Paler Shade Of Hate

By Jeffrey Underwood and Kate Taylor

Twice a God's alchemy.
Twice the metaphysical.
Twice she'd bridged the gap between antiquity and a monstrously chaotic present time.
Twice had been broken as she'd only once been a pharaoh.
Zahra Amun had led fabled lives.
Mysterious? Impossible? Maybe but only to the limited capacities of the human mind?
Reincarnation is believed by much of the Eastern World.
Fantastical occurrences dot the living landscape often.
And so it had been and was with Zahra Amun.
She was once the Pharaoh Queen of Egypt's 18th Dynasty, Hatshepsut. But now she was the simple paramour of Solomon Mizrahi, that second term president of the United States.
That had been no accident as she'd had two goals upon her rebirth into present time.
The first had been to rectify and resolve a tragic misunderstanding between her and a king from ancient times; a king whom she'd deeply loved. Finding that same beautiful identity and spirit in a man of the present - her Solomon in full name of past and present - she sought him out and they blended perfectly after clearing up the singular tragic issue of mistrust between them in antiquity.
Her second goal had been to aid the nation and ultimately the world in recovering all that could be good by defying and defeating all that was bad. They became the iconic crusaders of light over never-ending blossoming dark.
They fought Solomon Mizrahi's campaign rival to civilly rid the nation of someone whose entire character revolved around power, money, and at the pinnacle of it all, himself.
Seth Ashton was that evil power broker and he'd been declared dead of a brain aneurysm during Solomon and Ashton's campaign against each other. Ashton's minions hadn't believed it and carried on in spite of the double loss of the campaign and Ashton's death.
Seth Ashton's minion's and their persistence became the walking shadow of the tyrant.
And then the mysterious, the metaphysics of reincarnation, reared its head as it was exposed that Ashton had actually returned and was angrier than ever, holding his followers more thoroughly in his fist.
Zahra and Solomon suddenly were swamped in a race to quell potential violence and unearth a miraculous peaceful answer, an answer for the short term, as they'd carry on with their battle against the future waves of evil.
Solomon felt like a Civil War was even possible. Zahra prayed not.
Time and the zombie apocalypse of shadows would tell.
An in-your-face read, this is a tale of the perpetual rise and fall of man; evil and good within eternally in conflict with each other.
