Asia's restless body tossed and turned in bed as her dream progressed into a nightmare."Help me! Please someone help me!" She screamed, and open her eyes wide. Asia's heart pounded wildly as she looked around the dark room,raising herself into a sitting position she realized that It was just a nightmare and sighed with relief.
"Good morning Asia," the servant girl said as she opened the door and entered Asia's room holding a breakfast tray in her hands.
Asia pulled herself in a sitting position, "Mmmmm, the bacon smells so good, thank you." She said, as the servant girl placed the tray on her lap.
The young servant smiled, "You are welcome, but it's Dora the enchantress you should thank, she has taken a liking to you and goes out of her way to prepare you a good and healthy breakfast every morning."
Asia smiled, Dora has been very good to her, in fact, she has raised her from birth and is like her second mother. The young Druidess expelled a sigh and grabbed a piece of bacon, "Do you have a moment to spare, I have had another nightmare and am very scared."
Concerned, the servant girl sat on Asia's bed, "Another nightmare? Mayhap Dora has a potion she can give you to help you sleep better."
"No, I don't think potions will help, not this time, you see, the nightmares I've been having are all repetitions. I am kidnapped and taken to a dungeon where I am beaten! It feels almost real, I think I'm seeing something that may happen in the near future, you know how many times I have seen a dream and then it becomes real!" Asia said, "I'm scared!"
"You have nothing to fear mistress," the servant said as she jumped off the bed and headed out the door, "you have a very powerful family and they will not allow anything bad to happen to you!"
Asia watched the young servant leave her room and her heart sank, not even the servants believed that her nightmare will come true, but didn't all her other dreams come true? Taking another bite of bacon, the beautiful Druidess wondered who the her handsome kidnapper was in her dream, at least, she thought, her captor was good looking. She had never seen his face but his body was rock solid muscle. He was very tall, had thick, black shoulder length hair, and his voice was deep and masculine.

"Nay, we have nothing to fear of him, he is not our enemy!" Stephan confirmed, "tis his father that we hate not him."
"His blood is that of his father's and once he gains his memory of who he is, he will avenge his sister's death!" Tristan said.
"Aye, mayhap, but I don't suspect that he will, he is a kindred soul who seeks peace." Stephan said.
"Peace? Ha! He is just like his father, and he will seek revenge! I say we butcher him and send his body parts to his family to avenge what his father did to us first!" Seth said angrily.
"An eye for an eye? This will,never stop if we continue to avenge ourselves! We killed his sister, they have every right to be angery and want to take revenge!"
"We killed her by accident, it was a horrible tragedy, but we didn't know who she was nor did we plan for her to die!"
"Aye, but tell that to her family! They will never believe this to be true, his father has already placed a price on our head!"
"You think after all these years he still seeks revenge?"
"Aye, he has powerful allies and one day he will destroy us unless we get him first!"
"We will do no such thing, this feud stops here and now! I want peace among us!"
"Peace? You think his father wants peace?" Seth asked, "he would torture and kill us all if he could! I say lets kill his son here and now before he returns home and gathers an army against us!"
"What the hell are you all talking about, you are all mistaken, my name is Frank Witherspoon, and I am from England!" Frank said through gritted teeth.
"You are a MacNeil, one of the most powerful but most hated families in all of Scotland!"
"He doesn't remember a thing yet, but in a few days when his memory will return and his powers strengthen, he will be our worst nightmare! I think Seth is right, we should kill him now before he gains his powers! It's only a matter of time before the transition will be complete and I vote for immediate action!"
"We did not kill princess Kainaaz on purpose, all we have to do is explain it to them and clear out the misunderstanding!"
"Are you mad uncle? The MacNeil's won't listen to reason, and did you forget that he and his sisters were triplets? They will also pin his other sister's death on us too! We are innocent of the crime against us!"
***********
Kainaaz pointed the flashlight on the inscriptions that were written in the stone. "Wow I think we are on to something!" She squeezed excitedly. "These symbols mean something I'm sure of it!""Oh come on K, this is insane!" Her co worker said in his deep masculine voice.
"George, this time you're wrong! Call Sally and tell her to send Rick, he's the expert and he will examine this carefully and let us know if this is legit, in the mean time gets a translator, one that knows ancient Egyptian writings!"
"Oh come on K, if this is rubbish we will be taken off the project, and the boss will suspend us! We both need the money and can't risk making another mistake!" George said anxiously, "besides we only have enough funds for three more days!"
"I can call Kate and she can find more funds for our project." Kainaaz said, "don't worry George, if I'm correct, which I know I am, we will need to go inside the pyramid, if my instincts are correct, there is a treasure buried inside this pyramid."
Her words caught his attention and he turned around to face her, "Treasure?"
"Yup and plenty of it!"
George's mouth curved into a wide smile, "let go then, what are we waiting for, call Kate!"
