There were rumors about the Vandorain people and the god that they worshipped.
The Highlanders spoke of them. There were stories from those that participated in the war effort, going through the village and they told of the god that the Vandorains believed in giving her people eyes behind their heads.
No matter what it was, no matter the sneak attack, the Vandorain soldiers always saw it coming.
Mani had never believed nor had to believe such rumours.
At least not until this very moment.
The squad leader and his men turned to Mani. They chuckled a bit.
Mani was not aware but what had just happened was the soldiers using the Bear mother's blessing of seeing a few seconds into the future.
This blessing could be activated like a skill, but for the most part, it activated on its own whenever the life of the individual was threatened.
Even before Mani could register what was happening, the soldiers had already rushed fast at him, activating their totems and blasting him with attacks.
The first totem that reached him was that of a huge monkey.
*Boom!*
A upper cut from the center of his chest up.
Before he even landed, a crocodile used it's tail to SMACK him into one of the village houses.
A jet of blood shot out of his mouth.
"MANI!!!" Neely screamed as she rushed out of her hiding spot in the ground.
The soldiers clearly saw where she had popped out from.
"There they are!" One of them pointed and immediately, he rose in the air and hammered the ground with his gorilla fist.
Cracks formed on the ground leading to the hole.
The cracks broke threw revealing people under.
"The useless fucks are underground!" Another one commented as two others rushed with their own totems hammering different points in the ground.
Many of the Villages tried to run, but quick example was made with a few of them.
These people were weak.
Mani was even fortunate to be in the stone rank.
Those that considered themselves strong amongst these bunch were actually in the wood rank.
Most of the others were just normal human beings trying to survive in an obviously harsh and cruel world.
Unfortunately, they had met people with power that happened to be bored.
Such was life.
Those with power saw those any lesser as toys for their entertainment.
Neely ran to Mani.
"Mani! Mani!!" She called to him again and again, trying to shake him awake.
Mani on the other hand saw everything in pairs.
Those two hits had made their mark and the jolt of pain to his head after he fell made seeing and understanding what was happening around him very difficult.
Fortunately, a different kind of pain kicked in, pushing his consciousness from confusion slowly to clarity.
As Neely shook him awake by his shirt, he could see by the side as the Soldiers rushed to gather his village members.
Men, women and children, they were all rounded up.
Any that resisted were used as an example.
Killing them was the act of discipline the others were to learn from.
And then Mani heard it clearly.
"Gather up all the women!"
This order had come from the squad leader.
One child screaming for his mother was decapitated on the spot for not letting her go.
His blood like spilled milk splashed on his mother as the head tumbled midair before crashing on the ground.
It bounced a bit before rolling around on the ground,and then coming to a stop with the face looking at the crying-kicking mother.
Another, was a man trying to hide his wife.
He wrapped his hands around her, not wanting to let her go.
However his arms were chopped like vegetables, and his wife peeled from them.
Some of the blood splashed on Mani's face, prompting him to get up.
It was at this point that he realized what he had just caused.
But it was too late.
One of the men came and pulked Neely from him.
*ROAR!!!*
There was a loud roar to the sky and the people suddenly kept quiet.
Surprisingly, it was from the Squad leader's mount.
Still on his mount, he advanced forward.
"So I am going to be straight forward with you maggots. Your screaming for 'mummy' is really getting on my nerves.
"So why don't we do it like this," he smiled a sly smile, "our mounts finishing fucking your women and we let them go."
Surprisingly, as he talked, one of his soldiers unable to hold back grabbed one of the women, he ripped apart her clothes like it was paper.
As her clothing tore to reveal the lush skin and blossom underneath, he smiled cheerfully.
She tried to struggle but a few slaps and punches to her face set her in place.
She bleed from her mouth, but the soldier could care less.
He was being led by his horniness. He grabbed her by her jaw and dug in a forceful kiss regardless of the blood.
By the time he let go, some of her blood had stained his face.
However, he licked it in obvious enjoyment.
He could not hold back any longer, losing his pants, he separated her legs.
In there was the goal of his straining erection.
Without a moment to waste, he rammed into her.
A sparp painful moan escaped her mouth.
She was obviously weak from the beating he had given her, but her hands still tried to hammer at his chest.
Yet again, he gave another slap.
As he forced himself on her.
The squad leader and the other members watched this and burst into echoes of laughter that resounded on the surrounding mountains.
Barbara and Abel were still in their hiding spot watching.
Abel turned to her, "Things are looking bad. should I interfere now?"
Surprisingly, Barbara shook her head.
"Not yet! Trust me, when you see it, you will know."
Abel took a look at this woman. He was absolutely speechless...
