The wedding (3)

Prince Karim tightened his hold on his sword as he neared prince Koshari who brought out two daggers from his sleeves. The sound of blades hitting itself was loud in the room as the two clashed together.

Prince Karim moved his sword swiftly, and hit Koshari's hand who turned around and went for his neck, but Karim moved away from the fast attack of Koshari. Karim steadied the sword on his hand and went for his leg, but the fourth prince jumped over it and swiftly turned and gave a deep cut to the crown prince back. Karim fell on the floor groaning in pain because of the deep cut.

Koshari placed his dagger close to the crown prince and laughed gratingly. "I won again. So weak of a crown prince.... This is just the beginning of what everyone will pass through and you have to witness it, so why should I kill you now?" he stood up and placed his daggers back into his sleeve. "You should be alive to see all of it."

"Guards arrest him!!!" the pharaoh shouted.

Koshari smirked and ran out of the room.

"This can't be, this can't be happening. This is a dream right?" Queen Baketmut asked with her two hands on her head. "It wasn't Koshari. It wasn't Koshari who just took my son's place right?" she asked loudly. She looked at Queen Takhat, baring her teeth as her body shook in anger as if she was going to go insane any moment if she don't harm the one who provoked her. "You..." she called pointing at Queen Takhat with much hostility.

Queen Takhat was also in shock with all what happen as she couldn't believe her son is the same one who just committed this atrocity. She was still looking at the door her son ran out from when she felt someone turned her and gave her a slap on her face.

"You sinful woman, you planned all this with your son. He took the place of my son and married his bride. You and your son are so sinful and shameless. Bring him back here now, I will kill him myself." she yelled. She raised her hands to hit Queen Takhat again but was held back by her daughter.

"Baketmut calm down, all of us are still shock at what happened." the queen dowager said.

"Mother you are also in this together with them. You all planned this. You all planned this to ruin me, to ruin my son. You all traitors..." she screamed.

"You are talking to the queen mother." The Queen Regnant, Tati shouted back at her.

"The Queen mother who helped a prostitute and her son to ruin my son's marriage." Queen Baketmut replied panting heavily as she glared at Queen Takhat scornfully.

Satiah wished all what happened was a dream, a nightmare that will be over soon. She can't get married to another prince. She has to marry the crown prince so she can get more power and go back to her time.

But it wasn't a dream, it did happen. She got married to a different man who just acted like a psychopath. She looked at the crown prince who was struggling to move but couldn't. He was lying in his own pool of blood, no one was going to him as they were all arguing who was the cause of the groom exchange.

Satiah ran to him and knelt beside him. He lost consciousness already. If he dies then the only chance she has to go back to her time will be gone and she will be stuck in ancient Egypt all the rest of her life.

"The crown prince is dying..." she shouted.

Queen dowager gasped when she saw the situation of Karim and rushes towards him. "Take him to the palace now!!" she cried.

The guards in the hall took the prince out of the room and was followed by the queen dowager. The royal family left with them too.

Not like she had expected, her plan was a total fail. Queen Baketmut never expected anything to go wrong. She never expected Koshari to be out of the forbidden hills. Someone must have helped him out and she was sure it was his mother, Takhat. She vowed to make her pay for it. She will suffer for ruining her plan.

Semat helped her daughter up and hugged her tight. She was worried about her getting married to the crown prince and now she is married to the fourth son. The bloodthirsty prince who is believed to be possess by thousand demons. The gods are wicked to have written her daughter's destiny this way.

The chief priest clenched his fist by his side. The royal family tricked him and his family. They made them believe she was going to marry the crown prince and instead married the fourth possessed prince. Semat held her daughter's hand and together they left the hall.The chief priest followed after.

They all left except the pharaoh. He couldn't believe Koshari was released from the forbidden hill and destroy Karim's wedding. Someone helped him out and he will find that person and cut off their hands into pieces.

The guards who had ran after Koshari entered the hall and bowed at the pharaoh nervously.

"Forgive us your majesty, we couldn't catch up with him..... He escaped." One of the soldiers said.

The pharaoh banged his fist on the throne he sat on causing the soldiers to shiver in fright. "Get him. Search for him in the whole of Egypt. Do not rest, eat or sleep until he is brought to me or else, you all will be punished for it.

The soldiers bowed and ran out of the room. The pharaoh isn't one that goes against his words. If they don't find prince Koshari then it's the end of their lives. Even though they have to search every nook and corner of Egypt, they will have to bring the prince to the pharaoh.
