*Caesar, accompanied by a small gaurd from his legion and his most trusted slave, entered the room. Caesar sat, and waited for the Pharoh to speak.*

"You have come, I trust you're travels were pleasent."
Without waiting for a remark, he snapped his fingers and a slave knealed in front of Caesar with the head of Pompey.

*Caesar looked at the head that was presented to him. Several of his gaurds' faces turned green at the sight of the aged, blue, head. Caesar's face lite up with rage, and he stood.*
"How dare you! This man was a Consul of ROME! I shame the family of Ptolemy XIII! This man was a Consul of Rome! You killed him in such a barbarian way! I shame you and your family! I will be back in one day... One day."
*The remaining Consul walked from the throne room, his guards following, and his servant with the head.*

The boy sat there and looked to his advisor who just told him not to worry about it... and so he didn't.
"That should have showed him I'm much more than he thinks!"

*Caesar moved into the throne room, only two or three gaurds, followed by Cleopatra, then Caesar, then many many more gaurds. Caesar stepped forward with Cleopatra, as the legionaries nuetralized Ptolemy's gaurds.*
"It is time for this family dispute to end, and I will be the mediator..."

*Cleopatra walked down the the hall towards the throne, a small woman but her poise made her presence felt throughout the room...*
Did you miss me little puppet? *she hissed, approaching the throne, ignoring the stammerings of the people around her...and she leaned down slowly to lock eyes with her brother...*

*Caesar sat down, in a seat he had been in only days ago. He whatched the two siblings, already knowing the outcome.*

"I am no ones puppet! How dare you speak to me in such a manner!" He glared and looked to his adivsers for instructions, and looked to Ceasar wearily.

*smiling cruelly she stepped back to allow some room between them and gave her command* Remove yourself from father's chair whelp...or do I have to make you?
*her glare snapped onto the advisors gathered around Ptolemy* You will also remove yourselves from my sight or find yourselves without a head...
*her voice was calm but cold as mountain ice...*

He spat, "I will do no such thing! You do not have the power!"

*Cleopatra glared like viper at her brother* Insolence!...If I do not have the power then what makes you think you are Pharoh...
I am the power, and you have taken what is rightfully mine...look around you, Rome is at your doorstep and you have not a thought for Egypt's people...even now they cry for a change as you attempt again and again to have me, your own sister, killed...you can't even rule your own mind, it belongs to these worms !!
*she lashed a hand through the air in the direction of the cowering old men and sneered* Father would be ashamed of you!...if he saw you now he would not even acknowledge you his son..

*smirking softly she calmed and turned away walking further from the throne but closer to Caesar, her eyes misted, deep in thought*
Brother...once the people learn that I am alive they will follow me, even you know this...and you will have a war on your hands, a war that will rip this country to pieces...for Egypt's sake, if you have any brains left of your own, you would do well to leave Alexandria...with your life...
*she looked down with a serious expression and slowly waved her arms around at the Roman soldiers guarding every entrance to demontrate her point... then she turned and looked at her brother again darkly...*

*Caesar gave a signal, and his gaurds grabbed several of the advisors from their spots, taking out their gladius and waiting for Caesar's commands to behead them.*
"Ptolemy you are a child, not fit to rule a slave girl, yet somehow you managed to get an entire nation under your grasp... And you insulted me... You insulted ROME! You gave me the head of a consul! A Consul and my former son-in-law... So in return, I will give you a gift."
*The legionaries swiftly moved the gladii, five heads dropped to the ground.*

*Cleopatra's eyes darted to Caesar then back to her brother and she stood there like a calm snake, arms folded, smiling softly...*
