A story as old as time, Cleopatra is returned to life, after her tragic departure.

<<<<<< NEW WORLD ORDER 

THE VIGIL

Anubis, the jackal-headed god of the dead, paced the cavernous underworld. His heart, heavy with the weight of his charge, thumped against his ribcage. Cleopatra, the last Pharaoh of Egypt, lay in her sarcophagus, a silent sentinel of the past. He had watched over her for millennia, his eternal vigil a testament to her extraordinary life.

Isis, the goddess of motherhood and magic, hovered nearby, her ethereal form shimmering in the dim light. She had been drawn to Cleopatra, a woman who had defied the gods and mortals alike. "She is ready," Isis whispered, her voice as soft as the wind rustling through the reeds of the Nile.

Anubis nodded, his gaze fixed on Cleopatra's sarcophagus. "The time is near, my sister. The world above has changed beyond recognition."

Isis smiled, a gentle expression that belied her immense power. "And yet, her spirit remains unbroken. She is a force to be reckoned with, even in death."

Anubis chuckled, a rare sound from the grim god of the underworld. "Indeed. A queen who would not be denied, even by the gods."

They stood in silence for a long moment, their thoughts drifting to the future. The day would come when Cleopatra would rise again, a phoenix reborn from the ashes of the past. And when that day arrived, Anubis and Isis would be there to guide her, to ensure that her second life was as glorious as her first.

THE CODE OF LIFE

Anubis and Isis stood before Cleopatra's sarcophagus, their ancient forms shimmering in the ethereal light of the underworld. The millennia had passed like grains of sand in an hourglass, each moment a step closer to the day they had awaited.

"The time is near, my queen," Anubis announced, his voice echoing through the cavernous space. "The world above has advanced beyond your wildest dreams."

Cleopatra, her spirit restless within her mummified body, stirred. "What do you mean, Anubis? Have they found a way to bring me back?"

Isis nodded. "The mortals have developed a technology called cloning. They can now replicate the genetic material of the dead."

Cleopatra's eyes widened in disbelief. "Cloning? But that's impossible!"

"Not impossible, merely improbable," Anubis replied. "A man named John Storm has collected the DNA of countless individuals, preserving their genetic heritage for posterity."

"And they have my DNA?" Cleopatra asked, her voice trembling with excitement.

"Yes, your majesty," Isis confirmed. "Your sarcophagus was recovered from the depths of the Mediterranean, and your DNA was extracted."

Cleopatra's spirit surged with anticipation. "I must see this for myself. I must experience the world anew."

"But you must be patient," Anubis cautioned. "The process will take time. There are many challenges to overcome."

"I understand," Cleopatra replied, her voice filled with determination. "I will wait. I will wait for the day when I can walk among the living once more."

Isis smiled, a gentle expression that belied her immense power. "Your time is coming, Cleopatra. And when it does, the world will be your oyster."
