Ocen remained devastated no knowing what to do next. So he decided to go west, he therefore picked some of his able bodied men together with the necessities give by the king that can sustain them for couple of weeks.
He treked dressed and marched like a caravan of traders they went west. Not knowing where they were going yet they treked .
As in the jungle, the warriors are also doing their best in unraveling the mystery behind the disappear of their prince and the two commanders.
" I think there heading towards our direction, said one of the she warriors. Wait! If they head towards the river then we shall execute the plan. responded Akello.
Days elapsed, the she warriors were still in the jungle spying at the intruders of Abela kingdom.
Unfortunately a tragedy happened when the warriors were treking looking here and there, they bumped into a tiger that managed to Chase after them, hence leading them to the river side. Wondering where the tiger come from since all dangerous wild animals were all kill by Maria and the she warriors.
" Where on earth did this tiger come from! It's been years ever since we hunted for all willd animal in this jungle up to date we haven't seen any, so where did this one come from? Akello asked, " the who should we ask since we're as confused bas you! And by the way, the warriors are heading towards the river, one of the she warriors said.
They were left with one option , and that was to tame the tiger so as to stop the warriors from heading to the river , which seemed impossible cause they had already approached the the river.
All they were now thinking of is to find away to Capture them alive. They divided them selves in to two groups, one group went ahead of them as the other remained behind.
But all there plans seemed impossible since the other party were scattered.
" Miasma is what we can use now. Said Akello. She then instructed those Infront and those behind to release miasma engulfing the warriors in the middle.
The warriors found it strange as when they looked back it was cloudy same to Infront. Suddenly they started to fall off one bey one.
Seeing all of them laying down unconsciously, the she warriors carried all of them to the village. Waking up mazed, they looked around strangely not knowing where they were.
" What is this places ! They wondered amidst themselves . As they were still puzzled, they glimpsed around and saw Epiru their chief guard.
Wh..a..t are you doing in here! And what is this place? They asked him. Lost in words Epiru didn't know how to explain to them. Either to tell them that there in the restored Morungatuny lead by female or to pretend to be lost too
" Please! Enlighten us, how did you get in here and why are we not seeing Uben. Asked another warrior, and who brought us here?
"He has no strength to answer your question, a sharp gentle voice coming from the door answered it was non other than Akello.
" Who are you? They asked again. Am a nobody, knowing me won't benefit you, better to ask why you're here that's the most important issue at hand right now. Akello responded and then turned around and left .
The warriors were more confused and as to Epiru who is supposed to enlighten them was also speechless. Please chief guard, we're already flabbergasted, we come in search of you and now we have ended up being prisoners and who are these people? They asked again.
"They are your people.... A voice come from the dark corners of the prison accompanied by laughter, it was one of the captives of Getom.
'What do you mean by one of our people! They asked again eagerly.
Survivors....they are the survivors of the fallen kingdom, Morungatuny and it's now lead by women, upon hearing this they were all suprise, women!.. They shouted in a high tone with their eyes wide open.
"They aren't just women, they are men in women's bodies as he laughed and said let you chief guard tell you more he experienced from those women. Said aman from Getom.
The whole thing was so confussing to the newly captured warriors.
Let's think of how to leave here, one warrior suggested. "Don't you ever in your entire life think of such a thing, said Epiru harshly knowing what he and Uben went through when they tried to escape.
What do you mean! Your supposed to be the one to lead us out of here yet you oppose! Why? They all wondered. Not wanting to get ashemed by telling his subordinates that they attempted to escape but the end result was bad, he only had one choice and that was to suggest they first make a strong plan.
Let Epiru not deceive you, a voice said again from the dark. He and his friend attempted to escape but the failed, they found themselves back in this prisons the same way you all found your selves here. Or "do you know how you reached here? He asked.
The warriors looked at themselves not having a real specific answer the they all nodded their heads in response to "no".
Ocen had also already found where he can get slaves from, but they had a hinderence which was the distance since the other kingdom had another three kingdoms in between them and Getom.
Not to worry he immediately come back to inform the king of his findings,
" Greetings my king. he said with a gleeful smile on his face.
Arise the great warrior of Getom, the king replied. So what good news do you have for me! .
My king l have seen a beautiful flower that awaits to be uprooted. He said referring to the kingdom that awaits to be raided of the slaves.
Upon hearing this the king was so happy....
