    1.10 +Chapter Six
    1.11 +Ra's Pet Dragon
    1.12 +
    1.13 +The Phoenix flew very quickly down the hall, its eyes glowing redder
    1.14 +and get redder as it went. The flames its wings began to increase in
    1.15 +size and flare out on either side of it.  Layla felt something
    1.16 +powerful coming her way, closer and closer with every passing second;
    1.17 +she knew she should have been terrified, but whatever it was couldn't
    1.18 +be worse than the memories she was seeing, could it? The flashes of
    1.19 +her mother stopped and Layla slumped forward, gasping for breath as
    1.20 +though she had been saved from drowning. Anubis' Priest saw a glow
    1.21 +golden flame coming down the hall and narrowed his eyes.
    1.22 +"Well, it looks like time's up" he thought as he tried to walk to
    1.23 +the side door, but found that he couldn't move. The Phoenix dove into
    1.24 +the room, landed behind Layla and put its flaming wings around her to
    1.25 +shield her. Layla felt so safe and warm that she fell asleep, all
    1.26 +worries banished from her mind. The bird didn't take her eyes off the
    1.27 +priest: it so wanted to attack him, but it had to make sure that the
    1.28 +human was alright until other humans came… then he was going to feel
    1.29 +what Hell's fire really was. The Phoenix began once more to sing, but
    1.30 +this time it was a scream of pure rage and hatred, so loud that the
    1.31 +very palace itself began to shake. The Priest fell to the floor with
    1.32 +his hands to his ears so as to somewhat block out the infernal noise. 
    1.33 +"I believe that I have made it mad, will this should be fun," he
    1.34 +smirked, got back on his feet and began to concentrate: quite
    1.35 +suddenly his eyes turned black.
    1.36 +"So Ra sends his only pet to stop me; I'm not scared of you, so
    1.37 +let's play!" he yelled at it and laughed evilly.
    1.38 +The phoenix knew that he was up to something, but couldn't tell
    1.39 +what. She could hear someone enter from the left and then more from
    1.40 +the right. She saw the Great Pharaoh to the left: he was standing
    1.41 +there looking shocked and a little scared as to what was happening.
    1.42 +His eyes showed a different story; it showed power and it had the
    1.43 +eyes of a loving father. She then felt the humans behind her. She
    1.44 +removed her wings and took off towards Anubis' priest with anger. The
    1.45 +priest just saw the pharaoh and the women enter the room. He smirked
    1.46 +has Ra's pet came towards him: he let the firebird hit him and they
    1.47 +both went through the wall and out into the storm. His body rolled
    1.48 +around on the ground like a rag doll. He finally stopped when his
    1.49 +body hit one of the columns near the palace. The rain and wind wasn't
    1.50 +helping much with this, he noted: he slowly got up and looked around
    1.51 +for the damned bird. It was hard to see with this rain coming down
    1.52 +like it was, and the wind was trying to push him around. He finally
    1.53 +saw it and it was coming right at him. He could steam where the rain
    1.54 +had hit the Phoenix's flaming wings.
    1.55 +"Well, it looks like it's going to try to kill me, how quaint; it
    1.56 +will never truly be able to do that, but oh well, it seems that I
    1.57 +must kill it instead. I knew that I can't really kill you, my dear
    1.58 +Phoenix, but we're in darkness and that is my element." He thought as
    1.59 +he moved into the shadow of the columns and made his eyes glow black
    1.60 +again: then he disappeared into the shadows themselves. He moved very
    1.61 +fast in the shadows and got right beside the bird. He just smiled
    1.62 +evilly as a sword appeared in his hand and attacked the Phoenix. 
    1.63 +As the phoenix saw him disappear, she thought about where would he
    1.64 +attack. Then she saw something moving in the shadows. 
    1.65 +It was the High Priest; he was moving throughout the shadows in such
    1.66 +a way that she could have sworn he had become a part of them: still
    1.67 +she didn't have much time to think about that as he attacked. She
    1.68 +moved out of the way just before the sword hit her side. Golden
    1.69 +feathers shot from her left wing at him as she rolled to her side,
    1.70 +then he moved back into the shadow and disappeared.
    1.71 +The priest looked around and saw the feathers that came out of the
    1.72 +bird burst into flames.
    1.73 +"Well I didn't see that one coming, I believe it's time to disappear
    1.74 +for now, I can't win with the weather like this - it slows me down to
    1.75 +much. I will have other chance soon enough," he thought. He stepped
    1.76 +out into the open and saw the young women and the Pharaoh, who was
    1.77 +holding his wife. They were looking out into the rain watching what
    1.78 +had happened between himself and the phoenix.
    1.79 +"Well, it looks like I can take care of one problems before I go" he
    1.80 +thought evilly, then he moved as fast as he could through the rain,
    1.81 +trying to keep from be seen by Ra's little toy.
    1.82 +As the Pharaoh held this wife, his mind went back to what had
    1.83 +happened before all of this.
    1.84 +
    1.85 +(Flashback)
    1.86 +The Pharaoh entered the room to see a fire-like bird shielding
    1.87 +something with its wings then he looked behind the animal and saw
    1.88 +this wife, daughter, and the two young ladies. One looked like she
    1.89 +was a priestess - he could tell by the clothes she was wearing - but
    1.90 +the other woman, the one with black hair, was wearing a tattered
    1.91 +dress that looked very old and worn. As they stopped behind the bird,
    1.92 +it opened it wings to reveal one of its wounds, she looked like she
    1.93 +was in bad shape. The bird had then taken off and attacked the
    1.94 +priest. With the power behind the flying firebird they both went
    1.95 +flying through the wall and out into the rain. The priestess walked
    1.96 +over to the young girl on the floor to see if she was alright. She
    1.97 +picked up her and as they left he saw his daughter holding on to the
    1.98 +other woman with black hair. His wife was just standing there with a
    1.99 +worried look on her face. He walked over to them. 
