Prologue

Egyptian Queen of old & Neesa Swiftstone meet & introduction of Ammon

Having an extremely full house is alot for Neesa to take in as it was only her for so long when she and Tealana were separated. Getting used to the fact of sibling bickering, crying demanding babies is alot to adjust.

Unable to handle the new life, neesa has adopted and vowed to protect. Packing a couple sandwiches for the short ride in the woods. As she walk towards the front door when she was stopped by Elissia as she walked in with a basket of apples. "Where you off to?" elissia curiously wondered

"No where special...just going somewhere quiet. All this is getting to me, not quite used to the rowdiness...it will take some time getting used to." Neesa answered, softly smiled

Elissia wasn't sure how to answer to assure her friend as it is also all new for her to adjust after being the only child since her little brother died when they were young. "I know what you mean." Elissia replied, continued on her way to the kitchen with the apples.

Neesa watched elissia for a second as she walked to the kitchen then walked out the door towards the stables, grabbing the saddle as she went to the stable cubicle where Melu waited. Opening the door, stepped inside and saddled up the grey spotted mare.

"Morning girl...looking forward for a stroll?" Neesa asked, as she tied the straps to the saddle before leading the beautiful animal out.

Melu lifted her head and nodded as she softly neighed, happily and excitedly. Gently patting the mare's neck then grabbing the reins, leading the mare out of the stables before saddling upon her back and slowly trotted.

As Melu and Neesa trotted to the woods nearby the ranch; she was seen and watched by Leonardo. Curiously and worriedly wondered if neesa is ready for this kind of challenge. The purple clad terrapin opened the door and walked behind Leo as he grasped his shoulder. "Leo." he called

"Hmm." Leo Humed

"Are you hungry?" don asked

Leo gazed over his shoulder, glancing his brother before answering. "Not really...masuki ok?" he concerningly inquired

"Masuki is ok...she is sleeping." Don answered

Leo nodded and glanced back, staring the grassy property then followed Donatello inside. Meanwhile in the woods, Neesa and Melu were trotting through the grassy trail until the reached a river. Before settling down for some time alone, neesa quickly looked around the perimeter...sensing the area was safe and they were definitely alone. As she dismounted the mare's back, Melu nudged with her head against neesa's side. She smiled and hugged the mare as the horse softly exhaled through her nostrils like if she is purring.

Taking the sandwiches out of the bag and gave one to Melu and ate the other as they both settled down on the grass under a shady tree near the flowing river. Melu laid beside Neesa as she sat comfortably and begun meditating.

Closing her eyes then allowing her mind to empty, slowing her heart rate, breathed in and out calmly. Suddenly she opened her eyes and found herself sitting in the middle of a desert; looking around and tried to figure where she could be when an unfamiliar gentle voice of a beautiful with raven hair that flew like the gentle breeze, standing before her as Neesa turned around.

This woman was Neesa's grandmother, Queen Zalika. The last true Egyptian queen of Karnak from the eighteenth dynasty in the year of 1331 BC. Zalika watched over her son from afar in spirit and now watches over both Neesa and Tealana.

"Ahlan Neesa." Zalika greeted

"Who are you? Where am I?"Neesa wondered

"Ana esmee Queen Zalika...you are in the desert of Karnak and there is not much time. You know the day of the Great War is coming, don't you?" Introducing herself, answered neesa's question with another

Neesa raised her brow, curiously but worriedly. "What...do you mean the day of the Great War is coming?" neesa replied

Zalika sighed, walked closer to Neesa. "The great war that you must face to save the world from eternal darkness. Your destiny is yet to be fulfilled depending on your decision and what you are willing to do." Zalika explained softly

"My destiny? What destiny am I suppose to fulfil?" Neesa inquired, asking for answers.

"Let me show you. This will be the world look like if you don't change it." Zalika replied, placing her hand upon neesa's forehead and showed her the endless bloodshed of the innocent. Corpses laying in open dirt graves and those were to survived are enslaved.

The light around begun to dim black then the flames appeared burning everything, everywhere. Neesa feared to get burn when Zalika assured it is only a vision, as she witnessed the aftermath when the enemy and must fight that will rise again if not stopped.

"You are destined to become something that will bring the light and peace to this world and there are so many wishes to possess the power of the goddess. This will happen if you do not stop the enemy." Zalika explained as she pulled her away and the vision dimmed.

"Power of the goddess? Who is she?" Neesa replied, desperately needing to know.

Zalika softly sighed as she senses her time is drawing near. "The goddess will arise when a protector is known. Find the protector and fulfil your destiny. All will be lost in darkness, if you do not. Never believe what you see; always see with your heart and listen to the voices around you. You will know when the comes who the goddess is; when you find the motherless infant...no matter human or beast, you will find the answer that you seek and know that your enemy is not defeated and wishes to try again. I must take my leave. Find the protector and fulfil your destiny." Zalika explained as she begins to walk away into the waiting silvery mist.

"Wait, how will I find this protector?" Neesa pleaded, reaching for her and felt if she was floating

"You will know when you feel her presence. Find her." Zalika replied whispery

"How will I find you when I need you?" neesa called out

"I'm always with you...in your heart." Zalika whispery replied and disappeared in the misty cloud as neesa floated back to her body.

Opening her eyes bluntly and unsure what she had seen during her meditation, and then she assumed it had to be nothing but a frightening dream. Then she realised could it be a vision? If so, why is she seeing someone from the past? Why not someone she knew?

Wondering how this woman knew her name and knew the day of the darkness will come. How she suppose to know who is the protector if she doesn't know who is the goddess that will arise and bring the light to shine in the darkness?

