Рахат Ягшимырадов – A Lucid Dream. The Wrath of Havra (страница 3)

Ruslan and Oktam held their breath as they watched below. Suddenly, something leaped up toward the rope with the food. The helpless bodies of the twins fell to the ground. It was two snakes—large and terrifying, hissing and writhing around the food. One snake was white, the other black. They were more than ten meters long. They tore the ropes apart and reached the food.

Ruslan and Oktam were so frightened that they could barely hold themselves back from running away. The snakes didn’t notice them and started arguing, snatching food from each other.

"This is my share; you’ve already eaten yours," said the black snake.

"No, this is mine! You’ve eaten enough," replied the white snake, pulling the remaining food toward herself.

Then the black snake lunged at the white one, and they began to fight. The battle was intense. Suddenly, the white snake threateningly said:

"Don’t forget, I know your weak spot. If you drink water purified with silver, you’ll die."

"Don’t threaten me, I know your weak spot too. If you smell mint, you’ll start suffocating, and you won’t last long," replied the black snake.

After threatening each other, they seemed to tire of the argument and crawled back into the twins. It became clear that it wasn’t the twins who were so voracious, but the reptiles inside them.

"Did you see that? Have you ever seen anything like this?" Oktam whispered, still in shock.

"No, but I suspected something wasn’t right," said Ruslan.

"How could you have suspected that?" Oktam asked, not understanding.

"I have the ability to sense the energy emitted by people. When I saw them, I felt that the twins were terribly exhausted. I noticed a different energy in them, black. And that’s when I realized someone was controlling them. That’s why I took on this task," explained Ruslan.

After Ruslan and Oktam discovered how to destroy the snakes, they told Alihan about it. Alihan ordered a large amount of mint to be gathered and the water to be purified with silver. Fearing that the twins might wake up much earlier because they hadn’t eaten enough the previous night, the guys decided to stay and finish the task before the snakes woke up.

By dawn, everything was ready. This time, Alihan himself helped, along with his men. They threw a lot of mint into the well. The smell quickly spread around. Suddenly, a white snake crawled out of one of the twins, began to slither and thrash about until it suffocated. In their joy, they started pouring silver-purified water onto the second twin to get rid of the black reptile. But the snake didn’t even think about coming out.

Then Ruslan decided to go down and feed the second twin the water before the second snake woke up. They lowered him down with a rope. But as soon as Ruslan was about to pour the water into the twin’s mouth, the head of the snake suddenly appeared from his mouth. Apparently, the black snake had sensed the mint and decided to crawl out before it was too late.
