Chapter 38 - Fall of Amazon

Zurkun stood still, fazed about what had happened she gaze towards were the queen had sat. The queen held a look of fear.

No one has ever match the strongest Amazon in battle as she was the first to ever live.

Zurkun walked over to the remains of the great Amazon,kicking what was left of her as she yelled towards the crowd.

Arghh!!

The crowd roared along with Zurkun as they began echoing her name continuously.

What shall we do sooth sayer the queen asked as she was running out of patience, you never predicted there will be a short coming in my years of rule said the queen angrily to the sooth sayer.

There won't your highness the suit sayer spoke, smirking, she's to be thrown into the dungeons she'd disobeyed one of the rules of the tournament which is the use of sword.

The queen stared back towards her daughter, she had never cared about any of them for a long time ago. But this one, she was different from any she'd ever hard.

she defeated the first Amazon to ever live in battle in a simple strike without having any contact with the latter. It was hard for the queen to decidewhat emotion to feel.

The queen then signaled to the announcer, he then cleared his throat releasing the words of how Zurkun had disobeyed the rule and how she will be executed!

Immediately Amazon soldiers rushed into the fields as they grabbed hold of Zurkun. At first thought Zurkun thought to destroy them all with Edeth's white blazing sword.

But a voice coming from the sword suddenly stopped her.

No! The sword spoke as the Amazon soldiers dragged her, is that you Edeth? Zurkun asked.

The voice then casually responded, Zurkun when the time comes you shall know. You have promised that just as I will favored you, you will favor me. I wouldn't fail you Edeth said Zurkun.

Good bye Zurkun, remember use the sword only for good and not for evil.

After Edeth said her last sentence the shimmering white light of the blazing sword dimmed.

Zurkun stared at the sword as it became plain white, without throbbing energy. it was at that moment she knew something had happened to Edeth and why it was going to be her responsibility to help her.

They dragged her into the dungeons, throwing her into one of the cells and locking her up after wards. Fortunately for Zurkun her sword was still with her, she paced around the prison cells thinking of the next step to take.

When there was a sudden knock on the cage doors, Zurkun turned as she stared back at what seemed to be the figure of the queen!

Your highness Zurkun said humbly falling on her knees.

The queen majestically spoke who helped you,

Zurkun innocently answered she's left already, the queen immediately ordered the general to commence a search across the realm and for everyone and everything to stay indoors.

The queen turned leaving wait, Zurkun spoke still on her knees, Mother, said Zurkun it doesn't have to end this way. You have killed endless of your daughters it gives you joy yet it pains you.

"Please do let this cup pass away" you know nothing child, is that so?

Zurkun asked as she raged. If the Amazon realm will fall today by my hand I will let it.

Or what do you think stops me from killing you now mother?

Is it this prison bars or my love for you?

Make your decision now queen of Amazon lt me live and remain in this cell and will leave this world for you.

Or take the next step and see your head fall from your neck.

The queen then spoke to one of her commanders, treat her as a princess and make the dungeon more comfortable, the queen then left the scene.

The room was exquisite fit for that of a ruler, a teenage girl laid on one of the beds that was placed in the beautiful room root like vains encompassed all over her skin as she hummed a song to herself. She awoke as she had heard a whisper, she stood walking towards a long box placed on the emerald inbuilt table. She opened the box inside was her Zig zag swords which were as pale as they've always been.

She walked towards the prison bars where she thought she heard the voice come from on getting close to the prison bars, she was stopped by a golden chain strapped to the ground and tied to her hand.

The teenage girl was Zurkun, she looked closer towards her other friend it was the friend she had made just two days ago.

Why are you calling me? Zurkun asked.

Do not you hear it? her friend said.

Here what? Zurkun replied asking.

War!

Zurkun went back to her bed as she said don't think there's a chance for you to escape, have tried this for many others to be executed before and I only led them closer to their graves.

Zurkun was about to lay on her bed back when she heard a loud clank. She faced towards the back and saw a number of Amazons standing outside of her cell including the friend she had just made.

They all looked appalled as one of them spoke, soo the storys are true the great princess lives, what do you mean Zurkun asked absolutely confused. Am in a prison cell what so great about that.

The Amazons then spoke, After you were imprisoned the queen promised to never kill any of her children ever again and she declared that you were dead.

Your legends have been ignited in walls, your story crafted in books. A tale told every single night.

I do not believe this Zurkun said as she sat on her bed, her friend that was locked in the cell then spoke, well look at us Zurkun we are the new princesses. Zurkun was shocked as she stared at each and every of them.

And you came here to check if I live, yes Zurkun and to also free you, immediately the princess finished her statement Zaya had a powerful sound coming from above.

The dungeons began to shake it then collapsed.
