Summary: Ricks POV from when he saves Alex to when Evelyn dies

Notes: you all know I don't own any of these characters, even though I would love to own Rick ;o) This is my first finished story (and I'm just a kid), so please dont be to harsh, but I would like suggestions for better writing if any of you have any! And sorry for any mistakes with the scrip and other small things. I'm going to see TMR agian later, so I'll fix what I remember.

Ricks POV

******************************************************

I felt a surge of relief run through me as I looked down at my son. Still alive, was all I could think. I had done it. I had saved him.
"You know... this... being a dad stuff... is hard." I said, breathlessly
Alex smiled up at me,"Yeah, but your good at it."
Right then I felt my heart melt. What I had told Evelyn right before all this started to happen was true, her and Alex were the only thing that mattered to me. They were my life. Before Evelyn, I had nothing to live for, and if it wasen't for her, I woulden't be alive.
Catching the movement of Evelyn and Jonathan running up to where we were laying on the ground out of the corner of my eye, I looked up ans also noticed Anck-Su-Namun and Imhotep advancing on them. Before there was had time to react Imhotep threw Jonathan yards away, easily, like he had done so many times to me. I watched in horror as Anck-Su-Namun thrust a sword through Evelyn.
I was on my feet in a second as Evelyn looked around as if she was still trying to comprehend what just happened. As she started to fall, I made it to her side and gently lowered her to the gound.
"Take, take, take him." I told Jonathan signaling for him to keep Alex back.
Leaning over Evelyn, I moved her hands so I could see how bad it was,"Oh god." I moaned. Knowing right then that there wasen't any hope for her. Tears started running down my face as I looked into her eyes, her crying too.
"What do I do? What do I do?" I was to paniced to think straight. To paniced to do anything... even to save the person who means everything to me.
"Take care of Alex." she told me, having a hard time getting it out,"I... love you."
"No!" she coulden't die. She coulden't leave me. Without her I was nothing. How was I supposed to raise Alex on my own? He was a good kid. Probably ten times smarter than me and just as brave, if not more so. But there was no way I could do it on my own. Not without Evelyn.
She shut her eyes and I felt her body go limp in my arms, I lay there for what seemed like forever, crying over the body my my beloved. I could hear Alex and Jonathan crying behind me and they soon joined my side.
I moved over, to let them say their good-byes. As I stood behind my son, my hand resting on his shoulder reasuringly, I knew what I had to do. I had to kill Imhotep and Anck-Su-Namun. Only then could I keep going in life. For what they did to my family, they would pay.
Taking one last look at my wife,"Stay here." I told the two and walked into the pyramid. If I died doing this, then atleast I would get to be with Evelyn agian...
