The Egypt Tour (Part 2)

After the singing performance by Tutankamen, I clapped loudly. To show his appreciation, he bowed to the left, to the right, to the front and then to the back. "Stop!" I shouted. "I'm getting dizzy with all these bowing. "What shall we do next? Shall we go see my friend Cleopatra?" Tutankamen asked.

"I'd like that, but is she buried in this pyramid as well? I asked myself. Tutankamen overheard me and replied, "She is right next door! Let me tell you a secret. When you came into my tomb, I rose from the dead. So, when you go into Cleopatra's tomb, you shall have the power to raise her from the dead. Isn't that wonderful?" "Yes it is," I agreed.

We crept slowly to the next room without making a single sound. Before we could enter the tomb, we had to get permission from the tomb-keeper who was standing infront of the door. There was a long discussion between Tutankamen and the tomb-keeper. When he finally let us in, we noticed that several scientists were already inside taking pictures. They were from Arizona. They said that they were in Egypt to study the desert. I wanted to join their mission. We looked all around the tomb, but we could not find Cleopatra anywhere.
