This piece was another collab between me and Mr.H. This time me and Chrissy being enslaved in a pyramid by some ancient pharaoh. Of course, with the appropiate makeover to boot :P

(Story beneath spoiler. P.S. The story might be easier to read on the original file found on my DA page; TheKiseren)
"You're sure this pyramid is safe?" Chrissy asked his boyfriend Alexander nervously. Alexander smiles and
gently pats Chrissy's head "Don't worry babe, I'm sure they made sure the pyramid is safe before
opening a museum in it" Alexander assured his boyfriend. Chrissy nods "I suppose you're right". Chrissy
and Alexander were on vacation in Egypt. They were staying in a small city close to some pyramids which
belonged to some unknown Pharaohs. They've figured that while they're in Egypt they should at least
visit one pyramid. They took a cab to the edge of the city until the road changed from asphalt to sand
after which they used a camel to get close.
After an hour-long trip in the sun, being protected from the sun with the only shade being under a rag
they finally arrived at the pyramid of the unknown Pharaoh. "Thanks for the ride" Alexander smiles as he
pays the camel driver. The camel driver simply nods.
Alexander and Chrissy turn around and look up at the golden-yellow pyramid, covered in desert sand.
"So, this is it, huh?" Chrissy says "Yup" Alexander nods as he grins over at his boyfriend "Scared?" he
teases. "Hm, no not really, I thought you were the one who was scared in the dark" Chrissy grins.
Alexander just blushes "Sh-Shut up, let’s just get in". Chrissy giggles and nods. The two walk into the
pyramid via the opening on the side. As they enter it's already quite dark and damp, the only source of
light being from the entrance. "Ah... Do you think we took the wrong entrance?" Chrissy asks nervously.
"Nah, not likely, it's the only entrance really... Should be fine, perhaps we just have to walk fur-".
Alexander was cut off by the sound of rumbling "Oh no" Chrissy says trembling. He quickly turned
around to get out as quickly as possible but to his horror the entrance was closing up! Rocks and sand
were falling down from the ceiling blocking their path. "C-Chrissy! Watch out!" Alexander says as he pulls
Chrissy back by the back of his shirt. "Umpf!" with a thud, Chrissy landed on his butt in front of Alexander
as the rumbling stopped. Torches suddenly flamed alife with fire and a voice could be heard "Welcome
to the museum, please proceed forward and enjoy your stay" it sounded quite monotone, but what was
even more scary, was that it seemed to come from everywhere.
Chrissy looked nervously at Alexander "What should we do?" he asks nervously "Well, we should push on
I suppose, nothing else we can do" Alexander shrugs. Chrissy nods and hugs Alexander's arm. The two of
them walk further in, following some wooden arrows laid out for them that seemed to lead them deeper
into the middle of the pyramid, most likely the main chamber. After about 10 minutes of walking
through the maze of arrows, covered in sand. They find a big open area, the main chamber. The two of
them look around the chamber and see all kinds of old Egyptian things, pottery, gold chairs and benches,
small idols and statues, old clothing, even a sarcophagus! But what intrigued Alexander the most was
that there was a mirror. He was quite a fan of history, mainly European medieval ages, but he knew a
thing or two about ancient Egypt as well. This mirror was made of bronze. Not uncommon in ancient
Egypt. However, what was weird about this mirror, was that it was polished while the edges which was
presumably wood, had turned green and rotten. The top of the mirror had some ancient hieroglyphs
though he couldn’t make out what it said, presumably it was meant to spell the Pharaohs name. "How’s
this mirror in such good condition after thousands of years?" Alexander said in awe as he approaches the
mirror. "Perhaps the museum employees polish it themselves?" Chrissy argues "Unlikely, assuming it is
an ancient mirror, if they tried to polish the bronze the bronze would have definitely cracked or
crumbled by now. But there’s not even a scratch on it.” Alexander says. Chrissy just shrugs "Perhaps a
replica then" he says. Alexander nods "Probably". Chrissy wanders off to look at all the other treasures in
the tomb.
As Alexander turns his attention back to the mirror, he sees his reflection though he is shocked. His
reflection looked back, but it wasn't quite his own reflection anymore. "Woah, Chrissy! Come check this
out!" he calls out to his boyfriend who was inspecting some ancient Egyptian clothing. "Huh? What's
up?" Chrissy says as he goes to Alexander. "Look in the mirror!" Alexander says. “Uh, ok?” Chrissy says
confused. He looks in the mirror a bit confused as to why Alexander tells him to do so but quickly
understands and is astonished as well. "Woah" is all he could exclaim.
They saw themselves, but not quite themselves either, they were Egyptian versions of themselves. Their
hair was straighter and blunt at the ends, as well as colored black. Their skin was that of a dark brown,
both were wearing some sort of golden headband and below their eyes, just a bit away of their eye
corners they had black paint going down slightly and then up into a curl. Chrissy had some sort of long
rectangular earrings. They were both shirtless and both wearing some sort of flat collar that covered
their collarbone and the bottom part of their neck. Some sort of arm bracelet that was worn all the way
up on their upper arm, As for their pants, they were wearing more like a cloth that was wrapped around
itself over their hips, the only difference being Chrissy had a long flap in front of his, lastly, both of them
were wearing golden ankle bands and barefoot.
"Woah, this is crazy" Chrissy says in amazement. "Think it's some sort of augmented reality?" Alexander
asks while trying to touch Egyptian Chrissy's earrings which seemingly moved even though the real
Alexander wasn't touching anything. "How should I know? Technology is your expertise" he grins.
