Rise of the pharaoh
Ch 1, Melting an icy heart
In the darkness of the night a person dressed as a blue wolf was leaping across the rooftops of Lumiose City. A male was lured by the museums pamphlets of what they were displaying he just loved going to the museum to see all the different artifacts.
The person in question was Ash Ketchum or as the public knows him by, master thief Lucario. The outfit was inspired of a god in folklore and he used the identity to trick people into thinking he's from there to punish grave robbers and judge them. If there was a theft related to something Egyptian the wolf is usually the prime suspect. Having gone all over the world stealing priceless artifacts from museums and collectors he had gathered a collection large enough to begin his own museum before he settled permanently in Lumiose City. The authorities were unable to get a sighting and even after turning the city upside down there was no trace of the one that was named Lucario and his loot.
Tonight he had set his eye on a certain prize. From sources he heard a very special coffin was placed in the museum. Unlike most findings in pyramids this wasn't booby trapped and it responded to nothing the researchers did. Ash had gone in during the day to stake out the museum and see exactly what the coffin in question was all about.
Going in as a civilian he took on his persona as visitor. Getting a tape which would function as a tour guide he pretended to be a tourist but turned off the recording because he knew it better than some voice actress reading a script. Ash was sure that with his wealth of knowledge on ancient Egypt he would unlock the secrets of the coffin and realize the true treasure that was hiding it in no time unlike the ones who supposedly studied for it as a job.
He came to the object in question and from one look he knew exactly what this type of box it is and what it was used for. A large golden sarcophagus adorned with red gemstones and at the height of a persons head was a mask with a bland expression on it. The top was alternating between blue and yellow like the headpiece of someone very important in ancient Egypt.
And as hard it was to believe, the coffin was worth more to him than a majority of the things he had in his stolen believing his luck the item would be the crown jewel of his collection. He had been searching for something like this for years. If the data he stole was right this thing would make all his desires come true if it would respond to him.
"My birthright. At last." He had no eye for every other exhibit. All that was on his mind was the sarcophagus. The gold and gems adorning it worthless compared to its true value considering he should be the only one that can use it in the way what it was meant for.
Landing on top of the museum roof he went to a glass pane. Looking down he saw the sarcophagus being hidden behind a glass pane and lasers. He smiled at the challenge. A final test from the gods themselves to see if he was worthy. Not being scared away he formed a blue staff with his special power of aura and slammed through the window sounding the alarm on purpose as he wanted certain people to take note of it.
Approaching the coffin he quickly laid a hand on it. The red jewels on the coffin lit up and the top of the coffin slid open revealing a face behind the gold with a large grin. The color in the face shifted to blue before it returned to a dark red again. Smiling under his mask the sarcophagus slid the face back into hiding again and returned to its inert state leaving no trace of that he tampered with it.
"Surrender Lucario! Even you can't get away this time!" Turning around he heard his name spoken out. A person with a white bodysuit and mask with hints of blue in her outfit her brown hair had two bangs dangling next to her eyes.
"One of the Eevee sisters. Of course they'd be here."
Consisting of 8 young woman who sworn to protect the city and blessed with unnatural gifts like himself, they were a thorn in his side for too long. The woman all worked shifts so that there was a constant surveillance over the thief's favorite place while the others patrolled other area's of Lumiose City or got their rest. The one with ice powers called Glaceon spoke to him. With the new Egyptian exhibit it was a neon sign like invitation for the thief.
"My little snow queen." Lucario talked down to her. If she was alone it was the perfect time to test his new trophy. Multiple encounters with each individual led to a loss of a valuable object and he wanted revenge on them. The girl with ice powers rushed towards him ready to strike.
Lucario rolled out of the way away from his prize. Glaceon stopped her attack in order not to damage the sarcophagus. Turning around she saw her opponent take a fighting stance.
"That is mine." Forming a blue staff in his hands he edged closer and closer. Glaceon kept her body between him and the coffin not letting his hands get on it again. She took on her own stance ready to slap the aura staff out of his hands. He stopped moving as he spiked his staff into the ground making it stand straight up.
"Perfect."
He snapped his fingers as he smiled. Glaceon confused suddenly heard something behind her as felt all her limbs being held as she got lifted into the air. Black fingers had wrapped all around her limbs as they held her up. Control over ice gave her the ability to control her body temperature. Dropping it to sub zero to freeze the hands solid and break them she realized her powers were useless.
"What is this!?" She asked again. The museum guards were on their way so the wolf couldn't enjoy the moment as much as he should but the enjoyment certainly would come later.
"I sentence you." At his words the black hands pulled her to the coffin that was open and pulled her in as the lid shut on her. Ash saw the box shake but no matter what happened from now on he had won. Hearing her scream in anger he watched it happen. The red eyes on the mask glowed and then the screaming turned into shock.
"EEP!" Suddenly the hands let her go giving her a bit of movement. Slamming her fist on the door of the coffin it did not budge. She felt her legs being pressed together by an invisible force. Her arms were forced rigid to her sides with her hands leaning on her lower back. She felt something soft being tied around her feet. Trying to move the softness extended quickly upwards as she tried to peek down but the invisible force held her back. Not even her advanced strength was enough to shake it.
