Gods Of Egypt

Chapter 12: Next Move

The look that had been on the face of Isabelle, when she had come to work the next day, only to see that the place had all been burnt down. It was hard for me to not crack a smile, if I was not going to lie to my self at the exact same time as well. I did manage to not do as such a thing luckily enough for me, and not even that, but luckily enough for the entire rebellion, as we all had done a very good job of looking fairly innocent, and fairly upset about all of this, as to the fact that we were the ones that were going to have to clean it up after all, and we basically were having to start all over again from the ground up, on a project that we had been working on for nearly a year up to this point.
We were not even near being done, even before us attacking it last night, and I knew it just as well as every one else as well. That was not the purpose in all of it though, as it had spread a good message across the city at the exact same time as well, as it had brought a lot of hope back in to the world none the less, too. I sighed just a bit to my self, as I still felt like I could not but help to still be a little bit worried about all of it, as it kind of felt like it was just in my nature to always be worried. There was a good reason for that how ever, as I had done a good job for a while, of taking all of those thoughts out of my head, as my wife, Sandy, had helped me with all of those thoughts.
Now that she was gone though, and I was alone, I had no one to help me through any of this, any more. I shook my head all at the exact same time as well, as I did my best to try to shake off all of those thoughts from my head all at once, as well. There was a good reason as to why I had wanted to crack quite a big smile on my face, as to just what it was that had been done, and the look that I had seen on the face of Isabelle, all at the exact same time as well, as I knew that she was going to be the main one that was going to be getting in the most trouble due to this. I knew that she knew that at the exact same time as well, as she did not say a word at work today, as she instead just had her head down to the ground.
It was clear that she did not have a clue as to the fact that we were the ones to do it either, which was great to see at the exact same time too. The city was cheering, as it was all happy as to what it was that it had seen last night, and there was nothing that could be done about any of it. The law had not been laid down on the city just yet, so for now, we had plenty of time to cheer, as well as the fact that we had plenty of time to celebrate at the exact same time as well, never the less. We just were not able to do that at work, as I knew that we had to be the ones that were pretending to be upset at it, as there was a lot of coworkers that were not in on this just yet.
I sighed, as I did my best to shake off all of those thoughts, all at the exact same time as well, as I then got my focus on the thoughts of some thing that was altogether completely different from all of this, at this very moment in time too, which was the fact that I kne that I had to get ready for some thing else at the exact same time as well. I knew that I was about to head out from my home, which I was okay with none the less, as I did not like to be here any more, with out having the light spirit of my wife around, to cheer things up around the place, as the world for me felt quite a bit dark, as well as the fact that it felt quite a bit bleak at the exact same time as well. I knew that this rebellion was the only thing that was giving me hope up to this point now.
I was sure that my wife was dead, even if I did not want to think that kind of way, I felt like she was, and I should not get my hopes up at the exact same time as well, as to the fact that the rebellion might go some where, and that we might just all of the sudden run in to the gates, and save her life at the exact same time too. I rolled my eyes just a bit to my self, all at the exact same time as well, as I then did my best to get my focus off of all of those thoughts none the less, as I then began to put on some sandals, as I knew that I was about to have to go out side, and I was going to have to go walk over to Sabins place, where we were going to have the next meeting with just me, Randy, Sabin, and Noah there, to talk about what it was that was next.
Sabin had already explained to me, as to how it was that I was going to try to pull in people to join the rebellion, but I was a little bit too afraid to get all of that started, all at the exact same time as well, if I was not going to lie to my self either. I sighed just a bit to my self none the less, as I then got my focus off of those thoughts too, as I knew that I had to think on just what it was that I was about to go in and do, which it did not take me all too long to think on it, and to remember just what it was, as I heard the knock on the front door to my home, letting me know that Randy was here, and that he was about ready to go with me over to Sabins house, to go and meet him, and discuss what it was that we had planned for the future, and if it were a good idea or not, at the exact same time too.
I nodded just a little bit to my self, all at once, as I got my focus off of all of the thoughts that it seemed like my mind had been stuck in for a little bit of some time, as I then all of the sudden got out of the bed that I had been laying in for quite a while as well. I sighed just a bit to my self, as I was not all too sure as to just what it was that I was even thinking about right at this very moment in time any ways. If I was not going to lie to my self, I really did not want to go to Sabins house, as I felt like I just wanted to take a day off, but at the exact same time as well, I also knew that what it was that Sabin had told me on that, was as to the fact that he had said that, 'this is war... We can't have any days off...'
