THE LANTERN

MERHABA MY FRIENDS

The thieves wound there way a long a dark
passage, lite only by the single lantern that
they had brought with them. The lantern light
casting eerie shadows on the walls as they eased
there way along. The air was thin and sickly, making
it difficult to breath, as they shuffled along they
pause to listen to unfamiliar sounds, sounds that
make the hair on your neck tingle with fear. The
first thief turned and looked beyond his friend.
"i hear sounds behind us". Both were having second
thoughts, but greed and the promise of wealth beyond
there wildest dreams overcame the fear.

Quickly and quietly the onlookers entered the Tomb,
stopping and listening for the shuffle of feet ahead,
there eyes adjusting to the darkness, a dim glow of
light further along the passage, showed them the way.
The smell of death hung in the air, they could taste it.
After a short time, the dim glow grew brighter.
"they have stopped, just ahead of us around the bend".
Listening hard, they heard the distant sound of merriment
and delight, they heard the two thieves dancing and singing.
`WE ARE RICH,
WE ARE RICH
NO MORE SHALL
WE HUNGER,
WE ARE `..... They stopped there merriment abruptly,
as they realized they were NOT ALONE...
