I am called home.

I am called home.
I fall in the snow storm only to look up at good and Evil staring back.

Egypt Sand Pt.2

Clarity begins her tale saying that her and the other gods or watchers kept a close eye on the people of Egypt. Her brother Anubis watched over the souls of the underworld and was sometimes even send to retrieve a soul. But as time when on he was to retire from his role and pass it to his sister Clarity she was nervous at first but wanted to help her brother. For they were close always enjoying each others company with stories and eating together. Anubis joked with her about meeting someone to fall in love with. Her favorite story was lost hope for it was a story about Caim being lost in the underworld and trying to understand his role as a guide for others. But she always asked if Caim was real and he never told her. In doing so she learn the ropes of being the Guardian of souls. The day finally came for a boy king to die and Clarity was send to retrieve this soul in Egypt but as she came into the throne room chambers four skilled necromancers cast a spell chaining her to this world for the boy king wanted to live forever as the king of Egypt. Clarity screamed in pain for her brother to save her. But the other watchers forbid it Anubis said he did not care and was going to rescue her. But he was struck down by the others and sealed away. They worried that if the humans did not die how would the humans still fear them?  Bastet (Cat Goddess) said we could call upon Crimson Tempest's creature and the others said no that abomination would never obey us. Bastet says we have no other choice if we are to still rule this world. They agree and go to visit the house of the Guardians. As they come out of a portal they are meet by Caim's second in command Corvo the Reaver Assassin. He sit on the second floor railing staring through his metal mask watching and measuring their powers. The watchers look around asking if this is the right place? But they did not feel Corvo's presents. As Bastet stepped forward Corvo teleported in front of them. They raised they hands to use there powers but Corvo made short work of them by grabbing Bastet and smashing her to the floor breaking it than uppercutting Horus (hawk God) and last but not less head butting Sobek (crocodile God) and knocking the wind out of  him in the stomach. All three were on the floor as Corvo was about to finish them with his crossbow and sword but Tempest's voice sounded out stop let them pass they have business. Corvo steps aside and leads them to the library where Caim sat in the dark with candles lit. Corvo walks to the left of Caim and leans against the wall with arms crossed. The three watchers stand there as to go and name them selves but Caim says stop I know who you are, what is your business here? Sobek gets piss and says I can take him as the others hold him. Caim says no let him have his chance to proof his strength. So they let go as Caim stands up. Sobek tries to run at Caim. But it was over as he took the next step. Caim was behind him and thrusts his hand into his spine shattering the bone. I'd appears and says let me show him true fear. Sobek falls to the floor and shakes as a pool of darkness surrounds him with hands reaching out and grabbing hold of him. The other watchers go to step forward when Crimson Tempest says stand down my Caim. Corvo puts his hand on Caim's shoulder saying enough. Caim says ok and waves his hand and I'd disappears and Sobek is healed by Bastet, Caim sits down and Tempest appears asking what was needed to be done? Horus says one of our own was capture and we want her back. Tempest looks at Caim while they explain what was going on. But Corvo says Caim they are with holding information. Bastet says we are not. Tempest says than why is Sobek shaking and sweating? Caim says I will not play games you need me but I don't  like being lied to.Horus says very well we send soldiers to get her back but the people do not die for they have Anubis's sister Clarity which is the new god of the underworld. Caim says what else are you not telling me? Bastet says we locked her brother away for trying to betray us by rescuing her. Tempest says we will help her but this is the deal if we rescue her she is to stay here with us. Caim and Corvo get ready for battle. Caim grabs the three orbs and puts them in to his automale arm slots, Blood orb (red), Cursed orb (green and black), frost orb (blue and white). A long with his sword and cloak. Corvo grabbed his poison darts for his crossbow and throwing daggers plus his sword. Tempest meets them in the grant hall and she holds out a crystal and shatters it with the small pieces hitting the floor and going through it causing a ripple effect opening a portal to Egypt. The sun was at its highest peek and the portal opens with Caim and Corvo landing in the sand but far off the guards watch and warn the boy king and he sends out soldiers to kill who or whatever it is. Caim says they can see that grant opening so I hope you bought your bag of tricks Corvo my friend? Corvo says yes I never leave home with out it. Corvo reaches in to his bag and pulls out a cloaker device and throws it up and there position was masked like a illusion. Caim and Corvo set up camp and wait for night fall. Corvo sits by the fire and Caim too. Caim says how is the family Corvo? Corvo says my wife Mangle is pregnant with two little ones on the way plus Daud  and Foxina are excited. Corvo says what about you Caim do you have someone? Caim says yes Emily my wife but I have not had the time to see her with all of the missions lately. Corvo says don't worry you will make time for her. Well I am going to take a nap wake me when the sun sets. As Corvo lays down to sleep. Caim can feel his heart sink for he was Connecting with Clarity's heart as she was imprisoned. Clarity cries as she looks to the sealing where the moon was shining down upon her. She says please brother save me. Night fall comes, Corvo and Caim head out to the city. As they head for the gate Corvo says I can't believe we are doing there dirty work brother? Caim says well they think them selves gods but if you don't fight for something you are weak in heart, body and soul that is why I defeated Sobek so easily. Two guards guarded the gate as they were walking forward them. The guards said state your business but Corvo shot his crossbow killing one and throws a dagger at the other one. They cut the heads off and throw them in the river for if they come back from  the dead they will run around with no heads and will not be a problem. Caim put his hand on the gate and used his powers to blow it wide open. Corvo says do you think anyone heard that and laughs at Caim. Caim says ok to much power, Corvo says this is a big place where do we go and Caim says the palace. Corvo says are you crazy that is a death sentences and Caim says I know but we need a map to the city to find her?                                             To Be Continue