Both rider and steed stood up, prepared to return back to the ranch. As they travelled through the woods, neesa wondered where will she begin searching and how will she know what or who be going to be up against. So her journey for the inner truth and challenges begin.

Bruce Wong is the name for a new of a very old man that he had taken for himself as the time of the pharaohs disappeared, lost in time but not forgotten. Dynasty of the old world is nothing but a distant memory. A memory that he wishes to forget but can never escape; the battle may be won but the Great War is yet to come.

Returning to ancient Egypt, 5,ooo years ago.

Twin boys were born to the pharaoh. One black with dark almond brown eyes and one red with sea green eyes. The younger son died during childbirth and the other lived, he was named Ammon. The Romans heard the news about the prince, question was from whom?

The queen feared for her infant son and pleaded her close and most trusted friend also physician; known as Olympus. He took the prince in hiding and did the best he could, raising the child as the queen remained in Karnak to buy enough time until her son escaped to safety.

The queen waited until her husband and Julius Caesar came for her. Searched the Egyptian castle; tearing down one part at a time, then found the queen in the throne room; praying for protection from the mother goddess, Isis.

As she prayed, Julius Caesar and the pharaoh walked up behind the queen. Pulling the crown from her head and grasping her hair viciously and forced her to stand then faced them. The queen glared her husband and the Roman warlord, with narrowed deathly stare.

"Fayn da el tefl, zalika?" Caesar demanded, viciously grasped her throat

"Ha ha...inta momkin Abadan la'a btaatee ibn." Queen Zalika answered, laughing

Caesar lightly scratched his chin, turning then walking away toward his lieutenant and glared him. "Atal btaAha." He ordered

The roman lieutenant retrieved his sword and decapitated the queen. Blood sprayed over the walls, floor and whoever stood close near the victim as she was murdered. Turning around and walked to Caesar's right side and whispered. "What about the pharaoh, my lord?"

Julius Caesar turned and faced the pharaoh, evilly smirking then softly nodded. As he walked away, leaving the soldiers to do what they will with the pharaoh, little they knew that one other had escaped. Until both current pharaoh and queen are been dealt with and the Romans leave Karnak, the power hungry royal advisor returns then takes the throne.

The queen has sent the prince to India under the protection of Olympus. Then darkness waved over Karnak as the evil royal advisor declared herself as queen, sole ruler.

Twenty years had passed

The people of Karnak suffered by the hands of the evil new imposing queen. Famine, unfair executions and evil ritualistic ceremonies were performed. Ammon returned to avenge his mother when he learned that his revenge doesn't exactly go in vain as the truth is discovered.

While he hid in India, ammon practised the way of the Indian tribes how to fight. When he believed to be strong enough, he travelled back to Egypt. Killing those that stood in his path as he made his way to the throne room where the evil declared queen sat, enjoying her meal.

Grasping the twin kopeshs in his hands as he forced the doors open. Standing the opening of the throne room doors and glared the evil woman.

"Ah, ameera Ammon." Queen Kauket presumed, evilly

"Wa inti?" Ammon hissed lowly, narrowing his deathly gaze

"Queen Kauket." Stating her name and proclaiming what did not belong to her.

"You have no right to carry that title!" Ammon barked angrily, pointing the finger

The evil queen, chuckled as she stood up from her throne and walked down the stairs, slowly. "And who is going to stop me?...You?" she said, pointing her finger back.

Ammon angrily glared the woman, as she finally stepped down the last step and circled him; looking for a weak point before attacking him. Evilly smiling as she believed to have the upper hand, ammon tighten his grip on his weapons and was ready to defend.

Queen Kauket lowly hissed as she lunged toward ammon with open sharp talons. Ammon stepped aside and kicked her in the stomach, making her to fall. Landing on her knees as she spat blood to the floor and wiped her mouth then tried again. But this time, succeeding scratching across the left shoulder down over his chest. Stepping back a couple feet as he placed his hand on his bleeding chest and lightly groaned.

"Is that best you got?" Ammon challenged the woman

Queen Kauket smirked, wet her lips and lunged Ammon. Believing that she will end this game and return to her favourite activity that awaits in the dungeon. Ammon swiftly swung his left arm, holding the sword through Kauket's torso and spun around as he stared the enemy.

Kauket evilly smiled as she stood not realising that she had been defeated when Ammon raised the blood covered weapon in front of his face, breathing heavily. Her smile turned into disbelief frown, looking down and felt her bloody torso. Looking at her hand covered in blood as she raised her head and glared Ammon and viciously said in a breathless whisper. "This is the only beginning. I shall return."

Kauket fell to the ground, Ammon walked to her dying corpse and replied. "And I shall wait." Slicing her head clean from the body then walking to the throne balcony, presenting the head to the people of Karnak. The people cheered.

Kauket was cremated and buried down in the deepest part of secret chamber in the valley of the kings. Where he prays that nothing or anyone will find the remains and dig it up or as he thought to believe...

Ammon was soon afterwards honourably declared as the true pharaoh; he was greatly respected and praised by the people throughout time until the dynasty become to an end then he travelled to Japan where he met, Beltana Gong in the year of 1786.

Before the birth of his daughters, he was forced to leave as he sensed a familiar evil presence surfaced and prayed it was not the evil queen. He saved the world once and if she ever did return this time, he is in uncharted territory. The fate of the world lies in the hands of his daughter, and she must face challenges, trials and tests as journeys through the path she walks upon and he knows that one day will come...his daughter will be forced to make a choice whether she accepts it or not.

To be continued in chapter one...
