Kapitel 64: THE DANCE!

Father do I have to stay till the end to all this festivities? Ayanna asked her father.

Not exactly dear, once you feel too tired to cope you can go to your quarters to get some needed rest, since you woke up from your coma instead if resting, you got thrown into this festive frail. Am of the suggestion that you go round to some of the clans and greet them that way you can even leave earlier.

Oh I can do that?

Yes you can do that, you can do anything my girl, one you are the royal princess and now you are born under the purple sky ah! least not forget you inherited the telepathic powers of Queen Idia. Ayanna let's even leave all this your school record is even more impressive you are a genius with computers what can I say I am a proud father for i have a bad*ss daughter.

Ayanna was feeling all warm inside, she never had a father growing up, now she was with her father and if this feeling of happiness threatening to overflow from her chest was part what she missed then she was glad to have her father back. Turning over to him, right there in the full glare of the public's eye she gave her daddy a tight and big hug.

Thank you daddy for coming for me Ayanna said to her father. There were tears in her eyes.

Prince Martin Obaseki hugging his daughter brought a lump to his throat, he missed his daughter's tender years of growth, not counting his visit when she was only five. years and now at almost twenty three years she was a grown woman he intends to be in her life as much as she allows him to.

Go girl, mix up and know your people, only thing be on guard, and always let Hauwa go with you.

Ayanna nodded, OK daddy.

Standing up she headed to the king kneeling she told his majesty she would like to go round and greet people before she retires of which his majesty approved.

Moving out with Hauwa sticking by her side the went to the closest Ovie clan, this clan had their own dance troop the clan head daughter was present too but as Ayanna approached them they all rose up on their feet and loud cheering was heard from them, Princess Ayanna wasn't sure how to greet this people so she just wanted to go with the flow.

As she walked towards the dancing group to try and dance along she saw that their movie clan head was kind of waiting for something to happen, she wanted to take a step to show her respect but she couldn't move, what was this what was pulling her backward, this is an open place she must say hi to them na abi, if she tries to move forward with style no way but if she does as if she wants to go back then no restrictions this must mean something.

Ayanna stared performing the dance step of the dancers too as best as she could which made many people to laugh, then one of the female dancers started showing her how the dance is done.

Since Ayanna spirit did not allow her to go to them she then signalled the beautiful girl, the clan heads daughter to come over to where they were, all this while the man who seemed to be like her father wouldn't let her go but now that the Princess sent for her in the full glare of everyone present both foe and friends he must let her go to avoid a huge misunderstanding, but wow this must be the gods trying to punish him for already meddling with the Princess now his daughter chei!

OK what happened was just like he had planned with his warrior's they needed to be sure this Princess was truely possessing the power of the great Queen Idia, they had planted a root on the ground as soon as they heard that they Princess will go round to greet everyone just to test her powers, this root once crossed will cause the intended after some minutes paralysis if she was truely the Queens incarnate then the root will work but her body will neutralize it.

Her powers did not even let her go near the trap let alone activating the neutralization buff, it made her instead not to even go near it now that she sent for his daughter instead his daughter will be the one crossing the paralysis root.

The dance called Ugho that was being taught to Princess Ayanna is danced in elegance it is a dance that typifies the temperament of elegance of the Benin woman, they demonstrate their elegance and artistry in the said dance, their hands and feets move in grand style.

What can he do? nothing, he does not even have an antidote he can't stop this, so he gave his permission to his daughter to go to Princess Ayanna. The clan head daughter then crossed the root and met with Ayanna who gave her a hug and asked her her name, my Princess my name is Omoyemwen she said.

My name is Princess Ayanna come let's dance do you know how? Ayanna asked.

Yes I have some knowledge let me show you, Omoyemwen said.

Omoyemwen started showing her the hands and feet's are places when doing the dance and the next thing she fell and her hands and feet's curled in an ugly fashion.

Ayanna was stunned is this part of the dance? looking at Hauwa who shook her head and went to her, kneeling she checked on the girl whose legs has lost its functions her father also rushed forward, what is wrong with her please Ayanna asked then she extended her power only to see that Omoyemwen's father was the one that set the trap for her to fall in to only for his own daughter to be the victim.
