So I am back with some of your favorite characters. Shout out to those who have checked out the new Avengers story. The harry potter story will continue when I get a chance to watch the second movie. Which will probably be next week. See ya ~C

The camels seem to move extremely slowly. Sapphire remembered that she hated camels. She much preferred the horse. It was faster, and not so painful to ride. She sighed and stretched her arms out. She, Imhotep, and possibly one or two guards were the only ones awake. Everyone else had dozed off.

Sapphire sat on a camel named Edeth with Alex leaning back into her. He was exhausted. Imhotep was riding a camel called Bullseye, supposedly named for his spit pin point accuracy. Ank was fast asleep on another camel and a good distance away. Imhotep steered his camel closer to Sapphire's.

"What is the matter Sapphire?" he asked.

She just looked over at him but didn't respond.

"Ever since you found out who you truly are you have been acing strangely."

"What part did you miss! I am me! My soul never split like Ank's. Im it was me since the beginning." She urged.

"So why are you acting this way!"

She locked eyes with him. "Do you remember when we were twelve, and you told me the saying you lived by?"

"No."

"You told me that we always most be cunning like the cat, brave like the snake, but love with all your heart."

"Now I remember. What of it?"

"Do you love Ank?"

Imhotep seemed to pause for a moment. "Yes, I do. I love her." Sapphire just stared into his eyes.

"If she loved you like you love her, then she shouldn't need the world to be happy. She would just need your embrace." Sapphire looked behind Imhotep before making her camel walk faster. Imhotep looked back to see that Ank had woken up and was making her way to his side. He looked up at the stars and asked the gods to make the path of his heart right. He knew that the gods had no reason to help him though.

By the time they reached the next destination the sun had risen. Sapphire was a lookout while Alex worked on the next breadcrumb. She got distracted when Imhotep walked into the water with his shirt off. She was trying to figure out what he was doing when Lock-Nah pushed her aside and grabbed Alex

"You Weasel!"

"Put him down Lock-nah." Imhotep turned and said. He looked at Alex "I hope your parents enjoyed their trip." Sapphire watched him. He was a good 20 yards away from her. He turned his back and begun raising his hands. The water trembled before it rose up and rushed forward.

"No don't!" Sapphire and Alex yelled as they raced forward. Lock-nah grabbed Alex but Sapphire dogged every guard. She ran as fast as she could through the water as Imhotep's body lurched forward a bit. She jumped and tackled him into the water, landing with a giant splash. When they resurfaced and coughed up water she turned and smacked him. "How many lives is it going to take Imhotep! How many before you remember who you were!" she screamed.

He could not tell if the water lines on her face were from the water or from her own tears. She got up and left him in the water for a moment. As he followed her out Ank approached them. Ank backhanded Sapphire. "Do not lay your filthy hands on him!" she yelled. Imhotep was speechless.

Sapphire on the other hand looked at Ank for a second. Then her fist collided with her jaw. She didn't spare Ank another glance as she approached her camel. She snatched Alex from Lock-nah and placed him on the camel. She climbed up onto it herself next. Ank glared at her but mounted her camel as well.

Night had finally fallen. Sapphire was amazed at the Oasis she found. But one thing ruined the moment. For the sixth time that hour she jumped forward as Lock-nah pinched her butt. He kept pretending to walk back and forth to check on the guards just so he had the opportunity. Sapphire didn't feel like complaining or even talking to Imhotep. She felt as if she lost the boy she once loved.

The walked on for some time more before Imhotep motioned for everyone to stop. Sapphire squinted her eyes towards him and Ank. She saw Ank take a step back and whisper something into Lock-Nahs ear. Whatever she said made the man grin. Sapphire looked side to side. Alex was behind her guarded by a man. There was no way she could get Alex away from him before Lock-Nah reached them. After all he was practically sprinting at this point!

Suddenly men started going down all over the place. What a break! She thought as she ran back to Alex. With one last look to Lock-nah, now 20 feet away, she threw Alex over her shoulder and sprinted into the dense woods. She ran as fast as she could but Lock-nah was gaining. She could vaguely hear someone screaming her name. Suddenly, little creatures were swinging on the vines next to her trying to stab her. "What else could go wrong!" she panted.

Something tackled her from behind and Alex went flying out of her grip. "Alex keep running!" Alex shook his head no. "Get to the pyrimad first! The sun is gunna rise soon." Alex looked back at her before he got up and started running again. Sapphire got turned over and was faceing Lock-nah. "Oh shit."

"Your time has come!" he said as he pulled out a knife and placed it by the sleeves of her clothes. He was once again yanked off of her but this time by Ardeth.

"Ardeth!" she yelled as she stood up.

"Go, help Alex. I will take care of him" Ardeth said as he pointed the blade at Lock-nah's rising form. With a quick thank you she shot off like a bullet in the direction Alex ran. She managed to catch up with not only him, but with Jonathan, Evey and Rick as well.

"You're alright!" Evey yelled leaning for a hug.

Sapphire stopped her and panted out. "Keep…Going…Alex…braclet… off… now!" she managed to gasp out.

"Oh leave it on Alex it looks good on you." John said.

"If I don't get to the Pyramid by sunrise it will kill me!" Alex pleaded. Rick looked at the horizon and saw the sun beginning its accent.

"Rick!" Evey gasped.

They started sprinting through the forest again as they raced the sun. Jonathan got separated from the group. Sapphire looked around but couldn't spot him. Suddenly a little creature knocked her off the path. She got back up and began sprinting in another direction as about 5 little creatures gave chase. Their spears grazed her arms and legs but luckily never punctured her. As she turned she bumped into Johnathan who had about 20 creatures after him. The two glanced back before running even faster thanks to a new wave of adrenaline.

They burst out of the forest to see the other three crossing a log. They followed as Rick threw a stick of dynamite over his shoulder. Sapphire flinched as it exploded. Her chest was burning, her legs became wobbly, and her breathing labored. She was never a long distance runner. She was a sprinter. Her adrenaline was fading. Yet she pushed on, determined to see Alex reach the Pyramid.

Finally it was in sight. Rick had to pick up Alex and run. He left the other in the dust. As the sun's light passed over Sapphire she gave one last prayer that they make it. Of course things couldn't always be easy.

As she and the other two reached the clearing they saw Alex lying in the arms of Rick, both panting and covered in sweat, but both alive. Sapphire laughed in relief as Evey said "they made it!"

Then suddenly Sapphire heard a gasp. When she looked left she found Evey had a knife buried into her stomach. Ank pulled it out and laughed. Sapphire yelled and went to tackle Ank but was stabbed in the shoulder. The knife stayed lodged there and Ank ran into the temple. There was no sign of Imhotep.

Sapphire blinked back tears as she bent over Evey trying to wake her up. Suddenly she was pushed aside by Rick. While Rick held his dying wife a wave of anger flooded her. She stood up and followed Ank into the temple, a mix of water and fire in her vision.
