CAMP MATRIX.
Mistress Zara and Jasmine were still taking a walk while discussing.
"How wise do you think Matrix could be?" Zara asked Jasmine who gazed at the garden once again.
"Well, he is very wise but this will not keep him away from the war he is running for" 
"You know the other Bosses will come after him if it seems that he is having a speeding progress here," Jasmine responded.
"Most especially the likes of CX, must surely will" she added.
While Zara gazed at the bird peeping on the apple tree in the garden and ignored it as she halts and stares at Jasmine.
"Please could you help me locate this CX, I know he is at DCD surrounding himself with warriors so I can't go there alone, I want you and Scar beside me" Zara requested as Jasmine shrugs her shoulder.
"Why so desperate to find CX?" Jasmine asked.
"He is making a move on my son, I have to stop him before it's too late" Zara replied.
"David?" Jasmine asked with a contempt facial expression and Zara nodded.
"Then why bother about that?" Jasmine asked as Zara stares at her confusedly.
"And... what's that supposed to mean?" Zara asked but Jasmine quickly brought in another topic.
"Zara we have a business deal to attend and I believe it's better we focus on that"
 "And if you are serious about finding CX then we can talk about it later," Jasmine said and then two warriors rides in with their horses.
They are Jasmine's armies so when they approached with their horses they jumped down from it and steps closer.
"Mistress, the prisoners needed to be fed, do I have to starve them more?" Warrior 1 asked as Jasmine and Zara gazed at each other.
"Thanks, both of you have done well for bringing the horses, now you can go back to the fort" Jasmine ordered and approached one of the horses and climbed it as she looks at Zara.
"Zara ride with me," Jasmine said but noticed the unsatisfied look on Zara's face and she knew that Zara must be wondering why they have to move by horse instead of car.
"Trust me, it is a very narrow road," Jasmine said and Zara stared at her warriors as they turned and began walking away.
"Get the prisoners fed! but you must be careful, none of them should escape!" Jasmine shouted at the warriors while they were walking away and they turned and gazed at her as she nodded at them.
"Go now and make sure that my fort is secured, be careful and be vigilant always" Jasmine orders as they bow.
"Ruger that Mistress" one of them responded as turned and walks away then Jasmine looks at Zara.
"Are you not ready to go yet?" Jasmine asked as Zara smirked.
"You should give me a minute let me talk to my escort" Zara requested as Jasmine watched her till she approached Scar.
She watched her discuss with Scar for a few minutes and returned.
Zara returned and climbed the other horse Let's go" she said as they rides into the narrow road that has forest posed on both sides of the way.
It is a very big forest which has so many birds chirping all over but there are still streetlights hung on some of the trees beside the road.
So there's no doubt that they are seeing their way clearly and making their move.
"Tell me, Zara how have you been all this while? you know it has been a while since we met because of your busy appointments"
"You are always busy attending one appointment to the other, and I'm jealous of that because I wanna be you," Jasmine said while Zara smiled.
"Huh... everybody wants to Be me and I don't want to be me but don't worry Jasmine, it is just one step ahead and you will surely acquire the level you wanted" Zara replied as Jasmine gazes at her and start on a new topic as they rides their horses continuously.
"Zara, could you tell me about the boy?" Jasmine asked as Zara gaze at her because she don't really know who she's referring to.
"Which boy?" Zara asked.
"The boy David" Jasmine replied as Zara concentrates on her way as she wouldn't want to talk about that but since Jasmine has already brought up the issue, she has to.
"David? you mean my son? he's fine growing healthy every single hour, just being stubborn though" Zara replied while Jasmine halted her horse and Zara stopped as well.
"Zara, don't you think the time has reached for you to sacrifice him? he is growing and he has ear why people has mouth, he could become a threat to you in the future," Jasmine said as Zara sighed.
"I know, I know what I must do, I will surely sacrifice him but not now" Zara responded as Jasmine shrugged her shoulder and they continues with their journey.

Meanwhile, Favour was still lying like a lifeless body on the car, though her eyes were opened but she couldn't get up as she was badly wounded.
She was relaxing on the car waiting for her to gain a little strength before she can attempt to get up.
Just in a car arrives immediately and halted with force making a screeching sound as Jade ran out of the car.
"Oh my gosh... Favour you are wounded? what happened?" Jade asked as she scans around and slowly approached Favour who was struggling to talk.
