13 Sanura stood looking down at the two the young ladies, and a small
14 smile came to her face. She looked over to the Pharaoh's daughter,
15 walked over to her, bent down, and shook her gently to rouse her.
16 "Princess, can you hear me? Princess?"
17 Ramla open her eyes a little and saw a young woman about her age
18 next to her. She was looking at her and then over her to something
19 else. Ramla turned over a little and saw Nakia lying on her side with
20 her eyes closed. Ramla's eyes widened in shock and fear.
21 Sanura could clearly see the fear in her eyes, so she reached out
22 to comfort the girl, but before she could say anything Ramla got up
23 very fast and ran over to her friend, who was still unconscious.
24 "Nakia! Are you alright? Can you hear me? Please wake up! Nakia?
25 Nakia?" she yelled in panic as she reached out and shook her friend.
26 Nakia opened her eyes to see Ramla next to her, her strange red eyes
27 overflowing with tears.
28 "Is she crying?" she thought: Ramla's eyes looked so sad, she
29 couldn't bear it. "I'm fine, Ramla, so please don't cry" she smiled,
30 reaching out and brushing the tears from the other girl's face.
31 Sanura just watched the two: she then turned her head to the phoenix
32 and saw it doing a little dance: well it looked like a dance to her.
33 She started to giggle slightly in amusment at the phoenix's antics.
34
35 Ramla and Nakia heard someone giggle, turned there heads to see the
36 young woman that woke Ramla giggling at the phoenix: both girl's eyes
37 flashed white just as lighting hit the ground somewhere out side.
38 Their eyes went back to normal. They looked at one and other and back
39 to the bird, and woman.
40 Sanura saw the young ladies looking at her and the phoenix. She
41 stopped giggling and walked over to them, then bowed down to her
42 Princess.
43 "Good evening Princess, my name is Priestess Sanura, I am here to
44 help you along with Ra's phoenix. I believe that you have meet it
45 before," she said, looking up at them.
46 Ramla looked into her eyes and could tell that she was friendly. She
47 smiled and looked over to her dark haired friend. She saw that Nakia
48 was a little worried about something.
49 "Nakia, are you alright?.... you seem a little sad."
50 "I'm fine, Ramla, I just trying to take all this in" she sighed as
51 she sat down. The Phoenix hopped over to her and sat on her lap. She
52 smiled at the bird and started to pet it.
53 Sanura got up, walked over to one of the golden bowls and waved her
54 hand. In a fraction of a second a fire had come to life. Then she
55 went to the others and repeated the process.
56 "There, nice and warm," she said walking back over to them.
57 "I think it would help, if we have a place for you to stay while
58 you're here Nakia. We should also talk to your mother, Princess;
59 after all, she cannot become part of your serving or guard without
60 your parent's approval, can she?"
61 "I believe that is a good idea, Sanura" replied Ramla turning her
62 head to the Priestess and then back to Nakia. She saw her dark haired
63 friend nod at her and went back to the Phoenix in her lap.
64 Ramla smiled, got up, walked over to her cat, picked it up and
65 started to pet it.
66 "Well have to wait for the eye of the storm to pass before we can
67 walk over to the palace in safety," the Priestess as she stared in
68 worry out of the window.
69 Ramla walked back over to Nakia and sat next to her.
70 "So Nakia, what would you like to talk about? I really don't know
71 you; I would love to know you better. If you don't mind, that is…"
72 she asked with a little smile. She was little worried that she would
73 wanted to talk to her, or stay her with her. She felt that she needs
74 her and didn't know why.
75 Nakia looked up and saw something in her new friend's eyes that made
76 her feel, well, she couldn't really tell what kind of feeling it was,
77 but she knew that if she was going to help she was going to know a
78 lot of things.
79 "What would you like to know Ramla?" Nakia replied with a smile.
80 Ramla's heart jumped when she saw that smile; she could die now and
81 she wouldn't care, for if she did she was going to die in sheer bliss.
82 "Let me see...oh, how old are you?"
83 "I'm sixteen, you?"
84 "I'm going to be sixteen in three days" she replied in a sad voice.
85 Nakia looked at her and could tell there was something wrong with
86 this. She looked over to the Priestess and saw she was thinking the
87 same thing.
88 "Ramla, I have a feeling that you need tell us something. You know
89 that we can only help you if we know what is going on." Sanura said,
90 walking back over to them with a kind smile on her face, where she
91 stopped and sat down across from them.
