(Deedee and Ayeka are sisters that have one year in between them and go all postal on each other when they do. Ayeka is Amelia's present self, so, basically, Amelia is Ayeka's past self from the staff. Deedee has a past self as well, but you'll see her later on in the story.)
Amelia: HI!
Deedee: Well aren't we perky… why? * eyes Amelia suspiciously *
Amelia: Oh nothing, I think this is one of my favorite chapters.
Deedee: * reads chapter * OhmiRa! You didn't!
Amelia: I did.
Deedee: Tell Me! How was it?
Amelia: I'll never tell…
Deedee: Fine, I'll get someone else to tell me. * has evil look in her eye *
Amelia: Who?
Deedee: I'll never tell…
Amelia: Fine… like I care… * pouts *
Deedee: Enjoy!

~*~End of Flashback~*~
"I ended up in front of the Pharaoh the next day and he asked me to be the head leader of his secret army. What did I say?! YES! I had to say yes to that lazy butt! And that was 3 years ago! 17 and still working for him. Hunting down and stopping thieves, gangs, and the black trade, where ever I find it. I should quit! I would quit, * sigh * if only that Priest of his, Seto, wasn't there. So caring, so sweet, so soft…"
~*~Flashback~*~
As Amelia woke up, she looked around the room she was in. As she sits up, she realizes that there was another in the room.
"What happened?" She asked the person.
"You blacked out after you used that airy blast to save yourself." The mysterious person replied.
"Sorry to ask, but who are you?"
"I am Priest Seto." As he walked into the light, she could tell that she was telling the truth. She could also tell that he was gorgeous.
"How did I get here?"
"I carried you. Once I sensed you got the staff, I had to bring you back here straight away, before others could sense your power."
"What others?"
"No one…"
"You lie."
"It is of no concern to you."
"One would want me to think. I am in no mood for mind games right now anyways… So, you carried me?" She asked as her cheeks turned a slight shade of red.
"Yes, why?"
"Wasn't I heavy?"
"Not really."
"Oh." As she looked down, she realized that her clothes were different. "And what happened to my clothes?"
"I changed you."
"YOU!? As in, you and your hands?!"
"Yes, why?"
"No… nothing…" Amelia was able to squeak out of amazement.
"There's nothing wrong with you, if that's what you're thinking. Trust me, I've seen worse." After he said that, he came and sat on the side of the bed Amelia was lying in. He turned to face her.
"Really?" She got out before blushing so red that her heart was racing.
"Really." With that, he leaned in and whispered, "Would you mind if I kissed you?"
"No." She said as she pulled his lips towards hers…
~*~End of Flashback~*~
" * sigh * Brown hair, blue eyes and tall. Not only that, a great kisser and more." With Seto on her mind, her pace quickened, eager to get back to her Seto.
Filled with giddiness at the thought of Seto, she accidentally dropped her defenses. For that one moment, someone appeared behind her and knocked her out.
~*~At Pharaoh's Palace~*~
"AH! Where is she?" Priest Seto asked in an outraged voice, " I told you not to send her to fight them!"
"Calm down, I know she is the woman that can do the job I asked her to do better than any man." The Pharaoh replied.
"I can't stay here and wait any longer. If this is some kind of test to prove Amelia's faith to you, I'm going to help her cheat!" With that, Seto turned on his heel and began to storm out.
"Hold it right there!" Atem's voice boomed throughout the hall. "You go nowhere. The tauk sensed that this would happen. Isis came two hours earlier and told me. No outside help, or there will be loses, and those loses will be on our side. I can't afford to lose either of you."
Seto paused at the door, breath held in. Hearing Atem's comments and knowing that Isis was never wrong on the tauk's visions; his shoulders slumped and his eyes began to fill with tears.
"I know you've learned to love her," Atem's voice continued, "but sometimes love must contain trust and learning. Right now, Amelia needs you to trust her and she needs to learn about herself."
"I understand." Seto finally replied after a few minutes. "I'll go make an offering to Ra to help her."
"That'll be all you can do. To make sure of that, you'll have a follower with you at all times. Malik…"
Out of the shadows, the pyramid keeper appeared. "You called?" he asked.
"I need you to trail the Priest at all times. Report to me if it seems like he is up to something in order to try to save Amelia." Atem ordered.
"Yes my Pharaoh." With that said, Malik went to Seto's side and stopped.
With a sigh, "Do you really think that that is necessary?" Seto asked.
"Yes was Atem's only reply.
After a few more moments passed, Seto finally gave in and turned to Malik. "Come, let's go make an offering to Ra." He said to the grave keeper, and exited with Malik at his heels.

Amelia: So… how'd you like it?
Ayeka: I didn't like it.
Deedee: Why not?
Ayeka: I wasn't IN IT!
Amelia: Duh! You weren't even born yet.
Ayeka: So?
Deedee: So, you can be in it if you don't even exist stupid.
Amelia: See? Besides, it is about me…
Ayeka: Well… * thinks of nothing *
Deedee: * stifles a giggle *
Amelia: * smirks *
Ayeka: FINE! * sulks and walks off *
Amelia and Deedee: Until next time!
