Alright yes I am a horriable person and it's been, oh gosh, probably a year since I updated this, and I could give you a list of all the crap that's been going on that made me not be able to work on this story but insted I'll just say how sorry I am and I give you this chapter as a gift. I have started working on this story again, I really think it's an intresting plot line that could work out really well. So I am writing again and really working on this. I know this is a short chapter but it really just defiens what Atem and Anu will be doing so it's kind of a filler. enjoy it though!
Both of their heads shot up and into the face of their waitress. Long brown hair, a bright smile and deep sapphire eyes looked back at them. There was no denying that it was Tara. Both now knew what they had to do.
"Tara?" They both said in unison. She gave them both an odd look.
"Yes, can I get you anything?" She asked again. Anu started to talk but Atem cut her off.
"Just water will be fine Tara, thank you." He said. Tara gave a nod and left the two alone
"Can you believe that!" Anu said.
"It's Tara, I mean I don't know how but it has to be her, she didn't say anything, maybe she doesn't remember us. Atem?"
He sat blankly holding the small ring between his fingers.
"Atem it's her, I know it is, I am positive."
Atem didn't say anything. Tara came back with their drinks a few seconds later.
"Here you are, two waters." She said with a bit of sarcasm in her voice.
"Thanks Tara, My name's Anu, this is Atem, how are you?" Anu spouted off. Atem gave her a questioning look, he'd learned early that Anu's mouth didn't have much of a filter and she'd say just about anything.
"Anu?" Tara started. Anu's eyes got bright with hope.
"That's an interesting name." She said, Anu's face fell.
Tara turned to Atem who was still holding the ring.
"What's that?" She asked, leaning in to glimpse the small silver ring.
"It belonged to someone very special." Was all he said. Tara's face got cloudy.
"It looks, familiar, what did you say your name was." She asked looking him in the eyes.
"Atem." He said. She was so close, he longed to reach out and hold her, explain everything, but she backed away, her face still clouded. She took one last look at him and shook her head walking away.
"That was weird." Anu said sipping her water. Atem only nodded, reaching up to hold the small ring in his hand.
They finished their drinks and paid Tara, Anu had found money with the clothes waiting for her. Then they made their way back to Atem's house since it was a shorter distance. The sun was starting to set when they arrived and Atem was lucky to find a light switch in the room making it a little lighter than it was this morning. They both took a seat on his bead to talk.
"If the clothes were waiting for us then someone must have know we were coming." Anu said.
"I know, but the question is who, and what are we supposed to do now that we're here?" Atem questioned.
"It has to be something to do with Tara, I know it." Anu said, Atem shook his head.
"I just wish I knew for sure." He said.
"You do know Atem." Came a voice.
"Who said that?" Atem asked standing protectively in front of Anu. A figure slowly appeared in the corner of his room, he had to squint to see it fully.
"Isis?" He asked.
"I can't stay long my prince but I am here to explain your job to you two." She said glancing at Anu who had stood up next to Atem.
"Your right Anu, the girl you met today is Tara." She said.
"I knew it." Anu said under her breath.
"But how is that possible?" Atem asked.
"She's been reincarnated, she's the same person, the bad thing is she doesn't remember much about her past, the memories are there just hidden deep away. It's yours and Anu's job to help her get those memories back." Isis explained.
"Is it important that she does?" Anu asked. Isis nodded her head.
"Tara can't survive long in this world, the reasons aren't clear yet but she does need to get back to our time soon or the consequences could be deadly." Isis said.
"Then we'll work as fast as we can." Anu said. Isis nodded her head and then looked around as if hearing someone coming.
"I must go now my prince, I'll check in later, good luck to both of you." She said, and then disappeared. Anu sighed then flopped back on the bed.
"This should be interesting." She said.
"How are we supposed to make her remember if she doesn't even know who we are?" She questioned.
"I don't know yet, We'll figure it out." Atem said with confidence.
"Well I should get back to my side of town." She said.
"No just stay here, it's dark out, I don't want you walking alone it in this strange city. Besides the bed is huge we'll both fit." He said
"Are you sure?" Anu asked.
"Yes, it's fine." He said.
So on separate sides of the bed they both fell asleep each thinking about the task ahead of them
