'Leigh' Iris wondered.
'What is he doing here?' She asked to herself.
"Iris, you too arrested for complicity" Leigh said sternly , his gaze cold as ever.
"What?!" Iris exclaimed.
"What's happening to him, he knows perfectly that I'm not a thief" she thought.
At the moment she wanted to say something. A strong headache took her like a stroke, she grabbed her head and then faint , fortunately for her Lysandre hold her before she could fall on the the ground.

Returning to Bagdaad. They were inside a cage rided by Camels , the population was looking. The poor, the commoners had sad expression.
"What will happen to us now? The Halals are now arrested by the government !" One said sadly in the crowd.
"They were helping us more than the government" Another man said.
They arrived at the section of the rich, the privileged. They were very glad that these criminals were arrested , their money wouldn't be stolen by them and given to the poor that deserves nothing. They all had a large and narcissistic smile on their face.
They arrived in the palace and they were crew in the cell.
"It's the end for us" Farshid said. No expression could be read on his face.
The other members had no expression too. They were instead more worried for Iris than them.
"Imar, what's happening to her?" Lysandre asked.
"Does headaches are getting very common" Lysandre added.
Imar approached her and touched her forehead.
"I think it's because she's not from this era. It's as if , she's having a virus. The more she stayed here the more she does headaches will grow and become frequent "Imar explained.
"What can we do for it to stop?" Dana asked.
"Bring her back to her Era. Find what or who brought her here" Imar said.
"Isn't the gods that brought her here because she is the reincarnation of Bastet?" Farshid wondered.
"It's one of the reasons that we know but something or someone had to open a portal for her to come here. You people have to find it and bring her back" Imar explained.
"She can't go before accomplishing for what she came here" Lysandre said
A weird silence entered in the cell.

Meanwhile during this time, Iris find herself in a room all white.
"Where am I?" She asked to no one in particular.
"In you subconscious" A voice replied.
Iris turned abruptly to the voice. She saw someone that had a feminine body but having a head of a cat. She raised her left eyebrow.
"Bastet?" She hesitated.
"You can also call me Sekmet" she smiled.
"Why am I here?" She asked.
"You passed out"
"Why is does headaches getting more frequent and painful " she asked.
"This era is rejecting you that's why"
"If it was like that then why did you choose me to reincarnate , why couldn't you choose someone from this era" Iris asked, she was irritated.
"I needed someone different, someone who doesn't have the same vision like the people from this Era , who can see things differently" Bastet explained.
Iris stood silent as she looked down.
"The others gods are nearer than you think,you will have to make choices that will be very difficult and one in particular. Do fast because the people of your Era are already forgetting that you existed "
"What? What do you mean?" As she lifted her head to gaze at the goddess, she was already gone.
Then suddenly Iris woke up.
"Iris are you okay?" Dana asked with concern.
She stood up gently from the old bed that was in the cell.
"Yes, I'm okay don't worry" she said with a small smile.
The members of the Halal turned to their boss.
"Boss, what we will do now? What is certain is that we will be executed and they will ask for the box" Ervin said
"We will not give them. I will not allow any of you to be executed, I prefer to die than see you all guys dead" Lysandre said.
"No boss!" They said in unison.
"We are all in together boss" Hashem said.
Lysandre was glad that he had so loyal friends with him but as he said he preferred to sacrifice himself.
A guards opened the cell for them to go out and get judge in the throne room.

The king Ashkav was sitting in the middle, Leigh was on the right side and their uncle on the left side.
"The Harams, you will be executed for all the crimes that you did but before that we want what you went to search in the cave" Ashkav said sternly.
"We found nothing " Lysandre replied
"Allow my men to go and take me and I will bring you to the Bastet Ian and the Horusian boxes"
Their eyes widened.
"You know where the Horusian box is?" The uncle asked.
He nodded.
"Don't trust him, he's telling lies" Leigh said
As the were discussing, Dana and Imar noticed that Iris wasn't with them, as if something was bothering her. She was silent since she woke up.
"Iris? Are you okay?" Dana murmured to her.
Iris blenched a little and smiled.
"I'm okay, don't worry" she smiled.
"Dana excuse me but I have to do something" she added.
"Do what?" Dana wondered.
"Accelerate things" she replied.
Iris moved toward the king. They rest of the people wondered why she stepped forward.
"If I tell you were is the reincarnation of Bastet, will you liberate all of them?" She said with confidence.
"What are you doing?" Lysandre said almost furious.
"If I tell you were is the reincarnation of Bastet will you liberate them?" She repeated.
"And how will a stranger know anything about what we are talking?" The uncle said.
Ashkav lifted his right hand indicating that his uncle should stopped and then he nodded at the question of Iris.
"I am the reincarnation of Bastet !"
Ashkav and his uncle wondered, they were even shocked by the revelation that Iris said to them.
