Sorry I haven't updated for ages I had a serious case of writers block.
Saharja looked at the faces of her mother. father, uncle and Ardeth they had all aged so much. It was then the true reality of her condition hit her. She was never going to die. They were. They would all die until she would be alone she would have Imhotep andtheier children but her parents and her brother would remain frozen in time merely memories long after their deaths.
"Sara?" her mothers broken sounding voice broke into her thoughts. Her mother grabbed her and held her to her chest crying Sara could do nothing but hug her mother back.
She knew she looked different more dangerous. Maybe even evil. She wasn't evil. Even Imhotep wasn't as bad as he used to be.
"Why?" Evie demanded.
"It's hard to explain I knew I coudn't have both worlds I had to make a choice. I chose you but then I discovered I was pregnant I knew you would reject me so I left. I'm happy here this world is so beautiful." she knew she was rambling but she truthfully didn't know what to say.
"Why did you send your son to destroy us? I trusted you Sara you were like a sister to me." Jessica said.
"I didn't send him to destroy you he couldn't anyway he's only seven years old he was just being curious like children are. He can't hurt you he's not strong enough. " she felt her explinhation was perfectly resonable it was a shame her father didn't think so.
It was Rick's turn now to question his daughter. "So why didn't you let us know you were alive we worried about you. We thought you were dead. Why didn't you say something?" he shouted.
"This is exactly why I never said anything. I knew how you would react" Sara said quietly.
"You married an undead preist who tried to kill us. How did you expect us to react?" he replied.
"I never married him," Sara pointed out.
"Don't make it worse," Alex whispered in her ear.
Taking her brother's advice Sara spoke calmly "I will leave if you wish me to and you need never hear from me again,goodbye." She dissapeared as she had earlier when her true identity had first been revealed leaving her family unsure of how to react.
"Now look what you've done, I suppose I'll have to go looking for her in the desert again," sighed Alex turning to leave.
"No" said Rick firmy "she's made her bed she can lie in it she's betrayed us,"
"But she's our daughter" Evie protested
"No and that's final," Rick stood firm
In the desert Saharja undead queen of eygpt allowed tears to fall for the first time since she had realised she was carrying Hotep and had never felt so alone since that moment. It was the first time she really felt the consequences of her choice.
Thank you for your patience but I would like at least five more reviews before continuing.
