Following these events the team decided to stay away from England for a while. While the Templars were a force to be reckoned with there they were substantially less powerful outside of the country. 

Some time later the group traveled to the city of Cairo in Egypt on another diplomatic trip where Simoni encountered a woman known as Sadeh. 

An ancient egyptian queen, the exact definition of what type of being she is could be debated. She says she's a goddess, one of the last ones to stay in the Egyptian mortal realm. However, she also shares traits with a type of undead unique to Egypt known as 'mummies'. 

Simoni was alone when she met her, tricked into following Sadeh into her pyramid alone (Sadeh believed she was 'trespassing'). At first she thought the Egyptian woman just wanted someone to talk to... until Simoni wound up bound by Sadeh's bandages and dragged off to her dungeon. 

After a few hours of torture involving a whip and a rather fiendish anal toy that Sadeh referred to as 'Bastet's Love' she was rescued by Arja and the others (though Natasha had stayed behind in India on this particular trip). Dawn distracted Sadeh using her Wonderland Eyes, making Sadeh believe that she was being confronted by Anubis, and that she had failed the test of Ma'at and was going to be fed to Ammit, the eater of souls while Nelen and Arja got Simoni away from her. 

After a brief argument between Sadeh and Nelen about whether or not Simoni was actually kidnapped or was tresspassing, Arja cut both of them off and told everyone but Simoni to clear out so she could have a discussion with Sadeh. Much to Simoni's surprise Arja actually did discuss (well, have a shouting match) with her rather than what she'd expected (i.e. fire monkey flaming fists of fury). They agreed in the end that Sadeh could play with Simoni with Arja's permission, but with some limits (no ass-destroying anal toys). 

Simoni did come back to visit a few times while the team was still in Cairo, Arja joining her at one point. She also got to experience a few more of Sadeh's abilities, including her power to manipulate water and use healing magic (which she did to help undo the damage her toy did to Simoni). 

Unlike Drusilla and Natasha, Sadeh does not wind up joining Arja's harem. She is considered royalty, and still worshipped by some of the locals, so she has no desire to leave Egypt. 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 

While preparing to leave Cairo, Arja and company were ambushed by a gang of assassins sent by Clan Fullmoon. They fought bravely, but were greatly outnumbered by almost four to one. As they closed in Dawn attempted to teleport the group to safety, not noticing that Nelen had already pulled a magical tool out of his bag (a small golden sphere) and was doing something with it. The magicks clashed with each other and caused Arja and Simoni to be teleported miles away, appearing over a small island in the Pacific ocean. 

After a few days of being trapped on the island they were discovered by Thea, a merfolk woman, who offered them a place to stay in her home. With few options (their shelter was very crude and a monsoon was coming) the two were forced to accept her offer. They allowed her to cast her magic on them, giving the girls gills, and took them down to her home in a merfolk city at the bottom of the sea. 

There the girls wound up paying for their room and board (as well as a few tuna that Simoni had 'poached' while they were trapped on the island. In her defense she had no idea that it was poaching) by basically being servants to Thea for their stay. 

At the end Thea helped the girls get found by a fishing vessel, the crew of which, unfortunately, acted as sailors are wont to do when they find two young girls alone aboard their ship. Faced with imminent buggery Simoni activated an implant that was left behind her ear by the alien, Bethandi Shuda, and the girls were beamed aboard her spaceship, trading a week of being exhibits at an alien's zoo for being rescued from, as Simoni put it 'having a bunch of crusty seamen cover us in their semen'. 

Like Sadeh, Thea doesn't join Arja's harem. She has no knowledge of the surface world (she doesn't even know what India is) and, of course, she needs to stay around saltwater to stay alive. 

The two girls spend a week aboard Bethandi's vessel, putting on shows for the aliens and finding that they were actually able to enjoy themselves there (especially after Arja took a few creative liberties with explaining ape-man and garuda culture to Bethandi while they set up her exhibit in the zoo). It was a place where Clan Fullmoon couldn't come after them after all, made awkward only by the audience (and even then, aliens. To them it was like watching a couple dogs go at it). 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 

During a trip to America the group came across a new surprise. A girl named Trixie Smith who was dating a young transvestite boy who turned out to be none other than Stephen Fullmoon, cousin to both Nelen and Simoni. 

She and Stephen stumbled upon Arja and her friends fighting off an assassination attempt from Clan Fullmoon one night and, after Nelen recognized his younger cousin (despite him being, as Nelen put it, dressed like one of the Dixie Chicks), they realized that Stephen's father, Robert Fullmoon, was one of the assassins and that he had been... well... torn limb from limb after he tried to attack Drusilla from behind. 

Trixie was worried at first, until Stephen hugged Drusilla and thanked her before doing cartwheels from joy. His father wasn't a very nice man y'see... However, after the initial 'I'm free!' dance he realized... His father was all over the park and his mother had died a few years back from pneumonia. So he had no place to live. Trixie suggested letting him move in with her, but Nelen pointed out that there'd be legal issues with that and, more to the point, that Clan Fullmoon would probably come back to find him if they found out he survived. Simoni suggested that Arja do what she did with her, i.e. 'kidnap' them. Arja shrugged, then told them that she'd go 'buy' Trixie from her mother, really just an excuse to get her out of town before the Clan came to check up on their contacts and a way to give her mother a means to get out of the area and back to Texas (Trixie wasn't living in Texas at the time). 

After spending some time on Bethandi's spaceship (in order to avoid risking them getting captured at the airport incase there were more Fullmoons in town), they settled in at Arja's house in India. 

Originally a mundane, a non-magical human, Trixie discovered a book in Nelen's room about being a 'Huckster'. A book for learning a form of card and gambling based magic disguised as a how-to guide on Casinos and gambling. Despite Stephen's worrying she took the risk and using a deck of playing cards challenged a spirit to a game and won her own powers, becoming a magician.

Finally, a return trip to Romania prompts Natasha to visit her old haunt, only to find it's been claimed by a stray werewolf. She mistakes her for a human at first, but when she pounces her the clouds above part and the full moon appears, causing her to suddenly kick Natasha off her and send the vampire flying. The 'girl' is a young lycantherope calling herself Lupe Bzou, a stray who's pack was wiped out by Clan Fullmoon shortly after Natasha had joined Arja's harem (see Part 4: The Stephen King Kids Club). 

Lupe belonged to a pack of werewolves that lived in the forests near the small village. However, after Natasha left with Arja and her group Clan Fullmoon swept the area and, having stumbled upon Lupe's pack, took them apart. A werewolf is strong in a fight, but Clan Fullmoon came prepared with swords edged in silver and their own enhanced strength. Lupe was the only survivor, fleeing into the night while the rest of her pack fought and died against the Clan's weapons. 

She wound up breaking into Natasha's old house, making it into her lair of sorts while the vampire was away... and then Arja's crew returned to Romania and Natasha discovered her, mistaking her for a human girl at first until Lupe transformed and attacked her. Natasha fought her at first, until she noticed that the werewolf was extremely skinny and found out that her pack had been killed off. Taking pity on her, she offered to show her where she kept some food stores for her mortal servants, which the werewolf quite literally tore into. 

Natasha felt bad for Lupe after the werewolf told her that the 'fire-hair warriors' had wiped out her pack, realizing that they had been looking for Arja and her friends, and offered to let Lupe come with them back to India. Lupe resisted at first, until Natasha wound up forcing Lupe to submit to her and see her as a new 'alpha' of sorts.
