“Richard, before we go any further, where are your desert robes?”

“Ah . . . I put them in the satchels.” We take them out and put them back on.

“So, what did you discover, Najid?”

“I was able to track their path toward Thuban. Their path steered away from the Polar Star in the Little Dipper toward Draco. I did observe some unusual star movement. It appeared as if the stars in the Draco Constellation got pulled toward Thuban. So what did happen up there, Richard?”

“We had an encounter with Thuban himself, a star dragon.”

Everyone has a surprised look on their faces, “What?”

“There are life forms within the stars. From our perspective the animals we imagined in the star groups contain those animal spirits. That means, the seventy-six stars in the Draco constellation contain dragon spirits. They will be here when the Ultimate Last Battle takes place.”

“You mean to tell me, that Scorpio, Aquila, Canis Major and Canis Minor to name just a few will be here to defend our Earth when Azazel brings his demon horde?”

I smile, “That’s right, my friends..”

“Whoo hooo!! All right!! Praise to the Creator!!! Azazel will certainly be surprised with that turn of events!!”

Najid smiles, “So, what did happen when Thuban flared up?”

“Well, all of the 76 star dragons blew their flames at us as we passed through it. Thuban said I will be able to control the blue flame better when I join with my Anti-brother.”

“What is the blue flame, Richard?”

“The fourth element for me to learn is to control fire. It is the same way in the movie, The Avatar World with the element benders. Every Shaolin Dragon Master has the ability to learn the five elements if they are in total focus. I can do two of them with ease, air and water. The other three are earth, fire and spirit.”

“I didn’t realize they can do that. Usually, I know they are very good in the martial arts. They are very dangerous in a fight.”

“The blue flame is aiding the yin side, or the bad side of you. The yang side is the good side. It is the dichotomy of the black and white symbol. But, you must be in total yin yang control to use the blue flame. If you are not in control, your anger will rule you.”

“That explains the bad side of the Muslim belief system. All of these Intifadas and Holy Wars with the West and Israel is their anger being acted out. They are controlled by this anger. It is the peace loving Arabs who want none of that, because they know if a Caliph tries to rise above the rest of us, they know there will be constant war with everyone else in the world. That is what happened during World War Three.”

Everyone thinks hard on what the tour guide just said.

“Well, we must be going, we have some touring to do in Egypt for about five days.”

The tour guide smiles, “Then let your touring be a successful adventure. And it already started out with this sunrise event. Salem, Salem to everyone! You have made my life more complete now, Richard.”

“You’re welcome, sir.”

We shake our hands quickly and share a few hugs. We pack away the equipment into the car trunk and get into the car. Najid drives away from the pyramid complex.

~~~000~~~

What we didn’t see is a car pulling into the parking lot as we leave the tourist guide. An Arab in western clothes gets up and takes a picture of us with his cell phone before we get into the car. He gets back in and gets on his cell phone. He makes a call as he sends our pictured group to his friends. He follows us and keeps his distance far from us not to be noticed right away.

~~~000~~~

“So, where are we going to next, Basel?”

“We’ll be visiting some temple complexes in the desert near Luxor. We’ll be back here for a proper tour of the pyramids. Also there will be a night spent on a boat going down the Nile from Luxor.”

Brianna speaks up, “So, there will be a romantic night on the Nile.”

“That’s the intent, Miss Brianna.” Smiles Basel.

Brianna takes my hand and squeezes it tightly.

Najid takes us back to the hotel. We get our luggage and check out of the hotel. We did tell the concierge that we’ll be back in three days to finish our five day tour. He gladly makes a note to keep our rooms reserved.

We load up the car and ourselves. Najid takes us to Cairo International. We arrive in the same hangar as before. We find the jet is already fueled up for the trip to Luxor. We get on board and load up the jet.

The pilot taxis out to the tarmac and gets in line with the other jets waiting to take off. Once the pilot gets clearance for take off, the pilot revs the engines and zooms down the runway. The nose tilts up and takes off in the air. The pilot makes a turn and heads south to Upper Egypt.

~~~000~~~

A driver gets on the cell phone to contact his friends. “So, what is the news?”

“It is him. He’s the one who wiped out the world debt. Where is he now?”

“They took off in a private jet and headed south.”

“To the south? Okay, we’ll make contact with our fighters in Luxor. The full leadership will be there personally. Hopefully an opportunity arises we find them alone. Praise to Allah. Soon we’ll be rich once more and strike back at our weak Prime Minister. After that, the Desert Laws are in full force once more!”

“Yes, praise to Allah!”

The driver closes his cell phone and drives away from the airport.

~~~000~~~

The jet lands in Luxor International about 35 minutes later. The jet taxis to the southeast end of the airport. Once the jet comes to a stop, a limousine drives up and parks near it.

“Wait here until it is clear.”

“Yes, Basel.”

Basel exits the jet once the door opens and the steps are in place. He walks to the limousine. The door opens and a man comes out to greet him.

“Are the special guests robed?”

“They are.”

“That’s good. I have been monitoring the airwaves and the internet here. I hear the Last Brigade is making a move to kidnap someone.”

