Ancient Egypt: On the Nile

*Anyone like Chicago?

Yuma was ready as she leaned to one side and when Dumi hit him she somersalted away until she was next to the others. Zafira knelt with her fist tight and when Yuma opened it it was a note from the royal advisor and chancellor about marrying Zafira and her. GROSS!

Naqadar rode up to the palace and walked in. He walked to the royal advisor's office and stood in the doorway until the man looked up.

"Suprised to see me?" He asked.

"How...But...No...Please...No!" Naqadar walked closer and closer, drew his sword and spilled the advisor's blood all over the office.

"Be sure that those bastards get his body..." He told the officer standing next to him then walked out.

(why not marry a slave? He was a lonly little man and she was an easy target...He could just buy her if he wanted to..Well, not now...)

"Zafira there's something going on the pharoah isn't telling us. This is getting too fishy," said Yuma as Zafira clutched her hand in a fist with the note inside.

((because it's considered somewhat shameful to marry someone who ranks so low in society))

Zafira looked confused. "No matter we have to get back and help him." DUmi nodded. He led them all back to their homeland.

Once they were there Dumi took the note and the took Zafira by the hand. "Come one" he said before dragging her to the palace. He demanded to see the pharoah. He knew Yuma would probably follow.

Naqadar was being looked at by a doctor, "He beat you up pretty bad, huh?"

"Yeah," replied Naqadar, "But I eventually got the best of him...Ouch!"

"So that hurts? Hmm...Looks like you have a couple broken ribs and a broken nose. Lucky one of those ribs didn't go through a lung...Or even your heart. You should take it easy for the next..."

Naqadar interrupted, "I won't take it easy. I have to defeat those...Savages. They have some grudge against Egypt and if I let them continue to terrorize the city, we'll never live our lives normal again. Plus, I still have to finish the tomb of the dead..."

The doctor nodded, "Whatever you wish, sire. But it would be against my professional opinion."

Dumi marched in with Zafira following behind. She looked sort of confused. He pushed by the doctor and shoved the note in front of Naqadar's face. "Do you know the meaning of this?" he asked calmly although is actions weren't.

"Why don't you walk down that hall, turn the corner, and go in the first room on the left and ask the advisor yourself? Better hurry though, he'll be leaving soon..."

The doctor started wrapping Naqadar's ribs with medical wrap.

Dumi growled and drug a very worried Zafira after him As he rounded the corner he went into the room and saw the advisor. He dropped Zafira's hand out of shock. He walked up to the guy forgetting any shock. He held the note the advisor could read it. "What is this?" he asked.

(The advisor is dead, read my post before the doctor.)

"Your majesty what is going on?" asked Yuma very distressed.

Dumi took a knife out of his pocket and cut out one of his(advisor) eyes. He stuffed it in a pouch. he would use it for later.

Zafira watched as they took the dead man away. "Master, he won't bother anyone again. Let's just go home, Please." she begged. Dumi nodded.

(((Well you told Dumi to talk to him.)))

"Zafira can I stay at your house for a while since the temple was burned. Whatever happened ended in that happening. Please may I?" said Yuma with a pleading expression.

Zafira looked at Dumi who nodded. "Of course you may stay with us. I have a fealing Zaf will need company while I work."

"I can help around the house. be useful you know," said Yuma smiling.

"No, It's alright Zaf dooesn't have to clean. the place is clean already. Just have fun." he said bowing his head to the priestess then smiled at Zafira before heading towards home.

"Are you sure?" said Yuma giggling. "I can cook you know. Ow forget it."
*Do you like Chicago*the movie*? If so do you want to be in a roleplay w/that?

~Never seen it~

Zafira laughed and led Yuma towards there house. Once they reached it Zafira was doing everything in her power to make Yuma feel at home.

Yuma looked out the window at the black sky and shivered when she thought about the pharoah and the advisor. The advisor who had been so cruel to her was finally dead. She couldn't believe it.
