Giza

Mike scanned the expanse between the Great Sphinx and the Great Pyramid—nothing but empty desert and clouds overhead moving in from the northeast. He glanced at his watch. “They’d better call or show up soon.”

Lance nudged him. “Uh, the soldiers are coming back.”

A Jeep pulled up, and two armed men jumped out, the pyramids silhouetted behind them.

One with a black, bushy mustache said, “Why are you still here? It’s getting too cloudy for pictures of the moon over the monuments. Let me see your passports.” He held out his hand.

Mike hesitated, trying to come up with a clever lie, when a mild vibration shook the ground beneath his feet. “What the hell was that?” His eyes wide, he took a few steps back and pointed behind the Egyptians.

“We’re not falling for that.” The officer opened his hand. “Passports, now.”

Mike pointed again. “But it’s not supposed to do that.”

Lisa took her cue and screamed, “It’s going to explode. We have to get away from here.”

The soldiers turned around and froze, staring at the Great Pyramid. Jagged electrical sparks fired across the giant monument, deep humming grew louder, and the ground under them shook. The Egyptians jumped into the Jeep and sped toward the pyrotechnic display.

“I don’t know what’s happening, but you can bet Sam had something to do with it.” Mike stared at the giant structure as thousands of blue lightning bolts danced across its surface.

Lance’s eyes widened. “Whoa, what should we do?”

“If we get too close, the authorities will think we had something to do with this and arrest us.” Bryce grabbed a handle on the SUV to steady himself on the pulsating ground.

“What about Sam and Banger?” Lisa focused her binoculars on the pyramid.

Mike clenched his fists. “I hope they aren’t inside, because if they are, they’re probably fried to a crisp by now.”

“Think we should drive closer to the Sphinx and hope they’ll come out there?” Lance focused his binoculars on the stone beast.

Mike checked his earbuds. “We’ll wait a few more minutes and see if they contact us.”
