Season Three Premiere!
"Episode Fifty-Three"
"Awakening"
"That's not a book," Jilan declares as she looks down at the woman in the sarcophagus.
"Well it's not a mummy either so I guess we're 0 for 2," Taylor points out.
Pizoku's eyes widen as it hits him that he knows who the woman is. "It's Ma'at."
Neah looks over at Pizoku then back down at the woman. "Is it then?"
"Who is Ma'at?" Ashlee asks.
"She's Ma'at," Taylor replies, pointing down.
Ashlee glares. "I will hit you."
"Egyptian goddess of Truth and Justice, married to Thoth, god of Wisdom," Pizoku explains to the confused girl.
"Oh," Ashlee says in comprehension, then frowns at Reese. "This isn't gonna become a Stargate episode, is it?"
"She is remarkably well preserved," Jilan observes, studying the woman.
Reese cocks his head in study. "It's a stasis chamber."
"I think we figured that one out Reese, thanks," Ashlee cracks. Reese sticks out his tongue at her.
"What do we do?" Pizoku asks, looking up at the others, then back down at the woman. He jumps back when her eyes open. "Never mind."
Meanwhile, in Rio de Janeiro
The Wind shifts directions. It happens so suddenly that people stop in the street and look at the sky.
The clouds shift and began to swirl inward over head, covering up the stars and making the early night darker than it was. It is almost as if a hurricane is forming overhead, but staying overhead and not coming down, except on top of the mountain.
She stands and gazes out over the city and shakes her head. Such a place of sin and decadence. There will be only cleansing here, she is sure of that. Which is too bad. The lights are pretty to look at and the music isn't all that bad either.
It's of no consequence, the holy city that will be raised from its ashes will be much better, she decides. Veronica of Nine starts her descent.
