There is a communication device in both his ears. The main purpose of the communication device was to make communication easy among the squad of security personnels.
Frank actually had one for himself but for some reason, he wanted Philip to communicate with the others in his stead and make his request known to the others. Or maybe because, he's the shy type.
Philip reaching out for his right ear, he touched the communication device he had in his ear. The small device in his ear made a beeping sound.
"Philip communicating to security personnels on the western side of the treasure room. Do you hear me?" Philip stated while holding the communication device in his right ear.
A voice answered him in return through the communication device.
"What is it, Philip? Have you spotted any suspicious movements?"
The voice boomed through the communication device.
"Not at all.... Actually, Frank is requesting permission to venture into the treasure room to inspect the insides and make sure everything is okay".
"If he needed permission,why didn't he request for it by himself that he had to use you to request for it?"
The voice said, once again.
"That's his own business, not mine", Philip stated.
"Okay then. He has permission to go into the treasure room but make sure you remind him not to touch anything. He has to only inspect the treasure room, nothing else".
The voice said, giving his permission.
"Thanks, for the permission", Philip said and turned off the communication device.
He turned to Frank who is a few meters away and also staring at Philip expectantly.
"What did Sergeant Buster say?" Frank asked with expecting eyes.
Philip hissed.
"You can go in but don't touch anything, just do your job by inspecting the whole room".
Frank squealed in delight, hearing Philip's words.
"That's why I admire sergeant Buster" , Frank said while grinning.
Philip could only scoff.
Actually, Sergeant Buster was their Superior. He is the leader of this supposed squad of security personnels that are in charge of guarding the treasure room for the current six hours. His main job was just to organize the other eleven security personnels.
Without wasting time, Frank hurriedly left where he stood and walked up to the treasure room door that is not far from him.
(Also, I almost forgot. The squad of security personnels are divided into four. Each group of the three security personnels guarded one side of the treasure room. That only means, three would guard the northern side of the treasure room, another three would guard the Eastern side of the treasure room, another three would guard the western side and lastly, another three would guard the southern.
Frank, Philip and another guy known as Andrew guarded the southern side of the treasure room. Nevertheless, the treasure room had an entrance at each four sides).
Frank stood in front of the door that is at the southern side of the treasure room. He confidently smiled and proceeded to open the door.
One of the wall, beside the door is a high tech keypad. Only through it could the door be opened.
Frank imputed the password on the keypad and as expected, the door automatically popped open. The door popped open, revealing an entrance way into the treasure room.
Frank freely enters the room and the door closes right after he enters.
Frank,who is in all black outfit had casually walked into the room, he didn't even know that he would meet the shock of his life.
###
A loud shriek was all that was needed to alert the whole squad of security personnels that there seemed to be trouble in the enclosed room, in the 9th floor of the museum.
About five (5) security personnels made their way into the treasure room through the southern door and the Eastern door. Definitely, these five security personnels were Philip, Andrew, slick, Derick and Victor.
Slick, Derick and Victor were the security personnels that guarded the Eastern side of the treasure room. They along with Philip and Andrew were able to get into the treasure room before the other six security personnels.
Or maybe, there was another reason why the rest of the security personnels could not make it to the treasure room.
Nevertheless, the five security personnels made their way into the treasure room, bursting the door open and ready to attack whatever had made Frank scream so loud.
The first thing their eyes came in contact with was Frank on the floor, shivering in fear and anxiety.
It didn't waste time for them to notice what had made Frank scream so loud.
The gazes of the five security personnels simultaneously landed on a golden ray of light which happened to be, the two stone tablets.
'what the hell happened here?'
That was the question that were in the minds of Philip, Victor, Andrew,slick and Derick.
Strangely, the two stone tablets were magically floating in the air. The words on the two stone tablets were also magically giving a golden glow.
But how did this happen.
-----
Earlier;
Immediately Frank had made his way into the treasure room to inspect the whole room including the artifacts and treasures in it, he had seen that everything in the room was okay and well in order.
Besides,it was his job to make sure the artifacts in the room were safe and secured,so it wouldn't be wrong for him to check out if everything in the room was okay.
Entering into the room, Frank's eyes had looked left and right, closely inspecting all the artifacts in the room. After a few moments of inspecting the artifacts in the room, he had turned to leave through the door, with which he had just came from. He was about reaching out for the door when he felt that something was wrong.
Turning his back to take a closer look at the artifacts again, he noticed something strange. He turned back fully and walked a little bit closer when a golden glow had immediately caught his attention.
In the middle of the room, was a high stand and on that high stand was a box made of transparent glass. In the box made of transparent glass were the two stone tablets.
The words on the two stone tablets were strangely giving a magical glow and this had actually caught Frank's attention.
Frank, noticing such mysterious scene was caught between confusion and surprise. Before his very own eyes, the words on an artifact were actually glowing and that for sure is shocking.
Suddenly, the glass box started to crack, slowly by slowly, the crack on the glass box covering the two stone tablets started to expand and increase even more.
And in no time spent, the glass box covering the two stone tablets shattered completely into pieces making a shattering noise. The shattered glass carelessly falls on the floor, also making a noise.
With new found magical power, the two stone tablets flew into the air. The magical golden glow increased, glowing even brighter as the two stone tablets floated in the air.
Frank couldn't hold it anymore and he let out a loud shriek, immediately alerting five of his colleagues (other security personnels). As expected, he fell to the floor, trembling in fear as the two stone tablets floated in the air before him. Somehow, he could feel strange magic all around the atmosphere.
Unknown to him, he and his colleagues were about to witness something that would change their lives forever.
