I watched my target form the shadows behind a tall statue as she stood there silently, a dark aura began to surround her as the bandages wrapped around her flowed in the wind. A few moments later she slowly turned her to the side, it was almost as if she knew I was there, then she slowly turned around and looked in my direction and and tilted her head a little.
She had no eyes only socket's filled with darkness, her skin rotten and decayed that I could see bones, she was no longer human, she was a monster long dead and back from the grave, I had never battled the undead before so I had no idea what to expect, I wasn't sure if I could even vanquish her but I was still determined to complete the mission, the undead woman walked towards me slowly and dragged her feet through the sand a little.
Her raggedy torn clothing embroidered with gold thread and jewel's, she groaned as I moved slowly away from my cover and planned my attack. Moments later I was crouching upon the roof of one of the small buildings in the complex as the undead woman reached the statue I was previously using for cover, I took my chances and leapt from the roof and down towards the undead woman and then swiped my sword at her.
My sword slashed through her clothing and what remained of her rotten and decayed flesh, my attack seemed to have little to no effect on her as she turned around and unleashed a loud disturbing scream. I covered my ears and backed away as the undead woman reached out towards me, I looked around for anything I could use and then I saw something unusual sticking out of the sand near the pyramid.
I moved as fast as I could across the sand towards the pyramid and then began to dig the object out, the undead woman moved closer and closer towards me as I kept digging as fast as I could. All I could do was dig and hope that Athena would protect me, the undead woman was now closer and I had finally removed the object from the sand and looked at it.
I didn't know what it was but I knew it must've been connected to the undead woman somehow, I examined it as she came ever closer. I stood up and moved towards a large slab of stone and thought about my next move, then moments later I had smashed the object against the slab of stone and it shattered into pieces, the undead woman screamed and wailed as her body contorted itself and black smoke surrounded her.
After several moments she exploded into a burst of white light and then vanished, I sat down upon the slab of stone and rested for a moment as the hot sun shone over me. Eventually I had arrived back at the city harbour and the ship I had arrived on was getting ready for departure, I quickly climbed aboard and headed to the starboard side of the ship, I had made it back just in time.
However it appeared that I wasn't alone, M was on board the ship as well, her red hair shimmering in the sunlight and flowing in the wind. "It looks like we will be travelling back together" said M as she smiled at me, she had the same strange look in her eyes just like before when we travelled here, I smiled back at her and greeted her as she walked towards me, as M an I talked I couldn't help feeling that she wanted something from me.
July 11th..
It was 16:00 pm and I was by myself once more, the ship was moving through through the waves a lot smoother then before and I didn't feel nauseous this time. Just as i opened the cabin door I found M standing there almost as if she was waiting for me, I dismissed the idea and she invited me to her cabin, I accepted her invite and after we got there we had a drink and a few snacks.
She moved a little closer towards me as the radio played some music, M looked into my eyes as I looked at her, her ruby red coloured lipstick tempted me. Then suddenly "slam!" we fell from the chair as something hit the ship, "what was that?" Said M, we went out onto the deck and saw that the ship was under attack from something...
