Addilyn laid down next to the fire and listened to O'Connell talk about the Americans bad luck. "Three of their digger's were melted." Evie and Jonathan looked shocked "How?" Addilyn answers "Most likely salt acid." O'Connell nods "Yeah some kind of ancient booby trap." Jonathan and O'Connell wonder if the placed is cursed but Evie won't here of it. They drop the subject as Jonathan starts going through the wardens back-pack. He suddenly yelps making Evie scream while making Addilyn and O'Connell jump up slightly. "It's just a broken bottle, Glenlivet 12 years old!" Addilyn smirks "Stinky but good taste."

They hear horses coming and O'Connell get up while telling mostly Evie to stay there. Evie chooses not to listen to the man and runs after him and Jonathan closely after. "Don't move Addilyn, Evie will have my head if she knew I left you alone." Addilyn just nods and goes back to dozing. She hears the sound guns shots and knows that they will have no problem giving the camp nice bullet holes. "You're the one that saved me yes?" Addilyn jumps up to see the boy she rescued from the ferry.

"Who's asking?" Addilyn asked but the boy just chuckles "Ammon." He says and Addilyn gives him a blank stare. "That's my name." She nods "No problem, how's your head?" He rubs it slightly "Not to bad but you must leave this place or die." Addilyn moves farther away slowly taking her gun out. "Not by us but by him." Ammon looks to the sand behind her and starts to walk away. "What happens if we don't leave?" Addilyn asked loudly, he turns "Hopefully that will never happen." Ammon disappears and Addilyn sit down and waits for the crew to come back.

Jonathan had somehow got Evie drunk. Jonathan had passed out shortly and Addiyn just snuggled next to him. "I get him and her but you I don't get." Evie then explained how her parents met and why she has Egypt in her blood. "I am a librarian." Addilyn laughed making them look over to her. Evie tries to kiss Rick but passes out. "Has she ever been drunk?" Rick looks over to Addilyn "Not that I've seen." They blew out the fire waiting to find goodies tomorrow.

Ammon walked up to his father, "I have thanked the girl." Adreth glanced down to him, "Do you think they will leave?" Ammon looked down at the camp and shook his head. "Let's hope they do not break our sacred vow." Father and son look at the tomb and could feel the evil, chilling presence within.
