Welcome miss Kimuta!"She ushered me in with her hand. "Take a seat Anathi!"
I sat hesitantly. I was scared. Deathly scared of what was to unfold before me. I sat shaking, oblivious to what she was about to utter. She sat ransacking the files on her desk."Well miss Kimuta, do you know why you're here! "She asked me with a serious look on her face."To le...lea...learn?!"I said in a shaky and intimidated voice. Even the Dumuzi who would have mocked me or chuckled at my discomfort sat obediently, without reaction at me stuttering in front of our academy's principal."I'm sorry what's that?"She said as if she didn't hear me! I was so scared I didn't dare repeat myself. She looked at me disappointed."You say you're here to learn yet I don't see you come to school to do what you are meant to do!"She said,"Pardon me ma'am, what do you mean by that?"I audaciously asked her. I was tired of being a pushover. I decided I wanted to be bold and confident. It wasRelated chapters

"Was a bit tough in there aye mate?"Dumuzi smirked gazing in my direction while doing his arrogant walk. He was mocking me. "Could tell you were about to burst into tears kid!"He continued."She really put you in a tough spot didn't she? "I ignored him as I paced ahead of him in the corridor. "I'm surprised you didn't dare utter my name!"He tried to catch up to me. I mean you could have if you wanted. Or do you still want to meet up with me for a good time?"I was almost running while hugging my books headed for my locker which was on the second floor hallway. I could feel the warmth of my tears soaking up my rosey cheeks which were probably changing colour in embarrassment. I was about to climb down the stairs when I was suddenly grabbed by the shoulDer and pinned against the wall."Listen bitch! It's a good thing you didn't snitch on me! I told her about it to test you to see what you would do! At one moment I thought you were going to tell her!"He said his ch

Next day at school, I met Kairi but she ignored me. She did not even return my wave. I went to class dragging my feet, hesitating about my day now that I had even lost my best friend. "Look who it is, Anathi the whore!"My bully Carly began to say. "Tsk! Hi w that little whore business of ours going? Made enough for your college?"She smiled in glee as her posse roared out in laughter. I had had enough. I was tired, tired of her, very tired of being bullied. I bound my hands into fists, I was ready to attack her and rip her hair out. "Shut the hell up!"They all circled me. Laughing. "Oh look, the little whore wanna start a fight with us!"Carly's friend began to say as she slapped one hand in the other. They all began to cheer as they started up a mock fight.``Shut the hell up! I have had it with you."They all drew back in fear."Her eyes just changed colour! They are yellow!"One of the girls uttered as she shook. They all went quiet. I had never before fel

So, what made you decide to help me, after all you decided you did not want anything to do with me!"I asked her later on as we sat outside in the school yard."Well, I figured these were the last days of our schooling together and we have been best friends for a long long time, Anathi,"she said as she hugged me. "I wouldn't want our friendship to end like this, you know the moment he came to me and threatened to have my father lose his job if I didn't do what he asked, I was scared. He wanted me to break my friendship with you for good and also to bully you like everyone else, so that you don't have any friends left."She said,to my utter shock."Who?"I asked her, failing to comprehend her words that had seeped into the hollows of my ears."Dumuzi of course!"She said to me,"So Dumuzi did this? All this?"I uttered in a state of disbelief and suddenly all that had happened to me in my young life flashed before my very eyes. Sudde

After half an hour of torturing us they seemed tired yet unsatisfied. My brother lay in a pool of blood on the floor. He had stopped moaning and he was still."Please spare us!" My sister begged as she wept. "I have to take my brother to the hospital!""Hospital!" Hoe head chanted. "You think your brother's life is worth more than your sins? You still haven't told us yet who Anathi is. Is it the lass we tossed about!"My sister did ynot answer but wept even more, then she began to beg him to spare me."Your little sister here exposed our very sacred life to the mundane a and you expect us to save her life!" The leader said to my sister who was utturely engulfed in immense, tears."Hoe-head" he motioned to the guy who had blocked me at the gate. "Take the problem outside and get rid of it!" He said to my horror. My young life flashed before my eyes. I was shivering, scared. I would never have begged for my life though because

I slowly made my way back home through the forests, carefully. I did not want to get caught by any of those uncivilized council thugs incase they were searching for me. I then walked briskly afraid of the hollows that came with the night. The moon was high up in the night blueish- navy sky with a few stars twinkling in the distance. The forest was quiet, deathly and deafeningly quiet except for a few critters of the dark that haunted the peaceful night. The smell of the semi wet soil penetrated my nose. I was heaving with anger, with fear. Was my family okay? Had my sister really been ravished? How could my life have crumbled to this! That Dumuzi, I felt so much anger for him even though he was in prison. Suddenly, I felt a fear I had never felt before. My heart broke at the thought of my sister, and how those men must have treated her. Deep inside of me was a hesitating feeling urging me to turn back and not return home but I kept on on m

Chapter FifteenThe sun's rays lit up my room through splinters in my curtains at dawn and I found my self awake, awake with a heart too heavy to bear the burdens brought forth by yesterday's troubles. I lay staring at the ceiling and ruminating on what was to become of my young life. My father wanted me to go hide out in Egypt, to commence my life as a slave under the supreme pharoahnic rule as there was no hope and no abundance for Atlantis citizens like I in that land of the living deities. I was scared. I was afraid of the unknown.It was in that moment I gained a whim of courage ruminating on how I was going to face my problems that something suddenly happened. My sister knocked on my door, as if she knew I needed her in this bleak moment."Come in. I uttered."Wakey wakey, aren't you going to school today Anathi?"",School? I asked her. Where is dad and how can I be thinking of school when you know what happened with our brother. I

**Introduction** Atlantis; Deep in the hallows of the sanctified land that birthed all life in flesh; is a place where the greatness of monarchies, pharoahnic dynasties prevailed and dominated the kingdoms of the world, a place where the legendary creatures; dragons began their course of life on this earth to their untimely extinction, lies my homeland Atlantis.

As soon as we got home, I collapsed on my warm bed and lay there ruminating on the day's events. The evening was warm and I paced to open my window gazing at the moon for a moment. The same lunar mother that had cursed me with this gift that would see my father going to all ends for it. I had seen it all and I was no longer willing to see how far my father was willing 5o go in order to have me transform. I sat on my bed. I had a horrible headache from smelling the smelly strange herbs the snake spirit had blown in my face. I still shivered. I was still shaken by the day's events. And to think being a wolf blood and seeing my family transform still does not scare me as much as when I saw the woman changing into a snake. I lay in the bed as my back ached and my painful ankles and joints tormented me from the long journey we had made back home. We had travelled the rest of the a
