Memoirs of the Pharaohs

"Very well, a private feast it shall be," said the Charioteer.

Sally smiled at the kiss, then blushed a little. "I don;t think you'll find it that hard!" she joked.

"I know it's easy to do and every time you blush I want you even more. Do you think they know about my powers?" Jenny had more questions but she wasn't sure it was the right time to ask them now.

"S-stop it!" squeaked Sally as she was blushing more, but smiling. "And... I don't know... maybe... It could be... could..." Sally's words trailed off as they entered the city. It wasn't the city that took her breath away, it was because of the two massive statues outside a large temple. Statues of Jenny and Sally, albeit in Egyptian garb.

"Okay not sure if this is super cool or super freaky! Where the fuck are we?" Jenny was getting scared, not a good feeling in her case being scared meant losing control of her pyro powers and she did not suddenly burst into flam.

"I... don't know," said Sally staring at her statue. "But I think I kinda like it here!" The chariot passed through bowing crowds came to a stop next to the palace.

Jenny took a deep breath. "I don't know if I do, but then all I can think of is food. I guess since we are the Queens no need to ask for permission, let's go." Jenny took Sally's hand again and went into the palace.

"Food sounds good to me," said Sally, trying to remember when she'd actually last eaten. As the girls reached the palace doors they were opened for them

Sally gasped as she stepped inside, marvelling at the gold decorations around the hall. "This is amazing!" she breathed. She was so distracted looking around, that she almost missed the figure running towards the two girls. Then she saw it was a small girl, around five years old. She had her hair in a typical Egyptian style, but her face closely resembled Jenny's. Except for her eyes and her smile, which looked almost identical to Sally's.

Jenny starred at the girl. "Sally! I'm sure at some point I had sex ed in my short school time. How the fuck is this possible?" Jenny was breathing quickly, by now the odd flame was erupting from her body.

"I..... I don't know..." said Sally, completely shocked by the little girl. "It's unbelievable... This can't be real!"

The little girl smiled as she reached the girls. "Mommy! Mama! You're back! I missed you SOOOO much!" She tried to hug both girls.

Jenny wanted to scream and run, but at the same time she wanted answers. Was she Mommy or Mama?

"Hi. Yeah good to see you what's your name again kiddo, it's been so long since I saw you."

The little girl giggled. "Silly Mama! You should know my name! It's Sekhmet!" She beamed at both girls as she hugged.

Sally felt confused. On one hand it was impossible for her to have a kid like this suddenly. On the other, it probibly wasn't the child's fault, and she didn't want to upset her. She knew what it was like to have a parent reject you. She hugged Sekhmet back.

"Interesting, clearly Mommy named you. Sekhmet help your silly Mama where do we normally have private feasts? I got to much sun, I forgot a few things." Jenny grinned, this was all weird she had been on a roller-coaster of emotions but at least now that she saw that her and Sally had a daughter together she could hold the other girl's hand again. Their daughter had an advantage Jenny loved kids. She had practice in the last months with Dirk's. "Also Sekhmethow long have we been gone? I feel like you've grown. Did you get prettier?"

Jenny leaned close to Sally. "Completely freaky! But we make pretty babies. We got to keep this in mind. I never thought I'd have kids at all but seeing this I might change my mind."

Sekhmet giggled. "I thought you liked sun Mama! And we have feasts this way." Sekhmet took both girls by the hand and started skipping through the palace. "You've been gone MONTHS Mama! You were s'posed to come back days ago but Himoshep said something 'bout raiders! What are raiders?" She giggled. "I'm an inch taller now. And you said before I couldn' get prettier!"

"I... I guess we do," said Sally, starting to smile. Finding out she and Jenny had a kid was a shock, but, she had to admit she found the child adorable. "I'm... not sure we can make it happen again though."

"I like the sun that's what makes me feel so odd. Sekhmet did we always live here just the three of us?" Jenny didn't mind anymore where they were and if Sally and she would get home this was pretty cool. Sally and her were swinging Sekhmet back and forth between them.

Jenny looked at the smiling Sally. "What if we stay here?" She wasn't sure where that was coming from and she knew to stay was insane... But why not? Why not change a shit live with a live in which they were Queens?

"Of course we lived here Mama! You've always been Pharaohs!" Sekhmet looked worried. "Are you okay Mama?"

