Fantasy The Curses of the Egyptian Gods

[AshleyBergie]

Born with a curse and a birth mark that marked your life as a living hell you had to figure out how to live with it. The curse didn't start happening until you were 15. Now it's your turn to find the others and figure out a way to get rid of the many different curses.

It was hard finding some of the members of the group. Some either didn't post much that showed the mark or some wouldn't respond back. I get that it would be a touchy subject but the best way to get rid of the curse is to be together. Luckily I found a way to contact a few of them but now it's time to find the others. I pulled out my computer and placed it down on my kitchen table sitting down and opening it up to the news along with Facebook. Looking up anything about the mark and just someone who seemed to show it off. I had found a few of them. They were easily put there. Now it was just time to contact them. I just hope they would message back. It's hard work to try and find some of these people. Even more when some just turned 15 and just now finding out about the curses.


I placed my head in one of my hands as I kept searching. Some already lived in my house so I can keep an eye on them and make it easy if we need to talk about anything. Plus it's just easier to figure stuff out. I sighed and carried on with the research. Waiting for people to respond or for people to find me.

Tate climbs out of the truck nodding at the dude that picked her up from the highway. "Thanks sir. " She says tiredly. She has not slept in 4 days. She rather not sleep right now. Nightmares right now are about things she doesn't talk about. She sees the girl house. It was Ashylnn something. She contacted her about an week ago about he curse. She convinced her to come in see her so here she was.


Tate climbs up the steps and knocks on the door . She rubs her eyes and pulls out her coffee and drinks it. After the curse started to affect her, coffee became her best friend. She wasn't like the others. She knew about the curse long before it started to affect her. Her parents or if she can even call them that told her when she was 13 when they were on an plane somewhere and then told her they weren't ever coming back. They hasn't been around her since she was 2. They left her with an nanny and then went on their forever trip. Her nanny wasn't the best nanny. Tat shakes her head shaking off her thoughts.

As I was searching through the news there wasn't much on the news about random birth marks. Facebook, Instagram and twitter were more the way to go at this point. Looking at the hashtags of weird birth marks and all this. Not much came up that I haven't already seen. My head was slowly starting to hurt so I sighed and got up and headed over to the cabinets near the fridge. I pulled out some hot chocolate mixture and placed it on the counter. I then grabbed the pot on the stove top and filled it with water putting the stove on high as I placed the pot back on the flame. Grabbing a nice forest covered mug I added a few spoon full of hot chocolate mix and waited for the water to heat up when I heard a knock on the door. I went over to the stove and turned down the temperature and headed over to the door. I was suppose to meet with one of the girls with the curse. She was young. About 15 and all so hopefully it was her or someone else who found me. As I went to open the door I was right. It was the girl I had come into contact with and convinced her to show up. "Hey. I was hoping you would show up. Come in" I say as I backed out of the doorway to allow her to come in.

Tate nods at the girl softly as she walks in the house. "So you wanted to see me about my birthmark. " Tat says yawning and drinking her coffee. Her birthday is on her right shoulder and is eight arrows. It's under her jacket. She guessed because she was the youngest of them. She looks at Ashylnn. "Oh and my name is Tate. Call me Tat for short."

I was in the garage at the crack of dawn like I had been everyday for the last week. I was working on my car that had been going through a bit of a rough patch with the motor and transmission. But since I moved into the house I have had more time to worry about other things than myself. From the garage I could hear the door open and Ashlynn talking to someone. But I didn't think of it to be a big deal, because more people have been showing up recently. As I drained the transmission fluid from my car I decided to take a break and went to the kitchen and get myself a glass of water. My shirt was dirty and little torn with some oil on my face and I wasn't very presentable so I was hoping our new guest wouldn't come to the kitchen. Ashlynn had already seen me with a dirty shirt since she's been in the kitchen or livingroom ever since Iv being here worrying about the other members. I just rolled my neck Alittle as I entered the kitchen seeing Ashlynn had the pot on the stove going and some hot chocolate mix out. I smiled Alittle as I went to the fridge and grabbed a water bottle cracking it open and taking a swing from it.

 

[AshleyBergie]

As she walked inside I smiled and closed the door and headed back to the kitchen with her. I still had something on the stove so I didn't want anything burning. "Well welcome Tat. I gave you the low down of the curse you were given because of your mark. How there's more like us and all. And well I'm the one that's bringing us all together to try and get rid of the curse." I say as I looked back at her and headed to the kitchen seeing Derrick. He was covered in oil like he normally was and I just smiled. "Hey Derrick. Getting that transmission done I see." I say with a small laugh as I get and grabbed the pot from the stove and poured the hot water into my mug with hot chocolate and looked back over at Tate. "Do you want any? I can easily make another cup if you want any." I ask her as I mixed the chocolate powder in with the water and took a sip from it. I wasn't a big fan of coffee so I was more into drinking hot chocolate. It kept me warm and what girl can truly hate chocolate.

