CHOLA EMPIRE
It was time for lunch. The long line of the awaiting slaves were numerous. seemed like they increased overnight.
The slaves got whipped as they scoop the little tasteless food into their plates.
Alessia hid herself in the garden under a mango tree. She had her head on her knee,she could hear the rumbling sound of her stomach and the ache it caused.
She was waiting for night fall so she could steal food from the kitchen.
She felt a presence sat down beside her.
“Hi Alessia” Ampah said.
“My prince” She raised her head and bowed it.
“I brought food for you” He said bringing out a food flask he hid inside his robe.
“Thank you” She gushed, opening the food and began eating.

The three friends arrived same time and they headed inside. They made orders and sat to discuss.
Adjo had noting to order he only sat and watched them..
“Adjo won’t you order something” Fransisco said.
“No thanks I don’t eat in public” He replied plugging a ear piece into his left ear.
“Just water” Fenuku persuaded him but he disagreed.
“Cisco it happened again” Fenuku said and his friends looked at him confusedly.
“I’m serious. Ok here,just like other times. Whenever my dad beats me and gives me an injury, after speaking to Fransisco on the phone it disappears like I don’t know how to make you believe but what I’m saying is true” Fenuku defended himself.
“Hold on guys. Are you trying to say Fransisco possess some kind of magical powers, come on those are folk tales” Adjo said.
“I’m still confused. You said it happened other times and you didn’t inform me why then did you talk about this one?” Francisco asked.
“This one felt so real,other ones I doubted it that it might be cogitation that’s why I’ve been keeping away from you”
“This sounds like a folktale so I’m not gonna believe it” Adjo said in conclusion.
There was a loud scream coming from outside. People ran helter skelter saving thier lives.
“What’s happening?” Adjo jumped out of his seat.
“People are running, what’s after them” Francisco asked.
“The supernatural being is here to seek blood, everyone must hide” A man who ran behind them said.
“OMG this can’t be,I don’t want to die!!” Adjo cried fearfully clinging to the clothes of Fenuku.
“Let me be you little chicken” Fenuku mocked.
“Francisco there it is, it’s real floating on the air” Fenuku pointed at Corbin who was laughing loudly scaring the hell out of the masses.
The police had arrived but only videos could be taken cause they couldn’t handle someone with such magical powers.
“I’m going out” Fransisco said leaving his friends behind.
“Cisco stop you’re gonna die” Fenuku warned him.
“Francisco please come back,I want to go to my mummy” Adjo cried loudly and Fenuku slapped his head.
“Let me out” Francisco said to the securities,the doors was already locked but one could still see cause it was transparent.
“Young man you can’t go out there, it’s too…” The man words were interrupted when Fransisco lifted him up and flung him like a wood.
People inside were wowed.
Other securities tried to stop him but they fell down before they could reach him.
Francisco opened the door and stood face to face with Corbin.
