Chapter26 Bella

"Ok, Who is next" Luna asked.

"Bella" Isis says having kept note of the reading order.

"Bella cant read." Scorpius says looking over at Isis in confusion. They could hear the confusion in his voice

"The book changes to the language or prefence of the reader. She will be able to read it because it will changed to Hieroglyphics for her." Horus explained.

Bella looked up at him with wonder and excitement in her eyes. She looked over at Scorpius with a hopeful look.

Luna hands Bella the book.

Bella takes the book and looked down at the words. She squealed seeing that she was able to understand the words on the pages.

"I can read it!" She looked up at Scorpius with a happy look.

Scorpius felt releif wash over him. "great so we just need to translate everything then" he says thoughtfully.

After the bombshell that Christine dropped on them about her father being the possible candidate for the sender of the note, Atem and the gang kept Christine in sight at all times as if she was going to disappear on them.

"She would do it just to do it" Melinoe says sounding amused.

"Hey, dont expose me!" Christine yelped.

Melinoe looked over at her and then grinned.

They were walking down the street when they were approached by a man in a black leather outfit.

"hello there mates" The man said. The group tensed up. Christine's hand went to the gun attached to her hip.

"Im already not liking this" Scorpius growled. Luna and Alec nod in agreement.

"Why did no one tell me about any of this?" Melinoe asked looking angry.

Atem stepped in front of Christine blocking her from view seeing the man's eyes were locked on her.

"creep" Christine said shivering as she wrapped her arms around her self knowing exactly where his eyes had been.

"perv!!" Bella, Christine, melinoe, and Luna growled. Luna's eyes flashed dangerously as she recoiled and curled up into her seat. Alec looked over at Luna with a frown. He was glad that she was doing as well as she was at the moment.

"you are one of those creeps with that oricalcos thing!" Joey said seeing the black duel disk.

"How observant" The man said with a smirk, though he looked annoyed when Atem stepped in front of Christine.

"Protective or possessive?" Christine asked teasingly.

Atem sends her a 'stop talking now or you will find out later' look.

"Possessive" Melinoe fakes a cough to cover up what she says.

"can i just shoot him" Christine grumbled keeping her hand on the gun anxiously.

"Ill allow it" Atem grumbled.

"well since your boyfriend doesn't seem to want to get out of my way love, i guys that i will just have to duel him instead" The guy said winking at her in a seductive manner. Atem activated his duel disk automatically.

"When ever you are ready" Atem said with a growl.

"Pharaoh no!" Christine started to protest.

"You just like dueling people" Melinoe says dryly.

"Stand with Joey and tristan" Atem ordered. Christine stared at him with a distraught look and walked over to the side with Joey, Tristan, and Tea. watching as the unknown guy activated his own duel disk.
