The Death of the Ancient Egyptian

            Once upon a time, there was a young Egyptian with black hair and dark eyes. He had a tan yellow skin with a thick necklace of diamond around his neck at all times. The Egyptian was very haughty and arrogant, but he was especially clever, too. One day, an old man who was feared and believed to practice wizardry approached him and croaked, “Kill the pharaoh by striking at his marrow with an arrow. Let his blood flow and kill the guards slow.” The Egyptian had a gleam in his eye and did all of that. However, the Egyptian killed the pharaoh with a wrong timing. Master Moses was coming to Egypt that evening. He was coming back to see his old friend, the pharaoh, after ten years. After Master Moses found out what happened, he snuck into the palace and while the Egyptian stared out to space on his balcony, Moses struck and stabbed him 37 times and threw his body over the balcony to the alligators. After a week, the Egyptian’s spirit was aroused by the Call of the Spirit. It stayed in its tomb during the daytime, staring endlessly at the coffin. When nighttime came, his spirit flew around everything, as if it had nothing to do. After 3 days, the Egyptian’s brother opened the Egyptian’s coffin and put inside the Book of the Dead. That night, the spirit left its coffin and dropped into the ground. Across the River of Nightmares, he met the three demons. The demons laughed in his face, throwing fire in his face. The spirit did not say anything and it surprised the demons and they believed that the spirit was a good one. As the spirit left the river, it chuckled to itself saying that the demons were fools that were cheated. As he came up the golden steps toward Osiris and his Council, fear crept into his spirit. Osiris frowned and stared at the spirit as if it was a boxing match. After three minutes of dead silence, Sebek, the crocodile god, threw the spirit on top of the scale next to the feather. Everyone was shocked. The entire scale had been broken because of all the evils piled on the scale. Sebek gobbled and chomped down on the spirit as it had its hand open reaching out with its eyes and mouth open toward the sky. Sebek burped and laid down to rest from his meal. Because there was so much evil in the spirit, it made Sebek full.