"Stay here?" repeated Sally. He face lit up. Her she had wealth, power, and most importantly, Jenny. Not only that, but Jenny without the baggage from her family. Yes, there was the little complication of sudden motherhood, but Sally felt she wouldn't mind... quite the opposite. "I'd love to!"

Led by their daughter they reached a festive looking room and to Jenny's surprise there were hundreds of dishes on the table. "Oh. My. God. I never thought I am so happy to see food." Jenny let go of Sekhmet's hand and ran to the table amazed by the variaty of the food. She just tried anything she could reach.
She wanted to stay with Sally here, she do did... but at the same time she so wanted her dad to meet this cute little girl. But how could she tell Sally that, Sally got all grumpy as soon she mentioned her dad, how could she tell her girlfriend that she would miss him and Dirk, and his kids. "I'd love to stay here. Would you miss anything from home if we would stay here? Not sure we could ever fulfil your fantasy. I would miss Dirk, his kids and... stuff." Jenny looked at the food again. This was horrible, she got a chance of happiness and it was with a girl that had a personal vendetta against Jenny's father. "Why do you hate him so much?" She whispered.

A servant brought Jenny a variaty of valuable looking clothes and she chose the red an orange one.

Sekhmet giggled seeing Jenny's enthusiasm, attacking the dishes with a similar relish.

Sally just stood amazed for a moment, before taking a plate and selecting what dishes looked the nicest to her. She stayed as close as she could to Jenny, as if worried she might suddenly fly away. "Miss anything? Well... maybe my tech... or maybe I could just invent it!" she said with a wink. Her smile faded as Jenny kept on. It was pretty clear she wouldn;t be happy staying, and pretty clear what 'stuff' meant.

She gave a sigh, then just heard Jenny's whispered question. She put down the plate of food she had.

"Your daddy took my daddy away," she replied, her voice breaking, sounding almost childish.

Jenny starred at her unsure what to say. "I'm sorry he did. I mean it I would love to stay here but I can't deny that I would miss them, or at least the idea. Let's make a deal. We stay in the here and now for the moment and see what happens, we don't stop trying to get back but we also ways or time by searching a way."

"That... that sounds good," said Sally, poking at the food on her plate a bit. She was lying, and it was pretty clear. It was obvious that Sally had no desire to return home at all.

Jenny sighed why could she not just lied and said there is nothing she would miss.

"Listen I know what it feels like to have nothing and I understand that you hate the baggage I come with. I'm still getting used to it, at least you have me now and I do want to be where ever you are. And if we do get back I will look for any information why my dad put your dad into prison. And I will hate him if he done it wrongly." Jenny created a single spark and let it run along Sally's neck.

"I... I don't think... your father was wrong," replied Sally. "But it destroyed my whole life." Sally was about to explaine more when she felt the spark on her neck. Despite her sadness, she let out a happy sigh.

"Well I died and got brought back for some super plan. I'm mot trying to make your life look less bad but you are a strong person and your past is a part of you not what identifies you. And I totally ignored what group you are hanging out with. I bet they wouldn't be thrilled to find me in your bed." Jenny kissed Sally. "It was your pink hair that caught my eye. I figured there must be something good in you. Any idea what a pharaoh did all day? Can we order some games to watch?"

"I doubt they would like it, but it's not like I'm gonna tell them. We're not what you call friends," said Sally. "And you... really died? What... what was it like?" she asked curiously. "You... thought pink hair makes me good?" she added surpried.

"I.. think it was the romans wow ordered games, but as Pharaohs are seen as gods, we can probibly do what we wish!"

Jenny a shadow fell over her face when looked away. "Dying is great. Especially the part about the after life. There is nothing! No light. No he'll. No heaven. Just nothing a big vacuum. And then I woke up for about a second I was relieved and then all those false memories came crushing down on me and I realised I'm in a coffin, it got better I was alone followed by a voice in fucking December in New York. Yeah dying was definitely the best part. Scrutinising pain when the bus hit me and broke about a third of my bones and turned my insides into soup. Fun times. Dammit I wish I could order some gladiator fights to watch now."

Sally listened with rising horror. She slid her arms around Jenny and hugged her tight. "I'm so, so sorry," she whispered
