Chapter 6: Egyptian Cinderella:

Mr. King's POV:

"Alright, the Mummy goes in the exact center of the room, you understand?"

"Yes, Sir!"

"Star measuring right away!"

"Yes, Mr. King!"

"May I have your attention, Mr. King?"

"Are the footlights ready," I asked.

"Yes, Mr. King."

"Well, then turn them on, right away," I said.

"Right away, Mr. King."

"Would somebody get me Guo O'Connell right away," I asked.

Guo's POV:

Annette, Adam, and I were looking at some of the things from the exhibit.

"These pannels from the doors to the guilded shrine depict the major happenings in the life of Rhodopis."

"Detail ahnd wahrkmahnsheep wahs superb," says Annette.

"Mr. O'Connell, Mr. King wants you!"

"I suppose he wants me right away," I said.

"Yes, Sir!"

I then walked away.

Annette's POV:

"A whole lifetime contained in a few pictures," says Ahdahm.

"Eet's prahbahbly wahrth mahre zan will be left of our lives," I said, "ziss one depeects Ahpries of hahveeng three cheeldren. Ahmahsees wahs ze crown preence. Ze three grew eento very deefferent persahns, bahth physeecahlly ahnd mentahlly. Ahmahsees wahs a sinkair. When he found a shoe, he desired to find ze wahmahn eet belahnged to so he may mahrry hair. But beshoy wahs sahmeone weeth... deefferent ideas. Ahnahnka grew up ahs a wahrrior, chahsen to be ze guardian of ze Eon Reeng."

"That is the legend," ahsks Ahdahm.

"Oui," I said, "but substahntiated een wreetings, drahweengs, ahnd tahles hahnded down through ze ahges, wheech mahke eet fahct."

"Then please go on," says Ahdahm, "I'd like to hear the rest of the facts."

"Beshoy wahs jealous of hees brahthair's pahseetion ahnd pahpulahreety," I said, "ahnd suspeecious of ze wahmahn whahm ze shoe belahnged to, our friend, Rhahdopees ahnd he cahnteenued to brahnd hair ahs a weetch. but no one sahw hair ahs one. Beshoy zen decided to poisahn rhahdopees ahs soon ahs she wahs ahble to give beerth to zeir daughtair ahnd by ze time zeir daughtair wahs three, but zen a group of nahmahdeec people cured hair of hair eellness ahnd she wahs ready to go bahck to ze pahlace to be weeth hair husbahnd ahnd daughtair.

"They missed the medalion," says Ahdahm.

"Whaht deed you say, Ahdahm," I ahsked.

"I'm sorry," says Ahdahm, "I was commenting on how the Assassins missed the medalion. What happened to it, do you think?"

"Eet wahs ahlmahst certainly burried weeth hair een ze tahmb een ze desert," I said.

"Was it found amongst the treasures of the tomb," ahsks Ahdahm.

"But..."

"Well, was it," ahsks Ahdahm, een a very hahstile way.

"No," I said, "but perhahps..."

"So your facts are no more than leged, after all," says Ahdahm.

"Adam," says Guo, "we've got the mummiform coffin in possition now. Would you care to see it?"

"Ahdahm, Guo ahsked eef you would like to see ze mummy," I said.

"Yes, I would very much," says Ahdahm.

"Let's go," says Guo.

I wahs zen sinkeeng. Ze Phahraoh wahnted to mahrry ze rightful ownair of zat shoe. Our mummy's stahry wahs like Cinderella. Who wahs hair Fairy Gahdmothair, one of Egypt's Gahds?

Guo's POV:

"There you are," says Mr. King, "come on, take a look!" We saw the coffin. "What do you think?"

"I ahm very eempressed," says Annette.

"And will you open the coffin," asks Adam.

"Sure," says Mr. King, "want to see what happens?"

They then put on this big show to open the coffin. That is when we saw her. Rhodopis.
