G.I. Genie

Chapter 19

Catherine awoke a few hours later, stiff as could be, almost as if she'd been beat up. Several women with collars around their throats ran to assist her out of what she was laying on.

She looked around the room, staring at the opulent statues and gold around the room. Holy s**t she thought where in the hell am I?

Why in the hell was everything Egyptian themed? She almost punched the women that were almost lifting her out of the bed.

"So," an older, well-endowed male said from her doorway, "Finally awake, huh?"

OMG Catherine thought, that is a big stick.

She tried to turn her head away, but the huge p***s had her almost hypnotized. She had to shake her head as it swayed when the male walked up to her.

"It has been far too long since I was last buried deep within you. Daughter, my blessed s*x doll, come let us partake of each other again," the male said as he grew harder.

All the women that had been attending her left the room as quickly as they could. All of them had looks of absolute terror as they looked at Catherine with pity.

"You obviously have the wrong woman, I know for a fact that you are not my father. Since I haven't joined with another, I know you aren't my husband," she said.

The male smiled as he reached for Catherine's shirt to remove it. She immediately reached back and slapped his hand away.

The male stared at her, reaching again, trying to aggressively try to take her shirt off again. This time she slapped him on the side of his face as hard as she could.

This time, severe shock showed in his eyes, "Anet! What is wrong with you? We need to have me buried within you to praise Baset. You risk the wrath of her if we don't," the infuriated male said.

Catherine stopped a moment and looked at the male as if he'd lost his mind. "I know not who this Anet is, but I am not her." The male tried again to grab ahold of Catherine, she hit him with both her feet. This threw the male across the room into a huge statue of himself.

"Woman!" he shouted, his hand starting to glow.

Catherine saw this and crossed her arms in front of her as a green light surrounded her. The male shot out a beam of light that hit Catherine's green light, then bounced back, knocking him off his feet.

The male picked himself up off the floor, brushing off himself, staring hard at Catherine. "That was not holy nor royal power, what are you?"

"My name is Catherine, Catherine Richards. I am afraid that I am lost at the moment," she said as she shook her head. "This is not my time nor my people."

The older male started to nod, then stared even more at Catherine. "You have the power of the smokeless, fire, beings. I apologise spirit, I did not mean to offend you," the male said.

"I am not offended, sir, though I need to find my brother. I felt him before I passed out, though I can not find him now. There are so many people that I can not pin where he is," Catherine said.

"I will send out runners to find him, what is his name?" the older male asked.

"John, John Richards, he looks a bit like me," Catherine said.

The male stopped a moment with a grimace on his face, "We shall look. Though if he is the one that I have met before, we may have a very large problem."

Catherine stared at the older male as he left, alerting a few of the soldiers as he left. Catherine was shaking her head what did you do, John?

I had all three of us sneaking toward the Palace. I knew that the guards were looking for something that was out of the ordinary. I was trying to make us as far from that as I could.

We managed to get a pretty good distance into the palace grounds. We had just gotten to the walls when a loud piercing whistle was heard.

Catherine and Cythina both waved a hand, then stared at me as if nothing had happened. I wished we were safe outside the wall, which I thought we were.

When we appeared, we were just outside the wall against it! They both looked at me as they snapped their fingers, and we appeared a great distance away.

"I didn't think that all the charms made a difference to you two," I said.

"Master," Catherine started, "it's not so much the charms as it is the mage spells."

I growled as I remembered the rogue mages that had tried to take the human world. It had been several long and bloody battles that took a bunch of my family.

Yeah, I thought, I had not a bit of love or compassion for mages. The last of the evil ones had been defeated by Aunt Victoria and her Jinn Tawney. It had cost the both of them getting cursed.

I thought about it more as I thought of the ambush that they had pulled. The more I thought of it, the amount of power used in that last battle had seemed small.

I shook my head, great. Not only was there a maniacal Jinn, his dark weapons, thousands of undead. Now I had to worry about an unnumbered number of evil mages.

