The Deranged Enraged

Watching the mentally deranged displaying is amusing but will one ever pray to share his fate? As a kid Mathew and his two friends had always been elated to assist Kunle whenever he was on the mission to serve Galali his meal. If not owing to the fact that going with him was the only chance they had at seeing and playing pranks with the insane man, Kunle knew they wouldn't have helped him in a million years.
Disaster stroke on one fateful Friday evening. After Mathew had seen his father off to his hunting expedition, he jumped outside leaving his domestic chores. They met at their usual rendezvous where they would wait for Kunle to pass by. Kunle was the man paid by the village to take care of Galali. As soon as they sighted him from afar, they ran joyfully to meet him and after the normal greetings they shared in his luggage. For him, it was a joy having extra hands to help him without having a claim in his fat salary, so when its time to pay the boys, he would grant them an unrestricted access.
Its a long walk from the village to the sick man’s castle, a place volunteered for him by the villagers after it was declared hazardous having him walk around the village with normal people. The kids hated the stress of going on such a long walk especially with loads on their heads but who would they complain to, it is a price they have to pay for the pleasure they seek.
Soon they reached the abandon farm house which served as an abode for the deranged man, a building located at the extreme outskirt of the village. Kunle who only had the key to the villa opened the gate and they all trooped in. He pulled out another key, opened the door to the main room and there sat this dark hefty man with the huge hair on his head generously endowed with lice.
‘Hello Galali, here is your food’ Kunle said showing him a bowl of Eba with Okro soup.
He tried to move forward to take the food from his handler but he was held back by the chain on his wrist which was tied to the wall. Kunle motioned to the children to come have the fun they came for.
Taju who was the eldest and the bravest among the three came forward, took a morsel from the bowl and then threw it at the insane man. The man remain calm at first
but when the game was upped with missiles of eba mixed with little stone he started screaming for mercy. The more he screamed, the more they laughed and intensified the game.
It was when the missile hit one of his eyes that he went berserk, he used his free leg to kick his tormentor to a corner in the room. The rest retracted backward watching as Galali struggled to break off his restrain. Taju weaken by the sudden kick tried to make his way out of the room before his friends could slam the door but unfortunately he couldn’t.
They were all taken aback when they saw Galali broke off his chain and descended on Taju, giving him a terrible beaten with the broken chain. They took to their heels leaving their friend at the mercy of the deranged man who didn’t stop until he had beaten life out of his victim.
Hungry not for food anymore but for blood, Galali stepped out of his cell for the first time in five years. He sort for a weapon to aid him in his quest for vengeance and found a spade. Kunle came out offering him the food he had been denied but he knocked him down with the spade and pulverized his brain. The remaining two after witnessing the horror, made a run for it but Galali followed in pursuit.
They ran out of the compound into the road shouting for help but who could hear them, afterall they were at the outskirt of the village. Still blood thirsty, Galali came out with his weapon to see his preys running off. He aimed the spade at the closest one and brought him down. Galali wasted no time in ran catching up to his victim, knocked him out and began shoving out his inner organs. Matthew screamed to the top of his voice when he saw his friend’s inner parts scattered on the ground.
After pleasing himself with the poor boy, Galali charged toward his final prey. Sensing his imminent death, Matthew became engulfed with fear. Below his trouser came drops of liquid slipping down to the ground. Galali came at him with his spade but before he could initiate an attack, a gun shot was heard and the monster fell. Matthew couldn't believe his eyes when he saw his father came out of the forest with his hunting gun, he ran to him and took solace in his bosom.
