Transformed
I sat at my desk in school and listened to my teacher drone on and on about something that I was very confident didn’t matter at all.
Then I suddenly saw a paper airplane land on my desk, and I saw that there were words on it.
I unfolded the paper airplane, and I saw that the words on it said, “You’re not gonna graduate if you don’t pay attention!” and I decided that maybe the paper airplane had a point and so I tried to pay attention to what the teacher was saying.
“And that’s how it was that everyone discovered the truth about what was inside of the pyramid!” the teacher said happily, and then the teacher transformed into a mummy and began began charging at the students and killing us all!
“Ahhhhhhhhh!” I screamed; but it was too late because now I was a mummy too and so were all of the other students in the class because the mummy teacher killing us had transformed us into mummies like the teacher was.
“Okay, class!” the teacher cried, “Now we kill everyone else in the school too! And then they will all turn into mummies just like we are and then we can continue killing until everyone in the world becomes mummies!”
This sounded like a good idea to me, and so I began running through the school and killing everyone I could get my mummified hands on, and they turned into mummies just like I was.
Soon the entire school was just a bunch of mummies, and the teacher addressed everyone and said, “Now we take over the whole town! It shouldn’t take long! And then once we’ve killed everyone in town just meet me at the local graveyard and we can discuss our next move!”
And so we all flooded out of the school and began killing everyone in town! It was glorious! I was having such a good time!
But then I reached a home that had an woman who was wearing a pointy hat, and she said, “Mummies!!! What happened!?!” and she quickly waved her wand around and transformed me into a wizard who was holding a wand so that I wouldn’t kill her.
“Thanks!” I said, “I can’t believe that I just killed all of those people when I was a mummy! I don’t know what I was thinking!”
“Mummies are usually pretty mind-controlled, and most of them don’t have a choice.” the witch said, “I’m Ginger, by the way; what’s your name?”
“I’m Flack,” I said, “and for some reason I don’t think that I’m gonna be graduating any time soon, since everyone in this town except for us are mummies now.”
“The whole town?!?” Ginger said worriedly, “I don’t know if we would be able to defeat a whole town of mummies! Hmmm… Here, follow me down to my underground lair so that we will be safe and can plan out our next move…” and she waved her wand at a part of her floor and a board moved to the side and revealed some steps.
We both went down the steps, and then I heard more mummies entering the house behind us and Ginger quickly did a spell that moved the floorboard back into place!
When we got down to the underground lair, Ginger got her phone out and stared in horror at what had just popped up on her screen!
I looked over her shoulder and saw that the headline said, “Mummies are attacking!! We’re all doomed!”
But then she scrolled over to some other articles, and one of them said, “It’s time for a first strike against the mummies!”
“Yikes!” I said in horror!, “I don’t think that we wanna be here when the first strike happens!”
“True…” Ginger said, and she quickly did a spell that transported us to another place.
“Also,” Ginger noted, “even nukes can’t kill mummies, and so they will continue to kill everyone until they’ve taken over the entire planet, unfortunately.”
“Is there any way to stop them?” I asked, “I mean, you transformed me from being a mummy to being a wizard! Can you do that with everyone?”
“Sadly, it’s a one-time spell,” Ginger said sadly, “though if I can train you to be a powerful enough wizard then we should be able to use a combination-spell that can turn everyone who’s been mummified back into being human!”
“How long will that take?” I asked; and Ginger said, “Well, we witches and wizards can live forever, and so time isn’t really an issue. What’s more of an issue is if you will ever be able to reach the level of power that’s necessary. I mean, some wizards have tried for millions of years to reach that level of power and still haven’t reached it!”
“But you have?” I asked dubiously; and Ginger nodded and said, “Yes, but it took me thousands of years. But this seems to be our only way out of this mess, and so we may as well begin your training now!”
“I guess we’ve gotta do what we’ve gotta do…” I said; but on the inside I was dreading the training that was about to happen more than I’d ever dreaded anything in my entire life! I mean, just one hour of learning things in school was excruciating for me! And now it sounded like I was about to have to endure thousands or maybe even millions of years of learning things?!? ‘sigh’ Why couldn’t my teacher have just been a boring old teacher instead of being a mummy in disguise? Hmph!…
