The Pharoah Pyramids, Egypt
The busload of tourists
looked in awe at the magnificent architecture of the ancient days. The bus
carried a load of forty two passengers but the guide counted only forty of them
boarding the bus. The guide gave them twenty minutes before shooing the driver
to drive the bus. They got a dinner at in the city tonight.
Unknown to them, the two
tourists are in the pyramids. They are looking at the wordings on the walls.
The older of the two; a bespectacled older lady still clad in her jeans and
checkered shirt was holding a magnifying glass on the words.
"I think I found the
scripture. Its behind the statue in the third chamber." She spoke out to
the younger lady similarly dressed. They both convene to the chamber, and
standing there was a statue of Anubis; Anubis was associated with the
mummification and protection of the dead for their journey into the afterlife.
He was usually portrayed as a half human, half jackal, or in full jackal form
wearing a ribbon and holding a flail in the crook of its
arm. The jackal was strongly associated with cemeteries in ancient Egypt, since
it was a scavenger which threatened to uncover human bodies and eat their
flesh.
The older lady went straight for
the statue but she did not make it. The younger version had her claws into the
older lady back of the neck. Then she lowered the body gently out of respect.
The younger lady walked to the back of the statue, and looked for the sign. She
saw it and pushed at it. The flooring behind the statue opened up to reveal a
set of steps going downwards. The younger lady went back to fetch the older
lady and tossed her down the stairs. She followed on down and pull the level to
close the cover.
The place below was all dark
but the lady was not un-frazzle by the darkness. She keep on walking down until
she came to the low ceiling gallery below. She had dragged the dead lady along
with her by the hair smearing the flooring with the blood. The scavengers soon
appeared from the hidden spots and took their shares. She then slipped in at
one of the hidden spots and find herself in a long narrow corridor. She made
her way walking sideways till she saw the next gallery. The galley was a square
chamber with three statue facing it. The three statue bearing the image of
Anubis came to motion on seeing the intruder, but they stepped back when she
produced the amulet from her jeans. She walked to the statue on the left and
went behind it. There was a hidden switch which activates the doorway behind
the statue. She ended up in another descending stairs and onto another bigger
chamber.
This chamber is a large one
with rows and columns of statues standing upright there. Each of them bears a
resemblance to the the Egyptian God, Seth. The intruder produced the same
amulet and placed it over her chest. Then she chant the sacred words from the
old scrolls. The army of Seth came alive once more. They bowed to their new
mistress; Nephthys, once the wife of Seth before she betray him when he
murdered Osiris.
"My new Army, I have
works for you." Nephthys calls on her army. "Your Lord demands of
your worth to battle his enemy."
