Urasi turned and pointed at Ogbuagu's son."Your next" he said and walked towards him.He bent and untied him from the pole he was tied to.Urasi was expecting resistance from the man,but was surprised to see him comport himself and head for the exit peacefully."Hey!" Urasi called out "my men will escort you..."

Nduka had had little or no sleep as he was busy perfecting his plan.If everything went according to his plan,then they would out of slavery before even entering into it.
Re: Ezeudo (A Story Of War And Peace) by Demurkelly: 11:06pm On Nov 18, 2018
Immediately day broke,Nduka cleaned up and started for Agu's house.His wife had probably heard him as she walked out and inquired "Where are you headed this early my husband?"."Am going to see Agu." he replied still walking away."Please extend my greetings too" his wife called out to his retreating back.Agu's opinion really mattered to Nduka before he went ahead with his plan.Besides he had been a warrior and strategist during his youth.The great Agu who had went to....

...hunt the leopard that had been ravaging Ugwumba for months alone.He had returned four market days later bearing a fatal wound and the leopard on his shoulder.The great Agu that had single handedly attacked and killed an entire band of bandits after they had raided the village of Umuichi and had met him on his way to his farm.If he was hale and hearty he could even help in his plan.But thanks to Ikemba....as soon as he Remembered the name Ikemba his train of thought derailed.

After unsuccesfully trying to gather his thoughts,he opted to whistle instead.He whistled all the way to Agu's house and met his wife."Nna anyi your welcome" she greeted.Nduka smiled in response and asked "Is Agu awake?".She replied in the affirmative and Nduka entered Agu's hut.

Nduka was taken aback as he saw the sight infront of him.Agu lay sprawled on his mat like a dead goat.His face was as colorful as the rain spirit (rainbow) and he was bandaged like his body was torn apart.Nduka forgot himself for a moment as he gaped."You'd better close your mouth before it catches a fly" Agu said sitting up.Nduka came to his senses and sat down."My friend..." he said quite short of words.
"You know it takes more than a mass beating to kill me"

Nduka shook his head as slapped Agu on the back who not suprisingly winced in pain.
"I see you're still in pains.."
"Thats what makes me human" Agu retorted as they laughed.
"So what brings you to my house this early?"
"You mean i cant come and visit you?"
"No, i mean you rarely go visiting this early.And besides our people say that the frog does not run in the afternoon for no reason"
"Well you're quite right...." he was saying when he was cut short by Agu who called for his wife.

"Go get some kola and wine" Agu told his wife when she came.She courtsied and left.
"It's quite early for me to start drinking..."
"You were saying?"Agu said waving his hand to cut him short.Nduka shrugged and continued "Well i was thinking,about our men being held captive by Ikemba when a thought crossed my mind.All our warriors went on that expedition and they were all captured.Now i am thinking...." he paused as Agu's wife entered the hut and dropped the palm wine and kola.

Re: Ezeudo (A Story Of War And Peace) by Demurkelly: 3:58pm On Nov 21, 2018
She poured some wine into a drinking gourd and handed it over to Nduka as she left the hut.Nduka sipped some wine and nodded "Very sweet..."
"So..?" Agu chimed in
"Yes..." Nduka cleared his throat and resumed "I thought up a plan to rescue our men.Now Ikemba has left a small contingent of his men here.Now the men are very effective as our warriors are not around.But against our warriors? They dont have a chance.Now i am thinking we should send one of our teen warriors to infiltrate...."

Re: Ezeudo (A Story Of War And Peace) by Demurkelly: 4:12pm On Nov 21, 2018
"...Umuichi,find wherever our men are being held and release them.Now the men can come back here and liberate us." Nduka concluded smiling like he had just discovered how to prepare roasted yam.Agu in turn creased up his brow in hought."Ehm...how will whoever is to go leave Ugwumba without being caught?" Agu asked confused.Nduka sipped his palmwine and smiled; "Ukaji will give him passage..."

Ikemba was looking around Ezeka's hut,looking for souvenir's when he heard Urasi's voice.

He walked outside and saw a man standing between two of his men.Urasi stepped forward and whisperred in his ears.He smiled and nodded as he stepped forward. "I just found out you are Ogbuagu's son and heir to the throne of Ugwumba.So tell me boy,what is your name?"
The man looked straight into Ikemba's eye and held his gaze.A war of stares broke between both of them as they glared at each other.Ikemba's eye started to get watery and he gave a small nod.Urasi walked up to the man and..

...hit him across the face and he keeled over.Ikemba rubbed his palms and walked up to the man."Tell me your name boy or i kill you right now".The man looked up at Ikemba,with bloodshot eyes and grinned - a devilish and toothless grin- saying ; "I will tell you my name,because you shall tremble whenever you hear of it.I shall tell you my name,because you shall have sleepless nights over it.I shall tell you my name because it will be the last name you hear before dieing.My name is Ezeudo"

"You cannot possibly get Ukaji's help.He's a mole for Ikemba" Agu almost shouted.Nduka smiled an replied, "Ukaji might be a coward,but he'd never betray his brothers.I believe he has acted the way he has to save his neck".
"Trust me, Ukaji is an 'ambitious' coward that can sell our clan if given a chance"
"He can never do such Agu. He's just out to save his neck".
"Nduka! Do not involve Ukaji in your plan.You will pay dearly if you do so"
Nduka stood up and placed a hand...

...on Agu's shoulder saying, "You fret over little things my friend"
"That's what has made me live up till now" Agu grumbled.Nduka smiled,swigged some wine from the drinking gourd and left for Ukaji's place
........
For the first time in Ikemba's life,he felt like he had been cursed.Never in all his 'fun-filled' life had he seen such hatred potrayed towards him.The young man or Ezeudo in this case had promised to be his bane.He would have casted it aside as he was used to threats.

But something felt different this time around.'Should i kill him?' he asked himself.'No,the white skinned men would pay alot for him as he was still young and strong'.He smiled at his conclusion.He would be the first he would sell

Ezeudo sat in the barn,with the other men.His hands like that of the others was tied behind him.The other men called out insults across themselves but he faced the ground thinking.He was devicing a way to escape from captivity with his men before...

...Ikemba could sell them as slaves.He was mulling over different plans when he heard his name a mile away.He looked up instantly and saw all eyes were on him, "What?" he growled.
"Ezeka claims that he had allowed Ezenna to sleep in his house"
"....And killed him afterwards,right?".Ezeka shook his head as he replied, "Are you this dumb? Or do you potray yourself as one?? Can you eat yam with some one at night and kill him in the morning?"