   1.100 +"I believe, my wife, that you have some things to tell me," he said:
   1.101 +it was not so much a question as a statement.
   1.102 +His wife just nodded and told her everything that she thought was
   1.103 +important. He believed what she told him; why would she lie? He then
   1.104 +looked over to his daughter and smiled at her. He walked over to the
   1.105 +hall with his wife to see what was going on. His daughter and friend
   1.106 +were close by and were still holding one another.
   1.107 +((End Flashback)
   1.108 +
   1.109 +The Priest moved up to the Queen and Pharaoh with his sword ready to
   1.110 +attack. The Pharaoh just saw the man run right at him; he knew what
   1.111 +was happening, so he pushed his wife to the side, and took the hit
   1.112 +hard. The sword went through his heart like a knife through butter.
   1.113 +Lightning hit the ground as his body fell, never to get back up
   1.114 +again. The three women just looked on with shock. Neith saw her
   1.115 +husband mouth 'I love you' before he died. She slowly crept over to
   1.116 +him and closed his eyes. She looked over to her one and only daughter
   1.117 +and started to cry. 
   1.118 +Ramla saw her father fall and her mother crying. She looked up to
   1.119 +Nakia and saw a glowing like she never saw before. The feeling coming
   1.120 +from her friend was a deep sadness. She just held her with all the
   1.121 +power that she had. Nakia saw it again and again and knew that no
   1.122 +matter what pain she felt she knew that, for Ramla it must have been
   1.123 +a thousand times worse.
   1.124 +Her thoughts kept flashing back to that what had just happened
   1.125 +before for her and what had happen to her father. It was the same
   1.126 +thing, her mother crying over her husband with her little girl
   1.127 +looking on.
   1.128 +"Ramla, it's happing again, he needs to be stopped now," she told
   1.129 +her with a harder and sadness in her voice. She moved away from her
   1.130 +and started to walk to the priest, who was just grinning. She then
   1.131 +couldn't take it anymore and ran right into him; they both fell over
   1.132 +in the sand, which had by then been permeated with water and had
   1.133 +begun to turn to mud. The priest looked up to what pushed him over,
   1.134 +and saw that it was the black haired girl. He just grinned: he could
   1.135 +get rid of her sooner than he had thought. 
   1.136 +"Well, well, what do we have here? It looks like someone wants die
   1.137 +today," he thought. He got up, grabbed his sword and made another one
   1.138 +appeared in his other hand.
   1.139 +"So you want to play has well? Come on then, my dear," he snarled to
   1.140 +her.
   1.141 +Nakia slow got up, the rain and wind was now at its peak: the eye of
   1.142 +the storm was approaching, that much was obvious. She couldn't stand
   1.143 +straight because of the ferocity of the wind. She then felt someone
   1.144 +holding onto her. She looked to her side and saw Ramla looking up at
   1.145 +her with a smile and nodded. Nakia just nodded back: they both turned
   1.146 +to the priest with their eyes flashing white as his glowed black. 
   1.147 +  The thunder roared on in the background, but through the thunder
   1.148 +you could hear a song. They looked around trying to find out were it
   1.149 +was coming from. Ramla then spotted it: it was the phoenix. She was
   1.150 +on top of a nearby column and her red eyes were glowing with such
   1.151 +power that it started to scare them both. She was going to kill him:
   1.152 +first he killed the pharaoh, and the wanted to kill her human and her
   1.153 +human's lover. She spread her wings high into the air and started to
   1.154 +grow to a monstrous size until she was about as big as a dragon. The
   1.155 +flames coming off her were causing rays of light to break through the
   1.156 +clouds all around them. She cried out into the storm then she took
   1.157 +off and shot two golden feathers at the priest.
   1.158 +He was looking right at the phoenix in shock: he started to shake,
   1.159 +then he saw the two feathers coming right at him, and the gigantic
   1.160 +bird was right behind them. He flinched away in anticipation of the
   1.161 +blow but in never came. The feathers went past him to the two females
   1.162 +that were looking on. The bird flew behind them and landed.
   1.163 +"What is going on, the power coming from them is so great that it
   1.164 +making my head spin," he wondered.
   1.165 + Ramla and Nakia watched the phoenix grow and shot something at
   1.166 +them. They could feel a power in them and it kept on growing: then
   1.167 +the two feathers stopped right in front of them and the gigantic
   1.168 +firebird land behind them. The two feathers started to change into
   1.169 +two beautiful swords. Both swords had the symbol of Ra on them and a
   1.170 +white flower going spiraling all the way down the polished steel
   1.171 +blades.
   1.172 +Ramla and Nakia closed their eyes and held out heir hands: it was as
   1.173 +if the swords were calling to them. The two swords disappeared from
   1.174 +where they were floating in the air and then reappeared in their
   1.175 +hands. The dragon-like phoenix covered them with its wings. Then a
   1.176 +flash of flames came from within the wings: it was so bright that the
   1.177 +priest had to shield his eyes, as did Neith. Then it died down and
   1.178 +the bird removed its wings: and there stood Ramla and Nakia in
   1.179 +Egyptian princess dresses with the symbol of Ra on their foreheads
   1.180 +and their eyes glowing eerily white.
   1.181 +
   1.182 +
   1.183 +A/N- I hope everyone like this chapter, the next chapter will be
   1.184 +about Ramla and Nakia as they take on the high Priest of Anubis. Oh
   1.185 +and if you have time could you review? I would really appreciate it.
   1.186 +Thanks-Black Rose
