[Oval Office, White House]
The President kept staring out the window looking at the protesters, all of them were demanding that he would resign… the President sighed in defeat. He knew there was no way he would be able to keep the position and honestly he had no intention of keeping the position.
Just last night the truth has come out and he blamed himself for everything that was happening around the world. If only he wasn't so hot-headed, if only he had thought everything out before acting… only if… he knew that he was manipulated by General Stryker but he should have known that he might be getting manipulated.
He was the President of the United States of America, and he should have noticed. That was an amateur mistake… and everyone was paying price for that. He had no idea that General Stryker was doing all of these behind his back and no matter how much he tried, he wasn't able to hate General Stryker.
Yes, he was angry that Stryker killed his wife and tried to assassinate him to further his own agenda but he was even angrier at himself. He shouldn't have allowed himself to be driven by his wife's death… he shouldn't have given Stryker the chance and he would regret that until the end of his life, but unfortunately, he did and there is no medicine for regret.
The President looked at his table, his resignation papers laid there. He had already dismissed everyone from his office. He did that last night, immediately after the broadcast. He leaned on the table and with unshed tears in his eyes he grabbed the pen and signed his resignation papers. This damned office made him lose everything… his wife, his life, and his stupid ideals.
He had already done everything he could have done… all his pride was gone instead, he was a broken man now. He had ordered every department to do damage control… it was the most important thing for now. He checked the papers once again to see if everything appeared to be in correct order or not. Seeing that all the appears were in correct order he leaned back on his chair and finally the tears started to roll down his cheeks…
[POV Reo]
After a long flight of almost 12 hours, we finally arrived at Cairo International Airport. Momo didn't show any signs of tiredness but Natasha looked extremely tired even though she was trying her best to hide it. It was almost midnight in Cairo and I don't want to look for a tomb at midnight so I decided to call it day and head towards a hotel.

There were only a few cabs stationed outside the airport, after all, diesel and gasoline were very expensive right now. He hailed a cab and asked him to take us to a nice hotel… after another hour's ride in the car we arrived in front of the Golden Palace hotel, I booked the biggest room for ourselves and ordered some food.
"I have never thought that I would be able to get a room like this outside my assignments" Natasha murmured while she was looking over the city from the balcony. Even though Natasha's voice was really low, I was able to clearly hear her.
The food finally arrived, after dinner, Natasha went to her own room while me and Momo decided to have some fun before going to sleep. But before doing anything we casted several wards in the room. The night was quite lovely for the two of us… I went to sleep with a happy and content smile on my face.
I woke up and found Momo draped over me, with a smile on my face I started to caress her back and decided to wait for her to wake up. About 15 minutes later Momo finally woke up and immediately gave me a passionate kiss. After taking a shower together, since we know we should save water and all those things, we joined Natasha for breakfast.
After breakfast, we contacted a car rental company through the hotel. I wasn't Nemuri, I wasn't going to buy a car for my temporary stay in Cairo. We finally got our hands on the car and I decided to follow Sublime's memory. Yeah, I know that his memory is very old and there is a big chance that En Sabah Nur's tomb was completely buried underground but I could still get the general location of the tomb if I follow the memories.
After about 7 hours of continuous driving, we finally decided to take a break. We also needed to give the car some rest… "So, what are we looking for?" Natasha asked while her eyes were glued to the map in her hands.
"I don't know… he told me that it was going to be a surprise" Momo said and shrugged. She handed a water bottle to Natasha and started to set up the food. We brought a lot of sandwiches from the hotel. We weren't worried about them going bad after all, they were being kept under a stasis charm.

I opened the engine hood and started splashing some water and poured the remaining water into the radiator. "The thing we are looking for won't be on that map… or any map, for the record" I said pointing towards Natasha's map.
"I had thought of that but with this, we would be at least able to get the directions if we are lost" Natasha said and continued to stare at the map. She makes a valid point.
"Ohhh… she's got a point there" Momo said in a sing-song voice trying to annoy me but I didn't mind because she definitely had a point there.
After the break was over we resumed our journey, I know we were only able to bring sandwiches but anything was good in a desert like this. The food, water and the fuel we brought along with us made us almost empty our pockets and the money we brought here could be considered as a small fortune. Well, it wasn't a waste… when it was almost dark I finally found something interesting.
After all, I could feel a pyramid of gold was buried underground, I don't know if this was the tomb of En Sabah Nur but we could check it out. I stepped out of the car and placed my palm on the sand… I wanted to get a better idea about what was buried under us.
"So, is it here?" Momo asked me in an excited tone. I could see the excitement in her eyes.
"Not sure… but there is a huge pyramid buried underneath us" I said while dusting my hands.
"How old a pyramid are we talking about here?" Natasha asked while talking out flashlights from her backpack. She bought some things from Cairo before we started our journey.
"Definitly a millennia," I said and pointed my towards the sand and a hole started to form on the surface of the sand. I used my powers and started to morph the metal in the pyramid to make a way for us. It took me only a few minutes to make ourselves a pathway with stairs made of gold. Before entering I casted several wards around us to stop anyone from noticing our car here. Even if this place was completely devoid of humans I didn't want to take a chance.
"Is it safe?" Natasha asked with a worried look on her face.
"You don't need to worry, it's completely safe. Let's go" Momo said in an excited tone and followed me. Both me and Momo were casting Lumos from our fingers for light… Natasha's flashlight was good but it wasn't good enough. Currently, we were walking down the stairs made of gold… how many people have ever seen stairs of gold??
We finally arrived at the bottom of the stairs and now I was sure that this was the right place. I very well remembered the tomb from the movies. Thank You Occlumency! We found a caved-in entrance under the pyramid made of complete gold… The place was humongous… slowly and carefully we removed the stones around the entrance and found that it was still blocked from the inside. Sublime's men definitely did a good job…
I used my powers and morphed a giant drill head from the gold pyramid. "You need to be careful… we cant cause a cave-in. The place is already unstable" Momo said in a firm tone… it was clear that she was back in her scientist mode. Natasha patiently stood at the back taking some notes on Momo's tab…
The drill head started to spin in a slow manner and we started to dig through the debris. We carefully followed the drill head… for extra security I also morphed some gold dust from the pyramid to protect ourselves if another cave-in happens. We finally arrived in a giant ritual chamber filled with several mummies laying around the floor and two very well-preserved bodies were laying on the ritual table. I saw that one of the bodies was being protected by a translucent blue barrier…
"Ladies, I give you the tomb of En Sabah Nur, the first meta-human" I said in a dramatic fashion…
