The Augury

Part 28

[Mbali]

I'm biting my nail thinking as I drive Mvelo to the location
Me: do you think the attacked are going to stops now ?"
Him: I don't know depend entirely on how many witches  were in the coven "

Me: so how many witches make up a coven ?"
Him: angazi what does your study about our kind say? you tell me bright spark "
He looks at me and bust out and laughed
Me: hahaha not funny Mvelo I'm serious bro, I can have another serial killing what will I explain this mass!!"

Him: ok I'm sorry look broh, The number of witches in a coven may vary, and any meeting of three or more can be considered a coven.  Some covens limit membership to thirteen,  and possibly on the grounds that this is the maximum number which can be comfortably accommodated in the traditional 9-foot circle"
Me: as in joining hands around the Pentagram circle"

Him: ya, However, some groups consider that a coven of as many as six  members"
Me: I think Cebo coven it's six members the room had start shape signs in the walls  and which has six-point edges...and also cebo was suppose to give birth to six children for rituals  to make up the orbit"
Him: you right  ...only two of her kids were used for ritual sacrifice ...what if her womb possed the most gifted child   that why she was chosen by siphon?"
I looked at him after parking the car
Me: you may be on to something there "
Him: but what? "
Me: I guess will have to find outcome let's go in"

We were escorted by the security guard to the crime scene, I was busy checking my phone, but still no call or SMS from Jabu
" Nxa" I find my self saying out loud
Mvelo: what?"
Me: Jabu uyacika, she acts like a single woman would it have killed her to check up on me nje for once "
Him: why you not doing it? You are her partner too!"
Me: I'm tired, njalo yimi running after her, it's like this relationship is one-sided"
Him: what? Mbali what's going on ?"
Me: just drop it ... I don't want to talk about it "
He looked at me expecting that I say something, but I just looked at the security guard opening the door,
Guard " when you done please drop the key at the front desk"
I nodded and we walked in

" This is not over ...help me find salt in this room "
Me: salt?"
Mvelo: the room belongs to a witch, trust me she has salt "
I looked at him moving around he opened drawers and came back with five candles, he looked at the floor as if he's looking for something, he smiled to himself as he moved the single bed from its position to the side of the room

Me: sifunani vele?"
Him: what are you standing there for?? cinga usawoti Mbali!!"
Urg I even forgot, he rolled the rug that was under the bed and smiled
Him: she was cleaver I give her that "
I popped my eyes as I looked at a white paint drawing of a Pentagram circle it was really big
Me: wow!"
He looked at me with his killer lion eyes ooh shit salt!

Him: must I do everything Mbali !!?? I ask for one thing find salt wen umile njengesdumbu nxa!"
He started opening up drawers and shouting at me ooh God his such a bully
Him: what is this?"
He pointed a pocket of salt at me that was in his hand
Me: I'm sorry "
Him: nxa!"
He started drawing with salt on the Pentagram circle he places candles at the 5 points of the star.

" Stand on that end of the circle of the Pentagram "
he said pointing and I moved to the other side.
He started chanting:  “I call forth from space and time, matriarchies from the witches of the North, South, East, and West ... Mothers, Daughters... Power of the sisters rise, Course unseen across the skies, come to us who call you near, come to us and settle here, blood to blood, I summon thee, blood to blood, return to thee spirit without end, to Gather now in this place and help us...Tells us about who in your lineage had a magic streak...Power of the sisters rise, Course unseen across the skies, come to us who call you near, come to us and settle here, blood to blood, I summon thee, blood to blood, return to me”

He chanted few times with his eyes clothes and the flame of the candle rose up like lava making the room shake, after that the room became dark, I felt a spirit in this room when I open my eyes four women were standing on the orbit the very same witches of the coven, the dead women

" prince of light you summon us "
Mvelo smiled " the keepers of the vail may I speak to fallen Augury "
They stepped away from the circle placing their crystal in the center, a bright light shined blinding me I placed my hand on my eyes when the light deemed down there stood a glowing white unicorn,  it started changing and transforming into this beautiful women, I drop my mouth open once the transformation was done 
Me: Nomcebo!"
She turned around and smiled,
