Theme: We found it
Lennox walked closer to Owen.
“Dad, please let’s leave him, let us just tell him not to inform the cops, I’m sure he is gonna comply ” Bella said
“And what if he doesn’t ?” Lennox turned and ask Bella
Bella walked closer to where Owen stood.
“Owen, promise you aren’t gonna inform anyone” Bella asked
“I’m not” Owen replied hurriedly in sign language
“Bella, this is a great risk we are taking” Lennox said
“Dad, trust me” Bella said
Lennox nodded and went out with Bella and Seven
Owen sighed and sat on a stool beside him.
“Are this people so cruel? They even wanted to cast spell on me so I can lost my memory” Owen thought

“Feathers, wake! this man that accommodates us is working for Lennox, I heard him speaking with Lennox”Mary whispered
Feathers listened and opened his eye.
” Really, then we need to leave this place immediately” Feathers said
Mary nodded staring around in fear
“You know what? Pretend as if u wanna receive fresh air outside , then walk away, don’t worry, I will be safe, I will find you, just run to somewhere safe ” Feathers said
“I’m scared, I do not know anyone here, what if I got lost, what if u did not find me, am I gonna spend the rest of my life in this village?” Mary said in fear
“No, u ain’t gonna spend the rest of ur life in this place, that is our only medium of escape, just leave, Mary, look into my face and trust me, I’m your brother and I can not hurt you, the man will soon enter and cast spells on us, run away, I will find you, I promise” Feathers said assuredly
Mary nodded and summoned little courage . she went out, she met the man just coming in
“My daughter, at this time of the night, where are you going? ” The man asked
“Sir, the heat is quiet much on the mat, I ain’t used to sleeping on mat, just wanna take some fresh air outside” Mary lied
“Alright my daughter, don’t stay long outside ” The man said and entered
Mary stepped out and stared around, he didn’t see anyone , everywhere was dark, he ran into the dark and kept running trying to find a shelter for herself
Feathers pretended to be sleeping , after few minutes. He coughed. He coughed again and continued faking coughs
“My son , why are you coughing ?” The man asked and moved closer to Feathers
Feathers stood up and went outside without replying the man
“Where is my sister?” Feathers asked the man
“Your sister! She should be around the vicinity, she said she is wanna take some fresh air outside here ” The man replied
“This is how I cough every night and the drug I do use to become healed is with my sister, I need to see her or I may die anytime soon” Feathers lied and continued faking coughs in the middle of his speech
The man was perplexed
“Isn’t her name Mary?” The man said
“Yeah, but I can’t remember telling u her name” Feathers thought
He nodded
He confirmed at once that the man actually knew about them
“Mary! Mary!” Feathers kept yelling and walking towards the dark
He kept walking into the dark and he kept calling Mary till he faded off
“What is wrong with all this children, did he think his sister is lost, maybe her sister is in the backyard or somewhere close , but now, he is searching for her , what if he get lost, anyways, that’s their problem, the two of you should come back soon so I can cast the spell I was ordered to cast on you” the man thought and sat at the entrance of his house
After an hour of waiting, he got disturbed and wondered where they had gone
.”this children must not get lost, Lennox is gonna scold me . I need to find them” the man thought
The man walked in,side the dark in search of Mary and Feathers till he faded off

Jude bowed his head in school by recess time, he wasn’t speaking nor playing with anyone like he used to do. His face looks sad and his heart is heavy.
He had searched and tried every means to get to Mary but he couldn’t. He feared that something bad might have happened to the lady he likes. He misses Mary so much.
“Jude, can you stop thinking about Mary please” Thomas , his one and only adviser said
“I wish I can but I can’t. Her soul and mine are intertwined, I’m addicted to seeing her, I wanna see Mary please” Jude pleaded to his friends as if his friend knew where Mary was
“Jude, she might be sick or busy at home, let’s wait till next week” Bigger said .
“I can’t wait no more brother, I felt empty without seeing Mary around” Jude said
“Cheer up Jude, how about we sing on how you miss Mary so much” Thomas suggested
“Will that make me see her?” Jude asked and buried his head on his palm
“No, but it will comfort your soul and give you hope” Bigger said
Thomas nodded to confirm what Bigger said

