me Hey guys, thanks for the reviews, I really appreciate it. It has
motivated me to do this chapter for you guys. I never meant to add this
part but did anyways. Hope you like it. There may be some errors but I try
my best, sometimes I just don't feel like proofreading. K? Can't think of
chapter names so the titles don't really fit but hope it's ok.
Anyways on with the story.

2 months later: Palace of pharaoh Atem
Isis POV
I sat alone by the window as the rain drips down and I count the droplets as my tears flow. I didn't bother to hold it back this time, it didn't matter anymore. I just let it all flow. It is very and I repeat VERY rare to rain in Egypt but today it did and I think it may be a sign from the gods. I however do not know.
I sit there staring into space trying not to think about him. I cannot bare his name but it keeps on coming back, to the first time I have ever met him.
*Flashback*
It was a sunny day with the sun setting as I got off the carriage and took my first step to the palace grounds. I was only 14 then and was in awe and amazement to see a place so huge.
"I don't got all day you know," came a cold voice, "Hurry up and follow me."
I did not want to but reluctantly obeyed. How I missed my family, especially mother and Marik, why did they have to send me to this strange place. Oh ya I forgot, it was all because of my father's selfish deeds that he planned me to marry the pharaoh. Any girl would have loved for an opportunity like that but I didn't. Why do I have to marry a person I did not even know. I didn't want to get married. At least not yet.
We walked in silence and I looked up at him. Tall, well built with dark brown hair and these cold blue eyes. I shivered, his eyes were so different as if there were many mysteries hidden in them.
"Who are you?" I asked trying to break the ice.
He looked at me with suspicion but answered anyways, "Priest Seth,"
Yes he was Priest Seth but to me more than that. He was the only man I have ever loved and man that took my heart away.
*End Flashback*
I pushed the memory away. Stop thinking about him I warned, don't torture yourself with it but I did. I felt like I had no other choice.
. My thoughts were interrupted by a knock on the door. I quickly dried my tears and answered it.
"Queen Isis," the pharaoh wants to see you.
"Yes," I replied and followed the servant to the pharaoh's chamber.
~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~
"Well, well Isis, how come you seem so pale, are you all right?" the pharaoh asked concerned.
"Yes, my pharaoh," I replied.
"Well then I hope you could bear some news."
My heart fluttered, was it about the war? What happened? Is Seth ok? But I kept my mouth shut.
"It's about the war," he continued. "We are not faring so well against the foreign invaders and they are close to conquering Alexandria. Even though Seth is performing his best, we are out numbered. After they conquer Alexandria, they will probably come here to Thebes, and we cannot let that happen. We have to move out of this palace by tomorrow and head south to a little village where we'll be safe."
"What about them?" I asked nervously, "What are they going to do?"
"I don't know, my queen, I don't know. I cannot send any more forces there for they will be destroyed anyways, they also have to protect us. All we can do is see what destiny provides."
My anger poured. The army of Egypt is being destroyed and all he could think of is how we could be protected? For once in my life I did not believe in destiny or the pharaoh. I have never loved the pharaoh but he was a great ruler. What happened? Did he not care about his people anymore? I wanted to tell him to wake up and be the pharaoh that he once was but I didn't. I couldn't.
All I could manage to say was, "Yes," and walked out.