 

[CMDR144]

As I was about to walk back to the garage I saw Ashlynn and the new girl walk in I nodded as Ashlynn made a comment on the transmission I was working on. "Ya almost done with it should have it running by lunch" I laughed as I pushed myself off the counter side and headed back out to the garage. I quick turned around and stuck my head back into the kitchen with a small smirk. "If either of you girls want to help I could sure use it" I say smiling towards Ashlynn a bit. I then turned around and headed back to the garage to let the girls talk. When a new person comes Ashlynn as to tell them the low down of everything here and all. As I got back to work on the car I realized I found I would need a new bottle of transmission fluid and some more oil. So I went too the shelf and grabed some and started to refill the engine with oil. As I stood around waiting I thought about all I had learned about my curse. It wasn't the most painful seeming one like how Ashlynn turns into a beast but it was a curse I wasn't gonna have fun with since it wouldn't let me drink any alcohol. I must have zoned out thinking of the curse because I ended up almost overfilled the oil resivoiur. 'That was close ' I say to myself as I grabbed paper towel and wiped off my hands. They smelled like oil but I was use to it. I just shrugged it off and went back to working on the car.

Tate shakes her head "No thank you. Coffee is all I need and you don't need to tell me about the curse. I know all about it. I knew since I was 13." Tat smiles softly at Ashlynn as she drinks more coffee. "I have 8 arrows so I guess I'm the youngest of the group. My curse is having Nightmares everytime I sleep and. So I don't sleep. I haven't slept for four days in an row. " She drinks more coffee "My record is an week without sleep before I faint. So we have three days before I faint again. " Tate eyes are tiredly but she hides it with her voice. She doesn't want to seem weak. Tat runs out of Coffee as she goes into her bag and gets out an another cup.

Deborah Young

​

Out of all the curses she had heard about in the current group, Deborah felt like she had the worst one, despite only having six arrows on her birth mark. Not only she was pregnant, but her pregnancy cravings included...Blood...She was human, not a vampire. But with this curse, Deborah sure felt like a Vampire. Oh well, at least she didn't have any Vampire weaknesses...Or Strengths. That would have been nice, but curses are usually supposed to have negative effects to be fair. Right now though, she was just in Ashlynn's living room, on the living room couch, resting...and drinking blood. To keep the craving at bay, she drank Animal Blood, but so the others wouldn't freak out, she kept the blood in Styrofoam Cup and non-see-through containers. She was entering her third trimester, so she was more tired then ever. She then draped a blanket over herself before falling asleep in the living room.

 

[AshleyBergie]

"Well alright then. Since you know all about your curse let me explain mine. I have the curse that has me turn into a beast every week. It normally happens every Saturday or so. Random times but comes sooner if I'm stressed. It's kinda like a period I guess if you had it for one day a week." I say with a shrug and took another sip of my hot chocolate. "Anyways it been looking for the others in the group and so far you are the youngest. For those I do find though I allow them to stay at my house. I have plenty of room. This house is big enough so we have plenty of room for over 8 members. Only rule is to not trash my house. Trash my house I trash you. But you can go up and pick a room if you like. Just pick a room with a door open. The rooms aren't the biggest but it will have what you need bathroom, bed and some closet space for some clothes." I say finishing off the hot chocolate and putting the mug in the sink. "Now your welcome to the food I have and all that just don't finish something off without telling me. Now if you excuse me I'm gonna head out to the garage to see if Derrick needs any help." I say as I smiled at her and headed out the door by the kitchen and into the garage.

 

[CMDR144]

After I had finished putting fresh oil in the car I crawled back underneath it to finish tightening the transmission bolts. As I finished tightening up the bolts I heard the side garage door open. I moved out from under the car and looked over at the door, It was Ashlynn I smiled Alittle as I crawled out from under the car and stood up wiping my hands on my pants. "Come out to help I see" I said with a smile and small laugh. I walked to the drivers door and opened it "Here hop in" I said starting the car for her. "Since your so nice to help I need you to press the gas paddle when I say" I say with a smirk as I went back down and crawled back under the car.

 

[DreamsAreForDreamers]

Tate nods softly as she goes upstairs and picks out her room. It's the room the most far away from everyone. She likes her privacy. She puts her bag on the bed and puts up her clothes which is a few but wearable clothes. She grabs her journal or what she likes to call her nightmare journal. It has all her dreams in an there but it also has the story of her life. Tate doesn't let anyone see it. She walks out of her room and closes the door. She has her journal with her. She doesn't leave without it. Tate sighs as she drinks more of her coffee. She won't go in her bedroom to sleep in 3 days. She goes downstairs and to the kitchen and thinks. "What can I do to say thanks..." She smiles and looks at the food around her. Tate runs out to the garage where Ashlynn said she would be and asks "Ummm Ashlynn is anyone here allergic to anything foodblike?"

 

[Capricornus]

Anna stood in front of the house's door. She took out a small sheet of paper where she had scribbled down the adresse. "So, this must be it?", she said to herself.


She was very nervous and afraid at the same time. She had recieved a message of a young girl named Ashlynn, telling her about something with a curse and her birthmark. Anna herself didn't really know what was going on, she just recently vaguely learned what that so called curse is about. That's why she, whenever possible, wears thick clothes and a scarf to cover up most of her skin.


She waited a few more moments before softly knocking on the door.

