Chapter 2
Serenity groaned loudly as she attempted to stand, Where am I? She thought her head pounding, it was cold. Unbearably so... Clenching her hands into the ground she felt it sift through her fingers. The moon shone brightly full above, its view uninhibited by the pollution that was usually present.
She gasped at the large sand dunes covering the landscape, "Oh, my..." Her words seemed to escape her as she on looked the sight before her. Desert as far as her eyes could see, she felt Goosebumps appear on her arms as she wrapped them around her chest. A light dry breeze blew by ruffling her hair a little.
"Ah so you are finally awake?" The accent was so thick she could barely understand what was being said. Whirling around she came face to face with a bedraggled campsite; small tents made of some type of fur were hastily pitched. A loud bellow emitted to her right where five camels where tethered to one of the tents.
A fire in the middle jetted out sparks that were obliterated in the night air. "Where am I?" She asked quietly her eyes widening as she heard her self speak in another language, What is going on here! This has to be a nightmare, yeah. Any minute Joey's going to come in and wake me up.
The man in the middle gave a harsh laugh, "How can you not know where you are?" The language was getting clearer, It was like she had heard it before... The man next to him brought up a long stem pipe and inhaled deeply, watching her with calculating eyes. "You my dear are in the Sahara Desert. On the outskirts of Kul Elna."
"Kul Elna..." She didn't understand it, Why is that name so familiar.
The three men sat watching her, waiting for her to make her next move.
The middle man continued, "A lowly woman in the middle of the Sahara during theKhamsins? Please sit down..." With that he waved out a cloaked arm gesturing towards the empty place at the fire.
A little twitter went off in her stomach, something wasn't right here. "Um, not to be rude, but I have business in Kul Elna."
The man on the right gave a smirk showing three missing teeth, "Yes, I'm sure you do..."
The bulkier man on the left who hadn't said anything yet stood up fast. Serenity felt her knees buckle, her heart pounding in her ears as her adrenaline began to rush. "Please, I d..don't want any trouble." she heard her self say as she backed up a step or two.
BAM! All of the sudden a huge fireball erupted from the nearby city an explosion of such a great magnitude that the ground shook. A chilling scream pierced the night air as Serenity ran forward seeing this as her chance of escaping.
She heard a string of curses behind her and panicked movement, Oh god there after me! What did I do? Turning she saw that instead of following her towards the city they were in a rapid retreat farther of into the desert.
"I don't understand…" A strong heat was felt against her back as she glanced down to the burning city below. Horror-stricken she watched as hundreds of men marched towards the city swords drawn and ready for take over. Smoke from the burning buildings clogged up her vision. As screams took precedence over the silence, the army flowing into the city and wiping out any trace of life. Men, women, children, it didn't matter to them.
Annihilation is what they were sent out for, and that was what they were here to achieve.
Serenity looked on as if in a daze she could barely feel the trickle of tears that drift down her face.
People were trying to escape towards the desert, in her direction. She felt her throat seize with panic, nowhere to go now. I can't be the only one who was sent to this time! I just can't!
She watched as groups of horses began to flee some with or with out riders.
Scanning the area frantically for a familiar face, THERE! Could it be? her eyes widening in shock saw a rider coming from her side ready to pass her, There skin paler than any one else's. Black robes draped on them so seeing there face was impossible, Silver white hair barely peaking out of the cloak.
Before she could think about it or even stop her self she screamed, "BAKURA!"
The rider gripping the reins hard, the horse brayed in protest swinging around to face her. Rearing up the rider held tight landing the animal beside her.
Serenity gasped in surprise she had been right, a large scar went down the right side of his cheek. At the sight of her his eyes went wide with surprise, shock. He quickly concealed it as anger overflowed him. "YOU!"
