Into the Past
Prologue:
I scribbled the translation for the last hieroglyphic phrase onto the paper. This document held the secret to time travel to Ancient Egypt, time of the Pharaohs and Shadow Games. All I had to do now was recite the chant that would transport me through time to that era. Birdy was sitting across from me on the floor and our yamis were in the other room, laughing at my efforts because they believed I didn't have enough power to go through with it. 'I'll show them.' I growled silently as I continued my efforts. As the last word was written, I celebrated my victory in silence, feeling pride at the time consuming project that my hard work and determination had brought to life. Now my destiny was to be fulfilled and my life changed forever. I took a deep breath and then recited the ancient incantation.
Sands of time, hear my plea
Take me to Egypt 15th dynasty B.C.
A land of tomb robbers and pharaoh's gold
Bring me to this land of old
Priestess' chants and gods all powerful
Where the rising Nile makes the land bountiful
Gods of Egypt, full of might
The land of sun and earth reign the desert night
I looked around at my surroundings and felt a surge of disappointment when I only saw my room. I kicked the bed post angrily, achieving nothing except an foot. I had spent approximately every waking hour for the last month on translating those hieroglyphics and they hadn't even worked! I spun on my good heel and limped toward the door. Before I could get there though, I blacked out.
