Princess Of The Underworld Daughter Of Anubis

Chapter 5 part 3

Chapter 5 part 3

Shaleigh's POV

The sun slowly awoke everyone in our camp. Evy tried to hide from the sun and groining from her hangover. She had asked Jonathan to get her some water, but he didn't want to which he got kicked by her and he hurried to get her the water. We were all hungry so I pulled some of my spicy deer jerky and feed everyone. We all ate as we watched the Americans' diggers dug graves for the people that lost their lives from last night's battle.

"So I suppose that those men will be back tonight?" Jonathan chewed on his jerky not really caring for the spicy flavor. We all shrugged and started to wash our faces passing the water bucket. "So what will we do?" Jonathan asked before he dunked is head into the bucket, then pacing it on.

"We leave!" I simply told him as I lased up my boots and strapped my sword to my waist. "I don't think we could hold off another attack from them." I started to pack my stuff back into my bag, but grabbed another bullet belt and strapped that on my shoulder, and started to stuff some Bowie knifes into my boots.

"Oh I'm sure their leader will let us stay if you work your feminine charms, if you have any?" Tamaryn joked as her and Donavan packed their things as well. I could not hide the blush. Tamaryn knew that I had a thing for their leader.

"Do you want me to cut you or something If not then cállate la boca1?" I glared my 'do you want to die' at Tamaryn and pointing a knife I had at her.

"No thank you I would like not to get cut and I will not shut up." She laughed and hid behind Donavan.

"Well before we leave or cut anyone, shall we find out who is in the sarcophagus below our feet." Evy stepped in and was smiling nervously actually thinking I might cut my best friend. We all agreed and started to go underground.

"Are you ok to go back down there?" Rick grabbed my shoulder and gave me a concerned look.

"Yes Rick I'm fine." I reassured him. "Anyways I think I fainted 'cause I didn't get any sleep yesterday." I gave a half smile.

"Well neither did I and I didn't faint." Rick teased at me, which I happily replied with a punch to his shoulder.

"Let's go underground before Evy pulls us down there by our ears." I laughed as I walked to the entrance.

"You're probably right." He followed, and then we pushed and shoved each other like we where children.

Underground a couple of hours later

Shaleigh's POV

I was a little bit relieved to be out of the sun, but being underground is just as hot as it is above ground. Evy was ranting on how she always dreamt about finding an important person from the past. Rick only teased her about it. Evy told us that the man inside was cursed for the afterlife. We all lifted the sarcophagus against the wall. As Jonathan put the key in place and started to open it. We pulled the lid till it came of, and the mummy jumped forward scaring everybody in the room.

"Is he supposed to look like that?" Rick asked Evy and she was puzzled by the way the mummy looked. She explained that he was still decomposing and we all agreed that the mummy looked juicy. Evy looked down at the sarcophagus' lid and gasped.

"Oh my, these marks were made by finger nails." Evy traced her fingers across the marks. She examined the makes and found something odd. "And he left us a message. Death is only the beginning." We all looked at the mummy in pure shock. Basically everyone was freaked out by the mummy, which everyone began to leave for the surface except Evy, who stayed behind to examine the sarcophagus, and the extremely juicy mummy.