I shook my head, as I got my focus off of all of those thoughts all at once, as I then all of the sudden began to head down the hall way, all the way over to the front door, all at once, all at the exact same time as well, as I could almost here the heavy breathing of Randy through the door way, if I was not going to lie to my self, as I knew that my friend was quite a bit anxious to get all of this started, all at once as well, as I felt quite a bit anxious as well if I was not going to lie to my self, as I felt quite a bit earnest to get all of this started as well, as I really did not like to be at my house any more, as it still just felt so cold. I was almost tempted to just sell it for cheap, but at the exact same time as well, I also knew that there was really no where for me to go other wise, besides living out on some ally way out in the streets.
Even if I felt alone here, and I did not want to be here any more, I knew that it was not an option for me at the exact same time too, none the less, as I rolled my eyes just a bit to my self, as soon as I got my self to the front door, as I did my best to try to shake off all of the other thoughts that had seemed to be going on through my head, all at the exact same time as well, as I then all of the sudden nodded to my self, as I cracked a little bit of a smile on my face never the less, as well, as I then began to open the door of the place, only to see that my friend also had a big smile on his face never the less, which did in fact have me quite a bit confused, as to just why it was that it seemed like the both of us were happy right now.
It just did not make sense at all to me, as I knew that the both of us had lost our wives, as it felt kind of like a bit of a sore subject to even think about in my very own head none the less as well. If I was not going to lie to my self, I knew as to just why it was that the both of us had smiles on our faces. They were smiles of hope, as we actually had a bit of some faith that some thing was going to be done to stop all of this madness that was going on in this world. As after all, that was where it was that we were heading off to just now none the less, as I then all of the sudden nodded to my good friend Randy, all at once, as he then nodded right back over to me, not all too long after I had done as such a thing to him.
I blinked my eyes a few times, as I was not all too sure as to just what it was that I had even been thinking as to the fact that I had nodded to him in the very first place any ways, as I then all of the sudden dipped my head a bit low to the ground, all at the exact same time as well. That did not seem to bother Randy all too much how ever, as I stared down below me for just a little while longer, until I then all of the sudden heard his voice, as he then began to speak to me, all at the exact same time as well. I breathed in quite a bit heavily, as I just was not all too sure as to just what it was that was even going on with me right now. None of that really mattered I suppose how ever the case was, as I knew that Randy was speaking to me right now, and that I should be paying attention, just out of respect to my good friend. I stared at him for just a little bit longer none the less, as I did in fact begin to listen as to just what it was that he had to say to me in the very first place any ways.
"Man... I am not going to lie to you... I am excited to see what our next move is coming up... The look on the face of Isabelle... She did not have a single clue about any of it..." He said to me, as I saw that he had a big smile on his face with each and every word that he had just said to me, all at the exact same time as well. I was not going to lie to my self either, the fact that not only was he smiling at me, but also the fact as to just what it was that he had just said to me, as it was still fresh in my mind, as to the fact that Isabelle had been very angry, as well as the fact that she had been hurt by what had happened. I knew that it was due to the fact that I knew just as well as she did, that it might get her killed, as to just what it was that had happened here last night.
It meant that she could be killed by the leader ship, and that she might be killed by the government that ruled this nation at the exact same time too. Frankly, if I was not going to lie to my self as well, I really did not feel bad for her at all, as I knew that she had it coming at this point. She had led to the death of so many people, and I knew that she was the one who had been the reason that they had taken my wife. That did not make me feel any sort of better at all either, as it only made me get even more angry that I had been before, none the less. I let out a bit of a soft sigh to my self, all at the exact same time too, as I did my best to get my focus off of all of those thoughts, all at once, as I instead got my focus on the thoughts of just what it was that was going on right now.
The reason as to why I had got my focus on what it was that was going on right now, was simple never the less, as I then had all of the sudden seen Randy start to walk away from the front door that I had opened for him not all too long ago, as I tilted my head for some stupid reason or another, as I did not have a clue as to just what it was that was going on right at this very moment in time, as I could see my good friend starting to head over to the front steps that led out of the housing place that I lived in. As I stared at him for just a little bit longer, I then all of the sudden saw that my friend had noticed that I had not moved a muscle just yet, and that I was still standing at the front door to my place right now.
I felt a bit bad for it, as I felt like there had to be some thing that was important that was going on at this very moment in time, but I had just been so lost on my own thoughts, to have a single clue as to just what it could have been in the very first place any ways, as I let out quite a bit of a rough sigh to my self this time, all at the exact same time as well, as I then all of the sudden got my focus back on to just what it was that was going on right now, which was of course the fact that my good friend, Randy, was walking away from my place, after he had just knocked on it, to try to get my to answer it. I was a little bit lost as to the fact as to the reason that he was leaving so soon, as I knew that it was not normal for him, when ever he came to visit me.
