THE GIANT AMONG THE DWARFS

Horus, accompanied by the lady, soon reached the village situated some miles off the forest.
The lady walked to the entrance of a big and fenced duplex, unlock the door, and sauntered inside.
The interior of the house was well tiles and the elegant atmosphere befits a high-class profile.
"Is this your home?" Horus asked the fair lady, who by now was seen dressed in the clothing that now looked like rags on her body, as a result of her previous ordeal.
"Yes." The lady replied. "My father had assumed the position of our village leader since the government no longer functions.
Two guards, dressed in blue uniforms over brown shorts were seen sitting on a plastic chair and glaring at the alien with fright.
"Is my father inside?" Risha asked as the pair get close to the fidgeting guards.
"Yes... Yes, He is inside relaxing." One among the guard replied.
"Call him out for me." Risha barked at the two guards, and they instantly hopped out of their seats, collided with each other, fell, and instantly rise and raced out of sight.
"Please be at ease." Risha let out.
She hold Horus's hand, smiled as the alien flinched when she touched him, and dragged him to one of the chairs just vacated by the guards.
"Thank you, Horus muttered.
At that moment, a tall and well-muscled man stepped out of the house and sauntered close to them.
The smiling on his face quickly changes to anger at the sight of his daughter's thorn clothing.
" Did he do this to you?" The man yelled out at his daughter.
"On the contrary, he saved me from those who want to rape me," Risha replied.
The man held his daughter in a tight embrace, looked at the alien beside him, and thanked him profusely for his kindness.
"You save my daughter's life."
"Am doing my duty," Horus replied. "Though I was surprised humans still practice this abominable act."
"There will always be a black sheep among the flocks." The man replied. "Unfortunately, ninety percent of the world population are presently among the bad guys." He added after.
"I agree and am so sorry if our presence had complicated the matter, instead of helping out," Horus replied.
"Please don't be sorry, the world is on its way to self-annihilation and you only help to speed up the process." The man replied, shake the alien sitting in his front, and announced.
"Welcome to my humble abode, please feel free as long as you are here."
"Thank you for your warm hospitality," Horus replied.
"I will be here only for a night, and will be off before the cock crows tomorrow."
"We have more than enough time to discuss." The man replied.
He face her daughter snuggling on his shoulder and said. "Take your visitor to the best room to rest for a while."
"Thank you, daddy." Risha let out with happiness. Hugged her daddy and walked close to Horus.
"Please, follow me."
Risha's father was the district police officer before the knockout. When things became nastier, he had assumed the position of his community leader and had tried all within his power to protect the endangered humans under him. Unfortunately, his best is never enough.
Some hours earlier, Risha had asked for permission to stroll out for fresh air and he had obliged and warned her not to go out of reach.
"God save us all." The man muttered as he watched the tall alien that walked like a giant among the dwarfs.
"There they were, at last," Akira screamed out, jerked her horse, and galloped faster.
"Time to get our scepter back. " Kira replied.
The scepter gang instantly plunged into the midst of the awaiting men and alien, and a fight ensued.
Akira jumped off her moving horses and knocked down two men who galloped towards her.
She instantly removed her sword from her scabbard and thrust it at the men in her front.
"Argh!" Akira screamed, bobbed the blade of the sword of her opponent, backlash at the other thrust from the man at her back, then rolled off their midst.
A tall black man with a military uniform leaped at Akira, then slashed his weapon at her head.
Akira stepped left to evade the blade, she turned instantly and emerged at the back of her opponent, then slashed his neck and chopped his head off.
A man with a rod raced towards her from the back, and Akira thrust her sword backward, and it penetrate the chest of the man, who froze, then fell as Akira withdraw the weapon to counter-attack another thrust from a big man with a beard.
She dived off the man's second thrust, hopped, and cut the head off.
Kira thrust her sword and chopped the hand of a young man who leaped at her with a dagger.
She jumped up, spread her legs, then smacked it on the chest of two men who ambled in her front. Rolled on the nearest one as he fell to the ground, and thrust her dagger into his heart.
Dija was seen galloping into the midst of their opponent as she slashed, cut, and thrust with a sword and a dagger.
A man leaped at her from the ground and tried to shove her off the horse, but Dija swirled backward, then thrust her dagger and chopped the man's hands off as he plummeted into her.
Zuri and Big Tiger lead the team that attacked from the right side, and they plunged into the midst of the fighting arena.
Zuri sliced off the arms of a man that struck at him with a sword, he thrust the spear in his hand into the neck of the horse and it throw its reader off as it stumbled forward.
Another man hopped at Zuri and knocked him off the horse, and both instantly rise from the ground and plunged into each other.
The man struck first with his dagger, but Zuri stepped back, then hopped up and front kicked the man on his chest.
He jerked the man up, thrust his weapon into his chest, tossed him off, then whacked his weapon on the head of the next man who leaped at him.
Big Tiger fought off two men who circled him. He rolled towards the closer one, then jumped up, and whacked a sledgehammer on his head. The other man raced close, but Big Tiger quickly leaped out of the way of his thrust, jumped up, and sidekick the man on his knee, then thrust his dagger into his throat.
Suddenly the alien's spaceship was seen hovering closer.
"More aliens are coming," Kira screamed to her sister fighting beside her.
"Let them come and taste our blades," Akira replied, then hacked a man who attacked her into two with her sword.
"We have fewer men with us," Kira said.
"Let's turn them into our slaves like before," Kira replied.
"It will be done," Akira replied.
She dropped her sword, jerked two men that stood to fight her, smashed them together then touched their foreheads as they fell apart.
"Rise as my immoral warriors." She whispered aloud.
"There they were at last" Geisha announced at the sight of the warring team on the ground.
He instantly ordered the alien in the cockpit to mash the red button attached to the dashboard.
The pilot looked at Geisha for a moment with opened mouth. "Are we attacking them from the spaceship?" He asked amazed.
"Yes," Geisha replied. "Ain't slaughtering my Hoorays any longer.
"Yes sir." The alien replied. He shoot his hand towards the button, paused his movement, looked back at Geisha, back at the dashboard, then he mashed the button.
At that instant, an alarm was heard inside the spaceship, then the wings sectioned opened, and arrows with blazing fire plummeted downward and fell on the two conflicting gangs.
Zuri looked up, saw the arrows descending, and cried out immediately. "Look for cover to protect yourself." Then raced towards the bridge far off.
"Damn you, Geisha."
When Zuri reached the safety of the bridge, he brought out a gadget in his hand, then began to record the massacre that soon followed.
The weapon Geisha released can be compared to an electric arrow, and when it touched those on the ground, they shake violently like someone electrocuted, fell dead in a few seconds then turned to dust.
The Hoorays formally use this weapon against the Apollons but forbade the use of it against humans.
The reason for this prohibition may be due to the endangered situation of the planet earth, or because to them, humans are weakling, and the use of such advanced weapons against them is unnecessary.
Whatever the reason, Geisha had committed a war felony and will be drastically punished if the proof reached those at the top.
"This is no longer war but genocide." Zuri let out.