Collins sat in the back sit in class like he always do with Owen who is now sitting with him
“Collins, I wanna tell you something ” Owen said in sign language
“No don’t, follow me outside, that witch may be hearing” Collins said and stood up
Collins and Owen walked out of the class
“I’m all ears now” Collins said
“Bella and her Father came to Mary’s father’s house yesterday to kidnap him , they wanted to cast a spell that will erase my memory but Bella insisted” Owen said in sign language
“You mean Bella’s father had Lennox in his custody presently?” Collins asked
“Yeah, but please don’t tell anyone, don’t even report to the cops” Owen pleaded in sign language
“I ain’t a kid bro, I will handle it, do not worry” Collins said
“What are you gonna do cus I do not want then to know that the information got leaked by me” Owen said in sign language
.”calm down, follow me” Collins said and went to Josh’s class
He called Josh out and Josh followed them outside the class
Collins told Josh what Owen said
“Mary’s father is being kidnapped in broad day light by this evil people, we need to help Seven” Josh said
Owen looked at Josh and Collins interchangeably for what they are about to do
“I know Bella’s house, after we close for the day, let’s go there” Josh said
“I know Bella’s house too, but the thing is, if we go there, how are we gonna save Seven?” Collins asked
“Let’s go there first, what we are gonna do will come” Josh said like he kept one power somewhere to make use of when they got there
“Alright” Collins said and walked back to his class with Owen.
As soon as the bell rang for closing time, Bella went to meet Collins and Owen at their sit before they could stand up to leave the class
“Collins, the alpha, where were you yesterday cus I couldn’t find you in school” Bella said
“Excuse me? Do we have any business, when do we become friends?” Collins asked
“Of course I was not searching for you cus you are my friend , I was searching for you cus I need to take you back to the temple, I don’t care if you are a werewolf or their alpha, all I know is that as long as you keep obstructing my mission, you gonna have to be kept and tamed at the temple till I’m done fulfilling my mission” Bella said
“If I may ask, what is this mission of yours ?” Collins asked
“We aren’t friends so I can’t tell you, I do not have much time please” Bella said and casted a spell on Collins
After she had casted the spell, Collins laughed and sat conveniently on the chair
Owen was surprised that the spell didn’t seem to affect Collins
Bella became furious,she casted one of the most powerful spell she had just learnt on Collins, yet, the spell didn’t have any effect on Collins
“When you are done casting whatever spell you are casting, leave the class or you can as well sleep here” Collins said mockingly
Collins stood up and walked away from her with Owen
Bella felt bad, she disliked herself, she felt embarrassed, no one can ever resist her spell not even a werewolf who is yet to transform
She angrily carried her bag pack and left the class
—————
Feathers kept walking in,side the dark till it was daylight .
“Where am I gonna find Mary” Feathers thought
Feathers suddenly saw a very high mountain and an image of someone standing on it . He stood up from beside a tree he sat, he walked towards the mountain. He stepped up towards the image
It was Mary
“Mary” Feathers called
Mary smiled
“I stood on this mountain so that wherever you are, you can find me ” Mary said
Feathers became happy that he didn’t stress himself too much before he finds Mary
“But that man is gonna be searching for us, he might find us anytime soon” Feathers said
“Feathers, I found the hut of power , it’s beneath this mountain” Mary said and stepped down towards the opposite of where Feathers was coming from
Like the back of the mountain
“Are you serious?” Feathers asked and stepped behind Mary down the mountain
“Brother, do I look like a comedian?” Mary teased on her way steeping down
She got beneath the mountain and Feathers arrived behind her
“That is it” Mary pointed to the hut for Feathers
Feathers saw the hut, he held Mary and they jugged there together
They entered, it was dirty , cobwebs were everywhere, the scrolls are well arranged in the old shelves there
They took the scroll one after the other and start reading

“True, I can’t keep thinking like this” Jude said
“You mean we should perform right?” Thomas asked happily expecting a positive answer from Jude
“Yeah” Jude said and walked to the front of the class
“Hey guys, listen to our song ” Jude said
“Bring it on boy” Vanessa and the other girls who are class gangsters hailed Jude
Jude maintained a sad face, after all, he is about to sing a sad song
Thomas hung and set his girlfriend on his neck. His girlfriend is his guitar
Bigger also set his mouth org-n on his l-ips
They played
🎵🎶 … 🎼🎹
🎼 pa pan ran nnn paran ran ran an pan 🎹
Thomas and Bigger played solemnly
Jude sang;
Don’t I know it? Nobody has to say
I’ve been lucky.
Guess I was born that way
I thank my father,
His absence has made me strong
And I love my mother
But she had troubles with God
No tears for the life that you’ve led
You’ve had angels in your head
Did you hear them singing in the end
All the things that you’ve seen
All the things that could have been
Well I’ve been everything I want to be
So no tears, no tears for me
Yeah, I’ve bathed in sunshine
But cherished the fading light
And I heard my heartbeat faulter
On a winter’s night
I loved a woman
She didn’t hear my prayers
So Lord, oh Lord, I’m yours
No tears for the life that you’ve led
You’ve had angels in your head
Did you hear them singing in the end
All the things that you’ve seen
All the things that could have been
Well I’ve been everything I want to be
So no tears, no tears for me
‘Cause someone some where’s going home tonight
Trying to understand the sacrifice
So save your tears for those left behind
For the life that you’ve led
You’ve had angels in your head
Did you hear them singing in the end
All the things that you’ve seen
All the things that could have been
Well I’ve been everything I want to be
So no tears, no tears
No tears for me