Out of nowhere, the two start to hear music. It sounded like the stereotypical Egyptian music though it
didn't sound like it was coming from any speakers, but instead sounded like it came from deeper within
the pyramid. The two of them turn around, startled by the sudden music "That... Is rather creepy"
Chrissy says shuddering a bit. Alexander just shrugs "It's probably just to set the mood" Alexander smiles
"Don't worry too much about it" he smiles. Chrissy nods as they turn around again to look back at the
reflections of the Egyptian version of themselves. Alexander played around with his hair a bit, seeing his
reflection play with their hair too. Chrissy couldn't help but play around with his reflection’s earrings,
even gently tugging at them. He was also gently holding onto Alexander, being a bit scared thanks to all
the sudden events happening one after another so quickly. However, as scary as the sudden collapse of
the entrance was, being led in the dark with their only light being torchlight and wooden arrows for
direction, and no one else besides them being there. The music oddly seemed to calm them. It somehow
had a soothing yet also familiar tune. That and them playing around with their Egyptian reflections really
calmed them down, almost... trance-like.
"You know, it's crazy to see how one would look like in another time period and country" Alexander said
calmly as he looked at his Egyptian reflection. Chrissy couldn't help but nod "Yeah..." is all Chrissy said. "I
don't know why but seeing ourselves... As ancient Egyptians feels somehow so... familiar... and...
natural..." Alexander said, his voice slowing down a bit more, his eyes drooping a bit. "Yeah... Makes you
want to... Be it..." Chrissy says as his eyes too, were drooping down. Alexander nods "Yeah, I really wish
we were ancient Egyptians, somehow I can't help but shake the feeling it's..." he says before both in
unison say, "Our true selves...". A gust of wind seemed to blow strongly through the tomb, blasting up
some sand. Though both boys didn't seem to notice at all. As they were both entranced by their own
reflections. Their clothes waved in the wind and... came loose... Their shirt started to crumble, both
becoming beige in color before seemingly disintegrating, their clothes slowly turning into desert sand.
The ends of their sleeves turning harder and colder, turning into gold as it starts to shrink a bit to fit
tighter around their upper arm. The top of their neck hole climbing up their neck, over their head and
positioning itself just beneath the hair as that too seems to harden and tighten to fit their head shape,
turning into gold. The lower part of their neck hole seemed to remain in place, but of course, that too
hardens and turns into gold as it gets meticulous details on it, mainly grooves and a few ancient Egyptian
hieroglyphs. Two small parts of Chrissy’s shirt seemed to tear off and float towards both of his earlobes
as a golden metal hook gently pushes through it, as the rectangular pieces of fabric also hardened and
turned into gold rectangular earrings. The rest of their shirt just turns into sand and falls off. Their pants
start to unravel and turn into big piece of cloth, the threads loosening themselves as the cloth wraps
itself around their waist until it was a proper loincloth-like pants. Chrissy's pants getting a long flap on
the front. The excess cloth of their pants also disintegrates into sand. Their socks start to shrink down,
their feet ripping through it, until their socks turn into an ankle band which, of course, hardens into gold.
And finally, their shoes. Having no need for shoes, their shoes just fall off their now bare feet as their
shoes are turned into mere sand, falling onto the ground. But the biggest change yet to come, was
themselves. Their hair starts to get blunt at the tips. Their hair color changes to a darker shade. Starting
from the roots, spreading to the rest of their hair all the way to the tips in pulses, with each pulse their
hair changing into a darker tone until their hair was completely black. From the tips of their nose, their
skin also started to darken, becoming browner by the second. Spreading over their body until their entire
skin color wasn't white anymore but dark brown. And finally, below their eyes, just a centimeter away
from the outer edge of their eyes, black paint appeared going down on an angle until it curved back up in
one smooth curl. And finally, their own mind started to change. Their memories getting erased and
replaced by new memories, their previous names forgotten, their previous jobs no longer remembered.
And them starting to know the complete layout of the pyramid, and where the real Pharaoh's burial
chamber is in this pyramid. Alexander was now Al-esan-da, and Chrissy was now known as Khris-ti.
Alexander no longer a tech student and writer, and Chrissy no longer a top model. They both now were
Egyptian slaves, enslaved to the Pharaoh of this tomb, THEIR Pharaoh.
The disembodied voice appeared again, as the two slowly awaken from their trance "Wake up my new
slaves, I am the Pharaoh Neferuaten, your master. You will obey my every order and help me with my
resurrection... Tell me, what is your name and what is your purpose" the Pharaoh Neferuaten asks.
Al-esan-da and Khris-ti, awoken from their trance just look in the mirror, staring at their reflection. "Yes, I
am Al-esan-da" Al-esan-da says. "Yes, I am Khris-ti" Khris-ti says. "We are slaves to the Pharaoh, all must
serve." they both say in unison. A strong gust of wind passes along again, and a frightening laughter
could be heard, though it didn't faze either of them, as it was the laugh of their great Pharaoh. The
moving of stone could be heard behind them, the two turn around calmly as an opening appears in the
wall as a piece of the wall descends into the ground. "Come my slaves, come serve your Pharaoh"
Neferuaten commands. "Yes, oh great Pharaoh" the two of them walk into the opening into the wall,
ready to serve their Pharaoh.

An excelent improvement to anyone! I'm sure they're very happy now to serve their Pharaoh!
