I wake up slowly. Today we invade. Today we slay. Today, is the day I'm supposed to live up to them. I must show the world who I am. I am the lord of blood and fire. It's time I live up to that. This war will be bloody but I'm ready. I'm ready. 

I take out the chest plate along with thin pants. I put them on. The armor feels heavy, but I can still move around in it. I pick up my two swords. I spin them around in my hands. They feel like claws but far sharper. 

"Are you leaving with the son not risen my lord?" She asks.

"I'm sorry but you know the Queen's wishes." I say.

"Of course, but there is talk. Do you even know where you're going?" She asks.

"Does it matter?" I raise an eyebrow.

"They say they're going to Mwamba wa Simba." She says.

"Lion Rock." I say.

My heart freezes. Pride rock. My previous home. My.... father. My mother. My sister. Oh god. I feel sick to my stomach all of a sudden. I feel something on my shoulder. A claw. I turn. I see Anubis standing there.

"Do not fail." He says.

I knew it was best to agree.

"Yes." I say.

He hands me my mask. I take it. I put it on. I realize he disappears like a ghost.

"Are you ready?" She asks me.

"Yeah. Yes." I say.
