Chapter Nineteen

"Anyways, My king,I would like to know the whereabouts of my parents. Since I came back to Dahomey and rescued the survivals of Dahomey,I haven't seen them"Chris asked when the remaining survivals of Dahomey had left the king's palace leaving only him, Christoph, the king and his daughter.

As if an answer to his question,a deep silence was given. The wind blew over the ruins of the Dahomey palace. Over the time when the hundred Oyo soldiers had conquered Dahomey killing a lot of Dahomey citizens, the soldiers must have burnt the kingdom.

"My king, I ask again,I would like to see my parents. Did they escape before the Oyo soldiers attacked? Where did they escape to?I need to know something, where are they?"Chris asked a lot of questions feeling tensed up.

He sensed that something was not right but he couldn't place his finger on it. The king however, cleared his throat and explained.

"I'm so sorry Chris, but all I have for you is bad news"King Azaru said sorrowfully.

"Bad news? What do you mean?"Chris asked somewhat bewildered.

"I mean...."King Azaru wanted to say something when he was interrupted.

"He means that, during the sudden attack by Oyo, your father fought bravely to defend your mother. But was killed and your mother was captured and taken to Oyo"Fiona interrupted saying her words as quickly as she could.

Chris fell to the ground, wasn't actually sure he heard well. Hot tears poured from his eyes as he wailed like a child. Those around him tried consoling him but to no avail. Suddenly, his eyes turned red with anger as his cannies grew long. He pushed those around him with so much force such that they fell to the ground, injuring themselves so badly. As for Chris, he ran out of the palace with the speed of light. Christoph was the first to get up but he couldn't find Chris. He alerted the others and they all went looking for Chris. The remaining survivals joined in the search of Chris, looking for him everywhere but couldn't find him.

Luckily, Fiona found him sitting on the top of a roof starring at the sky with tears on his cheeks. She climbed up to the roof and sat beside him. Chris wasn't startled by her presence, he had heard her breathing sound from miles away.

"A warrior doesn't cry over little things when he has family around. That was the first thing I was taught before I became a soldier"Fiona said.

"But this is not just little thing"Chris said sobbing.

"No need to cry, you are the Omega and the hope of Dahomey. If you go down when the war has not started,who do we cry to. Please, take ❤️ heart and fight it on. Do not lose hope"Fiona said encouraging him.

"He puts his head on her shoulder while she sang songs for him.

"Thank you so much Fiona. I love you so much and I wish we could be friends"Chris said smiling.

"We will get together after all this"Fiona said tapping his head.

Christoph flew up standing on a flying rock that brought him to the top of the roof.

"Particular needs to talk to us. We need to go"Christoph said in a hurry.

Chris nodded his head and left Fiona. He followed Christoph to a quiet place where there was no sign of life around. Christoph stretched his hand and a glowing blue light appeared forming the projection of Particular.

"Take heed. There's no time for chit-chat. You must have heard that your mother has been kidnapped?"Particular asked.

"Yes I know"Chris answered.

"You both shall journey to Oyo empire to get Chris's mother and shall come back. While you are gone, Fiona the king's daughter will be training the one hundred and fifty men(150) before your arrival. Once you both are back from Oyo empire, you shall both gather the one hundred and fifty men (150) and attack Oyo empire bringing the war to them. There's no time for dally -dally and I must warn you, there shall be obstacles on your way to Oyo"Particular said and disappeared.

Particular again appeared to Christoph when Chris wasn't around.

"You must protect him. The gods blessed him with unimaginable power that can be gotten from his fury and rage. Do not let him to awaken the demon in him or else it will be very chaotic"Particular said to Christoph and disappeared.