I sighed, sometimes I swear that it didn't pay to get out of bed. We were at the extreme edge of the city, though I could see increased soldier activity. I had seen them before and they were searching.

I had both Catherine and Cythina hide us as even more soldiers came into the area. Damn, we would have to leave the city if this kept up.

"Keep us as hidden as you can. The mage war was not good," I said between clenched teeth.

Both my Jinns stared at me with a deep concern.

"Master?" Catherine asked, her concern growing by the minute. "I have not much knowledge of this mage war."

I sighed as I had tried to forget much of what had happened. "It started a very long time ago. It came to a head almost twenty years ago. My sister and I became embroiled in it at that time."

"You are not a magical being, are you?" Cythina asked.

I grimaced, then turned toward her and Catherine. "That, I am afraid, is a rather complicated story. You remember the man and Genie that we met before?" I asked.

"You mean Charles and his Jinn Afee?" Catherine asked. "They seemed the perfect couple, why do you ask?"

I took a deep breath then let it out. "They are mine and my sister's great-great-grandparents. I remember the stories that they'd had mysterious visitors. After that, they were cured and things went as they should." Here I just shook my head, "I never thought that it would be us."

"That explains it then!" Cythina suddenly said. "After we left, I could swear that things felt more like they should. Master," she said as she and Catherine bowed. "You are one of the major points of time and creation. I believe that we met another when the master with all the Jinns fought you."

I just looked at them as if they had lost their minds. If I was that important, then someone would have told me. I stopped as I realized that no, no one would have told me.

This, of course, didn't really surprise me as too many treated me that way. I balled my hands into fists as I felt my anger rise. Why in the hell did everyone treat me as if I am stupid, unable to handle the truth?

Even as I tried to control my anger, I didn't see the extremely dark clouds that started to gather above me. The more I seemed to try to control it, the darker and more severe the weather got.

Catherine and Cythina tried to grab my arms and were blown back from me. Then I looked at the Egyptian city that my sister was in, and I grew even more angry.

Within the city, the Pharaoh's head snapped in the direction me and my Jinns were. A wave of his hand brought forth six magic users. They then vanished as they headed my way.

Even as hidden as we were, the magic users found us appearing in front of us.

"It is suggested that you cease attacking the city," the impromptu leader said. "If not, we will be forced to destroy you."

My hands curled into fists as I tried to calm myself to no avail. Through clenched teeth I said, "You should leave before you are destroyed mage!"

The leader smirked as he released a bolt of energy. It hit before me, then bounced back, hitting the mage and knocking him screaming to the ground.

"You have attacked the Pharaoh's mages, you are dead!" The mage leader said, jumping back up. I then felt him power up, then release a bolt four times as powerful.

I put up a hand and absorbed it as if it wasn't there. I felt it rolling around inside me as I gritted my teeth, then it released.

It was almost twice as big as it hit the leader mage, through his shield as if not there. He screamed as he was vaporized, then there was nothing but ash.

I looked at the other five that were left, shaking my head, "Leave while you still can," I said.

They all looked at the ash spot that was their leader and rapidly flashed out. "Master," Cythina said, "we should go before they return with reinforcements."

I was panting, feeling the anger barely lessening. I looked at both my Jinns, feeling the anger lessen to half what it was.

I looked up and saw the dark clouds start to fade. I took a deep breath as Catherine grabbed my left arm, Cythina my right. We vanished a moment later quite a way away from the city.

I shook my head as I tried to lessen the anger I still felt inside. A moment later I felt even more powerful mages appear where we had been.

I shook my head as I sat trying to get the anger to fade. At least the dark clouds had faded, though I wasn't sure if they couldn't still trace me.

In the palace of the Pharaoh, the five mages appeared almost immediately, running to him. They described in detail how the lead mage had been destroyed.

The male failed to realize that the description they gave was of Catherine's brother. Then they described the two females that were with him.

