HHHHIIII! It's Ajluv! Hurry up and read! A lot of good stuff to come in this chapter!
When Natalie woke up, her vision was blurred with green and splotched with tan. "Ugh." She groaned, pulling herself up looking drowsily up at the concerned faces of her friends and fellow SIBUNA members.
" What happened?" She moaned as Alfie and KT helped her up so she could stand next to Nina and Eddie. She shoved a wayward curl from her forehead and glanced around the circle, looking specifically at Nina, who was under Fabians arm and gaze and Eddie.
Patricia bit her lip and shared a look with the obviously shaken up KT and Alfie. Something curled and twisted in Natalie's gut, and she blinked fast, trying to keep back the short memory of Patricia's harsh words.
"Something happened." Patricia spoke nervously from Eddies side. "No, duh." Natalie replied for the trio. Patricia didn't laugh, cringing instead. "It seems we attracted another spirit." She said slowly. " it's like we have a beacon on our heads calling for angry, creepy spirits." Alfie muttered. KT broke and started explaining the rest.
" After you ran out, Natalie, we followed you here. However when we arrived, there was someone here. Controlling you." Fabian and Patricia winced at that word causing their designated other half to pull them closer. Natalie tried to remembers face or a voice, but she could only remember a few random clippings of a dream.
Alfie broke in next and continued the story. " Then a really creepy lady showed up and started rambling about a trio and power and how she wasn't going to fail."
Patricia finished the tale, leaving the rest of SIBUNA in silence. " Then she just smiled and said something about the shortest path of Ra." They studied each others faces, while Natalie tried hard to remember what the broken pieces of her dream were about. Then suddenly, she was swept into the memory.
The young girl swept along the terrace, a cool oasis from the midday sun. She nodded at the servants lined along the pillars of stone with fans for cooling the gods. These were the most faithful and loyal servants, receiving their reward for their pious life. She slowly walked up to the figure of a strong and sturdy man, holding her hands out in front of her in a welcoming manner.
" Osiris, my lord brother." The man turned around from gazing at Ra and looked with interest at the sound of the voice. "Serket, my dear sister and lady." He smiled down at her, his vibrant blue and green eyes smiling along with him. " you have come from council with Sekhmet?" She inquired once they had formally bowed and embraced. Osiris sighed and nodded, gazing once more toward the horizon of Egypt from the palace of the gods. " I fear of war and suffering for the servants of Egypt." He sighed once more, showing his discomfort and restlessness. " My brother is a peaceful man, not one that seeks war." Serket replied, gazing up at her favorite brother.
He smiled down at her. " My sister is a wise and beautiful young woman." This comment reminded her of her duty. " I have come, with the blessing of Isis, with a plan to save Egypt." She then formed a triangle with her tan and delicate hands and held it close to her face. "The trio can save our land from the dark one." She continued softly. Holding out her bracelets, gesturing toward Osiris's staff, and looking meaningfully toward the temples. "You, sister, me, and my lover Amneris." Her brother realized at last. "To save Egypt, my lord." She replied, glancing down at her sandled feet, decorated with gold and gems. " To save Egypt." He replied, smiling down at her. They parted ways, Osiris hurrying off to where Amneris chanted praises to the gods.
Serket heard a hissing sound, once her brother had left the terrace. She walked to the side, seeing the poisonous snake. "Little Adder." She greeted, holding a hand out for the snake to slither on to. The snake complied and together they watched the sun god Ra rise over the jewel called Egypt, with hope in their eyes and their hearts.
Well, I hope you enjoyed that. I think in a couple chapters, I will try to get some house bonding. What do you think? Anyway, I am TIRED, so PLEASE review and I will see you in the morning.
