It was early in the morning. The sun had just fully revealed itself over the horizon. It was just another crisp winter's day. But it wasn't just any day. Lexin awoke with a start. He looked around, looking a little panicked, as though he had just woken from a nightmare. He felt something around his neck and looked to see a string with a symbol of glinting silver dangling from it. There was a note attached. He read it quickly, then set it down and looked around, confused. "What the heck...?" He mumbled. He looked at the symbol, which from one of his history classes he knew was called an ankh, then scratched his head. "The Sephala Laboratory? The sixteenth?" He started mumbling. He decided to hold on to the necklace, just for a while. He got up and got ready for the day.
Jasmine was sitting cross-legged on her bed, holding a pendant close to her face. She seemed to be deep in though. A noise jerked her from the clouds of her mind. She sighed and hopped off of her bed. She quickly brushed out her hair, which was dyed scarlet at the tips, then ran out of her room. "Lig kos flogah..." She mumbled as she rushed down the stairs and to the main floor of her house. "Vermaer."

Dimitri had been on his bed all morning staring at the ceiling. He finally sighed and got up. He dressed, and went for down stairs. He heard a noise and looked about.

Lexin quickly got ready and left his house, a bag slung over his shoulder. He was lost in thought and nearly ran into someone walking on the sidewalk. "Sorry." He said, and moved around the man. He stopped for a moment outside his destination, Murnia High, and sighed. He slipped through the front doors and walked off.
Jasmine skipped through the door of her house and looked around carefully before running off. She muttered what seemed like nonsense as she ran, then disappeared into some trees

He quickly stopped at his locker and picked some stuff up, dropped some stuff off, then rushed to his first class of the day, history. He didn't like history much, but after he had received the ankh pendant, he had grown curious. He walked into the class, taking his seat. He pulled out his notebook and doodled idly until class begun. "Today, class, as some of you may know we will be learning about ancient mythologies and such." The teacher explained, getting up from her desk.
Jasmine was no where to be found.

Jasmine rushed into the class. "Sorry I'm late!" She apologized, taking her seat near the front. The teacher sighed. "You need to get your schedule straight, Miss Jasmine. Anyway, we will start with one of the most popular mythologies, Ancient Greek..." She talked for a long while about the many gods and goddesses and their purposes and roles, took questions, got the class to write some notes, then changed the subject. "Next, another popular mythology, Egyptian mythology." Lexin looked up from his paper, looking suddenly interested.

Jasmine listened as the teacher talked.
"This particular mythology is very complex and hard to decipher. Only recently have we learned how to read their hieroglyphs. They have many story lines, many gods, many groups... I'll start with the creation myths. There are many of these myths, each one telling in a different way how our earth was created and why the things that happen happen. The most common one was that the earth was once a globe of water, imbued with chaos. Then, one day, the water receded, uncovering a dry hill. Here, the first sunrise was witnessed. The sun had three forms, three gods of it's own, each one considered a piece of the main sun god, Ra, though each being separate from each other. There was Khepri, the rising sun, Ra, the mid-day sun, and Khnum, the sunset..." The teacher continued, talking about different aspects of Ancient Egyptian stories and asking questions once and a while..

Kenzi put her head down. She knew all this. She had done her research even easily read hieroglyphics . She couldn't understand why she could read them.She just knew how.
Dimitri raised his hand and corrected the teacher a few times.the teacher hadn't gotten a few facts wrong. He just had to correct him.

Jasmine glanced curiously at Dimitri a few times. She played with her necklace, tracing the Eye of Horus in the middle of the sun-disk.
Lexin listened, growing bored. He started doodling.
The teacher continued to talk until the bell sounded. "Class dismissed!"

Jasmine sighed. She just wanted school to end, as she wanted every day. She didn't enjoy school, she didn't like the people, she much preferred being at home. Lexin got caught drawing and was given detention. He grumbled. The classes soon finished, and the bell rang for lunch break.

Kenzi came back for lunch like always. She sat with her friends m they were laughing and talking. But she just looked bored. She watched the ants on the table carry food.
Dimitri sat with his friends. They were all skaters. He flipped his board up to his hand. He was a popular kid yet still a nice guy. He saw Kenzi and walked over."ditch again? "He asks. She rolled her eye's and looked at him. "Yes snub any teachers today."She counters. "Ooo feisty one."He says.Kenzi rolls her eye's again. "And again you have no brain unless it comes to Egyptology m"she says getting up grabbing an apple.

Jasmine sat alone, not letting her eyes stray to the people around her as she ate. She finished quickly and walked out. Lexin sat with his friends and chatted with them quietly as he ate. He wondered if he should mention the necklace he had found but something made him decide against it.