“Do you think it is our special guest?”

“I think so, Basel. What do you want to do?”

“Let’s lead them to a remote desert temple. If they want to kidnap him, it will be under our terms. Have the Egyptian Police informed of what is going to happen. From what I have been told, our special guest will have them screaming in fear and pain.”

“Heh, heh, heh, . . . now that I would like to see happen. Then the Last Brigade of Allah will finally end the terrorism in the region. It will strike fear to anyone else who might try this again.”

“Heh, heh, heh, so would I, Salih. Is the hotel reservation still valid?”

“It is, Basel. I just checked it this morning at the Isis Hotel. Did anything happen this morning?”

“We’ll tell you all about it to the hotel. You’ll love this story.’

Basel turns around and boards the jet. He looks at us intently. “Bad news everyone, The Last Brigade knows that Richard is here. We think they will make an attempt to kidnap you. But we have a plan so it would be on our terms. We’ll make a visit to a remote desert temple. There you can take care of them, Richard.” Basel smiles at me.

“I get it. Are the police going to be there?”

“They will be there to make the arrests. They have been a thorn in their sides and ours. This group is the one who wants to purchase more rockets and bombs to terrorize Israel especially.”

We exit the jet and walk toward the limousine.

“My name is Salih. I am another agent here.”

“Yes, sir.”

Salih opens the door. Our luggage is brought out from the jet and placed in the trunk of the car. Surprisingly, there is plenty of room for all of our luggage. We all pile into the stretch limousine. Salih closes the door and gets behind the wheel of the limo.

“I see our numbers are increasing here. How many rooms am I paying for this trip, Gavri?”

“Just one, Richard. We’ll be split in two rooms on either side of you. Mossad has been picking up the tab here for our rooms.”

“Thank you, HaShem, for your generosity.”

Everyone chuckles and a giggle from Brianna at my joke.

“We’ll check in first at the Isis Hotel and get our stuff put away. Then we’ll drive out to a temple in the desert. We need to take care of them before they cause anymore problems.”

“Yes, Basel.”

“So, what did you have to do prove yourself, Richard?”

“We produced the unicorn images and our wings. I also told the Egyptian and Hindu gods my story as well. I produced the images of everyone I have met. I can use any image I want to create an invincible army that can’t be killed. After that, I was tested by Indra and Hapi on my fighting skills.”

“You were tested by the god of the Nile and Indra from the Hindus?”

“I was, Gavri. Indra sent a lightning blast at me. I used my sword to absorb the lightning blast. Then I sent it to Hapi’s one hundred foot diameter water ball. He tossed the water ball at me. Then I took control of the lightning water ball. Split it into two water orbs and sent the water orbs at them very fast. They were able to defend that.”

I continue with my story until we left their world.

“That is an incredible story, Richard. I mean, you met Atem from the Yugioh series, you met some very powerful gods there. And yet, I am getting confirmation from my inner voice from HaShem that you are telling the truth.”

“Yes, sir.”

We arrive at the Isis Hotel in Luxor. In appearances, it appears I have a large group of body guards with us. Most people give a quick glance toward us then they go back to their own business. Basel checks us in with no problems. We are assigned three rooms on the third floor. They are all next to each other. Since we are early we can not enter our rooms until 1 PM. We get back into the limousine and drive out to one of the temples in the area. Salih gets on his cell phone and calls the local police. They appreciate the tip of the kidnaping attempt. They agree to meet us at a remote desert temple by 11 AM.

Salih drives around for an hour. We noticed we have four cars following us to the desert temple. Behind them are the Egyptian Police with ten cars in their caravan.

We arrive at the desert temple and park the limousine. We get out and walk through the ruins. We look for a nice open area. We soon find a large courtyard. There is sand all around. I walk out to the middle of the courtyard. Everyone else gathers on one side of the complex. The four cars come in and park in another area not far from the parking lot. Twenty men get out of the cars. They open the trunk and take out their heavy assault weapons of machine guns, pistols, and one rocket launcher designed for shoulder carry.

They enter the complex and proceed to get in a circle around the courtyard. The police come in without sirens and lights. They park near the four cars. Twenty men get out of the ten police cars. They get themselves loaded up with weapons as well. They hold still and wait for the right moment to come in.

The Last Brigade members slowly walk into the courtyard. “We are the Last Brigade of Allah, Richard Moore. We are here to kidnap you. We want you to give us our money that is owed to us.”

“I’m sorry to hear that, sir. However, there is nothing I can do about it.”

“We figured you might say that, so we’ll ransom you to the highest bidder.”

“Then what? Will you kill me?”

“Yeah, we thought about that too. So, are you coming?”

“Nope, because what I am about to do, is to really scare you so won’t do this again.”

“Hah! You don’t scare us. Look at you! Your body guards are no where to be found. They left because they are scared of us.”

“I don’t think so, sir. They left so they can watch what I am going to do to you.”

“That’s enough! We are taking you now!”

They all walk in closer to me. As soon as they are fifty feet from me. I swing my arms in a quick motion.

