Goddess: Well, we're back. I'm here, eating one of my favorite snacks, as I consider what to do next in my story. I've written much further than the chapters I've got up, and I'm to a point where the Nameless One is in the camp after a battle, and cannot disappear. Mmmmm Barbeque Corn Nuts!

Ardeth Bay.
The woman was some sort of God, or the child of one. The pain in my hand had diminished, but other pains, feelings, had not. I cursed myself inwardly for these. As a Medjai I could not allow such things to surface. They would be turned on me, they would be a weapon in the hands of an enemy. The gaze she had given me brought them forth, and it was difficult to place them where I had locked them away. She helped me to my feet, talking and explaining. Such strength in such a slight frame, but she was a Goddess after all.
She told me of the current plight my companions had gotten into, and I smiled grimly. They were safe, they had the book and the creature would soon be back in his grave. We were to fight our way out of the maze that was the city. No matter what, now was the crucial moment, and I was spending it fighting upwards, and away from the creature.
I watched her fight, as lithe and agile as a great cat. She fought like a Medjai, but it was much more than that, a dance. It was mesmerizing to watch a woman fight like she did. She used the weapon she had found among other things in the tombs. I watched lithe muscles tighten and release like a snake springing. I might have watched her, entranced by the eerie dance she performed, had I the chance to do so. But it was battle, and I would not let a woman fight in my stead.
Now I watched as the sands took the city. She kissed my forehead, leaving a strange sensation there. She began walking back into the tomb of the creature. I was surprised by her actions that I froze for a moment. Then I called out to her the danger of remaining there, forgetting that she was not human.
"Until next we meet, my Medjai." She said.
Her words echoed along the halls, as she faded into the shadows of the torchlight. The city shook once more, and I heard laughter echo along with it, her laughter. I walked into the light, and away from the city as the desert took it. I went to one of the few camels still at the city. I waited there for my companions to come forth from the city, the memory of her fading, until only her eyes would haunt my dreams.
"You have earned the respect and gratitude of me and my people. May Allah smile upon you." I said, giving them a blessing before I turned the camel and left. I had startled Jonathan, and would not let them see me smiling.
Goddess: A tad short, but I'd rather not put the Goddess's perspective with his, since hers is much longer, and I don't really have a good place to break it down. But I'll be writing that one as well in a moment..as I sit and much my corn nuts, and drink Dr Pepper... and read Doctor Who fan fiction...
thank ye sara meep.. and yes I will be bringing her into the mummy returns. This fic spans the two.. I guess I forgot to mention that huh? It starts at the end of the first, and goes through what happens between then and the second. If it gets too long, I'll make a sequel. thanks again...
