Matana walked quietly through the streets, munching on the fruit she had stole for breakfast. She could steal something from one of the stalls that were just open up at this early hour of the morning. If she did that she ran the risk of being caught. Just like last time. She frowned as she remembered the botched pick pocketing attempt of a month ago. She had promised that man that she wouldn’t steal any more. That promise lasted all of 1 day.
I could always go straight and buy what I want. She mused as she looked at the fruit stands hungrily. But then I would have to let myself be seen by the shop keepers and other buyers. So both ways are a risk but which is more so?
Matana stopped to think about that in the shadows, well out of sight of any one who might be looking for her. She had another name too, ‘Lapis’ which is what she gave the boy who caught her when he asked. Matana never gave out her real name to anyone. Only her parents would know that.

Shadow was walking around looking at a map of the valley of the kings. She always wanted to see King Tut's tomb, ever since she saw his body on display back in America. "Hmm Where would that tomb be", she muttered to herself as she folded the map back up and put it in her pocket. Then she started to walk around looking at the stalls for something cool to bring back to her dad. 'I wonder if I should bring him something like a cat statue', she thought as she was looking at a cat statue with ruby red eyes on it.

Matana was watching tourist girl with a map take off in the crowds from her place in the shadow of a side street. She pondered as she took off fallowing her at fairly close distance.
This one doesn’t seem to be paying attention at all it should be easy to grab her wallet and run. She looked at the touristy woman with a shake of her head. What pocket would it be in? Ummm, the right one.
Matana snuck up close behind the woman and slipped her fingers in the back pocket of the women’s pants while she was reading the map. She took the wallet from the woman’s pocket and dashed down the street.
Matana was dressed in long linen dress that was several sizes to big for her. She had the sleeves rolled up three times to even see her hands. This made running harder.

Shadow looked for her wallet and saw a little girl running away with her chain wallet that had a picture of Samara from the ring on it. "Hey you! Give me back my Samara wallet", she yelled as she ran to the girl and tackled her by accident since she tripped on her shoe laces. Shadow got up and then she helped the girl up. "Are you ok?", she asked politely. She was more worried about the girl than her wallet since it was only her favorite wallet and she didn't have much money in it.

“Yes, I’m fine.” Matana was staring at the woman and pondering weather she should bolt. She should give back the wallet but she needed the money it contented how ever little that was. “No, I won give it back. I have to leave my mother will worry… fair well.”
Matana took two steps back and noted that they were now in an alley safe from the public eyes of the street. She was going to make a bolt for it and loose the tourist in the maze of back streets before heading out of town for good. this was here plan any way, the women had longer legs than her own and could probably run her down if she choose.
matana had her bag with her as she was going to leave Cairo ASAP. this is why she had taken the wallet she figured she might need the money.

"I don't care about the money", Shadow said as she clipped the chain to her pants and started to walk away. Then she remembered that she had to look for some girl. "I wish John gave me a description of her at least.. Most of the kids look the almost alike", she said as she continued walking. "Maybe it was..", she said then she ran back to the little girl since it was easy to out run her. "Hey can I ask you something?", she asked curiously.

Matana turned back to the girl who ran after her to say"You may ask but can't promise i'll anwser." She was on her guard taking in the girls appearance for the first time. That ones much older than me maybe seventeen or so "what is it you want to know?"
Matana readied herself to lose the girl in the twists and turns of Cairo's streets. She shifted her bag to make it easier to move with and tucked a bit of hair be hind her right ear.

"Well.. I was wondering since your in such a big hurry. That your the girl those guys are looking for.. Am I right?", Shadow asked since the girl was really young and if those guys in the gang got to her then she would be dead. But Shadow thought she could hide the girl for abit since she thought the girl was about the same age as her.

" what guys? i don't know what your talking about, ma'm. Explain please."
Matana was hoping that the lady would believe her as she really didn't know what she was talking about.Well that wasn't turn, if she was hinting to what she thought she was hinting at; matana did know some thing bout it. Like hell she was going to tell her that though." i'm Lapis. whats your name. how old are ?"

"My name is Shadow and I'm 15, but other than that nice to meet you Lapis", Shadow said with a smile. "What I ment was some guys in Japan are looking for you. They know your in Egypt Lapis.", she said with a sigh since she didn't want them to get her really. She may be abit of a bad guy but she hates it when people are after kids like that.
((sorry it's so short.. writer's block))

"why do you think that?and how do you know?and Who are these guys your talking about... if they are after me then i have a right to know what i'm up against."
She frowned and spoked quietly "I am 6 years old why would men from japan be after me, a little girl who lives in Egypt.and how would they even set about finding me if that was true."
Matana was mentally scan all of the poeple who lived near any one of her hideouts.. would they give her up if they thought something was in it for them? If some guys came looking for a street girl would they tell about me if offered money.yes they would.