Ash looked over his prize and slowly went towards it. Being near it he felt a sense of satisfaction. Letting his hands go over the coffin it's occupant would be too busy to stop him now.
"Get him!" He turned around and saw the guards of the museum armed with batons and stun guns. He grabbed his aura staff from the ground and he raced towards the regular people showing no restraint in his hits but not enough to kill them. Bodies flew all over the place as the thief took care not to make any of them land on the sarcophagus and damage it.
"This won't take long. By the time I'm done she should have come around." Peeking over his shoulder to his prisoner he continued to toy with the guards as proceeded to fight them off and knock them out while his newest item is being used.
The woman inside was shut off from the outside world. Only a pitch black emptiness was her vision as she tried to escape her prison. Her entire body felt wrapped with something as her senses were dulled by it.
"Am I tied up?" With it being a sarcophagus she though that maybe she was mummified. Trying to freeze the bandages off they did not react to her exertion.
A bright flash forced her to close her eyes. The contrast in lighting hurt her as she tried to open them again. Blinking in the darkness before she saw hints of light. Her eyes opened up revealing a strange vision.
She was in something that looked like a throne room. Gold, sapphire, every kind of rare material known to man was filled with it. On the walls were symbols she did not understand. Perhaps some form of hieroglyphs. But what stood out was the centerpiece of the room in the form of a large throne. In the throne sat a woman of her same image but with a completely different attire to her own.
Instead of a white bodysuit and mask she was scarcely dressed in comparison. Barefoot, she wore a white version of a harem girl outfit. A white face veil covered her mouth and golden armbands and necklaces adorned her being including some sort of tattoo of a wolfs head on her left arm which the original did not have.
"Hello past me." She said as she removed the veil on her face revealing a lustful smirk.
Her mirror image got up from the throne and approached the onlooker with a sway in her hips. The bells attached to her outfit ringed as she moved further and closer. The sight was not able to move away from her reflection. Still the words that she herself was a past me bothered her greatly.
"I understand your confusion. I was like you until the pharaoh showed me the error of my ways."
"Pharaoh!?"
"Yes. The pharaoh." She said dreamingly fantasizing about him disturbing the onlooker. If this image claimed to be her future self it's one she did not want.
"We fought and chased many times but he made me realize that we are destined to be together. His light has to shine over Lumiose City as its ruler. Our duty as heroines are nothing to the plight of serving our pharaoh."
"We serve no one! I promised to do the right thing!"
"Serving the pharaoh is the right thing!" Her counterpart spoke with more conviction than she ever did. The way she poured her soul into it she truly believed that the right decision is to degrade yourself as a lesser being.
"Who is this pharaoh you're talking about?" Her counterpart smiled and stepped aside.
"Behold! The vision of greatness that is the pharaoh!"
Her counterpart introduced him with all the glory he was worthy off. A raven haired boy with deep brown eyes and distinctive scars on his cheeks shone in the throne in the middle of the room. He wore a garb that exposed his well toned and formed chest and accessories she saw in her history books signaling he was quite important.
She was completely overwhelmed by the visage and his first impression dominating her entire being. From earlier mentioned history books she saw how pharaohs looked like but being in presence of one he commanded her respect immediately. He was mature, wise, kind, everything a creature that should not be, but in truth in front of her sapphire eyes.
"I...I…I…"
Her toes wiggled in her rags trying to get a hold of herself. Her lips dry, her tongue in a twist, the sparkles around the male, the beating of her heart against her ribcage, the uncontrollable desire to feel his body and for him to hold her blighted all her thoughts. He was the only thing on her mind. Any form of strategy and escape plan she made beforehand got smashed by his amazing cheekbones. She didn't even knew cheekbones can be so attractive and that's even to mention his one in fifty universes eyes which sucked out her soul.
Her counterpart went up in her sight blocking her view of the pharaoh.
"Out of the way! I must see him!" The woman begging to lay eyes on him once more her counterpart did not move.
"Don't go! Please!" She begged the young man not to leave.
"The pharaoh has left and did not fulfill your wishes because of your crimes against him."
She knew she was guilty of defying the one true ruler. One who has the right and privilege of commanding her. Her counterpart words sounded more backed up than any argument she made thus far which amounted to nothing more to "but that's bad".
"What must I do to see him again?!" The desperation was noticeable to her counterpart who gave a hint.
"You are me. You know what you must do."
"Yes…I know…"
Glaceon thought filled with shame as her life so far was filled with nothing but mistakes. It was time to repent and she shall do everything in her mortal power to beg for forgiveness and help her master claim what is rightfully his. Taking in judgement she let it wash over her no longer resisting.
Her counterpart vanished from view as she was now had a new sight. She looked at the sarcophagus Lucario imprisoned her in before. The realization of being free she looked down at her body and limbs seeing her slave garbs. Feeling the fabric on her fingertips a shock of pleasure ran through her being. Her reflection in the golden sarcophagus barely seeable she admired it anyway, already looking better than she ever did.
She turned round to the throne and saw what she wished for.