92 Ramla nodded and turned to Nakia who wore the same, calm expression
93 as Sanura, but her eyes told her a different story: her eyes were
94 dark, distant, broken. Ramla was very worried, and hope that she
95 could help. With that she nodded and began to explain the situation.
96 "I have to marry the High Priest of God Anubis on my birthday,"
97 Ramla sighed. "My father believes that he is right for me, and will
98 rule his kingdom in a fair and just way after my father's death. For
99 along time I have been having this feeling that something isn't right
100 about him."
101 "Your father or the high priest?" asked Nakia
102 "The high priest; his eyes tell me he is up to something; they're so
103 unnaturally pale… like a substance colder than anything ever to be
104 found in this kingdom; colder than the great river on a desert night…
105 It's as though he can see right into your thoughts; your emotions:
106 your soul to find your deepest secrets and use them to manipulate
107 you.
108 "Also there is nothing genuine about him. I have watched how he
109 treats those that are lower down the hierarchy than him, and let me
110 tell you, I feel sorry for them. He is so unimaginabley cruel to the
111 slaves that it makes me sick to think about it… But when he is with
112 me, or my mother and father he appears to be the nicest man you could
113 ever meet. I knew that he is not the right person for me, or for the
114 good of this kingdom. You have to believe me," she told them, hoping
115 they would understand.
116 Ra's pet jumped up and walk over to her and bow to her. Then walked
117 back over to Nakia and lay down in her lap.
118 "Well, it looks like she believes you, Princess, and I knew that I
119 feel the same way about him, and so I trust you and believe you,"
120 answered Sanura, whoe bowed again and went over to the window. Ramla
121 slowly looked over to Nakia. Her eyes were closed and for the first
122 time saw the symbol on her forehead: it was Ra's symbol and it was
123 glowing.
124 "Nakia," she said in a worried voice.
125 Nakia opened her eyes and smiled at her. "Princess, I believe you. I
126 will help you any way I can, but I still don't know why Ra asks me, a
127 peasent girl from another kingdom, of all people," she answers.
128 The Phoenix started to sing a bright yet ethereal melody: the power
129 coming from its song was making everyone calm: all of them were now
130 deep within their own thoughts.
131 In Ramla was looking at Nakia, studying her unusual-looking friend
132 as strange thoughts began to gnaw their way into her mind.
133 "I don't knew why Ra ask you to help me Nakia, but I very glad he
134 did…I wonder what her lips feel like…No, what am I thinking; I can't
135 think like that. Women cannot love other women; the Gods decreed it
136 to be this way… didn't they?" Ramla's face became very red and she
137 turns her head to look out the window hoping that her dark-haired
138 friend didn't see her blush.
139 Nakia was in deep thought: she was looking at her new friend, and
140 was trying to find out why she had been chosen for such a task. So
141 many questions had come into her mind that she felt like her head
142 might soon burst.
143 "Why did she turn to look out the window, and is she blushing too?
144 Why do I have this feeling in me, what is it, and why do I feel it's
145 what will help her? What can I do to help a princess; goddess I wish
146 I had some answers." Nakia's eerie, violet eyes scanned the room and
147 then turned back to the princess.
148 Sanura was just looking out the window and into the coming storm.
149 The strangely cold wind whipped across her face as she sat there deep
150 in thought.
151 "Goddess, I now see why Ra chose that young woman to help the
152 princess, but they need more time, I don't knew what I can to do to
153 help them; I fear that they may have her killed if she is with the
154 princess. I will try to think of something in the meantime."
155 She turned around and looked at the two girls: one was looking out
156 the window and the other was watching her. A smile came to her face.
157 "Well, I think we need to make a plan first of all."
158 "A plan?"
159 "Yes, we have to plan what we're going to tell your mother, Ramla.
160 Any ideas?" she asked them.
161 They sat there thinking off ideas: after about fifteen minutes they
162 looked at one another and sighed.
163 "I got nothing, couldn't lie to my mother about anything at all, and
164 she would knew if I was lying to her," Ramla said, laughing quietly.
165 "Yes, I would do a bad job at lying too; it wouldn't feel right to
166 lie to my Queen" replied Sanura with a grin.
167 Nakia did say anything, but she knew that lying would not get them
168 anywhere, so she just nodded.
169 "I have a feeling that your mother will understand if you just tell
170 her what is going on," replied Nakia. The phoenix got up, turned,
171 nodded at Nakia, and took off out the window.
172 "I think someone thinks the same thing," replied Sanura, who was
173 looking out the window watching the bird fly to the palace as the eye
174 of the storm crept ominously closer into view.
