Mummy's Tomb by Nathan

On November 9, 2017, at 6:15 PM, the 6th grade mummy’s tomb began. It was really fun with the costumes and the props. But mostly the fun of performing. My part of mummy’s tomb was the Priest who would read from the Book of the Dead in the Mummification scene. I would read the first lines then my friend Ali Anwar would read a few lines then glam girls said their lines and Ali was pulling out fake body parts in the body. My favorite inside body part that he pulled was the intestines because it was really long and he would pull it out really slowly. And the crowd would usually say, “Ew.” But if they didn’t, we
would just stand there awkwardly. Then I would tell him to pull faster because it was getting awkward. This happened it Mrs. Bibayoff’s classroom. Outside of the classroom was the Nile Beast on the Nile River with a crowd lead by tour guides.

In Mrs. Leporiere’s classroom there was the weighing of the heart scene. A soul would be weighed on a scale with the feather of truth. If the soul is heavier than the feather of truth, the soul would not enter the happy afterlife. Then the Crocodile God would eat the soul. If the soul was lighter than the feather of truth, then the soul would enter the happy afterlife. When the tour crowd or tour group leaves, a sphinx would ask them an ordinary sphinx question. The “What walks on 4 legs in the morning, 2 in the afternoon, and 3 at night?” question. One of them gets it wrong and they died, then the tour guide got it right and they proceeded into Ms. Meindl’s room.

In Mrs. Meindl’s room, was the scene where a tour guide touches gold, tries to steal it, dies because of Isis and Osiris, then think how they should be punished, and finally releases the mummies on them. The mummies come out and dance Thriller By Michael Jackson. The dancers have been practicing all week for the big day and they did pretty good.
