A LITTLE MOLE-LIKE A MOUNTAIN

Time is slow when you are idle, but flies like birds when you are on your feet.
The War that begins in the mid-day, persists till nightfall, and until the following morning, and the aliens with Yaris were almost consumed when the spaceship brings another section of ten thousand warriors.
"Argh, at the right time!" Yaris exclaimed, hopped up, spread his legs, and thrust them into the chest of two jihadists attacking with swords.
He peered like a predator at its prey as the two men staggered for a while, and he instantly hopped close to the nearest man.
The man saw the alien leaping at him and tried to roll off his reach, but his attacker somersaulted twice, slashed his weapon forward, and chopped his arm off, as he tried to backlash his thrust.
Yaris quickly severe the man's head off, and the screaming mouth remained stiff.
The second man soon regain his balance, whirled at his attacker, and slashed at his head, but the alien stepped off the edge of his sword, dived to his back, hopped on him to knock him down, and something poisonous bites him, and he instantly fell dead.
Unknown to him, he was bitten by the alien's tail.
The alien's spaceship hovered and descended, and excited aliens soon hopped down, then raced close to the war zone to help their fighting comrades.
When the commander-general of the jihadists saw the new section of aliens, he instantly ordered his warriors to retreat, and restrategize.
"They are too numerous and we can't withstand their assault in a fair fight." One of the generals of the jihadist let out.
"They are all with their weapons of death." The other general announced, with a grimly look.
"Let's retreat, and climb into the upper side of the rock." The commander-general said.
"Yes," one of the generals answered, cupped his hands, and cried out. "Retreat into the rock, now!"
Yaris grimaced as the humans scrambled towards the back of the rock, and he ordered his warriors to pursue them and announced after.
"There is a secret tunnel, don't let them disappear into it."
The new arriving aliens, filled with strengths and enthusiasm, raced after the retreating humans, fired at them, dived off their weak shots, and shot back.
"Hide behind the tree, don't get hit by the blazing arrows."
"Face them while you retreat, you are exposed, when you turn your back at them."
"Delay them as long as you can, until the rest of the column passed through."
The commander-general and his two generals were heard as they issued the last order, then leaped into the hole that leads into the rock.
These words have no meaning to me." Horus announced, as soon as he was through with his precise interpretation of their language into the English language.
"It has a meaning and it's the code to unleash this scepter," Brenda answered back.
"One is light!" Bobby exclaimed. This should be easy, but unfortunately, it isn't. Nothing seemed easy, since the knockdown, and the sudden emergence of the aliens.
"Will need to decode this poem?" Maria cried out.
"Before all gods and goddesses, I have no idea," Horus answered back.
"I suggest we think of the literal meaning of it." Dija let out.
"Then the first one probably stands for the eye," Brenda said.
"And the second one stands for the second eye. It followed what the first eye sees." Bobby muttered.
"And the third is nose!" Augur exclaimed. "Nose breath in oxygen, which is the source of life."
"And last but not the least-" Horus paused, then grinned at all the exited humans in their front, and laughed out, as they all cried out.
"Mouth!"
Of course, the mouth is the power of a scornful woman, and any man unfortunate enough to marry one will get lashes of the tongue for eternity.
It still beat Brenda's imagination, while she was unable to unravel such a simple coded message, but she quickly agreed with the saying; you can't cheat nature. It's been three days of marching nonstop, two days of fighting, and a day of a temporary truce.
When under stress, duress, or other unfavorable conditions, the human brain had been proved to be slow in recognizing, processing, and in responding to the messages sent by human senses. And this is the reason why such a little mole seemed like a mountain.
"We already know the meaning of the poem, but what about its connection with unleashing the scepter?" Maria asked.
"Yes, that is the most important thing, we need to find this out, as well. "Horus answered back.
Brenda burst into sudden laughter, and all eyes whirled at her, as she grinned and asked. "Who remembered how you felt when you behold this mountain as you walked closer?"
"The threatening face on the rock." Bobby let out.
"Yes, I feel the rock is warning us to get back from its territory, or get swallowed." Dija let out.
"Each of the broken scepters will be inserted into the eyes, nose, and mouth of the rock," Brenda explained.
"That explained everything!" One of the twins exclaimed.
"We need a longer rope that will be enough to reach the place where the face is situated on the rock." Bobby let out.
"My clan can help with the electric ropes, fixed with our armor. But I will need to explain what we were about to do."
"Must you tell them the truth, just cook some cock and bull story." Augur smirked back.
"So sorry, but I can't do that. Why should I betray them when they trusted me with their lives?"
"Damn predictable!" Augur muttered back with a sneered.
The aliens were on the way up!" The commander-general of the jihadists jumped out of the hole, stunned at the sight of the large numbers of aliens on the rock, and quickly raised his bow and arrow to fire.
"Stop and don't shoot at them," Brenda screamed from far.
"What?"
"They are with us," Maria answered back.
"Please explain."
"We have no time to," Brenda answered back.
"Horus has been able to convince them, and now, they will be fighting along with us." Maria quickly summarizes to satisfy the curious man.
"Oh, now we have a chance. Yaris has ordered for thousands of aliens, and they are slaughtering my men, on their way up."
"Let's unleash the scepter before he arrived," Dija announced, with a face filled with anxiety.
"Let me consult with them and I will get back to you in a few minutes." Horus let out, then walked off the area of the discussions, and towards the anxious-looking Hoorays who gaped at him.