"Come here slave. Or do you want to be punished?" Hearing his voice demanding of her to come with authority she knew her place in life.
Under his heel, on her knees, looking to the ground not worthy of the sight of the reincarnation and personification of greatness that her master is she crawled to him. Her life was nothing more but a speck of dust in the existence of Lucario. She saw the value of him compared to everyone else. A treasure room to a measly penny, a lion to a mere fly, the universe to the moon and the master to her own being.
Reaching the base of the throne he spoke to her.
"You don't want this dream to end do you?" She realized he was right as he always is. This was nothing but a dream that was created by her imagination and being locked in the coffin to witness this.
"No pharaoh. I do not want this to end."
"Then surrender who you were and become who you were destined to be."
"I surrender myself to you, my pharaoh. I am yours for eternity."
And when she gave up accepting her faith, she felt herself be reborn into something more worthy than any accolade can describe. Only one thing mattered and she was going to live to it when HE would release her from the sarcophagus and this dream to make it a reality.
"That was easy."
The thief had knocked out every single guard leaving a pile of broken bodies and bones in a heap without breaking a sweat. He turned back to the sarcophagus and wondered if it was finished yet. He opened the lid of the box and peeked inside. The form of Glaceon laid with her eyes closed and her arms crossed over each other.
"How do you feel?" The thief asked the woman who got out of the box and closed the lid. Turning around seeing him she bowed before him immediately.
"My feelings do not matter. I must submit to the pharaoh."
Glaceon had called him by the title he wished to be called once he enslaved the ones he wanted and subjected the city to his rule. He smiled as she copied his face as she was happy her words pleased body and mind overwhelmed and now free from its bindings the woman now dropped to her knees and laid her arms and head on the ground showing him she thought lesser of herself compared to him.
"I must serve my pharaoh. He has been chosen by the gods to rule and I must be whatever he desires. I am yours until you release me from servitude and if not I will follow you into the afterlife. Whatever your wise choice, I will obey."
Proclaiming her undying loyalty while still facing the ground Ash was pleased with his first slave. He'd explain to her how her change of mind came to be in a more private setting wanting to gloat in her face since he know she would love it. With the ice heroine on his side he can make his escape a bit easier.
"Move the sarcophagus out through the roof I came through." He ordered her to help him to carry the coffin out.
"Yes pharaoh. As you command." Glaceon got up from her position and Lucario stood close to the coffin. The ice heroine lifted both her arms as a platform of ice emerged from the ground carrying herself, her master and his trophy upwards. The platform rose above the roof and the two had a clear view of the buildings surrounding the museum having gotten out.
The wolf lifted the sarcophagus up and on his back. Together the two jumped off the museum roof and escaped over the city's buildings. Glaceon followed him without saying a word as it was not her place to speak. Eventually the two arrived at a secret wall in a hidden alley way. The wolf placed his hand on it and it lid open. It only reacted to his aura so he was the only one able of opening it a trick he learned from his many ventures.
The two super powered beings went inside. After venturing through a long staircase down the torches in the hall lit the way. They reached a large room filled with jewels and all other sorts of treasure from his many conquests as he put the sarcophagus on a very special pedestal he had reserved just for it. He turned around to his slave who recognized the room from her dream as a happiness washed over her this being her new home.
"On your knees."
The icy heroine did. Her hands and head on the ground again she wished her master would establish rules to follow. She needed guidance in how to properly serve him and be worth of his valuable time.
"What is your normal name slave?"
"It's May, my pharaoh."
"May. The sarcophagus I put you in actually a rehabilitation device. In ancient times when the ruler of Egypt was disobeyed or challenged by a rebellion the leaders of those groups were sentenced to be brainwashed into eternal servitude to the one they went up against."
Powerful soldiers of conquering armies or beautiful woman were the prime victims. Ash was lucky enough to live in an era where they are one and the same. Even the super powered female facing down was not a mental match and so he had his sights set on the other 7 Eevee sisters that had sworn to protect the city against crimes.
"I am your master, you are my slave, my harem girl, my personal guard or any duty I push on you that I see fit. Everything I say is truth and all that defy my rule and ideal is an enemy. In time I will teach you my laws but only after you've proven yourself."
"Your will is my command. I shall lay down my life if you desire."
May was desperate. Ash had her first test ready the moment he laid eyes on the sarcophagus.
"What are your sisters right now?"
"Your enemies. They must pay for disobedience as I did." Speaking about them with a hint of rage they had to see the light. And she could not wait to start and rejoin her sisters showing the dream they never had before. Only the reality she's in currently exceeded any dream she have ever had.
"Good slave. Now tell me everything you know about your sisters and who deserves punishment first."
May began speaking over all that she knew. Every strength, weakness and personal quirk explained to her master Ash took it all in. Listening to his slave go down on her sisters they too will soon join May in eternal servitude and claim the city in the name of the new pharaoh.
Before you worry, don't dear readers. Most of the other choices for Eevee sisters are going to be a bit out there so I will mostly maintain the crack pairing aspect of this account. There's a few I can't get around but at least ¾ of them are not the usual suspects and Ash pairings.
Later.
