LET THE CAT OUT OF THE BAG

A few minutes after the distress call made by one of the named Hooray, a spaceship suddenly appeared, descended and the remaining living Hoorays hopped inside.
The spaceship soon flew out of sight, amidst the twins jeering and the zombies grunting.
"Running off in fear!" Akira exclaimed.
"They should have stayed and felt the blades of our swords and the fury of our magic."
"Aye! They were bunches of a weakling and quicker to retreat." Akira bragged.
"Let's forget about the aliens and talked about getting our scepter back."
"But we have already allied with Brenda and her gang?" Akira asked with a stunned gaze at her sister.
"Ally with human, why should we descend so low?"
"Then why don't we strike at them when we have the chances?"
"Patient!" Her sister replied. "We will have our chances soon."
"Did you think the humans will be bound by their vow?"
"They will be foolish to, they will speak with false tongues when the time arrives!" Kira exclaimed back.
"Let's make our camp here tonight, I believe they will soon join us before daybreak."
The twins, with the help of their zombies, soon erected a tent and the twins went inside and soon fell into a deep sleep.
But for the zombies who need no sleep, and demanded none, they were seen grunting from mouth to mouth as they marched around the twin's tent.
The legion of dooms soon became silent, perhaps the grunting zombies are tired of their meaningless music and had now decided to keep quiet for a while.
But the silence was shattered as Brenda and her gangs marched into the legion of dooms camp.
"Let's rest and resumed our journey at daybreak." Brenda let out a yawn, looked at Bobby, and smiled crookedly at him.
"I want to go with my two generals and some of my men, to gather my remaining men."
"Should I go with you, my friend?" The grey-hair general asked with a smile.
"Not necessarily, I will be back as soon as possible."
"Did you still remember the route I showed you?" Brenda asked.
"Yes," the commander-general answered back. "I have the copy with me, we will be following after you, and I believe we will soon catch up with you in a few days."
"Please make haste," Brenda said.
"We will soon meet you, and thanks again for saving our lives." The commander-general let out, whirled from the lady standing in his front, walked off and hopped on his horse, then galloped off.
And he was followed by his two generals and hundreds of his jihadists.
As for the rest of the column, they were seen erecting tents and entering inside to rest their weary bones.
Inside one of the erected tents, a couple was seen in a romantic posture, as the lady lay on the hairy chest of a man.
"I still can't believe we are back together." Reagan let out, kisses Maria deeply, then gazed with surprise at her shocking look. "Are you okay?"
"Yes, just tired. We need to talk." The lady answered back.
Today, she had decided to let the cat out of the bag.
"You have been fighting for a longer time and deserve a rest," Reagan answered back, then asked. "What did we need to talk about?"
"About us!"
"Us?"
"Yes, we can't continue this relationship."
Maria's words were like a dagger in Reagan's heart and he blinked back with shock. "Why can't we continue this relationship?" A shivering voice asked.
"Because am pregnant!"
"You are what?"
"You heard me, Reagan, I'm pregnant for another-" Maria paused at the absurdity of what impregnated her.
"You are pregnant for him... For an alien?" Reagan pushed the lady laying on her off his chest, crouched on his elbow and glared at the one who had captured his life, enriched it, and now broke it into thousands of pieces. "You are pregnant for him!"
Maria watched the tears flowing down Reagan's face, blinked back her tears which now flowed into her chin, then muttered out. "I'm sorry, Reagan. That is all I can say, am so sorry!" The lady stood up abruptly, then marched out, and cleaned her tears as she stepped out into the open field.
Maria walked off the camp absentmindedly and soon found herself among the silent zombies who soon grunt widely at her sight.
One among the zombies walked close to the lady who now stopped and glared back at him. A few steps to reach the pretty lady, the zombie dashed his hands forward and tried to grab the lady in a deadly embrace.
Maria stepped back, grabbed the outstretching arms, whirled, and flung the man over her head, then smacked him down and a dagger suddenly appeared in her hand, then plunged into the other eye of the laying zombie.
"You dare touch me again with your filthy hands, and I will be cutting your hands off next." The lady rolled off her prisoner, stand on her feet, and walked back towards where she emerged.
The zombie, once blinded in one eye by one of the twins some time ago, and now in the other eye by Maria, stood up, walked blindly for a while, then pulled the two daggers off his eyes socket, and fell as he slipped by stepping on some dried leaves.
His fellow zombies grunt louder at his great fall, then leaped around to jeer his blind effort to stand on his feet.
Geisha and his aliens that were lost inside the Amazon jungle, cutting down plants and trees, in a bid to get out of their traps. But their efforts can be compared to pouring water into a basket.
Fruitless!
After hours of hard labor with little or no result, Geisha ordered his warriors to relax under some big trees with strange oval-shaped fruits.
"Let's rest for a while, my wrists ached," Geisha announced to his Hoorays, and the aliens were seen sprawling under the shade of the large trees.
But their well-deserved relaxation was abruptly cut short when the strange fruits burst out tiny snakes that soon felled and bites the dozing aliens, and another commotion sprang up.
The Hoorays raced off from the trees' vicinity and the wounded ones were soon made whole by the physicians in their midst.
"Since there is no perfect place to relax, let's keep going!" Geisha exclaimed with a tired frown.
The aliens keep cutting and uprooting, but when the twenty-four hours of their mysterious journey into the Amazon jungle was over, they were suddenly plunged back into the field where they were once transported.
Unfortunately, the field was empty of any living things except the patient vultures who gaped back at the intruders who just make them hop off their meals.
"Where are the rest?" Geisha asked with a stunned, jerked suddenly as his phone rang, and he quickly accept the call.
"Have been sending lots of unreplied mail to you, sir." A hissing voice boomed from the speaker attached to Geisha's wing.
"What is going on?"
"All efforts to reach you for the past twenty-four hours had proved abortive, sir" the hissing voice replied.
"Twenty-four hours?" Geisha asked back with a tremor.
It had seemed like two hours where they had come from, and the sudden emptiness of the field when they arrived had been a puzzled that is now solved. "I have been locked in a damn jungle for twenty-four hours?"
"The spaceship that will be taking you back home is on the way, I ordered for it as soon as you became available on my radar."
Geisha didisconnecteded the call and sat on the ground inwardly.
Indeed, the gods and goddesses only crowned the efforts of those who they cared about.
As for others, sorry is their case!
