Ch. 40 Bringing back the past

Three masculine figures appeared on top of a cliff, with one of them holding a feminine figure in their grasp. They were silently staring at a town in south-eastern Egypt, located on the western shore of the Red Sea called Marsa Alam.

" Let go of me!" Felicia cried while punching Imhotep's back since he held her over his shoulder.

Imhotep turns his head back slightly, seeing Felicia looking frustrated.

" I do not want to hurt you. Please, relax," Imhotep calmly speaks.

Felicia turned her head back, and her bright green eyes intently stared at Imhotep's light brown eyes. Tears were falling from her eyes since she thought her captor had killed her family and friends.

Imhotep sadly stared at Felicia since he didn't like seeing her cry.

" Why are we here?" Beni nervously asked, looking and sounding cautious since he is standing on the left side of Imhotep.

Demir glanced at Beni since he was standing on the right side of Imhotep.

Imhotep looks away, and he turns his gaze to the small town.

" This place was my childhood home before I went to live and serve the Pharaoh and his family at Cairo. After I got punished for something, I didn't do. They buried me in Hamunaptra, near the Valley of the Kings, where the Pharaoh got buried.

I immediately thought of my hometown for Bahiti and me to be safe from those that do not want us to get together. It seems as though everything has changed since I last came here," Imhotep confessed while gently putting Felicia down in front of him.

Felicia warily stared at Imhotep, thinking he would kill her as he did to her family and friends.

" I told you before! I am not Bahiti!" Felicia sternly speaks, with tears falling from her bright green eyes. " Please, let me go! I am sorry for awakening you! It was an accident," She drops to her knees. " Just kill me as you did to my family and friends!" She hugs herself and cries.

Beni uncomfortably stared at Felicia while Demir sadly stared at her.

Imhotep's gaze softened when he saw Felicia looking helpless and lost. He kneels, and he gently places his hands on her shoulders, causing her to look at him.

" Your loved ones have not left you," Imhotep reassures.

Felicia's watery bright green eyes intently stared at Imhotep's light brown eyes.

" I-I saw you bury them alive!" Felicia shouts.

Imhotep looks away from Felicia, and his right hand begins to move in a circular motion, causing a sand-like mirror to appear in front of them.

Demir and Beni silently stared at the sand-like mirror.

Felicia's watery bright green eyes blinked when she saw a shadow-like ball appear in the sand-like mirror. Her eyes widened when she saw her family and friends appearing in the desert after the shadow ball disappeared.

" They are alive," Felicia mouths out, looking and feeling relieved when she sees Rick and Isabella.

" They had a demigod with them. I knew they would be safe," Imhotep merely explained. " The only reason I attacked them is that they were on my way," He firmly speaks, and he stands up.

Felicia continued to stare at her family and friends with tears falling from her bright green eyes.

Imhotep glanced at Felicia, looking at her with a tender gaze.

" My only purpose was to take you so that I wouldn't lose you again," Imhotep confessed.

Felicia slowly turns her gaze to Imhotep. Her bright green eyes intently stared at his light brown eyes.

All the crying was making Felicia exhausted. And now that she knows her family and friends are safe. Her adrenaline rush had started to shut down on her.

Felicia slowly held her hand out to Imhotep while her bright green eyes were getting heavy.

" Bahiti," Imhotep calls out, looking down at Felicia in concern.

" My...name...is...not...Ba..hi..ti," Felicia mumbled, and she faints.

Imhotep immediately kneels, and he catches Felicia. He looks down, and he sees her panting heavily. He gently placed his hand on her forehead, and he frowned when he felt immense heat.

"She has a fever," Imhotep firmly speaks.

" Must be from over-stressed," Demir confessed.

Beni frowned when he witnessed and realized that Rick was alive.

' What is it with these O'Connell's surviving Death?' Beni asked himself.

Imhotep securely holds Felicia in his arms, and he stands up.

" I want you to watch over Felicia while I go do something," Imhotep firmly speaks, causing the two males to stare at him.

" Where are you going?" Demir asked, looking and sounding curious.

Imhotep carefully placed Felicia in Demir's grasp, causing him to hold her securely.

" Bringing back the past," Imhotep whispered, and he disappeared in a gust of sand and wind.

" What?" Beni dumbfoundedly asked while Demir stared at Felicia curiously.

'To stay alive and to come back to my daughter. I might as well make sure nothing happens to this girl,' Demir tells himself.

" Where could he have gone?" Beni asked, looking and sounding anxious.

Demir's dark eyes blinked, and he looked at his surroundings, seeing a sandstorm heading in their direction.

" Sandstorm! Cover your eyes!" Demir shouts.

Beni's blue eyes widened when he saw a massive sandstorm heading in their direction.

Demir immediately closed his dark eyes, and he kneels, protectively holding Felicia in his grasp. Meanwhile, Beni kneels beside Demir, and he hugs him, looking and feeling scared as he closes his blue eyes.

" Bring back once what was mine! Bring back the time where everything is peaceful! Bring back the time I had with Bahiti!" Imhotep roared in Ancient Arabic as he engulfed the small town with everyone in it.

Soon the small town began to reconstruct itself. It started to look more ancient than modern. In seconds, the new town got born. After that, a palace got perched on the cliffside, near the beach, which overlooked the town.

Imhotep and the others appeared inside the palace, what seemed to be the throne room.

" You may open your eyes," Imhotep speaks to Demir and Beni.

Demir and Beni opened their eyes, and they blinked when they saw that they were inside a palace.

" Where are we?" Demir asked.

" Our new home," Imhotep responded.

Beni looked at his surroundings, feeling surprised and awe since he didn't expect to be inside a beautiful, Ancient-looking palace. He then looks down at himself, and he is shocked to be wearing Ancient Egyptian clothing.

" What am I wearing?" Beni asked.

Demir turned his gaze to Beni, and his dark eyes blinked when he saw what the other male was wearing.

" You two are wearing proper clothing of royal guards," Imhotep responded while taking Felicia from Demir's grasp.

Demir raised an eyebrow when Imhotep said that he and Beni were wearing the same clothing. He looked down, and his dark eyes widened when he saw that he was indeed wearing the same outfit.

" Why are we wearing this?" Demir asked, looking and sounding confused.

" You two would be my most loyal guards. We will have more coming. But, I trust you two with my life. I also trust you to look after my Queen whenever I am not in the room," Imhotep tells the two males while staring down at Felicia.

Felicia shivered, and she unknowingly cuddled against Imhotep's chest.

" A royal Doctor should be here soon with some of the guards. They will take him to Bahiti's chambers. And you two will follow them and make sure that the Doctor doesn't do anything to her," Imhotep firmly speaks, and he disappears in a gust of sand with Felicia, leaving Demir and Beni alone in the throne room.

Demir and Beni looked at one another with a conflicting gaze since they didn't know what they signed up for, and the two males prayed to all the gods that they would be safe throughout this intense journey.
