DUMMIES HAVE THEIR USEFULNESS

Dummies have their usefulness, the legions of dooms were the first on the defensive line, and their strength and inhuman ruggedness were one of the greatest threats against the aliens.
Severed, whacked, chopped, or bitten by the Hoorays' poisonous tail, they keep fighting and only fall dead when chopped into pieces.
At their back, Kira and Akira were seen instructing their warriors, and their flowing gowns and royal gesture makes them look like true goddess.
"Keep fighting, they must not break your defense." Akira cried out.
"Give all you have, the aliens must be stopped." Her sister chipped in.
"Our warriors are depleting, and we can't bewitch the aliens."
"Let's go and asked from Horus and the commander of the jihadists, about the next line of action."
The twins left the war zone, and both walked close to Horus's camp.
Horus, Dija, Augur, the grey hair general, and all the strong fighters, along with the jihadists were sitting around a table in a deep conversation when the twins arrive.
"Our legions are almost killed, we need replacement before the aliens plunged into our midst." Kira let out, as soon as all the eyes peeked at her, and her sister.
"Yes, we are discussing that," Horus answered back and motioned to the twins to sit on the available chairs.
"So what's the plan?" Akira asked.
"We are looking for means to fool Yaris for a while, and allow us to pass through their midst," Horus answered back.
"We need to unite our mobs with the other section with Brenda, then we will be able to defend, as she launched the scepter." The grey hair general let out.
"Where is Brenda?" Akira asked.
"At the back of Yaris warriors, though he wasn't aware," Horus answered back.
"If Yaris got the hint that the scepter is at his back, he will turn his whole warriors after them and they will be consumed before we can break his counter-attacking warriors." Augur explained further.
The twins nodded their heads at the realization of Brenda's delicate situation, and of course, their beloved scepter.
"Yaris wants the scepter, and that is the only object that can cool his anger," Kira said.
"Yes, that was why we were thinking of fooling him with these," Augur said, dipped his hand inside a bag beside him, and brought out the scepter Seoul had dropped as he raced close to Apollon777.
"Unfortunately, my clan will not be fooled twice, and am sure there are one or two scientists among them that will be testing the scepter before we are allowed to pass through them." Horus let out a deep breath, as he explained.
"If our problem is making it real for a while, then we have no problem at all," Kira announced.
"Is that possible?" Horus asked.
"Yes, did you remember when we first met?" Kira asked, with a bewitching smile.
"Damn witch, tapping into my mind!" Horus exclaimed, then offered his innocent smile, when Kira smirked at him.
"Bring me the scepter." Akira stretched her hand towards Argur and a strange image instantly passed through her, and she trembled instantly and was falling, but her sister leaped at her back and then jerked her back to her feet.
"Are you okay?"
"You look faint!"
"Let her seat for a while!"
All the men and the alien at the gathering quickly sympathize with the fainting lady, as she shivers for a while.
"Am okay, get me a chalk," Akira replied the curious eyes on her with a smile, then telepath with her sister. "I can feel his dagger piercing my heart."
Her sister offered a weak smile, then converse with her sister, without uttering a word. "Fear not, I can tap into your fear, and I know how you feel. But believe me, we will prove the prophecy wrong."
After collecting chalk, Akira draw a big circle, and the symbol of pentacles in the middle, while her sister writes different strange symbols on the ground.
"We will be switching this scepter for a while, with the one in Brenda's hand."
"Our spell will only last for an hour."
"Marvelous!" Horus exclaimed, and the remembrance of the first time he has met the twins instantly flowed into his memory.
Indeed, humans are blessed with powers and abilities beyond the alien's scope.
Of course, there are magicians, astrologers, and fortune-tellers in the Hooray's kingdom, yet their talents were just like a drop of water, against a mighty ocean.
Incomparable!
Yaris peeked at the gadget in his front, and he can see some of his Hoorays, climbing into the peak of the rock, after several attempts.
From his actuary calculation, half of them make it, while the rest either lose their grip or feel faint, along the way. "Let them work for their names!" Yaris muttered, and his gadget chose the unfortunate time to ring.
He cursed aloud, then grinned as he saw the numbers calling him, then quickly picked it up and let out. "To what did I own this August call?"
"We will be given you the scepter, but you must allow our troops to pass through." Horus's voice boomed over the speaker attached to Yaris's wing.
"What deceit are you up to, Horus?"
"Humans are weaklings and are now afraid because of our assaults and their casualties. So they are given up?"
"What about you, Horus. Why are you given up?"
"I will demand my right of ceremonial death, and die on my feet, fighting."
"No my friend, you forfeited your right when you make jest of my offer, some hours ago. I have no choice, but to take you back with the scepter."
"You will be given the scepter, let the humans pass. You can pursue me after if you are desperate to capture me."
"I will need to check the scepter first, you can't fool us again."
"Of course," the voice over the phone answered back. "Come along with a few of your warriors, and meet us in the middle of the war zone."
"You will allow me to test the scepter first? I have no time for pranks, Horus?"
"Yes, but you must swear before all gods and goddesses that you will allow us to pass through, after getting the scepter."
"I will swear after I see the scepter, and not before," Yaris answered back. He disconnects the call and stares for a while.
What is Horus up to?
Mischievous of course, but what is his plan?
Lots of questions raced through his mind, but he shrugged and hopped close to the Hoorays at his right flank.
For a brief moment, Yaris wished for the company of Seoul.
Unfortunately, all his recent wishes seemed to be in vain.
