Ok people you know the drill, I don’t own G.I.Joe only the characters of trinity and her family, and the school personnel. Don’t sue me I don’t own anything.



Dr Michael Jenks gently brushed the dirt away from the seal. He seemed to be holding his breath. After fifteen years of searching for this tomb, finally the fabled eye of Anubis would be found. It would be the find of the century and the accumulation of almost a lifetime of work. Ordinariarily he wouldn’t have brought his child on such an expedition but the director had insisted on a closed set. He sighed, Julia was always putting her career first it seemed.

Trinity frowned damned video screen was going dead again. Time for more batteries, again. She reached into her backpack and pulled out another package of them. Opened them and installed them in the hand held game consol. She resumed playing until she killed off the character she was playing.

She set the game down pausing in frustration, tinged with boredom. She peered out of the tent; her father had been gone for an awfully long time. Twelve-year-old trinity was getting bored and restless. For the hundredth time she wished the Egyptians had lived in the Bahamas or something.

Anything would be better than this unrelenting sand. Boredom is probably what really killed them off, trinity mused. Trinity left the tent in search of her father. The workers were gently lifting off one of the stone lids. One of a second set so far.

The stone must be inside thought the doctor, worrying that this was just another dead end. They had disarmed an impressive triple set of traps to get this far. The workers were straining at crowbars trying to lift the lid. A hissing noise started, then all hell broke loose.

The men at the crowbars started screaming. They had set off the one trap they had missed, spraying them with salt acid. Two of them died instantly, the other one was bleeding to death as the acid ate through his throat. He died ten minutes later; the other workers got spooked and started leaving. Muttering something about a curse.

Trinity saw the workers being carried out under bloody sheets and panicked. She started calling for her father, they found each other a moment later. Dr. Jenks called a halt for the day; they would resume in the morning.

Dr. Jenks was anxious so he awoke early. To find the only ones left at the camp were his original students. The hired workers had fled in the night. The students would have to do, thought the professor. They opened the other stone lids with no other incidents.

When they opened the last lid, what they found took their breath away. The Eye of Anubis was a giant deep blood red ruby. The size of his daughter trinity’s head almost. Trinity gasped, wow that looks so real. Trinity moved closer coming up between her father and his assistant.

“Is it real?” she asked breathlessly her eyes wide. “Most likely dear, but its new home is going to be in a museum” said the professor “can I touch it?” trinity asked unsure why she wanted to. Her father nodded yes, couldn’t see the harm in it. Trinity reached out and gently stroked the surface of the huge gem. Wow she noted it was warm to the touch and it felt alive.

It took several days to pack up the contents of the tomb. If you could call it that being there was no body inside. The traps had seemingly been set to keep something in, not out. After they got back to the states they were enclosed by a seemingly endless mob of reporters. Life slowly began to return to normal, somewhat. Then the members of the expedition starting having strange accidents. At first they were labeled accidents, now they were calling it the curse of Anubis.

Soon the only ones left alive were dr Jenks and Trinity. The professor started to drink, trying to forget the deaths of his friends and collegies. Two years after the first of the deaths, his wife Julia filed for divorce. After the divorce was finalized she moved to Florida taking Trinity with her. Dr jenks was killed in a freak accident just before trinity’s 16th birthday. Julia tried to put her failed marriage and the death of her ex-husband behind her, while Trinity started life anew at a new school.
