A RISKY HELP

Ben was outside in a small town in Nigeria, the town was a rural area, which was not very civilized, 

He was inside a large forest, trying to harvest some crops he planted, 

"What was that, Ben" said Kenny when he saw a little creature walking toward them, 

"Why scared, it just a little monkey" said Ben, as he continue to harvest the plants, Kenny eyes was not off the creature standing far away in the forest, the creature started moving closer to them, 

Kenny stood up and stopped what he was doing, "I don't think I can continue this work today, the monster is near us" said Kenny as he started to shivers, 

Ben stood also, he look delighted to the little creature coming to them,

"Coward man, this is just a little boy" said Kenny

The little creature moved more near to them and they realized he is really a little boy with rag on his body, he has a scar all over his hands, legs, head and some other part of his body, 

He was walking toward them like a zombie, 

"Hope he is normal, I think this boy is a zombie" said Kenny, the little boy cloth was soaked with blood, 

"This is a helpless boy, I think we need to help him" said Ben.

"I will never be help a monster into this town to consume this town," said Kenny, he ran out of the forest, leaving Ben and the poor boy, 

Ben was somehow scared of the appearance of the boy, 

"What's your name?" Ben asked the little boy, but the poor boy was not able to give a reply, he was only looking innocent, Ben pitied him " He may be hungry" Ben thought and he asked the little boy whether he is hungry or not but still the little boy was not able to say anything, 

Ben took the boy in his hand out of the forest, and still asking him some questions like 'where are you coming from?', 'who is your father?' but the boy never give a reply, that make Ben started to suspect something about the boy

Immediately when Ben stepped out of the forest, he met Kenny coming toward him with two king massagers, 

"Mr. Ben, the King want you in the palace, you and the little monster" said one of the King massagers.

Ben knew Kenny had reported to the king, he had no choice than to follow the king messenger and Kenny to the palace,

They got to the palace, the king saw the child and was also pitied the poor child, and even think to take care of the child, but Kenny and other people in the palace keep telling the king that the child was sent to terminate the town, 

"He is a Demon" said Kenny and others in the palace, 

The king asked the child some questions but the child didn't reply instead he was showing a face of confusion, that make the king felt suspicious and told his soldiers to get him killed, but for the son to show some fear, he acted like he didn't understand, 

Ben was shocked when he heard from the king to kill the little poor boy.

" why, your Highness, the boy did nothing to you" shouted Ben. 

"How dare you question the king" one of the king yelled at to make the king felt disrespected,

The king spoke in action "the child mist be killed" 

Ben begged the king on behave of the child but the chiefs refused, 

"If you want him alive, go out of the town with the demon and without taking a pin out of your properties" said the king, 

Ben felt shocked "how is that possible to go out of this town, where I have a large of farm, houses, animals and lot of properties, and you expect me to leave without taking non, that's impossible" Ben thought.

The soldiers took the poor boy at hand to where he is going to be killed

      The little poor boy followed the soldiers freely without struggling with them or having in mind to run away, Ben pitied the poor boy and agreed with the king to leave all his properties and move out in the town with the boy, Ben knew it will be a great suffer for him and the boy he wanted to save, 

 "You agree to go out of the town with the boy without taking even a coin with you" said the king, he was shocked for seeing a man that agree to leave all his properties because he wanted to save a stranger, " that's good of you" said the king and told the soldiers to hand over the boy to Ben.

Ben moved out of the town with the soldiers makes sure he left with taking nothing out of his properties, all his properties was enough for him to be rich but for the sake of the boy's life, he dropped them to a city far from the town

He was depressed, thinking of what he's going to do next, "won't I regret for saving this boy life" he thought, 

During his time in the new city, so many people were staring at him and the boy, especially the boy, Ben started to wonder why much people are been staring at the boy like that.

"They might thought he was a zombie because of his bloody cloth" 

Ben keep walking hopelessly in the city, till he met a man at the road side staring at the little boy severely, the man moved to Ben and hold the boy look him in the eye.

"I knew it is Jackson" the man said so surprised as the carried the little boy.

"Did you know him?" Ben asked 

"Yeah, he is the missing son of this state Governor" said the man " the Governor had promised who ever that found the son millions of dollar" said the man and lead Ben to the Governor house.

  The Governor was very happy for seeing back his missing son, Ben asked how he was missing because he was not sure the poor boy was the Governor's son, 

The Governor started to narrate how it happens, it was an accident that happened when they was doing an excursion around the town where Ben left, suddenly a fatal accident happened that lead all the Governor officers to death, his wife also died in the accident but the boy was missing, they never knew whether he was died or still alive, 

Ben also explained how he saw the boy and how the king planned to get him killed, the Governor was very glad and impressed with how Ben pleasantly leave all his properties to save his son life.

The Governor asked his son some question but was not able to reply, then he realized that he has lose his memory, that was the reason he was not been able to answer all the questions he had been asked.

"For a man to take that risky help he deserve something huge" said the Governor, he gave Ben the huge millions that he promise to give who ever found his son, also he gave him a beautiful building and also he make him one of the politician in the country.
