A mummy uprising at the British Museum? Who ya gonna call? Supernatural Oversight!
Detective Erick Lawrence, late of the NYPD and fledgling member of the S.O., has only been aware that the paranormal world is real for a couple of months. Imagine his surprise to be called in to help quell a mass rebellion of mummies ready to fly back to Egypt with all the museum's contents on the backs of a flock of sphinxes.
Still, with no real powers of his own, he's forced to stand by with a cheerful and annoying mummy interpreter and watch as his ultra-competent (and disturbingly hot) boss, Marilyn, handles everything. Toss in an odd spell she's cast on him, which reduces all of the various mummies' names to a Bronx cheer, and the poor man isn't having a good day.
A (very) short story prequel to the quirky paranormal mystery, Unearthly Remains, this character piece will introduce the humorous, extranormal world of Supernatural Oversight.
On a Gilbert wackiness scale of 1-to-10 sarcastic talking cats*, this one is a 7.
*Warning: Not all stories contain talking cats. Wackiness may take other forms.