"That, That-That bastard betrayed me, we planned together to sacrifice David at the dark hall but he betrayed me" Favour muttered as Jade gazes at her in shock.
Jade was surprisingly staring at her because according to her statement, she could have betrayed her mum if she wasn't betrayed.
"Alright come on, we have to go now," Jade said and carried her down from the car and put her in the front left seat of her car and then she take on the driver's seat and leads the drive.
"Favour, don't worry you will be fine" Jade promised and quickly reversed the car heading straight home.
"Jade, I thought Mum warned you not to step out of the sanctuary? you disobeyed her and betrayed our family!" Favour managed to utter despite the pain she's bearing.
"But guess if you could have survived if I didn't come here to save you! And talking about betraying?"
"According to your recent statement, you could have betrayed Mum yourself!"
"But I wasn't betraying her I was only trying to save us all, I was trying to save our life," Jade said as she was still much concentrated on her driving.
"I mean, just take a look, this is just the beginning and you are already wounded? trust me this is not even up to half of the threat we are to face now"
"We don't have David but he was kidnapped in our name... did you understand what I am trying to avoid now?"
"Mother is leading us to our death! she has already led us to it, we just have to be careful from now on..." Jade concluded and then their car drove over the bridge and she was directly heading home.

FOREST WAY.
This place was circled with trees, it looks like there are some things this exact spot is used for because it was so organized.
Birds were chirping all over the forest and then Mistress Amelia and Zack were standing on the central spot.
Then Zara and Jasmine arrive with their horses as Zara jumped down from her horse and approached Amelia while Jasmine was watching from behind just like Zack was Watching as well.
When Zara approached her Jasmine gives an eye sign to Amelia as Zara was turning her back on her so she didn't notice what was going on actually.
"Hi mistress," Zara said when she approached.
"Hi, Mistress Zara" Amelia responded as Zara brings her hand forward and they shook each other.
"So... what's this treasure that you want to trade with me?" Zara asked and then Amelia handed over the briefcase in her hand to Zara.
"Inside that briefcase is a dagger what 50k karat gold designed with diamonds, it has several abilities that gives the wielder an upper hand in combat"
"It can blind the eyes of the opponent, and strong enough to pierce through any metal, it's almost indestructible," Amelia said as Zara stared at the briefcase and smiled as she gazed at Amelia once again.
"Why do you have to trade a dagger with me when you should know that I don't need it? I don't fight with daggers" Zara said as Amelia brings the briefcase down since Zara is not accepting it.
"I know you won't use it but you are an entrepreneur, aren't you? why not sell it to people that need it and still make your profit?"
"But it's fine though, since you don't need it, I should be going," Amelia said as she turns to walk away.
"Hold it, how much are you willing to sell?" Zara asked as Amelia turned.
"90kÇ, silver coins not allowed," Amelia said as Zara stares at the briefcase and then turned and stared at Jasmine but she wasn't ready to interfere.
Ç is the Darklands currency pronounced as Cyphy, the currency is two types which are gold and silver coins and you have to be so rich before you can make up to 1Ç gold coin.
"Hmm, that's a lot of profit you are going to make in that, but don't worry I will pay, let me..." Zara said as she stretches her hand forward and Amelia handed over the briefcase to her.
She opened it and saw The gold dagger glittering so bright and she closed it again.
Then she removed her phone from her pocket and placed a call and after discussing it with the person she hung up the call.
"I don't owe people, and I don't promise people, I pay them what they deserve, so thank you for this business"
"And I assure you that your money is waiting for you at home, you just have to be faster so it wouldn't be lost," Zara said and they shook each other one last time.
"It's an honor to trade with you," Amelia said while Zara returns to her horse.
Then Amelia and Jasmine gave themselves one last eye sign before Amelia walked away with Zack.
"That's a beautiful dagger, isn't it?" Jasmine asked Zara.
"A dagger that will take countless lives, what's the need of it being beautiful when blood will be flowing over it steadily" Zara responded and climbed her horse.
Then they began walking home and just in an arrow flew out of the bush and came after Zara but she dodged it and the dagger hits Jasmine on her stomach.
"Ugh!!" Jasmine screamed as she fell down from her horse and then so many men with swords in their hands began jumping out of the forest and surrounded them.