All of a sudden a dusty tornado is created in the courtyard. I make it big enough so it encompasses the courtyard. I let the sand come in and bury their feet and lower calf legs so they can’t move.

“What? Where did that sand tornado come from?”

“We can’t see through it.”

“Like I said, now I am going to scare you!”

They raise their weapons at me.

“Hah! We are not afraid of this sand tornado!”

“Then look at your feet.”

The look down. “No! We can’t move!”

While they are looking down, I create another sand tornado around me. Gauntlets on! Both of my gauntlets appear on me in a blink of an eye. All freeze darts hit them in the neck and return to gauntlet. I shoot out 20 freeze darts. “Thwip! Thwip! . . .”

The darts stick into their necks and return back to the gauntlet. “Thoo! Thoo! . . . .” “Thwip! Thwip! . . .”

“We can’t move! What is going on, Richard?”

“Now I am going to really scare you!” Dragons, come out and appear as sand dragons. Blow out hot flames and warm them up!

The dragons I have met come out of me. They have the appearance of dragons covered in sand.

The terrorists all get wide-eyed with fear. “ARRRRGGgghhh!!! Dragons!!!”

“Kill them!!”

They take their weapons and point them at the dragons. They shoot out live rounds at the dragons. The dragons absorb the bullets with ease. Then the hot bullets drop to the ground. The sand dragons keep twisting and curling toward their prey. They shoot hot flames at them!!!

“FFFWWWWWOOOOSSSSSHHHH!!”

The terrorists all scream in pain and in horror! “NOOOOooooo!!!” “ARRRRRGGhhhh!!!” “The pain!!! My skin is on fire!!”

“Stop it!!”

“No way, Last Brigade!! You are all getting torched!!”

“ARRRRRGGGGHHHHhhhh!!” Help me!!! I’m on fire!!!”

They drop their weapons to the ground and bend at the knee. I walk up to the one who is speaking the most. He looks up at me shaking very badly. The dragons drop the sand around them and the bullets within themselves before they return back into my body.

“How dare you use people as your human shields! When you do that, you are showing to the world the cowards you really are! You refuse to take responsibility for your own actions! You pick on people to get them riled up and angry at you! Then you blame them to be the aggressors!! Is that right?”

“Yes! Yes! Yes! That is right. We were taught to be underhanded in our dealings with our enemies.”

“Well, it ends right now! You will no longer teach hatred and murder to your children to be your next generation fighters. Here is a new question. Who taught you hatred in the very beginning?”

“We don’t know! Are you implying you do know?”

“I do, sir! It began with the first one! King Azazel or his common name is Lucifer!”

“NOOOOooo!! That’s a lie!!”

I wave my hand above me. A dark cloud appears nearby. Soon, the smoldering red eyes appear on the throne. I don’t have to look at him. “Is he one of your disciples, King Azazel?”

“He is Richard. I am totally disgusted with their ineptitude. I can always find more beings who will carry out my hatred campaign. Have no worries, when I come to your Earth, I will definitely destroy it and the Creator’s Creation. That is my promise from the beginning.”

“As you know, King Azazel, we’ll be ready for you and your horde.”

“I know, you will try to defend the weak. But my darkness of hatred will engulf all hope.”

“Well, we can argue some more, but I will end it.”

“Yeah, I am tired of seeing this sorry excuse of a fighter. See you in the future, Richard.”

“Until then, King Azazel.” I wave my hand and arm again without looking at him. The dark cloud disappears.

~~~000~~~

King Azazel grumbles on his throne. “How does he do it? He got me to tell the truth, Appolyn!!! ARRRRrrrrgghhhh!!!”

“I don’t know, sir. I hate it too.”

~~~000~~~

Gauntlets, return to cabin closet. The gauntlets return to the cabin closet in a blink of an eye. I end the sand tornado by lifting the sand around their feet as well. They all crumple to the ground shaking in fear.
“Noo!!! “Help me!!” “I am on fire!!”

However, they are not on fire. You do see steam rising from their bodies. The Egyptian Police quickly enter the courtyard to make the arrests.

“Last Brigade of Allah, you are all under arrest!!” The police come in and handcuff the last twenty members of the Last Brigade of Allah. They also take their weapons. The captain walks up to me.

“Thank you for your help, Richard. We are glad to get this last group of hatred. There should be peace in the region from now on.”

“You’re welcome, captain.”

We shake hands. “I have no worries, Richard. I can hear the voice of the Creator. I heard him for the first time about two years ago when I visited Israel as a tourist.”

I smile at him, “Then spread that connection, sir.”

He smiles back, “I’ll certainly will.”

The police take them away in the police cruisers. The other four cars are commandeered by the officers. They drive to the police station in Luxor. They call Cairo and inform of them of the good news on the latest arrests.

My group and Brianna come up and gather around me.

“Well, now we can have a normal and quiet tour of Egypt.”

We all laugh and giggle. Brianna takes my hand as we follow our hosts. He explains the temple complex we are in. It is the Sun Court near the Luxor Temple of the ancient city of Thebes.