The Pharaoh immediately sent out his ten strongest mages to combat this new threat. First there was his daughter missing, then the doppelgänger like a twin sister. Then there was the attack on the city and the loss of one of his top twenty mages.

He sat with a thud, all of this now along with the Canaanite coalition that was attacking. He shook his head, his damn daughter always slipping out. Always looking for new men bigger than him.

It was too bad that his magic didn't work against her. If it did, then they'd really have no problem at all. He reached between his legs, feeling his want for her.

He shook his head and sighed, this was making his life far harder than it should be. Why was she like this? She had all that she'd ever need between his legs.

He'd have to wait 'til his mage squad came back with their report. He hoped that this wasn't a prelude to a new magic invasion. Ra knows that he had enough going on.

Then there was this woman who appeared to almost be a twin to his daughter. It was strange as even her scent was the same.

Back in the present, his aunt Victoria and her Jinn Tawney were dealing with their own drama. As of yet, the Jinn council hadn't called on them, but Victoria was expecting them to at any minute.

After all had vanished, she and Tawney were about to go when the council stopped them.

"We know that you have as great love for your nephew and now your niece. Please remember that anger will never serve you as well as love and patience," the council head said.

Both Victoria and Tawney bowed to the council. "I will endeavor to remember this sirs. Though I have always tried to do this."

The council nodded their heads as they smiled at her and Tawney. A moment later they vanished, appearing in her home again.

Victoria sighed as she looked at the empty space. "I am worried about them, can you feel them?" Victoria asked.

Tawney looked straight ahead as she concentrated. "I am amazed that I can do this," then her voice faded. A sudden look of fear crossed her features. "They appear to be in trouble, in the Kemet empire!"

"The Kemet empire?" Victoria said a bit confused.

"I believe that you call it the Egyptian Dynasty. This isn't good Mistress. They had a great many skilled Mages there, our power isn't that effective there, though I am feeling a great disturbance near Master John."

"A great disturbance? Can you feel if John was affected?" A worried Victoria asked.

Tawney was silent a few more moments, then she turned toward Victoria with a shocked look on her face. "Mistress! It appears that the disturbance was caused by Master John!"

The worry on Victoria's face suddenly increased. "We should go and try and help him," she said, then stopped still as a voice spoke behind her.

"We could do that though. I don't think that the council or John himself would be happy about that," the voice said.

The amount of power that she felt behind her had her cringing for a few moments. "Hello Jake," she said.

Jake smirked for a moment, after all that had happened to him and his Jinns not much surprised him. "So, as I was going to say, I was allowed to aid your nephew. I was told though that I had to stay out of sight."

Victoria turned and looked at Jake to make sure he was serious. By the look on his face, he was more than serious.

"I know for a fact that nothing can keep you from helping him. You also have to remember that not all Mages are as bad as the rebels," Jake said with all seriousness.

Victoria took a deep breath as she tried to calm herself. "I know that you were in that time though not involved in the war. My family and I were embroiled in the middle of it. We lost a great deal of our family, so sorry, most of them are evil as hell."

Jake took a deep breath as he looked at all the female Jinns that were with him. For a moment he was OK, then his eyes went wide as the events of that time played before him. The gasps and jerks that he made had Victoria's head nodding.

"I didn't know that it had gotten that bad. How your brother and sister survived and hid seems a miracle," Jake said.

"It might have helped that they used what power they had to hide. A decision they made not long after their war ended. Neither had any power sas they had used all they had to hide their children. Especially after their other aunt tried to kill them," Victoria said.

Jake was nodding though he still had a look of almost despair on his face. What this family had suffered went far beyond even what the Queen had done.

"If I can, after all this is done, we will try and do all that we can. Though I'm not sure exactly what at the moment," Jake said.

Back in the past, I was still trying to calm myself, obviously I had far more anger towards the mages than I thought. I was almost back to where I had been, though I was afraid that I might lose it again in no time.

Both Catherine and Cythina were staring at me. "Master, have I done something wrong?" Catherine said with absolute terror on her face.

