Introduction:
1230 B.C.
The sun is slowly setting, tinting the sky red as the scene slowly shifts to reveal an awe inspiring Egyptian Sphinx and the even more impressive city it lies within. Filled with countless Egyptian people and their pets and livestock.
"Thebes, City of the Living, crown jewel of Pharaoh Stark I, home of Sosuke Aizen, Pharaoh's High Priest, Keeper of the Dead. Birthplace of Tier Harrible, Pharaoh's mistress, no other man was allowed to touch her."
The scene reveals Tier walking thorough and ornate chamber, a tall woman with golden hair and a dark complexion. Her eyes are a brilliant emerald green. She wore a coat of black and gold body paint, a security measure placed by Pharaoh to make sure no other man touched her.
As walks past several gold statues, the "statues" move and reveal themselves to be gold painted priests in green robes.
As she passed a gold curtain, Sosuke Aizen is shown to be waiting for her. A tall man with brown eyes, brown hair, and a fair complexion, he walks to meet Harrible.
"But for their love… they were willing to risk life itself."
Harrible and Aizen began to kiss. So focused on each other neither noticed Aizen's hand smear the paint on Harrible's left shoulder.
As this is going on, the priests are attempting to close the doors to the room, the doors are pushed open to reveal a man taller than Aizen, with dark brown hair and piercing, wolf-like, gray-blue eyes that seemed dull at the same time, as if their own noticed everything around him but couldn't be bothered to acknowledge what he saw.
The Pharaoh Stark had entered the chamber.
His features became confused and suspicious, as he stared at the priests and in ancient Egyptian said "What are you doing here?"
As he strode towards the curtain, the priests again closed the door, and braced it with a large wooden beam.
As the Pharaoh strode past the curtain he saw Harrible standing near the statue of a cat gazing at the ground. It was then that the Pharaoh's eyes wandered to her left shoulder.
Raising his hand and pointing to the smeared paint he asked in a furious tone "Who has touched you."
Harrible's shocked gaze turned to behind the Pharaoh and he turned to find Aizen grabbing his sword from its scabbard.
"Aizen" the Pharaoh's tone was one of shock and betrayal "my priest?" His attention focused on Aizen, he did not see Harrible draw a dagger and stab him from behind.
As Pharaoh Stark screamed in agony, he turned to face Harrible, only for Aizen to stab him with his own sword. The priests watched in horror at the slaying of the pharaoh, the treacherous act appearing as a silhouette, through the curtain as Aizen and Harrible struck again and again.
The attention of the priests however was soon directed at the massive doors as they heaved as if they were hit with a great force, voices coming from the other side.
As Aizen finished with his last thrust, he stared up at the door and muttered the Tier with a hint of fear "Pharaoh's Bodyguards." As the doors heaved open revealing Pharaoh's elite guard, Tier turned to her love and said "You must go! Save yourself"
"No." Aizen declared with determination.
"But only you can resurrect me." Tier cried in desperation.
"No I won't leave you." Aizen stated again but was surrounded and being pulled away from his love by his men. He shouted at them while lashing out "Get away from me." Tier stroked the air in front of his face and as he was pulled away Aizen shouted "You will live again. I will resurrect you!"
Only moments later Pharaoh's Bodyguards ripped back the curtain and gasped in shock at the sight of the pharaoh's corpse.
Glaring at the guards Tier declared "My body is no longer his temple." And raised the dagger before stabbing herself with it and claiming her own life. In another chamber separated by a curtain, Aizen turns away in grief as the silhouette of his love stabs herself.
"In order to resurrect Tier, Aizen and his priests broke into her tomb and stole her body. They raced across the desert taking Tier's body to Hamunaptra, City of the Dead, ancient burial place for the sons of Pharaohs, and the resting place for the wealth of Egypt.
"For his love, Aizen dared the gods' anger by going deep into the City, taking the black book of the dead from its holy resting place. Tier's soul had been sent to the dark underworld, her vital organ's removed and place in five sacred Canopic jars."
As Aizen read from the book and his priests chanted, a shade like figure emerged from a nearby pool of water, the figure moved to position itself over Tier's lifeless. As it enveloped her it "melted" into her and Tier took a deep gasp.
"Harrible's soul had come back from the dead." As Aizen raised the dagger to complete the ritual, but is suddenly stopped by pharaoh's bodyguards. The figure rise from Tier corpse and with a loud shriek descends back into the pool as Aizen screams in anger and grief.
"But Pharaoh's bodyguards had followed Aizen and stopped him before the ritual could be completed. Aizen's priests were sentenced to be mummified alive." The scene shifts to reveal Aizen's priests in varying stages of mummification, and struggling and screaming as Pharaoh's bodyguards, some garbed with jackal masks in honor of Anubis, perform the rituals for mummification.
"As for Aizen himself, he was to endure the Hom Dai, the worst of all ancient curses, one so horrible it had never been performed." The scene switches to show Aizen being held down as his tongue is held by a pair of tongs, one of the bodyguards brings a knife down on the tongue and steps in front of Aizen, blocking the view as he screams in agony.
He his later shown being wrapped in linen clothes making noises of protest. As he is laid down in a wooden sarcophagus, one of the Anubis-masked bodyguards brings forth a large pot filled with a type of beetle. He then dumps the beetles onto Aizen who proceeds to make muffled screams. The top of the sarcophagus is placed on top and locked with a strange metal prism. The wooden one is then placed in a large, stone sarcophagus and locked in a similar manner.
