“Hello, my friend!” The man said cheerfully. He stood across the display case wearing a loose white t-shirt and shorts. He was barefoot and his blonde hair was freshly wet. He smoothed his hair back to look at you better.
Your eyes grew wide and you recognized him immediately. You took your earbuds out and got off the stool. You stepped away from the man and began to hyperventilate. “I-I’m dreaming…I fell asleep at my desk again. This is another nightmare.” You said out loud.
“You’re very much awake.” He smiled.
“Y-You stay right there!” You shouted and he halted.
“My friend, it’s me, Atlas well King Atlas now.” He chuckled.
You stepped toward him now and touched his shoulder.
“See, not dreaming!” Atlas smiled. His head snapped to the right when your hand made contact with his left cheek.
“You have a LOT of fucking nerve coming here!!” You shouted.
“Ow!” Atlas stepped away and rubbed his cheek.
“You fucking bastard!! Haven’t you done enough to me?!”
“Whoa whoa, calm down!! I come at peace!!” Atlas raised his hands up.
You ran away from him and grabbed the spear from one of the knight displays. You aimed it at him and gripped it tightly. “Get. Out.” You growled.
“Put the spear down, my friend, let me explain!”
“NO! NO NO NO! First, I am NOT your friend. We are the farthest thing from friends. Second, I don’t give a fuck what you have to say, LEAVE!” You screamed.
Atlas sighed and stepped toward you and grabbed the spear. He gripped it tight and aimed it between his chest. “Then kill me.”
“Oh shut up…Why are you fucking here? After months of silence…” You hissed at him. You searched his face and rolled your eyes. “What do you need from me?”
“Can’t I come to visit my friend? Sorry…Acquaintance?” Atlas grinned.
“I will ask one more time. What. Do you want from me?” You glared.
“I…Need your help. My kingdom is in danger with another called Talokan. They are demanding I bring them the royal scepter. They claim that it belonged to them and my father stole it but I know that’s not true.” Atlas sighed.
“So just tell them that.”
“It’s not that simple, the representative said I have to either hand over the scepter to their king or prove somehow that it did belong to us. Luckily, I know a very intelligent and strong archeologist who specializes in all forms of history! If you can come with me and take a look at the scepter. I can have you explain to their king that it is ours.” Atlas approached you and gently touched your shoulders.
You laughed in his face and stepped back from him. “Don’t fucking touch me. It’s your problem, also how the fuck do you not know your own people’s history? Isn’t that a requirement for merman royals along with being a manipulative prick?” You walked back over to the knight display and returned the spear.
“Look some parts of my family’s history have been…Omitted. I’m not good at understanding Mayan and Greek writing. You are! Please! What can I do to convince you?” Atlas approached and went on his knees.
“Ha! Do you want to know what you can do for me? Get out of my fucking life, forever! Do you know how many sleepless nights I’ve had since then? Too. Fucking. Many. You ruined my life!” You said angrily.
“I-I know…And not a day goes by where I don’t regret it.”
“Don’t care! Not helping you. Get out of my museum and don’t come again or next time I’ll kill you.” You growled.
Atlas stood up and nodded, he began to walk toward the large window. “I…I really am sorry.” He said softly.
“Goodbye!” You waved your hand dismissively. You looked away when he left like a dog with its’ tail between its’ legs. You finally looked back over and he was gone. You walked back over to the display case and picked up the coin. “Asshole.” You scoffed and set everything back the way it should. You closed it up and went back to your office.
Morning came and you woke up from your desk. You looked at the time.
Your eyes grew wide and you rushed out of the museum and into your car. You drove down the street and got onto the bridge that would take you toward the city where your therapy appointment was. You pulled out your phone when traffic was at a standstill and dialed the therapy office. You heard it ring and looked ahead of you. You heard people honking and screaming, what was going on? You noticed that there was shallow water pouring onto the bridge. You looked up ahead and your eyes grew wide.
There were four blue-skinned people in Aztec armor and spears. They were looking into the driver-side window of every car.
“Hello, Madison Healing Health, this is Jen speaking, how can I help you?” The receptionist answered.
“Hi, Jen…It’s me, Harper Quinn’s 9 am…I know this is last minute but I’m not gonna make it in…I’m not feeling well.” You lied and your eyes were trained on the people heading toward your car.
“Oh I’m so sorry, I’ll let them know, feel better!” Jen said.
“Yeah, you too.” You weren’t paying attention to your words and hung up the phone. The four people stopped in front of your car and you got out of it. Atlas’ words rang in your head about an enemy kingdom. You sure hoped this wasn’t it and somehow he didn’t pin the blame on you.
The woman with orange feathers on the back of her head approached you and pulled out a photo. “Teeche’ teech? (Is this you?)” She said and you looked at the photo. It was of you and Atlas standing in the cove with the gold Mayan coins you collected after deep diving. You nodded to the woman and picked up on the Yucatec Mayan language she spoke. “Yaan a taal yéetel to'on! (You will come with us!)” She aimed the spear at you.
“Ba'ax tu'ux? Tu'ux ka bisiken? (To where? Where are you taking me?)” You asked and the woman looked at you stunned.
“A t'aan k t'aano’… (You speak our language…)” She looked at the others and they stared at you curiously. “Teech k bisiko'onech tak Ku'ku'lkán. (We are taking you to Ku'ku'lkán)” The woman then walked over to the edge of the bridge. She and two others jumped off the bridge and dived into the ocean.
Now it was you and a man with a muscular form. He approached you and pressed a blue mask that resembled an oxygen mask to your mouth. “Bey u páajtal a respirar yáanal le ja'o’. (So you can breathe underwater.)” He said and you nodded, adjusting the straps of the mask more comfortably. He gestured for you to follow him and he grabbed your arm. You both jumped off the bridge and straight into the water.
You were sure this was going to make the news…
