What If Miraculous Reverse?

Chapter 12: S1 E3 Part 2

Inside the Lourve, Adrien and Alya are still at the exhibition. Adrien is rubbing his own palms in worried. What's the topic he gonna say to her? He is in real panics now, no doubt. He didn't know well about all this thing, this matter. And what the heck was that hieroglyphics. He wasn't Tikki who will be the master of explaining this.

"Come on, tell me what it is already!" Alya is rolling her eyes in mad.

He is swaying his arms still panicking, "No, no, cause... it wouldn't be a surprise then..." Under his breath, "for you or me."

Adrien and Tikki look at an ancient Egyptian papyrus as Jalil Kubdel pushes Adrien aside, "I'm telling you, father, it's right there in the hieroglyphics."

He starts to explains with his own accent, "Excuse me. There, as you know, the one with the scepter is Tutankhamun, the first. And there, opposite is Nefertiti, his princess. There are exactly one hundred mummies beside them. She died several years before him, and the sun god Ra took her as his goddess."

Mr. Kubdel come inside as joining the concersations, "Yes, I know all that. I'm the director of this exhibition, remember?"

"Then you also know that Tutankhamun wanted to bring his princess back to life, by offering the sun god a new wife. This seemed to illustrate the ritual he devised. Nobody has ever fully deciphered the hieroglyphics, but I have! It's a magic chant that needs to be recited in order to complete the ritual! I'm sure of it!" Jalil Kubdel was arguing with his father, ignoring those two visitors.

"He kinda reminds me of someone else with crazy ideas... you!" Adrien points to her intimidates.

"You might think my theories about Misterbug are crazy, but you watch, boy, I'll prove you wrong," she is smirking.

They are continuing their study tour. Mr.Kubdel kept his assumptions and faith, "Jalil, these types of frescoes are almost always the illustration for a legend. They called it a legend for a reason..."

"That's what everyone thinks. But I know it's real. I can prove it!" Jalil bursted out.

"Really? Exactly how are you going to prove it?"

"I just need to get my hands on Tutankhamun's scepter and recite the spell!" Jalil is stomping his feet against the floor and Mr.Kubdel looks angry about that.

"Are you serious? Don't even think of touching that scepter. I'd lose my job on the spot. It's a priceless historical object! Not a toy!" He screamed made they're jolted up in fear except Jalil, Alix's brother.

"Come on, dad! We have to try out the spell! What if Tutankhamun had found out how to bring people back to life?" He is in his urge to defend himself.

His eyes widened and looked at him in numb, "Listen, Jalil! That's enough! Get your head out of those papyrus scrolls and focus on the real world! This one!" He leaves. Jalil drops his research papers, looking sad.

Hawk Moth's lair, he is raising his hand to the sky. Feeling confident, "There's nothing wrong with living out a fantasy. Especially when I can make it a reality," he captured the akuma and akumatized it, "Fly away, my evil akuma, and transform that young man!"

Adrien and Alya are still at the exhibition. He tries to figure out the significance of the symbols, "Uhhh... ahhh..." His sound was desperately in the second to give up, he can't translate that.

Alya yawns and takes the history book out of her bag. Adrien jaw is dropping and pretends to try transletting those impossible thing. The moral story after this incident which should be remembered all in his entire life. He didn't have one of archeologhist skill or talent, that's it.

"Fuck it off Adrien, try it later," he slapped his mind and turns his sight towards her.

"Gah! Put that down! I'm gonna show you the secret I found out about Misterbug!" He yelled.

"..'Bout time. This better be blog-worthy," she folds her arms.

Outside the Louvre. Jalil is upset, and an akuma flies into his amulet. It lands on the pendant in the necklace around his neck, transforming him into the Pharaoh and giving him the ability to harness the powers of the Ancient Egyptian gods.

"Pharaoh, I am Hawk Moth. I have endowed you with the magical power of the ancient gods. You must do me a favor in return for this gift."

Transforming into Thoth, the Pharaoh creates bubbles and traps several museum visitors and security guards inside them, slowing down their perceptions of time, "My precious Nefertiti will come back to life!"
