[Last time]...Atemu, I'm so sorry... Ra has given me this sign so many times already, I should have told you... you cried, as your tears got mingled with sparkling water of the fountain, your heart was filled with guilt and sadness. "I'm so sorry..."

Starting with Your POV:
A whole week passed by without even being aware of it. It has been a week, since the Queen died, yet it felt like it just happened yesterday. You could recall the dark-colored sky perfectly and you're still blaming yourself for not telling Atemu. You remembered yourself the funeral of the Queen.

[Flashback] You were walking towards the place where the funeral of the Queen was held. You weren't allowed to enter the ceremony, but you were close enough to see it all. The Queen was dressed into a beautiful dress. It almost felt like she was only sleeping, though your mind knew she wasn't. Pharaoh Akunumkanon was kneeling in front of her on the ground and so was... Atemu, while tears filled their eyes. The feeling of sadness filled the air of Egypt. You haven't known the Queen in person, but somehow tears continued to stream down your cheek. Looking at Atemu, made you feel even worse. He has just lost someone close with him, someone very close... [End Flashback]

As you were walking through the corridors with your head down, you remembered yourself the day... the day your father left you. You remembered perfectly the way his hand slipped out of your hands, while his eyes slowly closed, never be opened again. Tears welled up in your eyes, as that memory flood inside your mind. You dropped onto your knees, while crying softly.

Since that day everything had changed. Your brother was forced to take over your father's place and to take care of the family. Due to all his working, he got a terrible disease. As far as you could remember, he could barely stand on his feet, let alone walk. For the sake of your brother's health, your mother was forced to sell you. Just at that time, there was an Egyptian, who was willing to pay for the treatment of your brother's. Soon after that, you left Ethiopia and went to Egypt along with your former master. You were scared at first, but soon you realized there was no need to. He treated you well, but somehow you did feel lonely. The feeling of being that far away from your home, made you feel worse most of the time.

You looked around you. Egypt... you thought. Here in Egypt, here I've met my best friend, Sandy, and here in Egypt I've also met the one I love... Atemu, you thought, smiling. "Egypt now, is my homeland." you said, while getting back on your feet. "I won't be alone anymore, neither will I leave this place. Here is where I belong, here is my home, I won't leave my home again... I won't leave the ones I love again!" you said determined.

Smiling to your own foolishness, you furthered your way. You remembered yourself the day you were asked to leave Atemu. You could recall perfectly what you had said that day: "I am not a WHORE! I love Atemu! Not his WEALTH!!" Thinking about it, you just can't believe you honestly said that to the Pharaoh.
I really love Atemu... that's why I can't leave him now, that's why I have to stay here, that's why I will always be by his side, no matter what... you thought. After you had made up your mind, you started to feel relieved.

Simon's POV:
You were reading some papyrus scrolls in the royal library, when you read something shocking. Your eyes widened, as you were reading the same sentence over again. This can't be true, you thought. There stated: "The prophecy of destruction shall soon be fulfilled, when Ra is consumed by darkness."

You could remember faintly the contents of 'The prophecy of Destruction'. It was written by a high priest thousands of years ago. It was said that this man was no ordinary man. Some said he was sent by Ra, in order to warn us for the dangers in the future. But others claimed he was nothing but a cheater. Soon, after he had written 'The prophecy of Destruction', he was accused of high treason and regarded as a threat for the state. Therefore, he was sentenced to death, but his works were conserved in the royal library. "Ra being consumed by darkness, could that be... that day, the day the Queen left..." you muttered. You stood up and went to search for 'The prophecy of Destruction'. It must be lying here somewhere.

You were looking for hours, but still it was nowhere to be seen. You sighed to that. Maybe, I'm just thinking too much, you thought. You went back to your other papyrus scrolls and began to read them, but it was no use. You couldn't forget those words: "The prophecy of Destruction shall soon be fulfilled, when Ra is consumed by darkness." You leaned back on your chair and closed your eyes for a moment.

"I'm just getting old, I should not been thinking too much." you said to yourself, when suddenly a papyrus scroll on the top of a bookcase caught your eyes. You tried to ignore it, but the image of that certain scroll kept haunting you. Finally, you stood up. "It's probably nothing as always, but just for sure then." you said.

You tried to reach its top, but you didn't get high enough. You sighed in frustration, then you tried it one more time. Suddenly, you heard someone coming into the room. You turned to see it was a girl. She looks quite familiar, you thought.

"May I help you, sir?" she asked you politely bowing respectfully. You stared at her suspiciously, but she simply smiled. She took the papyrus scroll from the top of the bookcase and with her hand she simply dusted it off for you. "I guess, you were trying to get this papyrus scroll?" she said, while giving you the same kind face. Smiling she handed it to you. "Thank you." you said a bit puzzled. You turned your eyes to the papyrus scroll, looking at it for a moment. Somehow, you got a bad feeling about this. The girl bowed to you respectfully, then left without another word...

You opened the scroll, while reading: The Prophecy of Destruction!!!
