Thread: The Cursed Mirror | DontxBlinkk et Kathria

Annette could see the fear etching in every line of the Pharaoh's face. She gulped, noticing that the Pharaoh barely listened to anything she really said. He had waited patiently for her to finish explaining what had happened, but seemed more intent with seeing if she was telling the truth. How could he? She had not known if she had the only mirror or if it was another mirror and now he was threatening her life if he found his property missing. She wished she was at home, watching this as a movie, not actually being a part of it. I swear I didn't steal it. Annette had insisted furrowing her brows as the guard had come back to cut off the Pharaoh informing him that the mirror was definitely missing. The Pharaoh's anger really soared high then and Annette could see it to it's full extent. The women around him stepped back along with the little boy that had accused her and Sebak just stood there demanding for the priests. Annette yelped when her back was thrown onto the ground. The guards held her in place waiting for the final decision of the Pharaoh as he spoke demanding things Annette could not tell him of. I didn't steal anything from you! I told you it was there when I woke up! If I was really a thief do you think I would just drop my prize to get away when no one will listen to me? Annette was almost screaming, she was shaking she was so scared and angry. They had just right out accused her of stealing and she had dropped the mirror hoping they would leave her alone. One of the guards chin tightened as he looked down at her. I don't have the mirror! One of your guards should have seen me leave it the first time they tried to kill me! I don't want your things! The guard slammed her head lightly against the ground trying to make Annette silent for a moment. It did cause silence from her and a ringing in her head ear as she glared at the guard who seemed displeased with Annette's words. The words Sebak spoke went into one of her ears and barely went through the other allowing her to hear what they were speaking about. The nile, a goddess and her wrath. So they thought they had upset someone and now wondered if feeding her to the Nile would upset the goddess more. The prince was still insisting she saw the priests and the Pharaoh seemed to pause at his son's prodding. Annette was at least thankful for that, but what if the priests denied her existence? Then how would she explain herself. It was then that another guard busted through the entrance doors to the throne room. Bowing his head and coming forward to the Pharaoh. It had been one of the guards the young prince had told to execute her and now he strolled forward looking down at her before going up the steps to the Pharaoh with something in his hands. He presented it to the Pharaoh. It was the mirror she had been holding before and it seemed the guard had retrieved it. Mighty Pharaoh, we found this in the sands when the woman fled. Annette wondered if that would make her look less like a thief, probably not with the way things were going. The guard presented the mirror with the backside up, showing that something had been etched into it. It was still hieroglyphs, but definitely not ones the Pharaoh might notice and it had a name in it. The name on the back wasn't an egyptian name, but Annette's name instead. At least Annette would have her answer as to what had been on the back of the mirror in the museum, but it wouldn't be the answer she would have thought. The guard looked over at Annette who was pinned down to the floor. He was silent for a moment before looking at the Pharaoh. He seemed curious as well. After all, how would Annette have enough time to put her name on a mirror she had just stolen?
