Chapter 33 - Against The Mothers

"You are already resting, young princess?" Garamba's voice emanates from where the explosion occurred.

Enraged gates up prepared to attack, "You!"

"Yes, it is me again, and I brought your mother here too!" she points behind Mukura.

"What did you just do?"

"Let's see, I just saved my son from dying!"

"No, you just saved the servant of the demon!" she replies preparing to attack.

"Divine!" Genteel yells out her name.

"Is that supposed to mean something to me?" she asks impudently turning to look at Genteel.

Genteel approaches her slowly and carefully watching her, "I named you Divine when you were born!"

"Look at me! Do you see anything divine about me?"

"Yes, there is!" she continues to advance but wary of what she might do.

"How would you know? You have never been there long enough to know anything about me and yet here you are uttering words as if you know who I am."

"I know I have not been there for you! I was forced to stay away from you. I never wanted to let you ago and live my life without you!"

She laughs and scoffs looking away with a spiteful look on her face, "Is that your excuse for leaving me!?"

"No!" she answers placing her hand on Mukura's face. 

"Please, do not fight Gurudza anymore." She pleads with her, "He is not the servant of Gwanhoya and neither are you!" 

"Wow! So, you thought that I was going to be biddable? Just like that?" her face turns blank uttering these words. 

Gurudza laughs coming from behind Garamba, "You really need to teach that brat of yours some manners!" 

Garamba holds his arm, "You need to just stop whatever it is you want to do right now, Gurudza!" she advises him. 

He pauses frowning slowly turning to look at Garamba, "So, after all this time you decide to play mother to me now?" 

She removes her hand from his shoulder staring straight into his spiteful eyes and there is a faint red steam blowing inside them, "Genteel!" she calls her name, "They are both under a spell of some sort!"

Genteel looks at Garamba, "What?" 

"Look in her eyes!" Garamba shrieks.

Genteel looks into her eyes and sees the faint red steam in Mukura's eyes.

Gurudza places his faces right in front of Garamba's, "All this time I thought you were dead yet you were busy playing demon minion in the shadows!" 

Garamba steps back slowly, "Gurudza, my child! You are not in your right mind right now!"

A sneer appears on his face, "Ohh dear mother! I have never been more enlightened than this in my entire life!" he opens his palm and looks at it, "I think I am better off without a mother anyway, since the one who birthed me never cared enough to put aside her personal ambitions and raise me!"

A black lightning bolt appears in his hand.

Genteel turns to check out what is going on between Garamba and Gurudza. Mukura blows a strong wind at her and Genteel neutralises it.

"That is just disrespectful, mother! You should not turn your back at your daughter!" her domineering words annoy Genteel at this point and she redirects her eyes at her daughter.

"I guess, Gurudza was right about one thing! I will have to teach you some manners today!" she thuds the ground with the stuff.

Lightning from Gurudza strikes the stuff sending in flying away from Genteel who is shocked by this turn of events. 

"Well, well, looks like the magic wand is gone female Gandalf! How will you be able to beat me now?" 

"Come and find out!"

Mukura waves her right hand and a strong wind blows hitting Genteel sending her back. And she drops into Gurudza who was focused on Garamba. Genteel gets up and charge to Mukura who is readying another attack.

Garamba claps her hands once and the whole area is covered in darkness. And the four of them stop fighting.

"A coward's tool is the blindness of others for he or she fears defeat!"

"I am not afraid of you boy!" Garamba answers from right behind him. 

Launches an elbow attack and she dodges going and he completely turns to look her direction. Garamba rises and places her hand on his chest and Gurudza is instantly restrained from moving. 

"That will hold you for a while until I am done with the little girl too!"

A strong wind blows around the area and Garamba is taken by the wind and is forced to remove the eternal darkness and the wind disperses and she falls to the ground. 

Slowly Garamba begins waking up and Mukura is already at her furious for disturbing her from what she was about to do. 

"Why did you have to do that, witch?" Mukura asks enraged and her voice is now starting to sound distorted like Gwanhoya's.

"I forgot to mention, I am also not going to let you harm my friend as well!" 

Mukura grabs her by the neck lifting her up into the air, "This is between mother and daughter but I guess killing you first will be a good appetiser!" 

Garamba struggling to remove herself from Mukura's grip looks at Genteel who is still on the ground, "Genteel, right now will be a good time to do something!" she urges Genteel seeing the situation she is in is deadly.

"Ohh, you think she is in a position to help you right now?" Mukura puts on a malicious grin on her face, "She is welcome to try but she cannot do anything anyway. So, trying and not trying the situation will not change."

She chuckles and starts coughing struggling to breathe well she forces her voice out, "You still do not get anything yet, do you?" she struggles to remove the hand again but still appears to be futile, "We are not fighting to kill you so we are holding back a great deal of power so that we will not harm you but since the both of you are being stubborn, I guess there is not point in trying to reason with you and not inflicting any damage!"

Her eyes turn bright red, "Genteel, if they will not listen to reason let's beat it into them and I am sure we will be able to heal them afterward no matter how severe the damage is!"

Genteel wakes up ad her eyes slowly turn white, "Yes that is true but even though, let us not goal out on them just enough!"

Mukura is confused looking at Garamba no longer struggling. She looks at Genteel and she seems to fine as well no longer damaged. 

Genteel disappears and reappears beside Mukura looking at Garamba, "Well, since it is a battle they desire, a battle we will give them!" she smiles malevolently.

Excited by this development Garamba says to Genteel, "I have not seen that look in your eyes in a long-time" Garamba stares at Genteel with approval. 

Mukura trembling and confused, looks at Genteel with the corner of her eye. Her power has sky rocketed from where it was and feels foreboding to her and not only hers. The power that she is feeling from Garamba is also tiers above where it was.