I looked at her and immediately calmed. "No, my dear Catherine, it wasn't you or Cythina. It is me and the memories of the mage/Jinn war, the war that almost killed me and my sister. A war that killed most of what was left of my family."

The look on my face was obviously scaring both my Jinns. "Master?" started Cythina. "There are a great many things that we could do to correct this.

I looked at her with a sad look, "No," I shook my head. "They were some of the most powerful magic users I have ever felt. I don't think that we'd have a chance."

Catherine and Cythina could only stare at me. "Uh master, that one that you destroyed? He was one of the strongest we have ever met 'til you."

I looked at the both of them, Catherine first, then Cythina, who was nodding her head. I just smirked 'til another two powerful mages appeared before me. I immediately froze, the both of them, amazed that it worked.

I growled as I looked at the two of them, "I'll let you go if you just go away."

The both of them started to laugh, which, of course, started to piss me off. "We work for the Pharaoh, the most powerful person in the land. You? You are nothing!"

I growled again, making a slashing motion in front of me, then they dropped to the ground. They were still laughing 'til they tried to do something. Then their eyes went wide as nothing happened.

"What the hell have you done? How have you done this forbidden magic?" The most powerful said, while the other started to wail that they had no power.

"Master, we need to go!" Catherine said as we vanished. We appeared on the opposite side of the city, further away from the walls.

Less than a minute after we'd left the two, several others in robes like the two, appeared. The five that appeared drew back in horror from the now powerless mages.

"What has happened here?" the most powerful one said.

"We came upon the one that had the signature of the one who killed the last mage. He did this to us as easily as we weave a spell," the strongest of the two said.

The strongest of all of them stared at the mage as if he'd lost his mind. "That isn't possible, perhaps you have the new mage's disease."

The now normal male stood, standing before the strongest mage. "Scan me sir, I do not lie, I do not have the mage disease."

The strongest started to scan the male as his eyes grew larger. He then backed away as what he felt was something that he knew couldn't exist.

He stepped back farther as each minute that passed, what he was seeing seemed to defy what he knew.

He turned to the other four, "Watch, whatever this is now. I must report this to the Pharaoh as quickly as I can."

Where I was hidden with Catherine and Cythina, we watched. The other mages moved through the area, searching, I believed, for us.

Both my Jinns had their hands on me that seemed to be keeping me calm. I was about to thank the both of them when a mage appeared behind us.

I immediately froze the male, forgetting that we were trying to keep hidden. He stared at me with shock at first, then a look of pure hatred passed over his features.

"I recognize your power, you Jinn trash. There are more than twenty mages here, you don't have a chance of attacking the Pharaoh," he snarled.

"Why would I want to attack that worthless piece of nothing!" I yelled, forgetting where I was.

This, of course, brought another three, all of whom I froze immediately. To say that they were all shocked would be an understatement.

The first one snarled at me, "You will pay for this! No one attacks the Pharaoh's mage guards."

"You are just like those in the mage war, nothing but killers and bullies. I will leave you as what, you should be, as you say, weak, useless humans," I said.

I then made another slashing motion across my chest. All of the four dropped to the ground with twisted looks of anger on their faces.

"You made a mistake, ass!" The first said as he made several motions, then the look of anger turned to shock, then panic.

"I hope that you can live with this. "I have done it for most of my life, enjoy it as you will never again terrorize the people here," I said as my Jinns and I turned our backs on them.

"NO! You lie, no one gets power like that as quickly as you say. It takes a lifetime," the man was yelling as we faded.

The strongest had reported to the Pharaoh, then disposed of the two without power. No sense in panicking the others.

He then appeared where another four were being watched by several of his men. The one that was the strongest bowed before the leader to give his report.

"What did you see?" the strongest asked.

"Sir," the man said, trembling in fear. "It was the cursed one of the mage and Jinn power." The strongest nodded his head, then destroyed the four.

With a sigh, he nodded to the others to return. He had to report to the Pharaoh, this was now serious now that they had lost seven.
