Papyrus Skeleton Novels & Stories

​"And now they are still here." ​Only then did the true horror of the chamber reveal itself. She swept her gaze across the vast, shadowed hall—the kneeling skeletons fused into the masonry, the heaps of rusted armaments, the petrified bodies half-swallowed by the walls, the scattered Crown fragments. They were not the aftermath of a battle. They were an ossuary. An entire civilization had been entombed beneath the earth, and whatever had survived them was currently standing ten paces away. ​The dark figure beside Cael broke the silence, his patience wearing thin. "You've wasted enough time."

So far these were the only females he’d noticed with this anomaly. As he moved farther away from the entrance, beyond the reach of the other lantern and candles, he relied solely on his torch and a lamp that barely flickered. His steps now resembled a crab-like sideways shuffle as he felt there was less danger of treading on something he’d rather not. On his next slide along the floor, his foot connected with something. Something that moved and clattered. He directed the torch’s unsteady beam downward. Dozens of skeletons, sitting or lying slouched against each other. They were all naked, refused one last dignity. Some were missing limbs, others were charred in places. Alex recoiled as a cou

"Don't worry! I'm a doctor. I'm not afraid!" With a faint smile on his face, he headed toward the bones at a quicker pace. Zachary looked utterly bewildered, not understanding Kiran's intentions. As for Frank, he had already figured out that those skeletons had deadly poison from the School of Venom, or perhaps it was the snake venom from that snake. However, he did not understand what was going on. Kiran walked up to the bones and kicked them with his foot. He even kicked over one of the freshly deceased, surprised to see the person's back already rotting while the bones remained intact.

I didn't like this, not one bit. I stepped forward, peering gingerly into the sarcophagus and let out my breath when I saw it was empty. Goddess, what the hell was I doing in here? I moved toward the skeleton, holding my lantern up to look down on the man, or what I assumed had been a man at one point. His clothes were nothing but decayed rags now, hanging off of his bones. One of his hands was clenched into a fist, and the other held what looked like a book.

Tate's private room, he didn't dare to cross any boundaries and when poking his head out, he even closed his eyes, avoiding looking inside. Ivy initially wanted to tell him it wasn't necessary, but seeing the two men playing around, she decided not to say anything. As Shawn placed the skeleton into Luke's hands, the latter let out a small gasp. "It's heavy," he exclaimed, and quickly prepared to pack the belongings. When he opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was a skeleton with all its meridians and blood vessels marked out in white with yellow lines, staring right at him as if saying "hi."

Suddenly something changed—darkness fell, and the evil spirit between heaven and earth quickly condensed! Buzz! In the blink of an eye, the evil spirits grew thicker and denser as a huge skeleton slowly took form. The skeleton was a few dozen meters high. It looked scary and eerie with its white bones. Its eyes were also glowing with menace, and its hands held two bone sabers. F*ck! Darryl's expression changed to shock as he shivered at the sight of the giant skeleton. He could feel the evil spirits in the huge skeleton; it was much stronger than the one in the King of Death's Cauldron.

"I'm a patient who requires in-patient medical treatment. Please leave me alone!" The officer nodded. He opened his laptop and played a video for Zane to watch. It was footage of Zane secretly hiding Bree in the basement! "How dare you falsely accuse me? What solid proof do you have that I was the one who hid her?" Zane's eyes bugged out of their sockets as he defended himself unrelentingly. "The garbage can in the basement contains your bodily fluids, which match the substance found on Bree Polene's body!" the officer replied.

In fact, Raider had a faint intuition that the symbols were placed here to seal or preserve this skeleton. It was strangely beautiful. Every single bone was pure white, unsullied by time. There wasn't even a speck of dust on it. What should've been an eerie sight actually gave a holy feeling, like the skeleton of a God. The light emitted by the skeleton was faint and soft but strangely hurt Raider's eyes when he looked directly at it. Even the blinding light from the magical symbols didn't have this effect. It was as if no one was qualified to look at this skeleton.

The smell was ripe, heavy with the scent of rot and wet leaves. They didn’t have to look long. Milo’s flashlight caught on a shape against the base of a twisted tree. Sophie. But barely. She was slumped there, her body warped and collapsing in on itself. One side of her scalp was bare, patches of skin missing entirely. Her left eye—gone. Just a hollow, dark socket. Two fingers missing from her left hand, the stumps black and shriveled. Her mouth hung open, a few teeth missing, gums grey.

There was fire in her eyes, and her brownish-black hair was braided, falling long over her shoulder, slightly passing her waist. "Are these the men?" Kathryn asked. Gold nodded. The flesh of one of the men fell to the ground with a splash like a piece of clothing had been removed, revealing his skeleton which remained standing, displaying yellow teeth, giving off the horrid smile his put-out flesh once concealed. The men all felt like this was a dream, some pinched themselves hoping to wake up. The skeleton stepped forward over the mass of discarded flesh and blood, paused in its footsteps, and Rose Steele stepped out of the skeleton.
