2. Chapter 2

Chapter 2

The next morning Evy and Jonathan left to go to some prison to find some guy who gave Jonathan the map while I left to go to work at the museum. The day was slow and no one had come into the museum so Dr. Bey had decided to close the museum early, I spent the day in the library putting away some of the books while I was listening to the radio. I started to dance while I put the books away hoping no one would walk in and see my bad dancing.

ARDETH BAY'S POV

Dr. Bey had sent us word that some librarian and her brother found the map to Hamunaptra so me and 5 other Medjai warriors rode to the museum to learn more about this librarian. When we arrived Dr. Bey ushered us into his office before anyone could see us. "I am glad you came so quickly, Evelyn, the girl who found the map, is out now so she will not disturb us. Evelyn lacks the experiences of an archeologist but she is very smart and knows a great deal about Ancient Egypt, I fear if she and her siblings go to Hamunaptra they will discover the creature and raise it."
"Siblings? You mean this librarian has other siblings besides a brother?" Dr. Bey nodded his head as he got up from his chair and opened the door to his office, "Yes, if would follow me I will show you Evelyn's younger sister, Amirah, she also works at the museum as a librarian." We followed Dr. Bey down the hall to the sound of music, we were on the second level of the museum and the library was on the first so we had a perfect view of the whole library without being seen. Dr. Bey pointed to a short young girl with black hair who was dancing in the middle of the library. "That's her, she is just as smart as Evelyn and half the age to. If Evelyn and her brother do go to Hamunaptra, Amirah will surely follow and if anyone was to find the creature and raise it, it would be her, but Gods be good, that girl is the most innocent girl I have ever met. I practically raised that girl myself, the poor girl has never even had her first kiss, I don't even think a boy has held her hand. After her parents died she isolated herself and didn't talk for years, she is just now starting to come out of that little shell she put herself in." None of said anything after Dr. Bey stopped talking, the girl, Amirah, was still dancing and even singing along to some of the lyrics that she knew. "We could kill her, to make sure that the creature does not rise."
"No!" Dr. Bey and I said at the same time, I didn't say anything but looked at Dr. Bey as he started to rant "you cannot kill her, she is innocent and just a child. She just turned 19 just a few weeks ago, she hasn't experienced the world or anything, all she has ever known is this library." I raised my hand and Dr. Bey stopped talking, "we will not kill the girl." I turned back to watch Amirah dance around the library while the rest of my men and Dr. Bey walked off. Something about this short little girl just drew me in and I wanted to know everything about her, but if this girl and her siblings did go to Hamunaptra and didn't leave, I would be forced to give the order to have them all killed. With that thought I turned and walked off as two people came into the library calling for Amirah.
