Capítulo 37: To Egypt We Go!
" Did you hear about it? " One whispers, " The Harry Potter is responsible for the recent attacks! "
As the gossips and rumours spread about the boy, a small group of four was having breakfast in the dining hall minding their own business.
" Hi, " Fred says. Appearing out of nowhere and plopping down into the seat next to Louis' left. " We need to ask you something. "
George pops out from under the table at that, scaring the living daylights out of Draco and earning a smack on the head from Richard and Annie.
" What do you need? I can't lend Bandit to you though, he's off limits until Christmas is over. " Louis informs, giving a piece of fruit to Bandit who is sitting on his shoulder.
" Not what we wanted to ask, but good to know, " George says. He and Fred share a look. " We were going to ask what you thought about the recent things happening in school. "
" That's not really something of my concern right now. I've got other things on my plate, " Louis says, waving his spoon at them in a casual manner.
" But what about the victims of the attacks? " Fred asks incredulous. " They'll be fine. Trust me. " Louis reassures and takes a gulp of water to wash down the food.
" You're sounding a little heartless right about now, Louie. " Annie tells the boy in a hushed tone over the table.
He clears his throat at her words, " Right. You have my word that the victims will be back to normal when the school year ends. Honest. " He crosses an X over his heart with his finger in promise.
The two look at Caramel eyes filled with honesty. When they realize he's speaking the truth, the twins find themselves comforted by it.
" Okay then, we'll take your word for it. " Placing their trust in Louis is the best they can do so they decide to put the matter aside and have their usual fun.

Christmas break was here in the span of a few days and Louis was heading back home with Bandit to head off to Egypt with his father.
Annie and Richard were surprisingly going to stay back during the break to keep Draco company since they had nothing much to do at home anyways.
" Make sure you don't blow anything up while your there. " Annie reminds as the three say their temporary goodbyes. " Won't uncle Justin be there with Louis? " Richard questions.
" Remember the last time they found that hidden temple inside the jungle? " She reminds Richard " Right, temple raiders, monkeys, fire I remember now. "
" Monkeys? " Draco repeats a little lost, " We'll tell you when we get back inside school grounds. " Richard says.
" The one time I blow up something on accident- " Annie coughs, " Two times- " Richard coughs " Alright! The ten times I blow up things on accident and more than half of them aren't directly from me, they blow up on their own! "
" Yet things still blow up because of you just being there, I'm just happy that the school hasn't blown up. " Annie says as she begins to push Louis to the train since the horn sounded.
" We'll see each other again when the break ends, so don't make anymore trouble for yourself and uncle Justin while your gone, you hear me? " Annie reminds once more as the train begins to take off.
" No promises but I'll try! " Louis replies back waving goodbye to the three.
" Right then, it's just you, me and dad in Egypt till then Bandit. Ready for another adventure? " He asks cheekily.

" Louis! Hurry up, we're going to miss our plane! " Justin shouts as he too rushes around the manor in an attempt to shove everything he can into his luggage.
" I'm already ready dad! Your the one who's slow this time! " Louis replies back following with a laugh.
" Come on then! The plane's going to leave soon. " Justin says as he runs out the door at the speed of light, leaving Louis and Bandit in the dust.
" so not COOL! " Louis exclaims and runs after Justin with his luggage and Bandit with him.

Five long hours later, and the two at last reach Giza, Egypt.
" Haha! We've arrived at last! " Louis happily exclaims with a hoorah followed by Bandit who also waves his hands in a celebratory manner.
" Okay, okay, let's put our things down in the hotel and we can head off to the pyramid. " Justin says and leads the way to their hotel.
With the duo happily heading their way to the hotel, they didn't realise they were being spied on.
" Did you hear that? " A man asks his partner seated across him. " Yah, those two got the map for the treasure the boss has been looking for. "
He says gruffly and sends off the eagle that was perched on his shoulder into the sky with a letter attached.
" Let's keep our eye on them for now until word gets to boss. " The man eyes the two for anything dangerous that could blow their cover.
" An eagle? " Both Princeton's say when they hear it's cry in the distance and turn their heads to where the sound came from.
Unfortunately, the eagle's cry was too distant for the two to understand what it was crying out about.

" Let's get moving, we've got a treasure to find. " Justin says giddily as he puts the map inside his leather jacket.
Bandit was in the hood of Louis' leather jacket to protect and hide himself from the sun and sand as well as the people in general. Louis wore shades since the sun was too bright for him to handle.
" What are we looking for anyways dad? " Louis asks curiously as he walks next to his father.
" If I'm right, we're looking for the Pendent of the last pharaoh. Legends say, that he was able to stand head to head against Merlin before his passing.
" To make sure his power was never in the wrong hands even after he was gone, he put his power into the pendent for safe keeping. And it's to be removed by the worthy one. "
" But wasn't Merlin's prime when king Arthur rose to rule Camelot? " Louis asks.
" Many things are a mystery in the world Louis, who knows Merlin or the Pharoah could have figured out time travel without the need of the time turners. " Justin says as he pulls out the map from his jacket and checks it.
" We're here. " He says abruptly making Louis- who was a few steps ahead of him, stop. " Where? " He questions as he gestures to the empty land of sand around them.
Justin laughs and shakes his head before going to a spot where sand was sunken in.
Putting his hand into the sunken sand, he grabs something and jerks his arm in an upward motion making something click underneath and move everything.
Louis heads to Justin's side when the ground beneath moves upward suddenly, when everything stopped finally, a pyramid was very much present on the sandy terrain.
" Oh that is SO cool. " Louis says resolutely and follows Justin who enters the pyramid.
" Careful now Louis, the traps here have magic imbued in them. Even if they are thousands of years old, they can still hurt us. " Justin reminds as he runs his hands over the walls carefully, examining the details.
" Got it dad. " Louis says dumbly as he studies the intricate drawings on the walls that were very well preserved over the many years the pyramid was hidden.
Bandit sniffed something in the air that caught his undivided attention and immediately decides to warn Louis about it.
Tugging on the boys hair to gain his attention, he points to the entrance of the pyramid where they came from and speaks in their minds. ' Bad men coming. Hurry. '
