Book of Dead

1006 Words
Carrying the book of the dead into the underground cave, Gold stood close to the pool of blue water as she lowered the book. "Zulu, come forth!" she said. Immediately, the blue water piled up and transformed into an old man with a long golden staff. His appearance is see-through as he made a low bow to Gold, "My princess, you are welcome!" he said. "I am no longer a princess. I have lost my dignity as the daughter of Leviathan for siding with the humans," Gold replied with a sad look on her face. "You can't deny royalty because it runs in your blood. Your father Leviathan is still the king of all beasts and that makes you a princess," Zulu replied with a low tone. "Can we talk about this later, I am here for something of great importance," said Gold. "I brought the book of the dead," she added pointing at the book. Expressing shock, Zulu stepped away from the book as he sees it, "You know how many forces of darkness seek for this book?" Zulu asked staring at Gold. "That's why I came to you with it. You have been my guardian for eons of years and I don't know how to destroy this book," Gold said. "For days I have been trying to burn it but it quenches the fire each time I set it on fire," Gold narrates. "The book of the dead can't be destroyed. Even if it can be destroyed, it is unknown to anyone," Zulu replied. "What do I do now because this book can't fall into wrong hands?" Gold asked sternly. "I don't know my dear," Zulu replied. "Perhaps I should leave it in your care or even hide it here," Gold suggested. "Your father and brother still visit here and if they find out about this book, you know what your father will do with it. For long he has dared to destroy the humans and take their land. Your father's darkness is growing each day," Zulu replied putting his head down. "Hey buddy, good morning," Peter greeted as he makes his way out of the cabin. "Have you seen Gold?" Mike asked sternly going after Peter. "I have not seen her this morning, perhaps she's taking her bath," Peter said. "I have looked everywhere and I can't find her," Mike said. As they were looking around the cabin and its surrounding, they saw Gold approaching with a leather bag. Running towards her, Mike hugged and kissed her, "Where have you been, I have been looking for you?" Mike asked expressing concern. "I paid a visit to the underground cave," Gold replied. "What!" Mike exclaimed in shock. "You can't go there! Your father is still out there searching for you," Mike said. "I wouldn't have risked my life to go there if it was not important," Gold replied. "Your life is important to me and you can't just risk it," Mike said. "What's in the leather bag?" Peter cuts in. "Dude knock it off! Don't you see I am talking with my girl, huh?" Mike rashes at Peter. Bringing out the book of the dead, Gold handed it over to Peter, "How did you find this?" Peter asked as he glances at Gold with surprise. "You need to work on your hiding things. You suck at that," Gold replied. "Thanks for the memo but what are you doing with the book?" Peter asked as he flips open the pages of the book of the dead. "The book can't be destroyed and if I were you, I will protect that book with my life because if the ancient beings find it, the entire human race will be gone," Gold said as she sadly walks into the cabin. "Hey this is Mike, leave a message," said the service provider of Mike as Christie kept calling his number. "Hey Mike, it's me again, you have not been returning my calls. Please call me, I really could use your help," Christie said dropping a voice message. Before she could end the voice message Mike quickly picked up his call, "I have told you to stop calling me!" Mike yelled at Christie over the phone. "I can't sleep Mike," Christie said weeping. "Buy a sleeping pill," Mike harshly replied. "No Mike, that's not my point. I was not able to sleep last night. Something has been making a sound in my garage since midnight and I could use your help," Christie narrates. "Call the police," Mike replied. "I think whatever that is in my garage is beyond the police. It's something supernatural," Christie replied with a faded tone. "How did you know that?" Mike asked with curiosity. "Can you please come and see for yourself," said Christie with a plea. Seeing Mike rushing out from the cabin, Peter asked sternly, "Where to?" "Christie is in trouble," Mike replied rushing out. "You need help?" Peter yelled from the doorpost. "No buddy, I got this," Mike replied making his way into Peter's car. "Where is he going?" Gold asked walking towards the doorpost. "Christie is in trouble," Peter replied. "What does that have to do with him?" Gold asked as she glances at Peter with a sad look. "I have no f*****g idea," said Peter as he walks away to avoid any further questions. Slamming open the front of Christie's apartment, Mike made his way in calling her name. "You came?" Christie replied walking downstairs. "Are you alright?" Mike asked sternly. "You still care for me," Christie replied putting up a smile. "Which way leads to your garage?" Mike asked. "This way," Christie replied pointing the way. "Stay here!" Mike replied as he slowly makes his way to the garage. As he walks into the garage, he constantly looks around. "Come on motherfucker, show yourself!" Mike said as he started walking around the garage. Walking into the garage fully naked, Christie shuts the door as Mike swiftly turned it to see who it was. "What the hell!" he exclaimed looking away.
