Chapter 3

  “THE OUTCAST”

  The chapter kicks off at the zulu villege , the zulu tribe sangoma( traditional healer) is having a coversation with the zulu chief GABON .

  Sangoma abusi : my king, have you concluded on how you will deal with the boy yet(referring to swakiii)

  GABON: The boy is protected by ZOKHU , killing him wont be that easy, and i dont see us doing that without starting a war.

  Sangoma abusi : my king.... if the boy is not eliminated now ......

  GABON: tell me abusi,... if i decide not to kill the boy.....do we win?

  Sangoma abusi: A LOT OF WORRIORS WILL PERISH MY LORD!!!!!!!!!

  GABON: u shall answer what i have asked you!

  Sangoma abusi: my king...... um afraid i cannot see beyond the bloodbath of the war.

  GABON: well in that case, if i somehow decide not to kill the boy , i ll just kill all their men and win the war.

  Back at the tshonga village , swakii and taka are at the health center to visit khathu. He is recovering well after the swati tribe incident but he wasnt happy to see swakii and taka.

  Swakii: you are awfully angry for someone who is recovering well

  Khathu: recovering ? You call this recovering?(with his cut arm up) My hand was cut off!! iam a half warrior now !!! You should have listened when i told you to stay behind!!

  Taka: khathu......

  Khathu: he s the reason i lost my hand...... i d be careful walking around with him...now know why they say you are a curse!

  Taka: khathu i know your angry right now but u need to calm down....

  Swakii: its oukay taka, he s right, if i didnt chase that pig to the swatii territory his arm would still be attached . Excuse me( as he left)

  Taka: swakii.....

  With him feeling the guilt and blaming himself for everything that happened , he went into the forest to be alone , swakii was too deep in his thoughts he didnt even realize how deep into the forest he was.

  Gabon appeared

  Swakii: huuuh.... youuu! What are you doing here?

  Gabon: very careless for ur chief to leave you lacking like this , i was coming to ur village to see if i can kill you but i guess i dont have to anymore , orenge boyyy(referring to her light skin colour).

  Swaki: kill me? But why?

  “Because you life is a risk to our kind! You breathing is a gamble for this nation . Your death will save everyone from a very bloody fate. “said a blood thirsty voice behind gabon. It was the evil swati king

  Gabon: tssh! Get behind me boyy

  Swakii: get behind you?? You just told me u were coming to kill me!

  Gabon: geeeet behind me or diee!

  Swati chief: ohhh stay calm gabon.... if i wanted him gone he d be dead now.... i dont need to kill him now.... i still need to kill you and your allied tribes first .

  Gabon : what exactly did you do to yourself zitha!!! What are you ?

  Swatii chief(zitha): i made a deal with the devil and he made me a god!!