"He was to remain sealed within his sarcophagus forever, the undead for all eternity. The Medjai would never allow him to be released… for if he should ever be resurrected he will arise a walking disease, a plague upon mankind, an unholy flesh-eater with the strength of ages, power over the sands, and the glory of invincibility."
As the Medjai bury Aizen's sarcophagus under the feet of Anubis, the scene shifts for the city at night in the past, to the present day, its ancient beauty lost to time.
Hamunaptra
1923 A.D.
"For over three thousand years men and armies have fought over this land, never knowing what horror lay beneath."
Men in the uniform of the French Foreign Legion rush to the wall of Hamunaptra, and bearing down upon them is a vast army of gun wielding nomads. The scene shifts again to reveal a group of people upon horse all clad in black onto of a mesa. In the center is a young man on a black horse. What little of his hair that can be seen due to the turban is a bright orange color, fair skin and brown eyes. To his left his a woman with dark skin and violet hair with cat like yellow eyes. To his right is a man with fair skin and scruffy blond hair with gray eyes.
"And for three thousand years we, the Medjai, the descendants of Pharaoh's sacred kept watch."
Down below in the city, as the French soldiers prepare for battle, a man on a white horse looks at the oncoming army and runs for the city. Watching him go are four men, two with black hair, one a giant with dark skin, and a red haired man covered with tattoos. Their names, Renji Abarai, Chad Sado, Shuhei Hisagi, and Luppi Antenor.
Luppi looked to Renji and said "He just got promoted."
Rolling his eyes Renji calls out "Prenez vos positions." Handsome in a rugged sort of way, Renji hair was tied back in a pineapple like ponytail with the upper part of his face and neck lined with tattoos.
Shuhei and Chad both readied their weapons their medallions glinting in the desert sun. Chad's Mexican coin and Shuhei's medallion which functioned like a photo album, able to hold several small pictures at once.
Renji turned to look at his friends as the enemy drew near "You guys are with me one this one right."
Shuhei grins and replies "You know it"
"Do you even need to ask?" Chad asks in his usual calm manner.
Renji laughs at their answers knowing he can count on them before Luppi nervously nods and says, "Oh your strength gives me strength," causing Renji to stare at the man.
As the horde charges closer upon horseback Luppi shakes his head and runs after to commander saying "Wait for me." Rolling their eyes the three others take aim
Waiting until the nomads were almost on them, Renji gave the order to fire. Scores of nomads went down with each shot, each volley of rifle fire reaping a bloody harvest. The nomads then open up with their guns. Despite lack of accuracy and the ancient city's walls, many of the French soldiers are cut down due to the sheer number of bullets raining down on them. As the nomads keep on pushing forward Renji dropped his rifle and picked up his dual pistols, Chad and Shuhei right there beside him. As the three friends run for the inner city, Luppi is ran for a set of ruins as his three friends jump over a fallen column and come running toward him.
"RUN, LUPPI, RUN. GET INSIDE."
Luppi ran for the ruin… and closed the door on his friends.
"Hey don't you close that door! Don't you close that…" the resounding thud of the stone door cut off the red haired man's tirade.
"Come on," Chad speaks in an unbelievably calm voice, "we have to get out of here."
Renji, Chad, and Shuhei found themselves running deeper into the city nomads hot on their tails. Drawing their weapons, the three friends decide to make a last stand, and six pistols go off in nearly perfect rhythm. Together they down scores of nomads but still their opponents come and still they are brought down by the three best friends.
However, during the shootout one of the nomads hits Chad in the head with his rifle, and the big man crashes to the ground, his pistols clutched in a death grip.
With a quick shoot Renji brings down Chad's killer, but before he can pick a new target, he hears and 'oomph' a turns to see that Shuhei has taken a shot to the gut. Before Renji can even move to help his friend several more shots hit Shuhei, but before he falls, he looks to Renji and with the last bit of strength he has spits out "R-Run Renji," before he to hits the sand with a thud.
Biting back a yell of sorrow, Renji turns and runs through the city, the nomads hot on his tale. However it isn't long before Renji is trapped at the statue of Anubis and turns to face the nomads as they raise their guns at him. Closing his eyes and waiting for his death Renji hears the nomads begin to panic and opens one eye cautiously to find himself alone. As he stares in disbelief, Renji hears a faint whispering and turns to face the statue as the whispering grows louder and hears a clear "Get Out." As he continues to stare at the statue, a geyser of sand shoots up towards him from the front and then the back.
As Renji retreat a glob of sand shaped like a hand seems to almost reach out for him as is falls back to the ground, and the image of a face is formed in the sand.
Before he leaves, Renji returns to the site of his fallen friends and takes their medallions, mementoes to remember the two men who were more like brothers to him than anything. Chads Mexican coin and Shuhei's album medallion, within it containing one picture, the three of them arms locked over each other's shoulders and looking at the camera, Renji and Shuhei with large smirks on their faces and Chad in his signature seemingly indifferent expression upon his face. Clenching his other hand in a fist, Renji gently places both over his head and makes to leave this damn sandbox.
As the last of the nomads flee from the city, the orange-haired Medjai speaks in Arabic "The creature remains undiscovered."
The woman notes Renji walking out into the desert and says "What of this one… should we kill him?"
"No mother," the lead Medjai says with a cryptic not "the desert will kill him."
