Chapter 16

Cairo, Egypt
Faison's Secret Hideout.
3:30pm Cairo Time

Faison paced back and forth in his study. Then he gave an icy cold glare toward his bodyguard.
''Idiot! How could you lose Lucky Spencer? You know how valuable he is to me. I have warned you time and time again that Lucky is very intelligent and have been well taught by his parents to handle any situation. You have one more chance to redeem yourself or pay the price!!''
Faison smoked his cigar then said, ''Did you have any kind of a stop along the way here. I advise you to think very carefully before you reply. We must find young Mr. Spencer before the 18th, Ari!''
''Um, we had a crowd stop us suddenly by the Pharonic village. That must of been when he made his escape,'' stuttered Ari.
''Well, then time is awaiting. You better hurry because I hate for anything to happen to you. You know, when Helena finds out you lost Lucky.'' Faison sneered.
''Yes, sir. I call the driver now,'' Ari said sounding very nervous.
''And since you been very incompetent in your duties. I will come along, so you will not mess up again. Now, move it!!!'' growled Faison.
Then Faison and Ari headed for the car.



Phararonic Village
Jacob Island-six miles from the center of Cairo
Around 4pm

Lucky followed the tour guide as they approached some models figures of ancient Egyptian shipwrights working on a boat.
Then the tour guide spoke, ''The Pharonic village is a *living breathing entity that changes day by day with numerous activities from ancient Egypt. The ancient Egyptians were not so different from us, actually. The ''inhabitants'' of the Pharonic Village have worked to recapture and bring them to life for you. From work to play, industries and festivals, there is always something new going on the Pharonic Village.''
He then pointed toward the ship, ''The shipwrights over here *duplicates of those that lived thousands of years ago and built boats for fishing, commerce, and travel. With the Nile as the major route of travel, boat building was an important industry in ancient Egypt, and so it also a prominent part of the Pharaonic Village, joining other ancient industries such a brickmaking, carpentry and masonry.''
The man smiled, ''Next, follow me to our next exhibit.''
Lucky stayed behind and stared at the boat with the shipwrights on it. He knew he was fortunate that he managed to sneak into the Pharaonic village. But he wondered how much time he had before Faison would figure out he was there. He looked around and didn't see him anywhere. He decided to stay with the tour group because it might be safer be with a crowd. Lucky glanced at the boat, one more time, then ran to rejoin the group at the art exhibit.
Meanwhile, far away in the distance, a shock Ryan saw Lucky running.
''Well, Well, I am so glad I came here instead of the Egyptian Antiquities Museum. So, the prize has escaped. It's time for me to collect my reward.''
Then Ryan laughed wickedly, and proceeded to head in Lucky's direction.



The Egyptian Antiquities Museum
Cairo Egypt
4:45pm

''The museum will be closing in the 15 minutes. Thank you for visiting the Egyptian Antiquities Museum. We open at 9am tomorrow.'' a voice announced in English.
Then the voice proceeded to talk the same message in a different language.
Afterwards, Frisco said, ''It's okay. I have arranged for us to stay longer here. For the last while, the WSB has been assisting the Egyptian government in protecting the newest discovery in the Valley of the Kings. But I must have your promise that you will not speak of word of our work to anyone.''
''We promise, Frisco,'' Felicia said as she touch his shoulder.
''Hey, Mac, please look at this exhibit,'' Mac glared at Frisco and Felicia, ''Not now, Collins, I'm busy.''
''Now!'' Kevin stated.
Then he dragged Mac to the exhibit that was further away in the distance.
Kevin said loudly, ''Mac, This is a lime stone painting of Ramses II Smiting Enemies. The time period is the New Kingdom, 19th Dynasty during Ramses II. Isn't the artwork wonderful!''
Then Kevin whispered, ''Sorry, pal. I had to drag you away, but I felt Felicia and Frisco need to talk.''
Mac shrugged his shoulder, ''I don't like it, but I understand they need to discuss the children. It makes me so mad, how Frisco doesn't put his children first in his life.''
Kevin said seriously, ''It isn't our place to judge Frisco. I know that Frisco loves both of his girls, regardless of his behavior.''
''Whatever. But he if put a move on my wife. I'm outta of here.'' Mac said angrily.
''Deal!'' Kevin smiled.
Kevin looked and saw Lucy approaching him, ''Oh, my lovely fiancee cometh.''
Lucy blushed and then kissed Kevin passionately.
Then she joined the two looking at the exhibit.
Meanwhile, Frisco and Felicia were looking at the mummy of King Ramses II.
Frisco hummed a tune and began to sing.

He's blindfold around the word to a secret location.
Where in the world is Lucky Spencer?

''Felicia, I sure we can rescue Lucky from Faison's evil clutches. After all, I am helping you all. Just kidding. Faison is smart, but we must find away to outwit him,'' Frisco said seriously.
Then Frisco paused, ''How are Maxie and Georgie. I'm sorry, I haven't had a chance to visit them for a while.''
Felicia smiled, ''Our girls are doing wonderful and are happy, but they miss you.''
Frisco look sad then spoke, ''I wish I could see them more often, but you know my job. Please tell my girls I love them.''
Felicia muttered, ''I wish you could see you girls more.''
Then she replied, ''Frisco, I will. Please, come to Port Charles soon and see Maxie and Georgie.''
Frisco smiled, ''I will, I promise... By the way, how is Tony doing since his breakdown.''
Felicia grinned, ''He has totally recovered now. In fact, Bobbie has decided to give joint custody because she felt he has changed.''
''That's great. I am ever so thankful that you were there for Tony when he lost it. I only wish, I could of been there in Port Charles as well,'' Frisco said gratefully.
''You welcome, Frisco. I still consider Tony as my brother-in-law even after we divorced. I never will forget how he saved Maxie's life,'' Felicia said tearfully.
Felicia broke down in tears and Frisco pulled her into her arms. Frisco and Felicia remained silent as they recall the time when they had nearly lost Maxie years ago.

 

Nearby, Kevin, Mac, and Lucy were looking at another exhibit. Luke, Laura, V, and Nicholas approached them
''What's this, Doc?'' Luke asked.
Before Kevin could reply back, a tour group came walking through the museum quickly. A woman noticed Kevin and stopped in her tracks. Kevin observed her name was Tammy from her name tag.
''Dr. Stone!!'' yelled Tammy.
The she threw her arms around Kevin and hugged him much to Lucy's dismay.
Tammy laughed, ''I just keep running into you. But I've got to leave, the bus is a waiting.''
Then Tammy ran out of the room before Kevin could utter a word.
''Who is the woman hugging my Doc,'' Lucy said fuming.
Then Luke slapped Kevin on the back, ''Doc, you, old sly dog. Hiding a woman in Egypt the whole time.''
Kevin glared, ''Don't you ever slap me again. And for information, I don't know who that woman is. She must of been mistaken.''
Lucy eyes started to light up and said, ''Doc! Don't you get it she thought you were Ryan! See, I was right after all, he is alive.''
Kevin shook his head, ''Like I told you before, there is no way he could of survived.
Lucy looked him straight into his eyes, ''Trust me, Doc. I know my feeling is right about Ryan.''
''Who's right?'' Felicia asked as her and Frisco joined the group.
''Lucy, about her theory,'' Kevin declared, ''That Ryan never perished in the fire and must be following us since he saw you in Canada.''
''No!!!!! Felicia gasped.
