The World Beyond her own.
Disclaimer: I don't own any Harry potter characters, or I don't own movie characters from the mummy. ok.
Authors Note: Be pre-warned, this is a crossover story between the mummy ( movie) and the Harry potter books. So please enjoy my crazy idea to have two different worlds collide.
Chapter 1 "An Ancient Treasure"
Eve was with Rick O Connell, at a dig site in Egypt. They were slowly uncovering the remains of a very old mummy, from what they could tell from the hyetographs.
This was an important pharaoh of the ancient Egyptian world.
Evy was using a small brush, wiping away dust from what looked to be an Egyptian coffin, soon she would be even closer to the mummy, and then would be able to investigate her find.
Rick was also, using a smaller brush, but had seemed quite frustrated about going so slow.
If Evy could guess what he was thinking, he would probably be thinking it's better to just do it the easy (quick way) rather than the slower, hard way.
If Evy knew Rick, it would be the easy way, such as blowing the whole place up.
"Cant we just?" began Rick O'Connell
"NO!" said Evy quite quickly
She continued
"you know this find is really important to me, what if we accidentally destroy something really ancient of great importance,
I don't know how I will live with myself knowing a piece of the past was destroyed because of your easy tactics at getting the job done quicker."
"Alright, alright. The long and very slow hard back breaking way it is then!" said O'Connell, in a very sad puppy dog expression on his face.
"Oh, you make me go insane sometimes" said Evy, nearly giving in.
"Well that's an condition you undertook when you married me" O'Connell replied
"Oh fine, well do it your way!" remarked Evy giving in to O'Connell's plea.
A huge Grin spread across Ricks face, he got up from where he was brushing the coffin, and headed out of the Ancient Temple ruins, that was located underneath an old allotment of houses in Cairo; this was of course a hidden tomb
It was only accidentally discovered when one of Ricks friends from the war, came to this old stone crafted house when he was hiding from some enemies, he fell through into the chamber below.
The wooden floor of the house had become rotten, and it was a mere accident that he discovered the place, then told Rick about it.
Soon after that the fellow died in the war, and Rick only just remembered about the place after returning home from Egypt when they got rid of that mummy again for the second time.
Imotep had proved to be quite an nuisance, and was glad not to run into no more mummies ever again..
Rick found what he was looking for, apiece of dynamite. He spotted his son Alex, sitting over by their tool's they used at dig sites.
He was with his little sister lily. Lily was only 2 years old and Alex was about 7 years older. Alex was looking after her while his parents were busy at the dig site, and it solely was his responsibility if something happened to her.
Rick looked over at his son and daughter, both seemed happy and content.
"Better head up son" said O'Connell "Uncle Jonathon's up there, were going to light up a piece of dynamite in a moment"
Alex looked up across at his father.
"Did you find something?" he asked
"No, not yet. Just going to blow up bit of the place. Help us get through some of that rock, that's blocking our way into the main chamber." Said Rick, gazing over at lily who was smiling brightly.
"Ok then, I will just grab lils and head up. Is mum coming up too?" he asked.
"If I know your mother, she would want to stay until she knows that my little blast hasn't destroyed any of her most precious pieces of the past" he said
Rick headed back to where Evy was busily preparing the rock, which was placed in front of the stone sarcophagus somehow over time the wall of the tomb had collapsed in and had covered up the passageway to the sarcophagus.
"Ready! "said Rick
"No "said Evy
"Thought so" said Rick, smiling "knew you wouldn't want to risk destroying something valuable"
"Ah, that's where you're wrong!" stated Evy "I am going to take that risk, but if something vitally important is destroyed..."
"Yeah I know, you will personally hold me responsible for suggesting such an easy tactic at getting an valuable item destroyed" he said
"Well, I glad you know that, but do you remember last time I went along with your advice we ended up nearly drowning in the Nile" said Evy.
Rick placed the dynamite into the pre-made hole, and lit it up.
"Time to get out here" said Rick, looking across at Evy.
"Right" said Evy, as they headed up to the surface, where Alex and little lils were waiting.
A Few Minutes later!!
Bang!
A cloud of dust filled the air, and it came right up to the service. Where everyone was nearly choking, by the sudden intake of dust.
All Evy could hear was her little lily coughing, and she could hear Alex also who had suddenly taken in a lot of dust into his lungs.
Soon the dust began to settle, and she could clearly see that she and her husband were completely covered in dust.
They looked like some unwanted people that lived on the streets.
Evy was about to step forward, to go down into the chamber below to see what damage had been done.
"Wait" said O'Connell
Evy stepped back. Then she suddenly heard a rumbling sound beneath her feet, the ground felt like it was moving.
It sounded like somewhere below one of the walls had collapsed from the blast.
"Now we can go down there" said O'Connell, looking across at how eager Evy was to get down there.
Evy and Rick climbed down below into the chamber, the dust still filled the air.
"How can you breathe in this?" said Evy who was noticing how thick the dust was.
"Don't know" came Ricks reply as he lit up an torch, it flamed to life when he put an match to it, now they could see inside, the mirror's that reflected their light had been knocked out of place when the blast went.
He and Evy moved slowly forward towards the next chamber, it was even harder to see in this chamber.
Soon the dust began to settle, and an ancient treasure was revealed to them. Something they had never seen before, not in this life anyway.
In front of Evy was an alter that was surrounded by more Egyptian paintings of the person whose tomb it was , there was an detailed account on this persons life.
