Chapter 6 - Determined

Hanza was surprised to see her brother Hans dining with the devil himself. I knew Hans was cunning but I never thought he could go this far to harm his own. Hanza explained to her mother. "How then did your father know all of these? If it wasn't so,he couldn't have given you the Royal sealed which means he planned it all." " Mother I don't know what to say but all I xac say is. That wasn't ordinary,the way he used to live. He always knew things before they happened." "Yes,that's true,no wonder people always called him names and sometimes I must say I got scared of him." "Mother please,there is no time for us to seat and be discussing things now. You Know everything now. I have to go." " Ooh my little daughter, life is so unfair to you .you are too young for all these.allow the generals to go and fight the battle. If our kingdom is to win,we will still win,the gods are with us." Her mother said with tears in her eyes. Hanza took her mother's face into her palms and drew her closer and said " mother,I don't know what is happening. It was not for nothing that Dad gave me this Royal sealed. So I won't seat with the royRo sealed back in the kingdom while our soldier go out for war without the Royal sealed. That reason behind this sealed,I don't know but all I know is that,am at the point of discovering it. Just be strong for me, that's all am asking of you." With that,she burried herself in her mother's embrace and sob. "I love you so much mother" and without waiting for her mother's reply,she vanished immediately. In her room,she looked at her reflection in the mirror and took a deep breath,then said to herself "I believe in you,you can make it girl." Turning away,she walked towards her war attire and stired at it saying " today,we are going to make history for ourselves. Which shall be told to several generations." She then slide into her war attire . As she advanced the assembly ground, everything went still ,all eyes on her and many people were left with mouth open. She has never been seen Waring a trouser before,the trouser carved her hips out perfectly well so much so that it fitted moderate chest. Her long black and curly hair which she tied it up in a ponytail fell on her back makes her oval face carved out perfectly. Her big but charming eyes keep everyone captivated under her look. Her soft and red lips which always end up with a smile can't fail to keep one begging for more just after a smile. "She looks like a goddess," one of the guards jorked. All the crowd shouted,"long live the princess,long live the princess,long live Parkish. Victory is ours cause our king though death,but is still with us. Hanza raised her hand up in sign of power and said" long live Parkish,our Homeland. Generals and soldiers,men and women,the youths and children of Parkish. Today we stand to face war with the people of Ucrest. Though we have no king,our Royal sealed is her, together we are stronger and we shall conquer. Fear not for no one can harm us. For generations,we have been the most powerful Kingdom this world have ever had,it is not today,this is going to change. Fight soldiers for your honor till the last drop of your blood. Only then she we make victory. We are not afraiiiiiiiiiiiid". She said raising her hand up once again and all the crowd with the soldiers raised the swords shouting, ooooo ,ooooo,ooooo Parkish Parkish Parkish forever. The mother of Hanza was standing up the balcony,the last floor up,her eyes filled with tears and her faced glow with a smile of proudness. She was surprised to see how much her little girl have grown so big. There were Ten thousand soldiers ready for the battle,headed by Ten generals. Hanza deāaacided to take along five thousand, keeping behind the remaining Five thousand soldiers to mount guard 24/24 for the kingdom. Some selected and well trained soldiers were kept by Hanza to watch over the Queen 24/14. Hanza mount the horse and took the lead while the crowd cheer her up.