I had quite a bit of a blank look my face, all at the exact same time as well, as I saw quite a bit of a blank look on the face of my friend, all at the exact same time as well, as I then saw him blink his eyes a few times at me, as I then saw him shake his head a time, not all too much longer after all of that, as if he thought that I was some kind of idiot, for just what it was that I was even doing right at this very moment in time any ways. I felt like I should not blame him for it either, due to the fact that I just was not all too quite sure as to just what it was that was going on right now any ways, as I had been too lost in my head to even think on just what it was that he had done, and where it was that he was going right at this very moment in time, any ways.
As I stared at him for just a few more moments, with quite a bit of a blank look on my own face still, it then all of the sudden seemed to come back to me, all at the exact same time as well, as I then blinked my eyes a few times, not for the first time in the last few moments, as I then nodded a bit to my self, all at the exact same time too, as I grinned all at once, and I then began to get my focus instead on some thing that was altogether completely different right now, as it all hit me as to just what it was that we were doing, and what it was that I had been thinking on not all too long before now, which was of course the fact that I had been talking about leaving my place, and going to Sabins place, to go and find out what the meeting was about.
As it then seemed to dawn on me, all at the exact same time as well, I then all of the sudden looked back at my friend, as I then nodded to him all at once, as I cracked a bit of a smile on my face at the exact same time too, now that it seemed to all come back to me, as I felt a lot better than I had felt just a few moments before all of this, as I saw that he did not have a smile back on his face as to the fact that I did, as it seemed like he was just a bit worried for me. I knew that he was a good friend, and he should in fact be worried for me, but if I was not going to lie to my self, at the exact same time as well, there really was not all too much that he should even be worried for, in the very first place any ways.
I sighed just a bit to my self, as I did my best to try to get my focus off of all of those thoughts all at the exact same time as well, as I instead got my focus on the thoughts as to just what it was that I was trying to do right now any ways, which was the fact that I was going to go and join Randy none the less, as I then began to walk over to him all at the exact same time as well, as I saw that he did not seem to be taking me all too seriously right now, as it did not seem like he actually believed as to the fact that I knew as to just what it was that I was even doing right now. I let out a bit of an annoyed groan to my self, as that simply was not the case any more, as I then began to speak up to Randy, a little bit upset, if I were not going to lie to my self, as I made sure that he could hear each and every word that I was saying to him.
"Yes... We best by on our way now... We don't want to be late... Sorry... I am just a bit lost, thinking about all that we are going to be doing there..." I said to him, as I saw that he still had a bit of a blank look on his face, all at the exact same time as well, as it did not seem like as to just what it was that I had even said to him in the very first place any ways, was all too convincing to him, as I then shook my head, a bit to my self, as I was not all too sure as to just what else it was that I could do, or just what else it was that I could say, to try to convince him other wise, as to the fact that I was in fact fine, and I was really to start to head off to Sabins house. I was quite a bit upset by it, if I was not going to lie to my self, as I knew that what it was that I had said to him, was in fact true, but it just did not seem like he was willing to believe as to the fact that I had been completely truthful with what it was that I had said, and the fact that I was not lost in my head, and I was not in pain right at this very moment in time as well, never the less. I suppose that I really could not blame him for being that way, even as much as to the fact that it would upset me, and annoy me a bit how ever, as I knew that it would make sense that he would think as to the fact that I seemed to be a little bit off balance, and the fact that I was not well rounded on my feet at all right now, bad some thing more to do with the fact that I was still lost in my head, and I was still hurt as to the fact that I had lost the love of my life, Sandy. It did in fact make me wince none the less, when I even was to think back on it, but if I was to be really truthful with my self, I really was not all too worried about any of that, at this very moment in time any ways, as I then let out a bit of another rough sigh, as I squinted my eyes at Randy, to make sure that he knew that I was serious with what it was that I had just said to him. He had a bit of a surprised look on his face, but he did not say a word back to me, as to just what it was that I had said to him in the very first place any ways. At the exact same time too how ever, he still did not look like he was ready to move at all how ever, as I then shook my head a bit to my self, once again, too, as I then continued to speak to him all of the sudden, all at once. "Seriously... Lets go... I want to be back before it's dark, and before it's cold, and I am sure that they are waiting on us..."
I looked at my friend, keeping my eyes squinted at him, to let him know that I was dead serious with just what it was that I had even said to him in the very first place any ways. I was still a little bit worried as to the fact that he still might not believe a word that I had just said to him in the very first place any ways, but in the end, when I then did in fact see him nod to me, I then began to breath in quite heavy relieved sigh once again, as I saw him all of the sudden turn his head away from me, all at the exact same time as well, as he then began to head down the steps that I used to go to work every single morning, and I used to go up, when I came home from work every single evening never the less.
