Chapter Five- Consign to Oblivion

 

His eyes fluttered open, warily he let out a huge yawn.  He stretched out his arms.  Which immediately flew back to cup his eye.  A gasp managed to escape his lips and suddenly someone was beside him.

 

“Are you alright Sahen?  Sahen can you hear me?”  He looked up clutching his left eye.  “Jamila?”  He asked confused.  As the pain started to etch away he sat up and leaned against the wall.  As the blankets slipped off he realized he wasn’t wearing a shirt or rather he was only wearing boxers.  Quickly he snatched the blanket up and looked over at Jamila, who seemed to have lost her clothing as well.  He slowly looked up at her beautiful eyes and the pain in his eye ebbed away.  As he dropped his hand from his face something shiny caught the corner of his eye.  The necklace sat at the center of her collar bone.  “Hi?”  He finally managed to spit out.

 

“Are you ok?” she said concern in her voice. 

 

“Ya I’m good!  Well uh I suppose I should get dressed…” 

 

“Right” she said smiling she stood up in the crevice beside his bed and searched for her cloths.  As the blankets slide off revealing she was only wearing her bra and underwear, he let out a gasp. 

 

“You’re…”  He started trying to remember the fortnight’s events.

 

“What’s wrong?”  She asked moving back over to him and planting a kiss on his lips startling him he pulled away.

 

“What happened last night?”  He demanded. 

 

“Well-

“Hey Sahen you lazy a*s when are you getting….” The shirtless boy’s words faded as he took in the scene, he didn’t stop moving but simply turned around and walked back out Sahens bedroom door. 

 

“Anyways the new farm hand is here…”  He said his words fading as he walked down the hall. 

 

“Right, be right up!”  He called out. 

 

“Who was that” Jamila said, staring dreamily where the boy had just been.

 

 “Oh that’s Alan, my brother.”  He grumbled at the fact his brother wasn’t wearing a shirt mind you when he was wearing one it was a t-shirt with some intricate design involving Skulls and cross bones.  He was always getting in to trouble thinking he was the coolest.  Maybe the stupidest.  He thought.

 

 “Well I have to do some work did you want something to eat before I head out?  You’re welcome to stay here.”

 

 “Hm… is Alan going to be with you?” 

 

“What?  Oh I think he is.”  He said looking for his shirt.

 

“Well what we are standing around here for then.” 

 

“Well before we go anywhere I need to put some cloths on and I might suggest the same for you.  But first!”  He spoke playfully before gentle tackling her back to the bed and kissing her.  He wasn’t sure what happened last night but he sure wasn’t going to miss the opportunity.

 

 

“Good morning!” Randie said as they walked into the kitchen.  “Also Sahen dear if you don’t like the coffee I’ll make a new one.  Rather then you, pouring it all over the kitchen and your shirt again.  Which by the way took me most of the morning to clean.”

 

 “Sorry.”

 

“It’s ok, now I think the new farm hands are here so go out and meet them. 

 

“Them?” 

 

“Yes there over in the barn now go!  You have work to catch up on.”  She turned to Jamila and asked.  “Jamila would you like something to eat?”

 

 “No thank you.” Said Jamila though her eyes wandered to the pancakes on the counter.  Instead she put on her shoes and followed Sahen over to the barn. 

 

As they walked across the driveway a loud roaring noise sounded and Jamila stepped closer to Sahen grasping on to his arm for comfort.  He watched down the lane trying to figure out what the noise was when a black and red car came screaming down the road way.  The driver slammed on its breaks, but the car continued rolling causing the dust from the dirt road to create a veil around then. 

 

When the dust started to dissipate he looked up to see that the car had managed to stop less than a foot away.  They stood there silently waiting for the driver to get out.  After what seemed like an eternity the car door slowly opened and a girl about as tall as Sahen stepped out, she had long black hair with little pieces of dark dark red stroked through it and it hung in strait lines.  Her bangs cut just above her eyes.  She looked about 21, but there was something off about her.  She walked right up to Sahen looking him in the eyes.  He stood frozen in the spot, he looked at her eyes one a crystal blue with what seemed to be little white stars, but when he looked to her other eye he got caught in the red fire that danced in a brown eye.  She leaned in and gave him a quick peck, when she pulled back one side of her mouth pulled up in a half smile making the scar on her lip stand out more. 

“So you must be Falcon, I’m glad to finally meet you again.”  X said as she crossed her right arm across her stomach and tipped her head toward Sahen in a bow. 

 

“His names Sahen and who you are anyways?” Jamila said shrilly. 

 

“Xantara I’m the new farm hand, I just moved her from Egypt.  What do you call yourself?”  X snarled looking down at Jamila. 

 

“My name is Jamila Saxon and that.” She said pointing to Sahen.  “Is my boyfriend, so stay away b***h.” 

 

“Oh my apologies, oh great one and interesting choice in name.”  X said sarcastically, starting to look bored.  She turned towards the barn and started walking away.

