Where did you come from?

'Tell me child, what is your name?' the man asked. ' I'm Zoe, sir. Please could you tell me where I am.' Zoe asked scared. 'Well you're in Egypt of course. Where else could you be?' the boy answered. The pharaoh was looking mad at him and the boy lowered his head. ' Sorry father.'

' But that can't be. Well, I was in Egypt, but I was in the empty dessert looking for some ancient ruins' she said stunned. ' What year is little girl' he asked.

' It's the year 1998 of course, at least I think it is.' The pharaoh looked amazed at the girl. She was still very young, not older then his own son and yet she was dressed in the strangest cloths ever seen. She wore a dress with no arms and under that she wore a short pants. Her hair was shoulder length brown and she had strange green blue eyes.

' Where you are now it is not that year. We live in the time that pharaoh Akunumkanon rules Egypt' the boy said amazed.

' What that can't be! Akunumkanon ruled Egypt almost 3000 years ago! That means that I some how got back in time and stranded somewhere in ancient Egypt!' Zoe panicked. And after that she fainted.

'Wake up… wake up… WAKE UP!!!!' a voice screamed. 'aah what – what happened? Where am I ?' Zoe asked confused. 'Am I still in ancient Egypt?' 'Yes, you are. My father asked you to come to him when you wake up, the priests have found out how this time traveling is working. So if you're ready you have to come with me.' As wondered as she was Zoe followed the boy into the same great chamber where she was yesterday, to the same throne and same man with his (what she now know what they were) six priests.

'Ah, you've woken up young one. Do you want some thing to eat or should I just start right away with our new discoveries?' the pharaoh asked friendly. 'No, thanks I'm not hungry. I just wanna go home. I didn't want to scare you. I didn't want to come here on purpose. I just want to go home and forget all of this' she almost cried. ' Yes, about you going home… that may not be possible…'an old man answered. At the moment he was saying that Zoe looked at him with tears in her eyes and she wasn't to far from crying.

'But… you can go home in a month or two. Then the moon will be in the right position and the time portal you probably came through in the first place will appear in the same place where you woke up yesterday' the priest said.

' That means that I have to stay here till the portal appears, over two months?!!' she almost cried.

'Yes. And in the mean time you will stay here in the palace. Your name will be… Zoëna and if anybody asks where you came from, you'll say you're a princess from the north visiting our country' the pharaoh said. Then he called two servants and ordered them to make some cloths for Zoe. Then he said; 'my son, Atem, will guide through there months. He will help you and teach you our rules. Now go and make yourself comfortable.

Zoe, now called Zoëna was still to confused. Time traveling, time portals, when the moon is in position? What are they all talking about? Do they want to say that I've traveled 3000 years back in time, back to ancient Egypt? She thought.

Later that day when Zoe just looked like everyone in the palace, the boy, now known as Atem, asked her if he should give her a tour through the palace.

' Um I-I- I don't really know how to behave against a prince or a pharaoh. Should I bow every time I speak or shouldn't I do anything?' the girl asked confused

' Hehehe, no everybody thinks you're a princess so we can just speak normal to each other. Now tell me, what's new in the future?' Atem asked curious.

'I don't really know if I can tell. I'd rather not talk about it' Zoe said wile looking down to the golden floor.

'Prince how are you doing? Huh, who's your friend, prince?' a white haired girl asked. She didn't seem much older then Atem and herself, yet she acted like a grown up.

Who is that girl? She looks like someone who comes from the north. She even has a lighter colored skin then me! Zoe thought.