That was besides the point how ever, as it kind of felt like I was drowning my thoughts with a bunch of useless stuff once again, as I then shook my head, as I began to follow Randy, not all too far behind him, all at the exact same time as well, as I was not all too sure as to just what else it was that I should do, as I knew that I had to follow him, and we had to hurry none the less, as we had wasted a fair amount of time just standing there at my place. I gulped just a bit to my self, all at the exact same time as well, as I then looked out in to the sky, seeing that once again, luckily enough for us, as it was Isabelle who had been the one who had decided that she was going to be nice enough to let us off early today.
I knew that she was not doing it to be nice at all how ever, as I could see the burn marks of the place that we had been building in the back ground, all at the exact same time as well, as I winced quite a bit, still feeling like I could not help but to feel a bit bad for what it was that I had done, as I really did not normally like to destroy things. I did not have much of any other choice at all this time how ever, as I knew that it was time for us to make a stand, like it or not, never the less. I sighed just a bit to my self, as I knew at the exact same time as well, that I had to stop thinking, and I had to stop being so worried that all of this could still be a trap never the less, as I knew that at this point, that was clearly not the case at all.
If it had been a trap, than we would not have done the thing that we had done last night. I still could not help but to keep a big smile on my face, all at the exact same time too, as I then lost my sight on the building in the background, that we had been working on for quite a bit of some time, in the very first place any ways. I figured that it did not matter at the exact same time as well, as I felt like it was best for me not to look at the place with a smile on my face at the exact same time as well, due to the fact that, while yes, I knew that every one in the city was still cheering all of that on, and every one was celebrating as to just what it was that we had done, I knew that I could not join them on that, as I knew that I was one of the people that worked at that place how ever.
It would look quite a bit suspicious if some one, such as Isabelle, had caught me smiling, and me being happy as to the fact that we had burnt down that place at the exact same time as well. I had done a good job at hiding all of my emotions up to this point, so I felt like I could keep on doing it for just a little bit longer, until all of this began to get quite a bit serious, all at the exact same time too, never the less. I sighed just a bit to my self, all at the exact same time as well, as I then stared down at the ground, all at once, as I knew that I had a bit of a feeling that Isabelle had been stalking me for quite a bit of some time too, due to the fact that she had some how managed to know that my wife was pregnant, when I had not told her about it at all.
I felt like I could not help be to be a little bit afraid, not just for my own life, but for the entire rebellion never the less, due to the fact that I knew that if I were to crack a smile right now, than it would ruin in for all of us. I would not snitch on them at all for sure, but at the exact same time too, I knew that if I was one of the people that had been a part of it, than it would instantly make every one else that worked with me, suspicious at the exact same time as well. I also knew that Sabin was right with what it was that he had said, as well as the fact that he had set me up to be the person that went around trying to draw people in to the rebellion, due to the fact that I was good with my words, and I was good with convincing people to do things.
I sighed just a bit to my self, as I shook off all of those thoughts, all at the exact same time as well, as I did my best to try to not get all too worried about it at all, as I knew that it would be quite a bit suspicious at the exact same time as well, if I was to go to work with quite a bit of a worried look on my own face, especially at a time, and a bit of a crisis that we were in right now, never the less. I blinked a few times, as it then brought me back to the point that this was even about in the very first place any ways, as I knew that it was not just the fact that I was worried that Isabelle would suspect some thing about me, due to the fact that I was going to be happy, or worried.
The real reason as to why I was even thinking on any of those thoughts, in the very first place any ways, was due to the fact that I knew that she had been stalking me as of late. I gulped just a bit to my self, as I did not want to be having my self freaking out, and having to look across my back all of the time, as I knew that I probably should not say any thing about it at all to Randy or Sabin, as I felt like I still could be a little bit too over the top, and I could be a bit of an idiot. There were more important things that I should be worried about at this very moment in time any ways, such as the fact that I had to get my focus on the meeting that we were about to go and have with Sabin and Noah, none the less.
I still felt like, it would be quite a bit suspicious to her, if I was to walk in to Sabins house, a weird guy at work, for some odd reason or another, after a long hard day of work, in the evening. I looked around for just a bit of some time, as we got down the bottom part of the steps, and began to walk across the road, and down the side walk, but I did not see Isabelle any where, as I did my best to make sure, but she was no where to be seen. I let out quite a bit of a rough sigh to my self, as I felt like I was sweating far too much right now, though I kind of felt like I really could not help it all too much, as I rolled my eyes, all at the exact same time as well, as I continued to follow Randy, doing my best to try to not get my focus on any thing else at all, besides the fact as to where it was that we were about to go, and just as to what it was that we were about to do, never the less.