 

“Oh and I called him falcon as that’s what his name means.”  X called behind her shoulder.

 

 

When they made it over to the barn Sahens dad jogged up in his overalls and his brown shirt; that at one point had been white before the soil of the farm made it their new home. 

 

“You ready?”  His dad said slightly out of breath

 

“Yup let’s get to work”

 

“I meant are you ready to meet the new farm hands!” His dad said excitedly.

 

“Well we’ve already met one, and my god is she piece of Arse!  Oh I meant art.” Jamila said with a very snobby pout lip.  Sahens dad just stared taken aback at Jamila until Sahen swiftly interjected.  “We met X, I don’t know what it is about her but she looks…”

 

 Never mind that; come meet the other farm hand!”  He said before jogging off towards the corn fields.

 

“Yup that’s my dad… always running of before answering questions.”  He said following his dad.  I wonder who the other farm hand is he thought to himself.  Jamila just continued silently behind him.  When they were nearing the corn stocks he could hear someone laughing maniacally.  “We better hurry.” Sahen said before jogging off in the direction of the laughter.  When they got closer he realized that it was X and she was leaning on his best friend Gawain’s shoulder.  As soon as Gawain saw Sahen he walked up and gave him a “Man hug”.  “I missed you man!” Gawain said.

“Wait but I thought you were helping your dad run the 7-11.” Sahen looked at him confused.

“Ya but I hate the people that come in they smell funny and there always drunk!”

“Are you saying I smell bad?” X intruded on their conversation still laughing.

“Well no… anyways shouldn’t we be getting to work?”  Gawain said avoiding the conversation.

 

Later…

 

Dude do something she’s putting us to shame!  Gawain said looking down at his bucket of corn then at X’s PILE of corn.  Upstaged by a woman! Gawain joked. 

“Why are we doing this by hand again?” Jamila complained. 

“You mean why are WE doing it by hand” X said slyly and pointing the corn in her hand at Jamila’s measly two cobs of corn.  Gawain seemed to find this hilarious and burst out laughing at the look on Jamilas face.  “Well not all of us are getting paid.”  She said and stomped away.  “Thanks a lot Gawain.”  Sahen said as he got up and grabbed his bucket of corn.

 

“Well now that that’s over with you guys want to join me and Sapphire tonight.” X asked though it was more of a demand then a question.

 

“Wait, Sapphire?  Doesn’t she work at flower shop?” Sahen asked.

 

“My god how small is this town!”  She started picking up her corn and dropped it off in the bin.  “Anyways I’ll pick you guys up at 7.”  She shouted back and with that started walking back to her car.

 

“Isn’t she going to shower?  That’s so gross!  Can I borrow your shower?”  Jamila turned to Sahen and batted her eyelashes.

 

“Ya no pro-ARGH!”  Sahens words were interrupt as pain erupted in his left eye again, this time it caused him to fall down to one knee.

 

“Sahen!” they both yelled and ran over to him.  “Are you ok man?” Gawain asked.

 

“Ya I’m fine.” Sahen said looking up to see X looking back with a puzzled expression on her face. He followed her gaze as she jerked her head to the corn rows.  Again he saw what looked to be a jackal which was impossible because they didn’t have jackals around here in fact they didn’t even have them on the continent.  He looked back to X to see a wide grin had appeared on her face and to his surprise he smiled back.

 

“Sahen!  Are you even listening?!”  Jamila accused.  “We really should be getting back to the house your probable hungry, you have eaten all day.”  Causing him to look away.

 

I’m ok I’m ok!  Let’s get inside so you can shower” as Sahen spoke his gaze flitted back to where X was standing, except she had just vanished.

 

 

Twenty-two minutes later X was heading out on the highway.  Driving at least 50 over the speed limit with the speakers blaring out heavy metal songs.  She grabbed her phone and pressed one, waiting for him to pick up she thought to herself in silence.  It must be him to have that reaction to one of Anubis’s servants, but then does this mean he knows?  And with the jackal comes death does this mean we will fail?  Or does this mean this kid has a soul...   We’ve finally found him!  A devilish smile cast over her face, her eyes turning red she lifted the seat exposing a secret compartment filled with a collection of guns and daggers.  They had been blessed by the gods before she left Egypt.  She whispered demonically at the wind.  “Set.  Your next, but this rebirth requires your death.”

 

Click “Hello Jenkins Ancient cults specialist speaking?

 

“Oh drop the act Jen We found him”

 

“Must you continue with these silly nick names I mean really my names Jenkins is that so hard to remember?!  X moved the phone away from her face as the British accent continued to rage thru.

“Jenkins!  Did you hear me we found him?”

 

“-and you know maybe you should remember where your paycheck-What?”

 

“We found Horus…”

It reads a little rough. Maybe let it lay and start the next one then come back to it later. I have to do that sometimes. Sometimes moving ahead triggers what is missing in the chapter I'm having difficulty with

[AWickedMoon]
