to surrender.

 Gizza knew that they were outnumbered yet she was not going to give up. She turned and saw Zina staring into space again. She held her hand and felt the coldness in it. Zina was actually staring at the little boy Gizza killed in the palace of Arika. 

"Zina not now please. I need you" Gizza begged, with fear of Zina fainting again in the midst of battle.

 To the greatest shock of the rest, Zina drew her dagger and stabbed Gizza in the stomach. Gizza held her stomach and fell. The  rest looked at one another. The Queen knew that if Gizza died she would be released from her vows to the group which had become an army. She would now fight for her son. They watched Gizza as she laid on the ground, holding her stomach with her blood crawling on the ground. Zina turned and saw the little boy still staring at her. She got the message quite alright. She turned while the rest watched her and faced the sea. Davi and his army were very close and some of the soldiers were already throwing spears at the site, thereby killing some of the slave women. Zina bent down and put her hand in the sea and there before their very eyes was a heavy storm. The storm hurled the ships n the sea. This terrified Davi and the rest of the soldiers. There was thunderstorms and lightening, some of the ships began sing and soldiers began to die. The slave women chanted happily as they watched this. The Queen was terrified too for she knew that her son would soon die. She drew her sword and stabbed Zina from the back but the sword turned, used the dagger she used on Gizza and stabbed the Queen on the neck. The Queen fell as blood gushed out from her mouth.

When Zina turned again to look at the sea, all the ships had sunk in the sea and there was no single soldier seen on the water. The whole women at the site began to celebrate their victory while some were still not happy with what Zina did to Gizza.

Zina led the army of slave women round the sea and out of the site  and headed to palace of Kanju.

In the Kanju palace, message had reached the king and he was restless. His soldiers were all dead and he had no other choice. Sending for allies needed time and time he didn't have.

Nabel heard the news too and was very much happy. She waited patiently inside her cell for the slave women. She couldn't wait to join hands and wipe out men for good for Davi had shown her that all men deserved to diebent instead of digging deep inside Zina. This was strange too. Zina turned, used the dagger she used on Gizza and stabbed the Queen on the neck. The Queen fell as blood gushed out from her mouth.
