“I didn’t mean you any harm. But I need to know where you are from and what you are going to do in our land,” the priestess said, who got nearer to them while still riding on the back of the horse.“We did not wish to be here,” Diana said as well in Archaic Egyptian.Eric was so impressed that he smiled a bit. But when he realized it was idiotic of him, he put on a serious face again. He had not a vaguest idea on what they were going to do in thi

The four teens’ jaws dropped when they heard it. They found it weird but they understood the language.“She’s a witch and a priestess,” Elise whispered in American English.“What?” Diana said in a low voice. “How did you know that?”Elise shook her head. “I don’t know. I seem to read or hear her thoughts,” Elise whispered again to her friend.Diana was more confused while looking at Elise with disbelief.“Where exactly are we?” Eric asked. He wanted to confirm what he knew. “Is it really in Ancient Egypt?”“What the hell are we doing here? Just how did it happen?” Kent asked and glanced at Elise. His brows were furrowed.“I don’t know!” Elise said, shaking her head once again. “And she’s asking the same thing in her mind!” she added, referring to the priestess, gesturing her way.“Who a

But when he realized it was idiotic of him, he put on a serious face again. He had not a vaguest idea on what they were going to do in this ancient time and place. And just how they ended there…The priestess frowned and sized them up again. “You fought very well,” she told the two guys and nodded. “My guards and I did not see anything like it before. I wish to keep you all in my temple with King Iry-Hor. I am sure he would want to keep you and use you against our enemies.”The four teenagers frowned at the priestess. They looked afraid to be forced to fight for this priestess and her king

Now, the king was seated on his throne and demanded more information about what happened earlier.“Tell me if the story was true that’s why you sent my nephew after some foreigners.”“Yes, my king,” she answered softly. “The four of them were powerful. We can use them to defeat the Scorpion King, King Hor-Aha of Ta Shemau.”“Why didn’t you use your powers to stop them?” He sounded dangerous to her liking.“I did not think it was necessary at the time, my king,” she almost stammered.The witch priestess blinked and breathed deeply. She was afraid the king would find another powerful priestess and punish her. She kne

Chapter 14: The Two Lands of Egypt
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief after they watched the fierce-looking general gone. Making sure that the general was gone, together with his soldiers, Eric did a quick check. He peered in the corner, crouching.“So, you can actually do that?” Diana asked as she looked at Elise in another light. “But how?” She was still weirded by this.“It was just an instinct. I didn’t know it would actually work until that guy came over to check on us.” Elise shook her head, referring to the unknown official who looked over at their hiding location a short while ago. She was also awed by this kind of ability she had, which never occurred to her until then. Could it be God or the gods helped them?They all rested their back on the wall and looked up at the starry night.“It seems that the huge guy has abandoned us,” Diana said with a sigh.Just when she finished speaking, they saw him sneaking. He found them

General Meru arrived at the temple the next morning. He jumped off from his horse and marched toward the interior of the temple, where his uncle’s throne was also standing prominently. He approached him even when he was still having his breakfast that morning. The king was seated near the big window where light poured right in. The different dishes were arranged on the table where the ruler sat at. From there, he could see the guards patrolling the vast premise.Meru bowed and kneeled before his uncle, the Cobra King. He decided to see him right away when they arrived back in the temple even though he was empty-handed.The king regarded him with forceful dark eyes. “I can see you failed to bring them back,” King Iry-Hor stated with a frowning face.“My grave apologies, uncle—my king. Nobody has seen them in the city even though they were spotted entering the city gates late last night.”King Iry-Hor drank some wine that

Chapter 16: Bast City
It was in the middle of the day when they entered the city of Bast. They saw a procession of people going to the river. Some women brought cymbals and tambourines and played them while they walked toward the River Nile. Meanwhile, the men played some kind of pipes, and those without instruments clapped and danced.The five also saw some ancient crafts floating on the water. A wooden carved head of a cat was on them.“It is the Feast of Bast,” Mazoi explained to them quietly. “Her gifts are mainly fertility and joy.”Diana and Elise made an “Oh!” comment when they heard it. And the two guys just grinned at each other.Their eyes swept the bustling surroundings. They noticed the buildings looked old because of the dull color of the bricks and stones that were unpainted. The townhouses were joined together, and they appeared to look the same. There were some children playing on the roof tops and they jumped from o
