Chapter Four- The Tin Med-jai and the Poisonous Oasis.
Anck stared into her looking pool, as Evy, Alex and Rick got nearer and nearer to the oasis "They've made it this far, but let's see how they like my poisoned oasis" She said to no-one in particular, laughing like a mainiac.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Alex was the first person to see the oasis. They all ran (except Rick, who kinda stumbled a lot. Well, they all stumbled a lot running over the sand) towards the waters and palms in front of them. Rick desided to go in front of them in case any other Anubis warriors were hiding and waiting for them.
He creep closer and closer to the pool in the middle of the oasis, until he tripped over a stick sticking out of a bush. Evy rushed over to him and picked him up. They both looked down at the stick to see it was made of metal, like a sword.
Alex moved the bush out of the way to reveal a man, a Med-jai. Ardeth, only made of tin, even his robes were made of tin. He had his arms down holding the sword, like he was just striking something down. His face was rusted in a battle cry pose.
"Oh my god. How did Ardeth get like this?" Evy cried. Alex looked a great deal round the tin statue of his best friend, upon finding a can of oil in his metal robes. He got it out and started oiling Ardeth's mouth.
"By Allah, what happened?" Shouted the Med-jai leader when his mouth finally got unrusted. Alex explained who everyone was while unrusting the rest of Ardeth's body.
"I was out here defeating Anubis warriors for the near-by Pygmy village for Samantha, when the Wicked Witch sent a rainstorm to rust me up, while her warriors get away" Ardeth explained "I just wish I could repel water or any liquids from my metal body" He sighed sadly.
Evy looked thoughtful for a moment, then told him "We are off to see the Wizard of Hamunaptra, maybe he can grant you your wish when we complete his task" Ardeth smiled at her, and agreed to travel with them as another bodyguard.
Evy then only just realised she was so thirsty, so she went to the pool in the centre of the oasis and took a drink. Her vison then went foggy, and she collasped. "Mom" Alex yelled, while running to her side. Evy's breathing was getting slower and slower "The water must have been poisoned" Ardeth explained "The Wicked Witch?" Asked Rick.
"It must have been. What are we going to do?" Cried Alex, tears running down his face for his fallen mother. Then an idea hit him "We must call for Samantha. She said she'll help us if we call her name really loudly" So all three of them started shouting her name.
A ball of light came from behind the bushes and the shape of a women came from out the light. Samantha looked down at them with sympathy and waved her wand. A small silver bottle came out of thin air, and she puller the stopper out. Then she tipped a few drops into Evy's mouth and disappeared.
Alex, Rick and Ardeth watched in amazement as her breathing went back to its steady pace and her eyes fluttered open. Evy then sat up, blinked once and looked around. "What happened?" She asked "You nearly died, mom from poisoning. But, Samantha saved you with some kind of antidote" Alex cried happily, silently thanking Sam.
When everyone was sure she was alright, they all started off to the next destination.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Anck cursed loudly at her pool and smashed her hand into the waters "Damn Samantha, damn my sister. I wish she could have died with the other two witches"
She stormed out of the room, already planning her next plan.

Next Chapter- Evy and the guys meet Jonathan, the Cowardly Drunk and there is trouble when they get to the pit of Scarabs.