 

[Golden Glow]

*Ross walks up to Ashlynn's house; he saw her ad, and he wanted to remove this curse, or maybe help other people break their curses.*

 

[AshleyBergie]

As I walked into the garage I smiled as Derrick got up from under the car. "Ya I figured I take a break from the whole searching the web for the others. I sent out messages to most. Its now just up to them if they wanna message back or show up. Hopefully they do. If they want their curse gone they have to be with us when we are in Egypt and all that." I say walking over to the door of the car he opened as he wanted me to step on the gas when he said so. But right as I sat down in the car Tate peeked into the garage. I got out of the car and leaned on the door and shook my head. "I don't think anyone is allergic to anything. If anything write a note and place it next to whatever you make just to make sure. I don't wanna rush anyone to the hospital today. And make sure if you need me to get anything from the store to write it down and place it on the fridge" I say and was about to get back into the car when I heard a knock at the door.

I looked down at where Derrick went under the car and sighed alittle. "Sorry Derrick I guess some over members showed up today. Ill help you out when I get done talking to the new members though. I promise." I say as I ran a hand through my hair and headed out of the garage and to the front door. I fixed my shirt and opened it to see a new member at my door step, I smiled and knocked to her. "Hello. I'm Ashlynn. Are you one of the members iv talked to about the curses?" I asked as I leaned on the edge of the door alittle.

 

[Golden Glow]

" Hello, there," responded Ross, "My name is Ross. And yeah, I came here because of your message about the arrow thing on a birthmark. As for my 'curse,' I get burned whenever I touch jewelry, as you can see. Kind of like a fairy with iron."


*He chuckles, and then points at his forearm, showing a burn mark about one and a half inches across. He then opens his hand, revealing 3 arrows pointing to a diamond-shaped mark on my palm.*

 

[DreamsAreForDreamers]

Tate nods as she goes back to the kitchen and starts cooking. She was focusing on Spanish/Mexican dishes today. When Tat cooks, she usually gets lost in it. She loves to cook and is well skilled in it. She grabs the pans she needs and looks in the fridge an pantry as she sees that she has everything that she needed for the dishes she was gonna make. She keeps working ignoring everyone around her. She hums while says she works

 

[CMDR144]

As I crawled back out from under the car I saw Tate peek her head in and say something to Ashlynn. That's when I heard another knock on the door. Ashlynn said she would be back which was fine because I was almost done anyway. So I got back to work putting the front tires back on. And lowering it off of the jack stands. I was glad I was able to save this car it belonged to my dad. I found it in my family's barn back home. It needed some work but I got it finished. I've had it ever since. It is an original 1970 dodge challenger with a metallic purple paintjob. I've done some "extra" work to it for use in sticky situations. But other than that it is 100% pure American muscle. And I finished lowering it I closed the hood and got behind the wheel. I just sat there for what felt like an hour just thinking about how far I'd come in my own personal life. It wasn't till my watch beeped indicating 12 o'clock that I remembered my promise to have the car done by noon. So I got out of the car and left the garage and headed for my room to change. I managed to avoid the kitchen on my way to my room I didn't want to attract any attention. As I walked upstairs and into my room I took my shirt off throwing it into a pile next to my bed. As I turned around to face my mirror my birthmark was in plan sight. I just stood there thinking to myself. Eventually moving backwards to sit on the end of my bed.

 

[BloodThunder27]

After about twenty minutes, I awakened from my nap, I looked at my Styrofoam cup and decided to take another sip out of it. The blood was a little disgusting, but it was the only way to keep my baby from destroying my body. Bored, I decided to go out into the garage to see that Derrick had finished working on that Muscle Car of his. It looked rather nice. Speaking of Derrick, where did he run off to. While waiting for him to return, I continued to take sips consistently out of the Styrofoam cup while admiring the bodywork of the Car that sat in the garage. Whatever Derrick did, the car sure looked very nice. The Metallic Purple went well too. Although I preferred imports, American Muscle Cars weren't so bad either.

 

[Capricornus]

Anna noticed a young boy who just arrived at that house. Only a few moments passed before someone opened the door. A young girl, probably Ashlynn, greeted them. The boy introduced himself first. His name was Ross, apparently.


Anna, shyly started to introduce herself: "Um.. Hello... I'm Anna. So you said you could tell me more about this curse?"


Her voice was barely audible through her thick scarf, but one could still hear that she was nervous.

 

[CMDR144]

As I sat on my bed I was just thinking of something to do. It seemed like more people were gonna show up so why not get some peace and quiet for awhile. I then decided why not go shooting. It had been awhile so why not blow off some bullets. I got up off the bed and grabbed the case from under my bed and headed down the stairs. I decided to tell Ashlynn that I was going somewhere so I headed into the Livingroom and saw her at the door. "Hey. Ashlynn I'm heading out to go shoot Alittle so if you need me call me." I say with a smile and waited till she replied and headed out to the garage running to Deborah who was looking at my car. "I see your interested in my car" I say with a small laugh as I went over to the drivers side opening the door and sitting down and placing the gun case in the passengers seat. I then looked back at her and smiled. "So what's up? Just wanted to check out my car?"
