Isis & Osiris | Hallways (Classroom off the Hallway)
Osiris wasn't sure how it had happened, but one moment he was walking towards his office and then he was seeing stars and his head was spinning. As he staggered, he grabbed the edge of the nearest classroom door frame, trying to get his bearings as his world spun on its axis. He raised a hand to the back of his head, which came away red with blood. He turned towards his attacker, coming face to face with an unknown face, hidden behind a black ski mask. The sphinx had only a moment to glance down at the flash of metal, which was a gun, before the trigger was pulled and the prophet was shot at point blank range.
White hot pain ripped through him and he fell into the classroom, away from his attacker who no longer cared about the scarred sphinx and had moved on. With great effort he dragged himself to rest against the wall nearest the door. Osiris glanced down and could see the darkening blood from the bullet hole against his grey tee, high on his shoulder, just missing anything vital.
Before he could assess how injured he was, someone else was pushed through the door and it was slammed shut. The sound of protest brought his eyes up to fall on none other then Isis and if he hadn't been so hurt he would have laughed out loud at the irony of Fate. He knew then his sister was outside the door and while he worried for her, he knew Keket would slaughter anyone who came near that door with Isis behind it.
The way the Rising Queen breathed his name as her own honey colored eyes fell on him sent old familiar feelings through him and he opened his mouth to greet her with her title, when a sharp pain rocked through him. A sharp hiss left his lips as she rushed to his side, gasping at his injury. She came to his side, hovering without touching as she asked how deep it was, concern on her beautiful face.
"It's a bullet hole, Isis," he managed to say with as little sarcasm as possible, trying for light to break the tension. Even as injured as he was, he wanted to shield and protect her despite all they had been through. Despite her family's betrayal of him.
