I do not own
Arabic language
Six year old Ardeth Bey sat down with his little brother Rashid, and his best friend Kagome as they watch festival begin. Everyone was having a great time and in the middle of the music Ardeth saw one of the other village boys walking up to Kagome to asked her to dance. The boy saw Ardeth's glare and he backed away. Ardeth smirked in victory. He didn't like sharing his friendship with Kagome with other boys. But it was so hard since she was so likeable and all the other boys thought she was cute.
"I saw that Ardeth." Kagome glared at him
"I did nothing." Ardeth smiled trying to look innocent
She still glared at him but she couldn't help but smile back at him. He knew she couldn't stay mad at him for too long but knew that she had her mothers' temper. So he knew not to push her too far.
"I made you something for you Ardeth." She said
She took out a beaded necklace with a Medjai symbol in the middle. He smiled at it and let her put it around his neck.
"Thank you Kagome." He said
Then he kissed her on the cheek and he smirked when she looked away from him when her face was covered with blush. Suddenly the sky started to get cloudy and the sound of a storm was about to start. Everyone stop what they were doing and let out shriek when a blot of light hit the ground. Then a very beautiful woman appeared out of it and Ardeth saw Kagome's mother Juri gasp and looked afraid. Kagome ran over to her mother and her father Basal, who stood in front of them to protect them from harm.
"Who are you? What do you want?" Basal asked
The woman ignored him and looked at Juri as she spoke to her in another language. Juri started yelling at the lady in the same language and whatever she said anger the lady and her eyes started to glow bright yellow. Then a bright swirling light surrounded Juri and Kagome. Basal tried to grab them but he just went through them. Ardeth eyes widen in fear as he saw his best friend and his betroth started slowly to disappear. He ran towards them and when he was about to grab Kagome's hand they just vanish.
Ardeth woke up panting from the dream he just had. It has been fifteen years since his dear friend and her mother vanish before his eyes. He sighed. He hated that memory. Then he lay back down on his bed and fiddle with necklace Kagome had gave him that day. He never took off for it was the only reminder of her. His little dessert flower.
When morning came he and his men were getting ready to leave for Hamunaptra when he heard his mother arguing with his little brother. It was always the same thing. Their mother has been telling them that it was time to fine a wife since their twenty-one birthdays. Ardeth wouldn't listen since he still believed that Kagome will come back to him. Rashid on the other hand wasn't betrothed to anyone so she focused more on him and Ardeth thank Allah for that. After that, Ardeth and the rest of the Medjai were on the move. Ardeth heard his brother muttering to himself so he turn his horse towards him.
"Care to share brother?" Ardeth asked
Radish sighed "Mother told me if I don't fine a wife soon she is going to find me one on her own."
"I'm surprise you haven't found one yet Rashid your very popular the women in the village." Ardeth laughed
"Not as popular as you." Rasdih chuckled
"My heart only belongs to one woman." Ardeth said softly touching the necklace.
"It's been fifteen years Ardeth. Do you really think she's coming back?" Rasdih asked
"My heart tells she will, brother." Ardeth said "Tell me, what you are looking for in a wife?"
"Well… for one thing she would have to be beautiful, smart, and could cook. It will be nice to know that she could fight and has a temper." Rasdih said "I like a woman that could keep me in line. Better than a wife that's quite and nods at everything that I say."
Ardeth laughed. Then he heard lightning coming from the direction in Hamunaptra. They weren't expecting a storm like this anytime soon so the two brothers hurry to the cliff where they could see the city better. Ardeth eyes widen when he saw the tornado. It looked just like the one from fifteen years ago. Suddenly a beam of light shot down in the middle of the tornado and it disappeared. When the dust of sand was gone Ardeth saw two figures lying on the ground. He could tell that they were females and his heart started to beat faster.
'Could it be?' He thought
He raced to the city with his brother behind him. When they got close to them they dismount their horses and walked towards the two women. Ardeth notice that they were wearing foreign clothes that he had seen Juri wore before. Japanese clothes he believed. He went over to the woman with black hair and when he turn her over his heart nearly stopped. She looked like vision of his Kagome. Same raven black hair, light skin, and her heart shape face. Then she opened her blue eyes a little and that made him believe that it was her. Sadly her eyes closed again slumped into his arms. He held her tight, fearing that she will disappear again and then picked her and her bag up. He looked at his brother who was staring deeply at the other woman. She looked to be the same age as Kagome (perhaps two years older than her) had brown hair, a strange weapon was strapped on her back and was holding on to a cat. Ardeth had to keep himself from laughing when he saw the look on his brothers' face. It appears that his brother had found the woman of his dreams and Ardeth was finally given back the woman he lost and loved.
