Chapter 183 - ANNIE

Anneliese was sitting down then watched Alek as he was playing hide and seek, then he hydroteleported behind a kid and caught him, then behind another who was hiding in a hole, in a tree, six at once and the last, who was in a Rocker's belly.

Rocker's were usually cattle sized monsters that looked like titanoboas.

Their striking similarity to the snake was broken by the fact that they were herbivores and docile, even known to rescue human babies from animal attacks.

The boy crawled out through its digestive tract and it coughed like a cat then vomited him...them out then Alek grinned as he went into the Fourth dimension to be able to catch two children who were fleeing their old hiding spots at once.

Anneliese smiled till she sensed a woman mentioning a name in my local language and she knew it was that of the woman's child according to her memories.

A child was calling for her mother in Dagbani when she heard her call to her.

The girl started running towards her mother who had her arms outstretched with Anneliese behind her, then Anneliese tapped the woman and said,"Back off."

Its body changed into its original Formless Blob form, then it vaporised into black mist then Anneliese went to the scared child and said to her in Dagbani,"Don't worry Succha, I'll take you to your mother."

The girl nodded then wiped her own tears and followed Anneliese by the hand, till the ground began to form waves that took them back to the village and the girl ran into her angry mother's embrace? No, punishment, the woman was furious as her daughter broke the village's only rule, she went into a place she wasn't cumbersome with alone.

A deer was grazing in the grass when it heard a sound and turned to the side, then immediately sprinted away.

Chief Nadula then looked at Indigo and said,"We'll see who catches it first."

Indigo smirked as the chief immediately morphed into an African fish eagle, then took to the skies.

Indigo darted forward with a strong wind behind him, then twirled as a whirlwind followed him, then blasted it at the running animal, but it literally disintegrated, then appeared in the chief's arms, who was standing on the ground.

Indigo got down, shocked then asked,"How did you do that?"

Chief Nadula placed the terrified animal on the ground, after a glowing rope appeared on all its limbs then he said,"My light enables me to control the fundamental part of everything, I control quarks."

Indigo was surprised as he said,"It's not actually that rare, it's just difficult to activate, your wife has that gene as well."

Indigo then asked,"How close were you and Felicia... N'dala?"

The chief sat down on the colourful quark, gluon plasma material that appeared below him then said,"Your wife was a... wonderful woman, I had been trained all my life to become a powerful king with my light, to extend our kingdom, I was being served hand and foot all my life, but then I met this girl, this beautiful girl of the god generation who showed me that there was more to life than just power and comfort, she showed me the joy in simplicity and contentment and a place which served as a sanctuary for me when the kingdom was attacked. When we were attacked, she saved me and so many other people, risking her life till she was caught and for her beauty, was to be taken as a... source of pleasure to her captives and yet I was too much of a coward to do anything to help her, to help my true love, she was rescued by her family in the night and they fled the village to a place of safety. I was also taken to the city with my mother and guards when my father died, and I never saw her again, I don't blame her for falling in love with Andrew, he was a far better man than I was."

"Don't say that..."Indigo said,"...it was

just by fate that you weren't able to marry her, but he wasn't any better than you, neither am I, you are just as good a man as any, which brings the question, why aren't you married yet?"

Chief Nadula sighed then said,"I may sound obsessed but, I was actually waiting for the day that I'd meet Felicia again, not knowing by then she'd already have such a wonderful family."

Indigo smiled then said,"Thank you, now, how about a rematch?"

The chief looked at him then smirked and said,"You're on, Indira."

"Indigo."

"I know."

They both shot into the air at light speed as the ropes on the deer's hooves disintegrated and it fled.

I was taking a walk through the palace when I bumped into a beautiful maid who shyly apologized and bowed but I didn't want her feeling bad, so I said,"Calm down, I'm not mad or anything like that."

"But why, may I ask, will you be insane?"She asked.

"What? Oh, no I mean mad as in angry, not crazy, what's your name by the way?"

She looked away shyly then said,"Te Nase."

"Wait, like sit down in Twi?"I asked.

"What? Oh no, oh..."She began to giggle.

At that moment, the back of my head was smacked, hard then I turned in pain to Anneliese, who then asked,"What the heck are you doing?!"

"Being nice?"I said, questioningly.

"Oh so now flirting is nice? I didn't know you were into younger girls."She said.

"What? Why on earth would you think that?"I asked, surprised.

"So your lightbulb hasn't gone on yet? Look at her!"

The girl was trying to hide her shyness but she was playing with her hair and fingers and doing whatever it took not to look us in the face, I then said,"That's because you are frightening her."

"Oh I haven't started, and you, slave, stay away from my husband if you don't want to be serving in hell's kitchen, where you belong."She threatened.

The girl looked terrified as I turned Anneliese to face me and yelled,"What is wrong with you?!"

She threw her hand at my face but I caught it in time and looked into her glowing eyes, then had fear, anger and sorrow mingled in my heart as she removed her hand then stormed away in her flawless walk.

I turned back to Te Nase then said,"I'm sorry for my wife's behaviour, she isn't usually like this and I will talk to her."

"Please do sir, because the new arrivals are here and they may be discouraged by her anger, with all due respect."She said.

I took her hand in mine then said,"Please, call me Felix."

"Yes, Felix."She said with a nervous smile.
