The pot calling the kettle black

"Am glad to finally meet the two of you," Geisha announced as his holographic image appeared inside the spaceship piloted by Horus.
"The pleasure is ours as well," Horus replied.
Geisha's hologram image swirled towards Zuri and he said. "Comrade Zuri, it's been a while.
" I agreed, sir," Zuri replied.
"And when did our close neighbor arrive on earth?" Geisha inquired from Apollon777 who sat beside a strange-looking female human.
"I just arrived a while ago," Apollon777 replied.
"Unfortunately I have not yet met any of your clan on earth," Geisha announced with a phony smile.
"I came all by myself," Apollon777 replied.
"Alone?" Geisha asked with an astonishing stare. "You are either brave or stupid to have taken that decision." He said after some seconds of total silence.
Apollon777 grinned back. "You are not far from the truth." He replied.
Geisha bobbed his head then glared at the woman with a formidable look and he immediately knew she must be important among her pair.
"You are beautiful," Geisha remarked at Brenda. "May I know your name?" He inquired after.
"Thanks for the compliment, and yes, my name is Brenda." The lady replied.
Geisha nodded his head, then swirled towards Zuri and cried out. "I admire your bravery and wisdom and agreed my early decisions of death were rash and uncalled for. "
"Unfortunately sir, it's already too late for regret," Zuri replied.
"Yes, I agreed," Geisha replied back and quickly added. "But not too late for retribution."
Horus looked at the moving image before him and said nothing.
"I have renounced my judgment as I can see your failure are not your fault alone but mine. I have been belittling humans and never imagined they are this strong." Geisha resumed.
Swiveled toward Horus at the cockpit and announced. "I respect your smartness and insight, you are one of a kind."
"Thank you," Horus replied with a beaming smile, as a result of the generous enthusiasm.
"I want you to destroy the scepter now and resumed your position back," Geisha announced.
"And remember the death penalty had been canceled." He added after.
Then face the humans on the seat and declared. "We will leave your earth when we are done with our reorientation and not before."
Horus waited for Zuri to reply to their superior offer, but the huge Hooray stood transfixed for some minute.
"Why have some when we can have it all?"
Horus murmured in silence. Supporting humans means only two things; failure of their mission and the death of him along with the rest of his clan on earth.
This would have been acceptable if his judgment of death remain valid, otherwise, he sees no reason why he should choose humans over his clan.
This and many more thoughts race through Horus's mind, but he patiently waits for Zuri to respond.
"My little time with humans has opened my eyes to our imperfection as well," Zuri replied after more minutes of total silence.
"We are the pot calling the kettle black and have judged humans without giving them a fair chance of defense."
"I can see you are either bewitched or brainwashed" Geisha yelled back.
"Did you think you alone can make a change to our campaign?"
"I begged you to restore all human inventions and call a meeting with them to resolve the conflict around a table," Zuri begged.
"That will be done at the right time, warrior, please remember your duty and obeyed my instructions now," Geisha yelled back.
"Disconnect the call," Zuri shouted at Horus.
"Yes, sir," Horus replied, pressed a button and Geisha's holographic image vanished.
"Where are we?" Brenda inquired from Zuri and Horus.
"We moved on." Zuri declared.
The war between the scepter gang, Big Tiger's men, and the men in military uniform raged on.
The scepter gang was caught in-between, but the men, inspired by the twin's prowess and the zombies with them fought on.
Several hours later, only a few men were seen in the battleground, racing with arms in arm against their fellow humans and the zombies.
Akira was seen in the middle of two men in uniform.
One slashed his sword at her, she stooped and stepped back to escape the thrust, then somersaulted backward twice in the air as her second opponent jabbed his sword in her face.
When she landed, one man throw a dagger at her, but Akira shoot her hand forward and the dagger stopped in the mid-air, then hurled back and stuck in its owner's throat.
One fat man with a sledgehammer loomed at Kira and struck his weapon to crush her head.
Kira saw the weapon coming, she stepped back and front kicked the man's right hand, then jumped up and hopped on his shoulder, touched his forehead, and swiftly rolled down on the ground.
The man shake violently for some seconds, then whacked his weapon at his closet comrades.
One zombie jerked One eye from the ground and smacked him on the tarred pavement. Then leaped to pin him down with his knee.
One eye tried to push the zombie of his body, but he held tight and removed a dagger from his pocket then aimed it at One-eye's left breast.
Big Tiger raced closer and whacked the zombie's head with a sledgehammer in his hand and instantly jerked One-eye out of his domineering weight.
"Thank you, pal." One eye said after some moments of deep breathing and walked off.
"Look out!" Big Tiger cried out, as, at that instant, a big man with a sledgehammer leaped at One-eye's back and swung his weapon forward.
One eye tried to dive off the incoming thrust, but someone holds his leg, he looked down and smirked as the headless zombie that Big Tiger just whacked a sledgehammer wrapped his arms around him, and instantly kicked the hand off his body, then looked up and froze as the big sledgehammer loomed at his face.
When the impact landed on One-eye's face, he felt neither pain nor anguish, except a deadly sound of crushing bones, and died before reaching the ground.
"Oh no." Big Tiger screamed and lunged at his comrade killer, he bend to escape the hedge of the hammer, leaped forward, then swirl around and cut the right arm off.
"The man looked stunned, dived forward, and instantly lunged his weapon with the other hand at his opponent.
Big Tiger bobbed the second thrust, he jumped up and kicked the man's arm to deflect the thrust, and dropped on his two knees, then severe the right leg off.
The man wobble for a while as he tried to walk with a leg. He lost his balance and fell with a loud sound.
Big Tiger leaped close to the falling zombie and cut the head off his shoulder. Then the other arm as the zombie lunged it forward in search of his attacker.
"Let's retreat now." Big Tiger cried out to the remaining men on the battleground.
The men in military uniform attacked the scepter gang and refused them passage through the night, until the following early morning. But as the number of his men decrease while the zombies fighting for the opposition gang increased, the gang leader ordered his men to retreat and allowed them to pass.
"They will be meeting our sister gang and we will team up against them." Their leader announced when some of the men murmured at such a cowardly decision.
When the scepter gang saw their opposition gang racing out of the way, Kira instantly called out for Augur to disperse people to look out for any traps ahead and the rest of the gang marched forward and passed into Oyo state, but they were soon followed by the retreating men in uniform, and then Big Tiger and his gang.
The inhabitants of Guara town had buried all the dead bodies in their town on their farmland, to serve as manure, then planted corns, rice, potatoes, yams, and cocoyam while fruits and vegetables were planted all over the town.
"Why waste the dead?" The king inquired from some zealots who begged to bury their dead in their graveyard.
"Let's use the dead to feed the living." He concluded and dismissed them with a wave of the hand.
As the numbers of the twin's immortal warriors grow, so also everything that was planted by the inhabitants of Guara, who now pray for rain to water their plants.
As the day broke, the morning breeze soon became violent and turned to wind, then into a whirlwind.
All the inhabitants jumped up with jubilations and instantly put their buckets and reservoir where water from the sky will fall into it.
Then the rain came abruptly and the sounds of it as it dropped on the roofing sheet brought instant delight to all the listeners, but it lasted for five minutes.
The rain that started suddenly also stopped abruptly and the sky became clearer as the sun peeped from its abode.
"Not today again." One unsatisfied dweller cried out in anger, listened for a while for any reply, and grunted louder when the breeze removed the cap on his head and hung it on a tree beside him.