Evy began to notice a few strange elements in the paintings; somehow they were different to those paintings in other Egyptian tombs they were holding long brown sticks, to what meaning she could not place what they were, but from the end of these sticks came an element of nature such as sun, water and fire.
What did that really mean? She did not know. Maybe they practiced some sort of sacrificial ritual.
She got closer and examined some of the ancient scripture, it seemed to mention the word "Muggle" and "Magic" a lot.
It seemed strange that an Egyptian tomb bore such words, an ordinary tomb referred to the Egyptian gods such as the sun god Ra and other gods, but this one was special or just out of the ordinary.
On the alter before Evy was an ancient leather bound chest, it wasn't big. But it was smaller than what it seemed, it was about half an arms length long and was about a hand or so wide.
On the outside was an inscription. Evy glanced at the words for a while, translating them into English..
"Ah hah" said Evy "this ancient chest holds within it an object of great importance, once unleashed it says that the beholder will become entwined into the world of the object".
"What's the object?" asked O'Connell
"I am guessing it's what they have painted on those walls, I think it's that brown stick thing that they seem to be holding, what is it because I seem to find that it's hard to tell, it could be a stick, or a scepter or something used for pointing" said Evy
"Call me crazy, but I seem to think that looks very similar to a wand that magicians use in their little magic shows they put on back in London" said O'Connell
"So are you trying to tell me, that the ancient Egyptians practiced magic, that they were really wizards and witches in an advanced society" said Evy, pondering what she just said.
"I don't know if it's true, but it seems to be like a wand. Don't you think so." Said Rick
"Let's open the little box to find out" said Evy, grabbing the box.
"Here we go" said Rick watching Evy lift open the lid. feeling a bit unsure what may happen next, he remembered the last time some people opened something that they shouldn't and they ended up dying from a terrible curse.
The Box creaked open, and a bright light filled the chamber.
"What is it?" asked O'Connell
"It's a wand" said Evy. Looking quite confused, it couldn't possibly really work.
"Is that all it is! Glad we haven't brought a mummy back from the dead like last time" said O'Connell, glaring over at Evy with an unjust look on his face.
"I know, I know it was my fault in the first place, it was me who read from the book of the dead. How did I know I would be bring a bag of bones back to life." said Evy
"well I am glad you admit that. So is that artifact you hold in your hand going to be worth anything!" said O'Connell.
"I don't know!" came Evy reply "I don't think no one has ever see something so different to be buried in a tomb before".
"Who's the tomb belong to anyway!" asked O'Connell
"This is the tomb of an ancient Egyptian, who I believe must have been a sorcerer or wizard in his time, his name is Tromedlov, what a long name, lets call himTromed for short I think" said Evy
Evy suddenly heard some voice say a name, the voice said Tromedlov.
"Did you say something Rick?" she asked
"No, why?" he asked
"Oh it's nothing, I thought I heard a voice, it could have been the wind" said Evy
"What wind?" asked Rick.
Rick stared into Evy's eyes, they both saw amazement and wonder. they suddenly felt strange, as if they were being watched somewhere, some place, some time.
Meanwhile in England, a lot of years later. a teenage boy sat on his bed, in his dormitory he shared with four other boys.
He was the boy who lived and he was the only one that had survived from the one they do not speak about.
He was Harry Potter and was in his 6th year at Hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry.
It was a rainy Saturday and Harry had been laying on his bed in a deep sleep, dreaming of other places he had never seen before.
The Dream he had was rather strange, he was in Egypt following some archeologists into a tomb chamber at a dig site.
He saw in front of him an ancient wand from the ancient wizards of Egypt. to his surprise he had learned that a wizard was buried their, mummified actually.
The Young Woman, Evy if he recalled, said his name was Tromedlov. Harry Dreamt on, then he woke up suddenly and said
"Tromedlov" he panted, out of breath from his dream.
He said it again, and began to think more rationally. It was just a dream, their couldn't be no chance that if the dream was true.
But what if it was he thought.
If that was real, he thought. That would mean that a wizards tomb had been found, and that wasn't the worst part.
The worst part was that the world would be in danger if any spirit was realized.
Tromedlov he thought , his head kept making the name go through his mind. Their was something striking and familiar about the name.
Think he told him self.
Then suddenly it struck him, he knew what that name meant to him, then suddenly Ron happened to walk in on him.
Ron quickly saw something was wrong by Harry's awe and horror struck face.
"What's a matter Harry? You look like your seen a ghost!" said Ron, looking quite concerned about what his friend was doing.
"Voldemort" was all Harry could say. He said it in a quivering and whispery voice, and it made Ron feel strangely alert.
"VoldeMort" he said again "Tromedlov spells Voldemort in reverse, ron I think I may have seen something vitally important. I think I have seen a ghost, almost. a ghost from the past that is."
"Who's Tromedlov?" asked ron
"An Egyptian wizard I think! I may have to ask Hermione to look him up; I think he might have been Voldemorts reincarnation.
You imagine how that would be knowing how bad he is now. What if someone discovers his tomb, imagine what sorts of trouble could come from it" said Harry
"Well. That's a lot to carry. Umm. Look Harry don't worry about it, I am sure no one will discover his tomb." said Ron
"That's the problem Ron, someone has discovered this tomb" said Harry
"So your saying there's another one out there exactly like you know who?" said Ron
"yes Ron, but I don't think they belong in the same time though, the people in my dream seemed to be more from an different era, I think they come from the time somewhere before World war 2" said Harry.
"Oh. This makes it difficult then!" said Ron
"Yes, it does" said Harry.
