Chapter 3: "Merry's going to be just fine a rather large headach but alright for now." said Merry walking up behind Amelia. Nefret smiled. "That's good now isn't it?" she asked walking into the room. "Excuse me... Mrs. Emerson? There is a man at the door for you." said Rose walking up to Amelia. "Thank you Rose, now if you could... please go and help the others in trying to clean up the sitting room, I am putting you in charge of that." said Amelia. Rose nodded and walked away. Amelia rushed down the stairs wondering who it could be at this hour. "Can I help you sir?" asked Amelia once she got to the door. "Perhaps Ma'am, I have come to the belief that my sister Merideth is here." said the man with curly borwn hair in a rain coat. "Yes, she is... would you like me to get her mister..." replied Amelia. He nodded yes in responce. "Excuse me for a moment." she said walking back up the stairs to the bedroom Merry and Nefret were in. "Let me guess, someones here to take me away?" said Merry in an anoyed voice as she got up and headed for the door. Amelia nodded. "What do you mean?" asked Nefret following Merry out of the room. "Seth... is that you?" asked Merry with excitment in her voice as she walked down the stairs. Seth looked up at Merry and smiled. "What... have I been away to long for your liking?" asked Seth in responce. Merry went over and gave her brother a hug. "What do you think! I have been waiting for you to come back for like... almost a year now. Where have you been?!" asked Merry letting her brother go. "Well, my father needed more help over in Egypt than he let mother onto believing." said Seth. "Nefret, Mrs. Emerson, Ramses this is my brother, Seth. Seth is my step-brother... I was adopted. Seth here has been away in Egypt for the last year with his father, leaving myself and my mother to manage seven of my brothers and my one sister." said Merry. "Oh really, and what praytell does your father do?" asked Amelia studying Seth as he looked familliar in some strange way. "I myself have absolutly no idea but I am sure Sethos here does..." said Merry using her nickname for her brother. Amelia let out a small gasp and Emerson came storming out of his study. "I thought I told everyone that the name Sethos was never to be used in this household ever!" he thundered. "It twas just a nickname tis all Sir... I got it from my step-father's name." said Merry trying to correct herself but just making matters worse. "Lets get going, NOW." said Seth draging Merry out of the house. "Farwell Nefret. I doubt we shall see each other soon." said Merry getting into the carrage. "Well this is just wonderful." said Emerson walking briskly back to his study. "Nefret, I am not sure we can trust the girl." said Amelia, Nefret looked hurt. "But why Aunt Amelia? Just because her father is someone whom you have had a bad expearence with doesn't mean his spouse will." said Nefret countered. "Nefret does have a good argument there Mama." said Ramses taking Nefret's side, for reasons only he would know... for now anyways. "I will go and talk to Emerson... but I wouldn't count on it." said Amelia walking over to Emerson's study where much cursing and banging was being heard. "I know why you took my side Ramses... you like her don't you?" teased Nefret as the two walked up to their rooms. Ramses blushed. "That is not true, I only took your side because I felt as though you were right Nefret. Though I too know why you want to see Merry again... you like Seth do you not?" replied Ramses. Nefret blushed profously. "How dare you accuse me of such things Ramses! I only stood up for what I know is right. Now good night." said Nefret walking into her room and slaming it. Ramses smiled at his accomplishment. Before Ramses walked into his room, Amelia walked up to him. "Ramses, your father and I are taking a trip to Egypt so Emerson can let off some steam about this little incident tonight, a bit like second honeymoon to be precice. You and Nefret will be staying with Walter and Evelyn while we are away. So go a pack now." she said. Ramses was about to protest about why he couldn't come with them but shut his mouth and went to pack. Amelia went and told Nefret the same thing and within a week, they were off. AT THE DOCK: "I do wish that you would allow Ramses and myself to join you Aunt Amelia." said Nefret as Amelia and Emerson boarded their ship.
"Because my dear girl, you will be needed here more than at the dig... we are searching for Nefretiti's tomb this time. Good bye and be good." said Amelia.
"Good-bye Aunt Amelia and good luck as well." said Nefret waving a farwell to Them both. Little did they know but someone else had been listening to them the entire time.... someone who was not going to use this information for the greater good...
