As they ventured deeper into Agwankaya, they stumbled upon a small river, its waters barely filling two drums. Birds floated on the river's surface, their melancholic songs drifting through the air with a haunting sweetness. The birds were unlike any they had seen before - their feathers shimmered with an iridescent glow, and their eyes seemed to hold a deep wisdom. As they approached the river, the birds' songs grew louder, and they began to sing the group's names.
The group's eyes widened in wonder as they listened to the birds' haunting melody. "No one, there's no one! No one ever comes, comes and goes. Oh, Mike! Oh, Amina! Oh, TJ! No one ever comes, comes and goes. Oh, Bisola! Oh, Gidado! Oh, Avovome! No one ever comes, comes and goes. No one comes and goes... Oooooh! Oooo..."
The birds' songs were mesmerizing, and the group stood transfixed, their faces filled with a mix of amazement and trepidation. Bisola's eyes were wide with wonder, while Gidado's face was set in a determined expression. Amina's eyes were filled with a hint of fear, while Mike's face was a picture of curiosity. TJ's eyes were narrowed, as if trying to decipher the meaning behind the birds' songs. Avovome's face was a mask of calmness, but it eyes betrayed a sense of unease.
As the birds continued to sing, the water began to rise. The river swelled, its waters increasing in quantity and width. Before the group could comprehend what was happening, the river had transformed into a vast ocean. The water continued to rise, taking on a human form in a squatting position. The human form water was a marvel to behold - its body shimmered and flowed like liquid, yet it seemed to have a life of its own. Its eyes glowed with an ethereal light, and its mouth seemed to curve into a sinister smile.
The group watched in shock as the human form water rose to its full height, its body towering over them. The atmosphere was electric with tension, and the group's breathing seemed to slow down as they gazed up at the human form water in awe. The birds' songs changed, their voices warning the group of impending danger. "Warning, haven't we? Oh, warning we have. What you seek, you will see. You will see... Seeeeee! Seeeeee!"
The group realized their predicament too late. The human form water stretched out its hand, ready to grab Gidado, who was standing closest. "Watch out!" Amina screamed, alerting Gidado to the danger. The group's faces contorted with fear as they dodged the human form water's attempts to grab them. Mike's eyes were wide with panic, while TJ's face was set in a determined expression. Bisola's face was pale with fear, while Avovome's eyes seemed to be searching for a way out.
The human form water's laughter echoed through the air, a mocking "Haahaaaaaaa!" that sent shivers down the group's spines. Its body seemed to grow larger and more menacing, filling the entire space with its presence. The group's fate hung in the balance, as they struggled to outsmart the human form water and escape its deadly grasp. The birds' songs seemed to grow louder, their voices urging the group to flee, but it seemed like an impossible task. The human form water was relentless, and the group was trapped in its grasp.
As the group dodged and weaved, trying to avoid the human form water's grasp, they stumbled upon a hidden weakness. The water's body seemed to be vulnerable to the birds' songs, and whenever the birds sang a particular note, the water's form would falter. The group quickly realized this and began to work together to use the birds' songs to their advantage.
TJ, who had been observing the birds' patterns, began to sing along with them. His voice blended perfectly with the birds', and the human form water's body began to waver. Mike and Amina took advantage of the distraction to grab onto a nearby rock, using it as a makeshift anchor to pull themselves to safety. Bisola and Avovome followed suit, using their agility to dodge the human form water's attacks. Gidado, however, was still trapped, and the human form water's grip was closing in around him.
Just as all hope seemed lost, the birds sang a final, powerful note. The human form water's body dissolved into a thousand droplets of water, and Gidado was able to escape. The group breathed a sigh of relief as they watched the human form water reform into a calm, peaceful lake. The birds' songs softened, and the group realized that they had been given a second chance.
But as they turned to leave, they saw something that made their blood run cold. The human form water's face was still visible, staring at them with an unblinking gaze. And its mouth was curved into a sinister smile, hinting that this was far from over.
