[POV Reo]
"Ladies, I give you the tomb of En Sabah Nur, the first ta-human" I said in a dramatic fashion and both Momo and Natasha were gaping like a fish. Momo was the first to co out of her shock, she squealed in complete joy and pulled into a tight hug. Natasha still stood at the side with wide eyes and her jaw on the floor.
Natasha finally gathered her wits back and cleared her throat to get our attention. "Ahem… not to be the one to spoil your mood but our ancient guy here seems to be covered by so kind of barrier" Natasha said pointing her flashlight towards the body covered in a translucent blue barrier.
Both and Momo separated from our hug and Momo carefully walked towards the body. I followed behind her… even though that body wasn't currently alive but I think it is under so kind of stasis, after all, it was clear in the movies that he was alive…
"That's because he is alive or under so kind of stasis… just look at his body, he looks like any other healthy man… well, except the blue skin tone" Momo said finishing her initial examination of the body.
"But is it safe? I have seen the Mummy movie, is there a chance of him waking up and calling his dead underlings?" Natasha said and her whole body shuddered. Is the big bad Black Widow afraid of mummies?
"Natasha? Are you afraid of mummies?" I asked her in a confused tone. Well, I can't imagine a scenario where Natasha would be afraid of mummies.
"Afraid? Not exactly but I don't want to deal with them if they co back… they are gross!" Natasha finished with a sour look on her face. Yeah, I kind of understand her feelings… I kind of find them gross too.
"Don't be a baby, you two. Yes, there is definitely a chance of him coming back but I don't think that it would be happening" Momo spoke while giving and Natasha a aningful look.
Momo didn't say anything after that and continued to study the Hieroglyphs etched on the platform where En Sabah Nur's body was resting. Seeing that Momo was busy reading those ancient pictures… I decided to look around the room. Natasha decided to follow Momo.
"En Sabah Nur… that was his na. Yes, now that I am reading all this I can almost confirm that he is the first ta-human, or at least he was the first ta-human who was strong enough to get noticed" Momo said while reading the Hieroglyphs.
"This here says that he was worshiped by humans, he thought himself to be a God. He has been alive for several millennia before this happened…" Momo spoke gesturing the debris around us. "Throughout his extrely long life, he has changed bodies, he had done that multiple tis and every ti he did that he gained the powers of that body… apparently he was doing the sa when this happened… whatever this is" Momo finished translating and got up from her position.
Momo walked up to another side of the wall and started to translate the Hieroglyphs once again. It was quite clear that Momo was already engrossed in all these. "Throughout the years he had a group of extrely loyal followers, they followed him wherever he went. He called them the four horsen" Momo said and pointed towards a man on the ground. From the ornants on his body, it was clear that he was one of the four horsen.
Momo continued reading and translating the Hieroglyphs, it was mostly about the deeds En Sabah Nur had done throughout the ti. All of them explained how gracious he was to his subjects. Multiple tis he had been called a God… this was another proof that the history was written by victors. Yes, I know that Subli was responsible for the betrayal which led En Sabah Nur to end up being sealed in this tomb, but I know very well that En Sabah Nur was not a nice guy.
Since ancient tis, he has been called Apocalypse, he was the ruler of the place called Akkaba, ancient Egypt. He along with his four butt-buddies would rule so kind of Civilization as a God and his four most devout worshippers. He would help them grow and when the civilizations beca too populated he would destroy the civilization and move on. It was mostly a ga for him…
"This is just bullshit about how great he was" Momo said finally giving up on translating anything more.
"But, I thought that you would be rather interested to learn the history" I said and gave her a confused look.
"Oh yes, I am interested but I don't want to read any of this crap" Momo said waving her hand towards the Hieroglyphs on the walls. "After reading all of these even a fool would understand that this was written by a biased party… after all, he is being called a God after every two lines. From what I have read, I know that this guy had a God complex and he got the hots when he was being worshipped like a God" Momo said in a condescending tone.
"I think we should kill him now, from what Momo told us about him… he is going to cause problems if he cos out of stasis" Natasha said and glared at the body of En Sabah Nur.
"No, at least not now. Momo you read about how he changed bodies while retaining his old powers… is it possible to only transfer his powers into soone like… Natasha?" I asked Momo with a thoughtful look. Honestly, I didn't have too much hope with this.
"Quite possible, but before trying anything I would need to carry out so tests" Momo spoke after contemplating for a few monts.
"Wait! Wait! Wait! I should be the main party involved here" Natasha imdiately started to protest as soon as she found that Momo was genuinely thinking about it.
"Shush, Natasha. This is the perfect opportunity to get you so powers" Momo reprimanded Natasha like a mother would reprimand her child. Natasha didn't know what to say… throughout the week she has learned a lot about Momo's personality. When Momo was like this, then there was nothing you could do to change her mind.
"But have you considered that I might have thought about not wanting any powers?" Natasha murmured, she didn't look too confident that her statent was going to work.
"So, you don't want to have powers?" Momo retorted with a smile on her face. Natasha decided to stay silent, it was quite clear that she wanted powers too.
"See, now it's decided. Don't worry I won't experint on you until I completed all the tests" Momo said in a reassuring tone but Natasha wasn't confident like Momo was. "Reo, help break this barrier, and if he wakes up knock him out" Momo said with a proud look on her face and went towards the platform where En Sabah Nur's body was laying…
Well, I guess I should help her, I went in front of the barrier and casted a shield breaker. As soon as the spell touched the barrier, it shattered like glass. As soon as the barrier shattered I felt that his heart started to pump blood throughout his body. Before Apocalypse could even open his eyes I hit him with multiple stunning charms. You see, even though ta-humans have superpowers they are useless against magic like Superman was useless against Kryptonite and magic.
"He will stay down for at least 24 hours, you might have already noticed that he is out of stasis so it would be good if you keep him stunned" I said to Momo who nodded her head with a serious look on her face. I could see that she was already in her scientist mode.
I didn't even need to say anything and Momo created an iron ball out of thin air. She handed the ball and I started to cast the necessary charms to make it a portkey. Portkeys can't be made from conjured materials but Momo didn't conjure it… she created it. For long-distance Portkeys, tal objects are much better than non-tal ones.
As soon as I was finished making the Portkey, I handed it back to Momo. Momo gave a smile and a chaste kiss. "Bye, be careful. I will et both of you back on Elysium" Momo said placed her hand on En Sabah Nur's body and with the activation word both of them were whisked away back to Elysium leaving and Natasha behind.
"Wow, she must be really interested" Natasha said with a low whistle.
"That she is. Anything new that interests her would make her forget everything else" I said looking at Natasha.
"So, are we teleporting too?" Natasha asked in a worried tone. It was clear that she didn't appreciate Apparation so there was a very little chance that she was going to appreciate long-distance portkey. Well, it's not like that I don't like her company… it is true that I didn't have much contact with her since she was brought to Elysium but I don't mind being her friend at least. After all, all of my girls are quite friendly with her. Nemuri and Momo definitely care about her…
"No… we will travel back to Madagascar and travel to Elysium from there" after thinking for a few monts I answered her. My answer made her smile happily, this was a new side of Black Widow never shown in the movies. In the movies, there was a romantic side to her but at that ti she was all serious… job first and all that…
