Rebel Princess and the future Pharaoh

The truth of the leader, an attraction starts

Many days passed since that night, Atem would train and then he would sit with Mahad and Mana when it came to eating. He constantly looked for the girl who he had fought a few days ago, but she was no where to be seen. Mahad and Mana noticed he seemed distracted but they couldn't understand why. Nana stood up and in the middle as she prepared to speak.

"Alright recruits. Your tests are done. Meet us in the training area where our leader has a special announcement." Nana said

what could the announcement be? Mana wondered as everyone continued to eat.

After everyone was done they all gathered to the location Nana had said, as they waited Atem wondered what this was all about. When they walked in he saw the leader was still concealed but then the leader stopped in front of everyone. No one could prepare Atem for what happened next as the leader let her cloak fall to the floor revealing the girl he'd fought a few days ago.

"Welcome to my group of Rebels. Secrecy is important to us as many object to a woman being in charged. Before you ask any questions I did not originally want to be but I've come used to it as my group needs a strong leader. Now I'm sure you're confused but this group, their not just going to be your friends. They're going to be your family as that is how we all work together. If you have any questions please give it to Jake or my sister Nana." Britt said

The recruits in front of her seemed shocked to see her as the leader but it wasn't for long as they all broke it to a cheer. Jake had walked in and stood by Britt as he tried to pick her up but she kicked him away knocking him down.

"Stop that. I hate being lifted!" Britt said

Britt started to walk away and head upstairs taking her cloak with her, Atem seemed almost mesmerized by her as she walked that he followed her. Mahad and Mana looked at each other wondering what was wrong with Atem. As Atem followed behind Britt he saw her enter a room, but she didn't close the door all the way. He stopped outside her room looking at it then he heard her lay back on the bed.

"I didn't want to be a leader. My brother tricked me into this...but he's right. A princess needs leadership skills." Britt said

Atem's eyes widened when he heard her say Princess, he couldn't believe that she had said that. It made her wonder if any of her recruits new. He opened her door a little as he saw her have a closet open showing royal clothes and see her messing with a crystal with a string. She placed it around her head and looked in the mirror.

"Ugh. My grandfather is not going to control me and every time I wear this thing it just reminds me of his plans." Britt said taking it off.

So the rebels leader is a princess?! My father would never believe this! Atem thought

Britt sensed someone was near her door and she was against using her gift but she wasn't going to have any spies. So when she had enough water near she used it to pull who was watching her in her room then had the door close. Atem was shocked but he hid it as he looked at her.

"Who are you? What did you hear?" Britt asked

Atem took a good look at her before he answered, he could hardly believe she was the leader of the group. Her eyes seemed cold at this moment but he knew better that she wasn't all cold when it came to how she was down with the others.

"I didn't hear anything. I was just walking past when I noticed your door was open..you seemed..sad." He said

It surprised her that he would say sad but he wasn't entirely wrong, she missed her parents even though she had abandon her royal life for helping these people. It was her turn this time to take a good look at him to notice he probably was sad as well about being separated from his parents to join their group. She noticed his eyes seemed hypnotizing though so she looked away.

"you should go. If you were heading to your room then please leave. I have things to think about." Britt said, though she noticed he didn't leave.

"I can't leave. Someone who's sad shouldn't be alone." Atem said

Britt was intrigued by this but she didn't say much instead she snapped her fingers and soon a girl with blue hair came in. She'd brought two drinks to the room not knowing Britt had a guest in her room but she regularly brought in two drinks for Britt. Britt took one and turned away to sip from it.

"Thank you Kira." Britt said, the girl nod leaving the other drink before leaving.

"You can have it if you want." Britt said as she walked out climbing up and laying on the slight indoor balcony before her closed window. She looked out at the land pondering and thinking. Atem watched her seeing her seeming to be bored as she looked out, he took the extra cup and took a sip from it. He figured in the cup would be water but he was surprised that it was wine.

So she is royal. Then again this looked like a royal facility. Atem thought

"So why do you hide your true identity from your group?" Atem asked now wanting to confront her.

"How do you know?" Britt asked not looking at him but she kept looking out.

"Peasants don't drink wine. They can't afford it." Atem said

Britt's eyes widened knowing no peasant would say that to her, she looked at him wondering and questioning who he was. Her eyes went from surprise to cold again as she realized they had been infiltrated by the enemy.

"Who are you and why are you here?" She said slightly angry.

"I think you have figured out who I am. My name is Atem. As for why I'm here well I can't give you that information." Atem told her

Britt finished her cup as she got up, then walked over to him. She started slightly piecing all of it together. She could easily expose him and she was sure he was aware of that but she was going to let it pass this time.

"I'm going to be keeping watch on you. I know who you really are and what your father has planned. If he sent you here to find me then go home! I refuse to follow through with what was planned." Britt said snapping at him, this threw Atem off.

"What are you talking about?" He asked

"don't play dumb!" she yelled

Outside of her room was Jake and he was listening to what was being said. He could tell Britt was yelling at someone.

"I'm not playing dumb and I'd never force anyone to do anything they don't want." He said, but he saw she didn't believe him. He saw her raise her hand but he grabbed her wrist before she could swing it, but that little contact sent electricity through both of them.

What? W-what was that? Britt thought
