Chapter Two: Shit Hits The Fan
Indeed, things were only just about to get weirder. The head worshiper started yelling something in Egyptian and the rock containing said high priest Imhotep began to shake violently.
"Oh this can't be good." Ardeth whispered.
"You think?" Kaylee gasped.
The rock exploded from within and a living, walking mummy burst forth from it. He looked around angerly at everyone and demanded something from the head worshiper.
"What'd he say?" Naylor whispered.
"What year is this?" Kaylee and Ardeth said at the same time. Ardeth looked at Kaylee impressively. "You speak Egyptian? Very impressive."
Kaylee blushed at his compliment, "Yes, thank-you."
"Hey guys, sit and have coffee another time, what's going on now?" Amber said frantically.
"Whoa, who's that?" Naylor gasped.
A dark hair women walked right up to Imhotep and started talking to him.
"Anuck-su-naumn? Why is she just standing there?" Kaylee asked Ardeth.
"She's been reincarnated. He's going to bring her soul back from the Underworld."
"So, she seems nice." Naylor said thoughtfully.
"Oh yes, nice as an Egyptian asp." Ardeth said with a arched brow.
"I see," Amber said. "What's an asp?" Amber whispered to Kaylee.
"A poisonous snake." Kaylee said rolling her eyes.
"Oh," Amber said to Kaylee. "I don't think I like her." Amber said to Ardeth.
"Well that's the opposite being said for our dead buddy down there. He seems quiet fond of her." Naylor said.
"So I'm going to take two wild guesses here. One, she's his sister or something sweet like that or she's his long lost girlfriend." Kaylee pointed out.
"We're going to go with the girlfriend thing." Ardeth said.
"I see, this is so weird." Amber said.
"So what's her story?" Naylor inquired.
"No time, looks like Evalyn is going to need some help. Can you fire a weapon?" Ardeth asked pulling out a couple hand guns.
"Yes...wait...who?" Amber said taking the hand gun gently.
"The lady! Of course, is she still alright?" Kaylee said slowly peeking around the corner as not to be seen.
"Who's that?" Amber said slowly. A blond haired male version of Lara Croft appeared behind some crates.
"That's my friend Rick O'Connel and that's his wife, Evalyn." Ardeth silently signaled him. He looked up and saw Ardeth, then nodded. then Amber appeared next to Ardeth and waved stupidly. Rick raised an eyebrow and mouthed the words, "Who's that?"
Ardeth rolled his eyes and made a circle in the air, Rick slowly looked around the courtyard to see two other people with weapons in hand. They smiled and nodded to show Rick they were on his side. Rick nodded and proceeded to rescue Evalyn.
"I'll send you to your grave again." Evalyn threatened.
Imhotep grinned and hooked a decaying arm around Anuck-su-naumn. Evalyn was carried over to a burning sarcophagus and Kaylee quickly understood what was going to happen if they didn't act quickly.
"Stop!" She screamed loudly in Egyption. Everything grew silent and everyone turned to face her.
"Idiot!" Naylor said smacking his head with his fist.
Imhotep released Anuck-su-naumn and took a couple steps towards her. "Who are you?" He asked in Egyptian.
"I-I. Shit." She said in English. Imhotep chuckled and this just made Kaylee mad. "I'm Khepri!" She seemed to blurt out in Egyptian. Kaylee was suprised she had remembered so much Egyptian.
"What is she doing?" Naylor whispered to Ardeth.
"I don't know, but she's distracting him." Ardeth whispered back.
" Khepri is it?" Imhotep asked taking a couple more steps towards her as if to get a better look at her. His eyes widened, "It is you."
Kaylee was speechless and that was a good enough signal for Amber to start shooting like crazy. Naylor and Ardeth joined the fight as Amber took out the guards surrounding Anuck-su-naumn. She screamed for Imhotep and this took enough of his attention for Naylor to grab her hand. "Kaylee, what did think you were doing? You could've gotten hurt."
"I know." Kaylee whispered. "But, I don't think he would."
"What are you talking about? He's a mummy! How do you know what his intentions are?"
"I don't know." Kaylee whispered.
"Let's get out of here!" Ardeth shouted. He looked at Amber and then at some large crates of liquid explosives. "Hey Amber, what big crates they have!"
Amber took aim and yelled, "All the better to blow them up with!" She rittled the crates with hot lead and the exploded into a brilliant explosion, causing everyone fall foreward alittle bit. That is except for Imhotep, who looked around for Kaylee. He spotted her running along side Naylor. He grabbed a large vase and poured out ashes of some kind.
"Hello," Rick said running up the stairs with Evalyn in hand. "That was some nice shootin'."
"No problem." Amber winked.
Just then Naylor ran up with Kaylee, "Glad to see you're safe ma'am."
Evalyn stared at Kaylee, "Thanks for distracting them."
"That's what I'm here for...grade A distraction material." Kaylee smiled weakly.
Evalyn kept staring at her and Rick didn't seem to notice, "Not these guys again!" Several scary looking guard guys materialized from the ash Imhotep had thrown into the air.
"Is it running time?" Naylor asked calmly.
"Oh yeah." Rick said dragging Evalyn off with him.
Kaylee stared at Imhotep as if there was something to say to him. "Kaylee! Didn't you hear Stud O'Pants said? It's running time!" Amber said grabbing Kaylee's hand.
"So is now the time for explaining?" Naylor inquired.
"Not yet, when we get somewhere safe." Ardeth said. "Amber what are you doing?"
"Besides, saving Kaylee from one of her brain farts..." Amber said grabbing a bench and pulling it in front of the front doors of the Museum. "I'm slowing them down."
Naylor sighed and ran up to her, "Amber, I don't think these guys use doors."
"Where's Jonathan?" Rick demanded looking around.
"Who?" Kaylee asked.
"Hello!" A voice came from a parked double-decker bus.
"Mom!" A little blond haired boy screamed from an open window.
"Alex!" Evalyn cried running inside to hug him.
"What's the matter with my car?" Rick asked the one named Johnathan.
"I was forced to find a better source of transportation."
"A DOUBLE-DECKER BUS!" Kaylee shouted
"My thoughts exactly." Rick said with a smile.
"Who are you?" Jonathan snickered.
"There's no time for that, is there? Now get us out of here!"
"Great, more bossy Americans." Jonathan whispered as he drove off.
"I heard that Jonathan!" Rick shouted.
