NO ONES POV

After the party Dan, Cali, Ron and Verago went with Moses to his room, but when they got there they saw the servant tied up and Moses's dogs.

They then saw bed sheets out the window and so they followed it down and they saw the woman with her camel trying to escape.

Moses then saw guards and he called out to them and told them that a man was tied up in his room and he told them to look into it and the guards went straight to it.

"Nicely done" Cali says.

They then continue on and follow the woman.

When they finally count up with her they saw her get help by some slaves that helped her get water for a long journey she was taking and they saw her leave.

And Moses was impressed by her.

Just then something falls and breaks and that makes them back away.

"Oh. Oh, I'm. Im sorry. I-" the woman then looks at Moses "oh please, forgive me"

"It's alright" Dan says.

She then looks at Moses some more but at a closer angle.

"I didn't expect to see....you.....here, of all places, at-at-at our door" Miriam says "Mmm, at last!"

Moses chuckles "at last?"

She then goes to the other guy by the well.

"Didn't I tell you, Aaron? I knew he would return to us when he was ready" she hugs him with joy.

"Miriam, do you want us flogged?" Aaron says being scared.

"I knew you cared about our freedom" Miriam says walking back to Moses.

"Miriam" Aaron says trying to stop her.

"Freedom? Why would I care about that?" Moses asks.

"Because you're- well, you're our brother" Miriam says.

"What?" Moses says.

She sighs "they never told you?"

"Who never told me what?" Moses asks.

"But you're here" Miriam says "you must know" she touches him.

"Be careful slave" Moses pulls away.

"Oh, my good prince" Aaron says pulling her away "um, she's-shes exhausted from the day's work. Uh, not that it was too much. We-we quite enjoyed it. But-but she is confused and knows not to whom she speaks"

"I know whom I speak, Aaron" she pulls away "I know who you are. And you are not a prince of Egypt"

"What did you say?" Moses asks getting upset.

"Moses easy" Cali says "she obviously doesn't know what she's saying"

"Your highness, pay her no head" Aaron says and starts pushing her away from them "c-come, Miriam. May I discuss something with you?"

"No, Aaron. No!" Miriam says "Please, Moses, you must believe!"

"That's enough" Aaron says.

"You were born of my mother, Yocheved" Miriam says and breaks free from Aaron "you are our brother!"

"Now you go too far" Moses says as he points "you shall be punished"

"No! Please, uh, your highness" Aaron says going in front of Miriam and gets on his knees "she's ill. She's very ill. We beg your forgiveness" he then gets up and goes to her "please Miriam, let us go"

"No, Aaron" Miriam says "Our mother set you a drift in a basket 🧺 to save your life!" He says while being pushed inside their home.

"Save my life? From who?" Moses asks.

"Ask the man that you call father" Miriam says.

"Is this woman crazy?" Verago asks in a whisper next to Dan. But Dan doesn't say anything.

"How dare you?" Moses says.

"God saved you to be our deliverer" Miriam says.

"Enough of this" Moses walks to her.

"Should we help?" Ron asks.

"No" Dan says "this is a fragile moment in history and we can't change it" Dan sighs "no matter how much we want too"

"And you are, Moses. You are the deliverer" Miriam says.

"I said enough" Moses says and grabs her arm and makes her fall to the ground "you will regret this night"

They then start leaving when they hear singing and that makes Moses stop.

"Hush now, my baby. Be still, love don't cry" Miriam says while singing. And Moses turns around and looks at her "sleep as you're rocked by the stream. Sleep and remember my last lullaby so I'll be with you when you dream" Miriam then cries and smiles at him.

Moses gasps and starts breathing heavy and runs.
