Chapter Eleven: Christ the Redeemer

The Storytellers head towards the huge statue. They are being watched by many of the people in the area as they stand before the statue. Suddenly 5 people walk up and grab Bob and point guns at the others. "Hey what are you doing!" Emlyn shouts at them.

"He needs to be sacrificed his his crimes!" A man appearing to be the leader responds.

"What crimes?" Sarah shouts at them and is ready to freeze this guy.

"Dressing in such disgusting clothes and well his overall mannerisms seem disturbing. There is no place for him on this planet." They scurry off with Bob who is shouting profanities at these people. Bob was wearing a pink mini skirt. He had on a matching crop top with gold jewelry. His heels let's be clear were to die for.

"What do we do?" Emlyn whispers as they take Bob off.

"We rescue him." They look behind them to see Camilla who was wearing a tight black cocktail dress and knee high leather boots.

"Your outfit looks better but why would you want to save him?" Emlyn asks and Camilla looked offended.

"He's my brother asshole. Now come on Sarah dear we will save Bob and these three can do whatever they're going to do." Camilla held out her hand to Sarah so they could teleport.

"How can I be sure this isn't a trap? A trap you probably set up!" Sarah said Camilla rolled her eyes.

"My brother and I are two different people, but I certainly know that he is right in his beliefs and mannerisms. I can't let him be sacrificed, I mean who will rule the throne with me? Plus trying to get in that statue with all these psychos, good luck I'm not needed to stop you." Camilla said chuckling.

"Fine we have nothing to loose at this point, get the tile, Camilla and I will go save Bob." Sarah responded and her and Camilla whisked away.

"Are we sure we should trust that?" Stella asked looking at Emlyn who shrugged.

"Camilla always has been pretty honest and straightforward I'll give her that. We don't have time to argue at this point." Emlyn said and headed for the statue. It is the largest art deco statue in the world being 98 feet tall, however finding an entrance seemed a task all in itself.

"Is there even an entrance?" Mystic asked and Emlyn looked worried.

"I don't know this is odd, I mean there has to be one somewhere." Emlyn looked around the base of the statue but there seemed to be nothing. That was until Stella pushed in on one of the sides and a door opened.

"A secret door looks like they don't want people in here." Stella said and they followed her inside.

Emlyn shone the flashlight around and pulled out the compass, "I don't care what they want, we need this tile." They followed the compass around until they found it in the floor. The floor was created with tiles to form a circular art piece. Emlyn took the one that seemed out of place and they headed out.

They closed the door and headed in the direction the van took Bob hoping to eventually catch up with them in time.

Meanwhile Sarah and Camilla sat in the bushes in a wooded area. Bob was tied to a stake and the man from before was chanting the words of "Christ" from his bible. People were on there knees surrounding Bob in a circle and praying silently. Bob was shouting at the top of his lungs and Sarah looked at Camilla.

"What should we do?" She asked and Camilla grinned.

"Wait till they set him on fire and I'll reverse the fire so they all set on fire instead." Camilla chuckled evilly and Sarah shook her head.

"I could just freeze them it would be faster and this guy is never gonna shut up." Sarah responded and Camilla smirked.

"That's why I want to hear him scream, we are doing my plan." Camilla said and Sarah sighed. After what seemed like forever the dude finally shut up and set Bob on fire. As soon as he did however he found he himself was on fire. The rest of the people all caught on fire and screamed as they all burned alive.

Once they were nothing but ash Sarah and Camilla came out and Bob glared. "Of course it was you, are we working together now?" Bob asked confused.

"No dear brother I just came to help save you. I'll be on my way now." Camilla said but before she disappeared Sarah grabbed her arm.

"I don't think so, you are gonna teleport Bob and myself back to the others." She untied Bob from the stake and Camilla huffed.

"Fine if I must." She teleported all three of them back to the others who were walking down the road still. "There happy? Everyone's back together! Now I really must be going, it's almost tea time." She disappeared and Sarah looked towards Emlyn.

"Did you get the tile?" She asked and Emlyn nodded.

"Yeah, what about the people who kidnapped Bob what happened?" Emlyn asked.

"Camilla uh burned them alive... anyways we should leave." Sarah said and Emlyn rolled her eyes.

"Right," they all joined hands and Emlyn whisked them away to the Kingdom of Jordan in southwestern Asia. The Petra was one of the last stops but with 24 hours left on the clock, would they make it on time?
