"What do you mean?, Heza you are sick, drop the gun. Kamal please grab the gun from her" he ordered kamal who began taking some steps towards me.



"Tariq I am not sick. you are, how can you use All this people for sacrifice. They have mums waiting for them to come back home, dads hoping that their child would be found. Siblings who look up to their siblings are crying for their siblings now. Allah will not be happy with you all" I began crying.



"Heza they don't have feelings, they are animals" Sufy said while walking towards me.



"Yes they are. They are all animals" I muttered. "Now break the calabash now Tariq" I said.



"No!, I am not lossing my powers" Tariq said with darkness engulfing his eyes.

"alright we'll save her but you need to follow my lead" he said and I muttered a yeah.

"You talk too much, Are you ready to see Something extraordinary?" He asked in a whisper and I nodde
