"Takkar…Takkar….TAKKER!"

Sayla voice calls to me, my eyes open to her, her face cover in war paint. She cover herself with cloth of gold as she unties me.

"I am sorry." She spoke to me when she did last rope. "I'm not what you are. I'm monster." When free my hands reach to her throat. Both her hands grab me but I hold tight.

"You are monster! You pretend to me Sayla you-Takkar…I am Sayla…" She tells me, her tears fall down her cheek. I look into her eyes, I saw Sayla, my Sayla.

"Sayla?" I say, I remove my hands from her, freeing her, she coughs and starts to cry.

"Takkar…" She spoke. Her fingers begins to claw her neck. Drawing blood out of her perfect skin. "I am monster!" She said, I grip her hands, pull them away from her neck.

"Stop, we must leave." I tell her, her head shakes and turns.

"Her men see us, kill you." She said.

"They think you are Batari, they no know about Sayla." I tell her. "You pretend to be Batari."

"Then what?" Sayla asked me.

"We go to Tensay, he find way to help." I tell her, I stand to feet, pulling her up with me. "We go." I tell her, she nods head as she and I walk to end of temple. Izila outside sleep on ground, not very good warriors. Sayla and I walk over sleeping bodies of Izila, as we do I feel, breeze between legs, I look down to see no clothe on my skin. The air was cold but I move behind Sayla till we away from temple. We move into woods, were Izila men violate woman of both Udum and Wenja. My blood boils at the sight of them screaming and pleading, but I cannot do anything now. I must wait, I must return to village and fix Sayla, she key to this. We walk but was spotted by Izila.

"GODDESS!" They shout, Sayla and I look at Izila, I look at Sayla, her eyes widen with fear. Izila man walk to us, he naked, his body covered in war paint and blood. He get on knees and lower his head. "Goddess, why you leave temple, and why Wenja with you?" He asked, I look to Sayla. She take breathe before looking at Izila, her lips tremble as they open.

"I punish Wenja." She spoke, in izila!? "Wenja must learn to be mine, I teach him." She spoke, Izila man smile.

"What he do?" Izila man asked.

"He did not listen to me, this…this…" Sayla look at me, she raise hand then hits me, sending body to the ground. I did not know she was so strong. I look up to her, her eyes filled with sadness.

"Wenja no listen! Wenja will be punished!" She shouted. "You will too if you do not leave me!"

"HURT HIM! HE KILL MANY MEN!" Izila shouted before running away into the dark night. Sayla take breathe before looking at me as I stand to feet. When Izila out of sight she look to me.

"I am sorry." She spoke, the hand that hit me gently touch my bruised skin. I moan in pain, her cold fingers press against skin, it felt…good. To be touched by Sayla, Batari touch rough and hurt, Sayla soft and smooth. Her small hand move from my cheek to my chest, touching the place where heart was. I grab her hand, hold it in mine.

"I love you Sayla." I tell her. "I will go to ends of earth, I will save you from Batari." I tell her. Sayla smile at me as she shacks her head.

"I love you Takkar." She tell me.

(Wenja village or tribe, I don't know what to call it...)

It was long travel to village, feet bleed and legs ache but Sayla and I make it before sun rise in one moon. Time we get to Village, Sayla start to act strange, her body twitch out of control, her hands ripping her at hair. I look to sky, see Sun rising. Batari was taking control. I grab Sayla hand, drag her to village, into cage, lock her in. Sayla fall to ground, begins to scream, she claws dirty beneath her body, screams loudly, waking sleeping Wenja village. Jayma and Tensay walk to me, Jayma look down between legs then smiles.

"Mammoth feet in deed." She said with big smile on face.

"Go get Roshani!" I shout at her, she nods and leave, I look back to cage, Tensay stare at Sayla.

"Batari?" Tensay asked, Sayla smile as she get to her knees.

"Tensay…I not see you in while…" She spoke as smile appears on face. "Come in, we talk."

"I feel safe. Outside of cage." Tensay tells her, Roshani comes here with Jayma behind him.

"I teach men to plant food, this be important?" He said.

"ROSHANI!" Batari shout. "TRAITOR!"

"I no betray Wenja." Roshani tells Sayla, he not know about Batari.

"You betray Izila! TRAITOR!" Sayla shout, she then start to scream in Izila, making Roshani eyes widen. He look to me with fear in eyes.

"What wrong with Sayla?" He asked.

"Batari spirit fly into Sayla body." Tensay said.

"Batari come back from spirit world, how?" Roshani asked.

"I am child of goddess, she bring me back." Batari said.

"In Sayla body?" Jayma asked, Batari smiles.

"Sayla…do you know what Sayla and I are?" Batari asked. "Sayla, my sister here, born same day. She come after me. But we have different mothers. Sayal born when sun went down and stars lined around moon."

"Priest not say that!" Roshani said. "Priest say you only child born!"

"Priest lied!" Batari said. "Sayla was sacrificed to mother, priest throw her down river. But Sayla live, was founded by Wenja! Mother displeased, Mother tried to kill Sayla but kept failing. Sayla mother protect her, Sayla evil."

"Why Sayla evil?" Jayma asked.

"Sayla daughter of moon goddess, night fear by humans." Batari said as her smile grows wider. "Sayla no know about past, Sayla no know she is Izila! One of us."

"Sayla is Wenja!" I shout at Batari. "Not Izila!" Batari smile disappear, she look to ground, lays her body down. Back to me and others.

"Sayla…crying…She loud…hurts ears…"
