The Black Shadow Soul Hunter-Chapter 15 - : The Asfan Castle

Three people walking in the horizon, sands and sands everywhere. Looks like the sea on sands. Some cactus trees, palm trees could be seen near. A hot, dry, dusty wind that blowing towards the caravan. The hot sun had no mercy to provide heat that was tormenting. The hot air was making even har for the animals to move forward. Outwards from a low air pressure cell over a desert, desiccating surrounding areas and withering plants which once had life .

Amina held the little boy, Jihan like his small brother in the caravan. No words are coming out of the little boy. Like he was mummy who has no life. The young little boy who loves to prank around was suddenly became silent with the loss of his mother. His silent breaking the heart even of the mighty desert.

Amina: softly spoke to Black Shadow, "Do you know here are we heading?"

Black Shadow replied at her, "We are going to find Hakim. I don't know where he is."

"So, how will we find him''?- Amina asked him.

"I have trick, Just have to find a well or some water source nearby, you will see what will happen."- Black Shadow replied as his eyebrows rose up.

After four to five hours of the journey, the found a well. Jihan began to feed the camel with his silence. The black shadow fetched some water. Then he placed the water in a small pot. In the pot he placed some shining stones. And over the top of the water he placed the jeweled knife-"Ame-no-nuhoko'' .The knife drowned in the water.

Amina smiled at The Black Shadow wondering what was he doing.

Then suddenly the water was lightened. The Jeweled knife begin to float and the stones were shining. The Knife's sharp edge pointed towards the north east direction. Amina look puzzled. There was a picture of a castle appeared in pot.

"Its Asfan Castle"- Jihan replied from behind.

"Once I went there with my father and mother. Then I don't remember exactly what happened.

I just remembered we came back here without my father."- Jihan said to Black Shadow.

After couple of days they came close to the place known as Asfan Castle. Its located in a small village named Asfan village.

"My goodness, this is a army fortified castle."-Amina reacted seeing the Asfan Castle..

"It just looks like a fortress built on the rocks, more to guard the area. How can Hakim live in that?" Amina said looking at the Black Shadow.

Black Shadow eyes sharpen as he said, "Don't worry Amina, we will find out. We need a plan."

***************************

The Plan:

Amina came close to the castle, the guards were very sharp.

"Stop, one more foot or we will shoot you." One of the guards in front said to Amina.

Amina dressed in her vails said, "Sir, we are passerby. Me and my child is looking for the nearest well could you be kind to come here and help."

Another guard saw her, came to the edge of the cliff and he was furious as he scolded Amina, "Go away, by counting to three or we will kill you."

Amina lowered her voice and she was bit shaky, she said- "Sir we are lost, me and my small brother are hungry. Could you be kind enough to help us sir!"

Both of the guards laughed, they had huge one nod- rifle like guns.

One of the guards said, "We can help you, all right."

Two guard came down running one held Amina tightly one of them again said, "We will help you, don't worry." the other one had a bitter face as he looked his mouth was watering seeing the small prey in front of a hunter.

He began to garb her with force, the he pulled his pants down, putting the gun down in the earth. Amina began to shout to leave her. She was Mo lustrated by the guards as they were looking to have sex with her. Among the guards one big fat guard with a mustache came down to see what was happening.

He asked furiously -"What's happening here? Have you all lost your minds! You all are trying to rape a girl?"

The other two guards stopped as they were quiet, they said nothing. They looked unhappy as their fun was interrupted.

The guard with a mustache said with a smirk," Don't worry boys. have fun with the girl, but the boy is mine. I will take him"

The fat guard holding the boy laughed furiously. The Black Shadow made no more delay. He took the pistol and the rifle in his hands. He fired those guns towards the guards, killing them in seconds.

Amina said while spiting on their face, "all me are the same, pigs, absolute pig.

Amina looked frustrated and holding Jihan. The Black Shadow run up towards the top of the castle. The Castle is fully made of stones, on the top of the castle he founds stairs curved down. The place down at below looked more as bunker, it's a storage of armory, ammo, maps, drawings, foods and water. There were lots of rifles, muskets, guns, pistols, swords and ammo.

Amina began to look at the maps and the drawings, while Jihan and the Black Shadow both were busy eating foods. They both looked hungry.

Amina found a mysterious drawing, it had a picture of Hakim. Behind the drawing there was a map directed towards. The Citadel of Ebril.

While eating foods Jihan heard a sound. Jihan signaled The Black Shadow towards the barrel of water. There was stone carved wall behind the walls nothing more, but Jihan said he has definitely heard some voice behind the walls.

"Let's check what really is behind these walls"- Amina asked after hearing the voices.

So, the Black shadow grabbed a big log and keep hitting the wall behind.

Black Shadow said, "I have a better idea. The wall is curved with stones so it's probably won't break... so we can use firepower."

Amina disagreed, she replied, "The stones will probably damage the whole wall along-side the whole room rather we must find carefully these drawings."

So, both the Black Shadow and Amina began inspecting the drawings carefully. After some time, Amina found a drawing pointing towards a stone in the wall. They looked closed at the wall. The Black Shadow placed his shining stones towards the stones. One of the stones had a strange symbol on it. So, Amina pushed it firmly. Surprisingly the gentle pushed made a passage behind the wall. All to their surprise they found there are eleven people was locked in the cage like cells.

Jihan shouted in excitement as he said, "Father, my father, holding a strange man."

The man holds Jihan firmly in his lap and said. "it's ok my son".

All these men were free as their chains were destroyed. They did not know how they were rescued all they know they were saved by these three people. The Black Shadow and Amina began their journey towards The Citadel of Ebril. Alongside them Jihan, his father and other ten men joined. They took a vow to kill Hakim, at any cost.
