A/N: Naturally I am making some little changes towards my MC.
Disclaimer: I DON'T own Mummies Alive!
It was a bright sunny early afternoon, in the city of San Francisco, on one of the many hills, were two young preteens a boy and a girl, watched as a sports car drove away from them, and was the girl making a vow to get such a car one day. Before challenging the boy, to a race down the hill, naturally did the girl speed ahead, and the boy refused due to the hill's steepness. Soon could the girl be seen, eating an apple as she waited, until ten minutes later did the boy appear, and made a comment about the newly built sphinx. The boy's name was Walter Lu, the girl's name was Kelda, little did the latter realize that she, would be making some brand new, and quite unusual friends.
Chapter 1: Ra! Ra! Ra! Ra! Part I
*Kelda's pov*
My name is Kelda Rozalin Carnovan, I am soon to-be twelve years old, and come this autumn I will be a seventh grader. If anyone told me I was royalty... reincarnated royalty, there is little doubt that there would be scoffing, and directions for said person to the nearest mental asylum. However little did I know, that said fact was indeed true, and that I wasn't known as a royal pain... sorry but I do make the occasional bad joke. Today I was skateboarding, with my best friend/bro Walter Lu, he's the more cautious one of our duo, whereas I'm the more fearless one, and not afraid to take on challenges. Though at times I can't help but be jealous, as his loving parents are still together, I come from what's known as a 'broken-home', and that's due to my 'parents' divorcing when I was really young.
"Yeah! The tomb of the pharaoh's son, with his mummy missing... is it alive? ALIVE?" I said in a scary tone
"You know I heard that some of those nuthouses are quite nice Kelda." Walter said
"Considering your family's coat of arms ties around the back." I decreed giggling
Walter merely rolled his eyes, before giving Kelda a noogie, whom retaliated with a Gibbs-smack, and after a couple of minutes of horseplay. Did Walter headed for home, as for Kelda she headed inside the museum, to get a snack from the vending machine, and to check out the latest exhibit. Which was none other, than the one of prince Rapses, whom according to her mother Amanda, was the son of the pharaoh Amenhotep, and was dead at the age of 12. However there wasn't a body to be found, instead there were five sarcophagi, containing four of the prince's guardians, and his pet cat as well. After exchanging the bills in her mom's office, Kelda would be saying farewell, to her ordinary life, with a hello to one filled with danger, and of course mummified antics. Due to the summer heat, it was only natural for the lights, to be on in certain areas, and from there did Kelda's new life begin.
"Come back..."
"Walter? Is that you?" Kelda asked
"Come back to me... my son"
"Ha! Ha! Very funny... NOT." Kelda said "Just for that I'm not gonna share my gobstoppers" she continued
*Kelda's pov*
I've headed back into the cafeteria, to select my treat, once that 'errand' was done, did I headed down to check out the latest exhibit, and again did I hear that disembodied voice. The name Rapses could be heard, from down the hallway, far more creepier was the sounds of stone moving, as I passed the statues, on pretense of adjusting my sleeve, I made a side-long glance, and the statues were standing as they were. Little did I know, that in mere moments, was my life gonna take an unexpected turn, and the start was something out of the entertainment industry. Upon entering the exhibit, I could not help, but give a whistle of appreciation, and everything looked fantastic. If there was one thing, that my mother Amanda could do, was put on a great exhibition, and it was another matter entirely. If she could actually... but that's neither here nor there.
"Goodbye Rapses... my son"
"Fare thee well." Kelda said "Walter you have way too much time on your hands." she giggled
Kelda continued to look around the exhibit, stopping at the sarcophagi, which housed the royal guardians, before tripping on the smallest of the five, and gently placed it closer to the guardians. Not noticing that she was glowing, that very glow itself, immediately awoken the five mummified beings, and as she left the exhibit. Kelda was about to realize, they would become her bodyguards, and most importantly her new found friends. In the shadows of the exhibit, did one of the statues eyes began to glow, before leaving the room, and to follow the rest of it's orders to the hilt.
