"And for 3000 years… We, the Meji, the descendants of Pharaoh's sacred bodyguards, kept watch."
1925
There we were me, Rick and our buddy Beni. Getting ready to shoot, I got my rifle ready. We turned our head and saw the Legionnaire Colonel panic; he turns his horse to run away. Beni turns to my brother, "You just got promoted." We both just rolled our eyes, Rick shouted in French "premez vos positions!"
We saw them coming closer "Steady!" Got my rifle ready. Rick turns to Beni, "you're with me on this one, right?" Beni says in a nervous tone "Oh. Your strength gives me strength." I just roll my eyes; Rick turns to me about to ask the same question. I shut him up before he even asks "you know I'm with you all the way!"
He smiles at me, I wink at him getting back to aim. He shouts an order again "Steady!" Beni picks up his gun and runs away, shouting "wait! Wait for me!" I just look back at Rick told him straight, "I know now why I didn't like him!"
Steadying my rifle. Rick shouts "steady" once again. Right at that moment everything slows down soon as Rick shouts "FIRE!" Guns started blazing. Me and Rick were side by side shooting people that were coming near us.
We started to run soon as they come through while shooting. Getting attacked right, left and centre. Rick was getting attacked; he hit him with the bud of his gun. We run out of bullets, both grabbed our pistols. We started shooting again.
Soon as we got to the top jumped over a fallen column, saw Beni still running. Both shouting at him, "Run, Beni! Run!" Rick shouted at him, "Get inside! Get inside!" Beni got through a door, we saw him looking back at us. We both knew what he was about to do. "Hey! Don't you close that door!" He repeated again, "Don't you close that door!" Rick was going to kill him!
Both out of breath saw more of the enemy coming towards us. He grabbed my hand to pull us away, started running again. We both jumped over a column that was on the floor. Rick rolled over while I landed on my feet. Still getting chased. I told Rick "If we get out of here, I'm going to kill you!" We ended up running into a dead end. Looked at each other, slowly turning around. Getting ready to be shot. Closing our eyes, ready for the pain of the bullets.
We just heard the horses and men getting scared and running away. We slowly opened our eyes, just saw dust from where they were. I took a deep breath, I turned to Rick but he was more focused on the statue. We then heard a noise, getting a bit freaked out. It had to make it worse with the sand starting to go crazy over us. We both started to run out of Hamnunaptra.
Exhausted, I took Rick's hand in mine. I saw Rick looking up towards the hill. There were at least 10 men on horses, all in black. I just dragged my brother away. "Let's go Rick, I want to go. Get away from this place." Rick nodded.
