I have to thank the two people who reviewed. Thanks! 3xinfinity. But anyway, this chapter is more suspenseful than the last. So I hope you like.
Oh, BTW. I forgot to add in the last chapter for like beginning of the story. There might be some false Anciet Egyptian stuff. Or not very accurate. But I did do my best to research the topic, and yeah. I tried. So Im sorry to those who might get mad at some inaccurate stuff. Anyway, Enjoy

"Well, I will be sending some servants to pack your clothing since we are leaving tomorrow morning" Mina's mother said.
Still in awe, Mina walked to the garden. Stroking her tan hand through her dark brown hair. I do not want to go to Egypt. No, No! Ugh, listen to myself. I sound like a 5 year old. Mina argued with her self as she sat down at the edge of the pond. She had to get out...and dress like a commoner, just to think for a while.
Luckily, she had some cloths that she "borrowed" from the servants. She wore black lightweight linen, to cover most her body, a transparent cloth over her head, and a cloth over her mouth and nose, so no one would recognize her.
As she was leaving...
"You there!"
She froze. She knew she couldn't go outside the palace walls. Would the guard recognize her?
"What business have you here?"the guard said.
"I..err..am relative with one of the servants within the palace"she said nervously.
The guard threw her a suspicious look. "...Whom?"
"I uh" She was cut off by another guard.
"The chief wishes to speak with you"
He turned around and said, "I will be right there." and turned back around to see that the girl he was interrogating was gone.
That was seriously close, she thought to herself as she entered the main part of the city.
Looking around to see what the people had for sale. There was all kinds of things. Swords, food, even animals.
Distracted by everything on the market, she didn't realize that there a person in front of her, and was about to collide with her. BAM. She had hit the figure and she had fallen to the ground, and rubbed her head. She looked up to see who it was she had collided with.
She couldn't really see the face, but you could tell it was a boy. He was face was hidden by a hood. He held out his hand to help her up. She grabbed it as she looked up to see if she could make out the face hidden under the hood. Unfortunately, she didn't succeed.
"Ay..uh" She stuttered, then looked up. "Thanks."
He grinned. She couldn't put her finger on it, but something about that seemed somehow familiar, and attractive.
Oh come on. You're not seriously thinking that this stranger is attractive.
She smiled back, and walked off. As she did, he turned too, towards the sun, and she saw, by the corner of her eye, that he had crimson eyes.
Then, she thought, Could it be? She turned around, and there was no one there in a hood. No possible way. She looked back, but he was gone. Hmm. And continued on browsing.
