Hex and Espio is now facing no other than Aarib, Hex's ex-fiancé and now he wants the Ankh Emeralds.

"You won't get me and Espio this time, Aarib!" Hex threatens Aarib with her jinxes, but Aarib grabs her wrists and head-butts her.

"Ha! Did you really think you can take me down" Aarib said and held her up.

"Aarib! Get your hands off her!" Espio said with bravery, but Aarib just laughed and takes out a dagger near Hex's throat.

"Then hand over the Ankh Emeralds" Aarib snarled at him and held the dagger closer. Espio sees no other choice but to hand over them to spare his lovers life.

He sighs in defeat, "If I do, would you let her go?" Espio asked him.

"Yes, she'll live" Aarib nods with an evil grin. Espio gulps in sadness when he hands over the Ankh Emeralds to Aarib. When he did that, Aarib hands over Hex to him, Espio looked over Hex.

"Oh, thank you Espio. Now I'm going to awake the mummy of Anubis HAHAHAHAHA!" Aarib laughed evilly and rushes away in the maze-like ways.

Hex saw him run away and turned her head to Espio, she have never felt so weak before against him.

"We must stop him!" Hex said with worry and gets up.

"Then let's go!" Espio said to her and they ran after Aarib.

In a secret chamber, Aarib stands between statues of Sobek, Ra and Anubis. He was near a coffin with a mummy inside.

"Hear me my gods, I demand Anubis mummy to be revived and I shall be your servant" Aarib said and takes out all the Ankh emeralds.

The Anubis mummy awakens and opens his green glowing eyes at Aarib. He spoke to him in ancient Egyptian language.

"Master, I shall serve you forever" Aarib tries to make a deal with the mummy, but he didn't understand a word Aarib said. Instead he rises up from his sarcophagus, scaring the grey cobra. Aarib backs off nervously and heard Espio and Hex come in.

"Aarib, what have you done?!" Hex shouted at Aarib.

"THIS DAMN MUMMY IS NOT LISTENING TO ME!" Aarib screamed in panic.

He ran off like a coward, leaving Espio and Hex to deal with this situation.

"That stupid asshole" Hex growled under her breath.

"I hope he learned his lesson, but let's take care of the mummy!" Espio said as he and Hex is about to attack the mummy, but it used its magic to throw spells at the ground. The whole chamber started to rumble and shake.

"WHAT IS HAPPENING?!" Hex yelled. Suddenly a clawed hand burst from the floor and a jackal head stuck up from the ground underneath.

"RAAAAGH!" it roared and gets up holding a spear.

"I believe it's the Anubis's army of his kind" Espio said and saw many more spawn up.

"Ahhh! More like anthro jackals, man!" Hex screamed.

The Anubis statue signed for his army to attack them. They point their spears towards them and charges at them. The bad news is that Espio is out of ninja stars.


At Station Square, Silver was meditating with Blaze, giving Vector and Charmy lessons.

"I wonder how snake girl is doing along with Espio in Egypt" Silver said while keeping his eyes closed in his meditation.

"They are fine Silver darling" Blaze said calmly. Vector snaps out of his meditation and stretched himself.

"I'll give him 129 dollars if he finds something made of gold" Vector said.

All of a sudden, Silver gasped loudly when his eyes glowed cyan blue.

"Holy Chaos!" Silver screamed at what he saw in his vision and lost his focus on his floating ability and fell on his butt, "Ow!"

"Hey What's wrong bub?" Charmy asked Silver.

"Hex and Espio is in trouble!"

"In Egypt right now?" Vector asked.

"Yeah, they need back up now!" Silver said.

"Then let's go! LET'S GO!" Charmy shouted.


With Espio and Hex

Hex tries her bad luck charms on the army of Anubis but she grew exhausted and doesn't have the energy to fight back.

"Come on, Hex! Don't give up on me" Espio takes an Anubis soldier's spear and impaled several soldiers.

"If…..only…..I had…the Ankh…Emeralds…..to defeat the…..mummy" Hex pants.

"They are at his coffin, if we could get to them! We need back up too!" Espio impales some more Anubis soldiers.

More Anubis soldiers surround them, preventing these mobian reptiles from going anywhere.

"If we don't make it...I will always love you, Hex" Espio said to her.

Hex looked at him and just as they are about to be killed, a fire ball hits some of the soldiers.

"Huh?" Espio and Hex didn't see that coming.

It was Blaze along Team Chaotix and Silver.

"Need a hand here?" Silver asked Espio and his rival Hex.

"Silver?" Espio said.
"Yes, please! And Silver, I'm gonna need your help with something!" Hex said.

"With what?" Silver asked her.

"Take me to the Anubis's coffin, the Ankh emeralds are there!" Hex shouted.

Silver carries her to the tomb of the Anubis.

But the Anubis mummy saw them and slams Silver away from Hex. He crashes at the wall and saw the mighty mummy approach him.

"GET THE ANKH EMERALD!" Silver shouted.

He holds the Anubis mummy with his ESP power.

Hex quickly ran to get all 7 Ankh Emeralds, as she did they all glowed and circled around her to transform her into…Ameerati Hex.

Her form was glowing between pink and gold at the same time. Almost similar to Burning Blaze but very different.

The Anubis mummy growled in anger at this sight.

He breaks out of Silver's ESP powers and summons a spear.

"Come and get me, Anubis! Feel the power of ANKHHH!" Ameerati Hex yelled and charged at the mummy. She was able to fly and slams the mummy out of the tomb.

"ROOOAAAARRR!" the Anubis mummy roared. Ameerati Hex charged up and her jeweled forehead glows.

"I SEND YOU BACK TO WHERE YOU BELONG!" Ameerati Hex shouted and a glowing non-mobian cobra aura appears from her as the Anubis mummy is banished like how Trigon was killed. Ameerati Hex turned back to normal, but she was very exhausted for using all her powers. Espio ran to her and helped her up.

"You did well, Hex" Espio said to her.

Silver, Blaze, and the Chaotix managed to defeat the Anubis army.

From a distance, Aarib saw it all.

"I give up, I never get Hex" Aarib said both saddened and angry. He leaves with his camel.

Espio saw Aarib and is about to go after him but Hex stopped him.

"Let him go, he's already defeated" Hex said.

"But what if he tries to do something again?" Espio said.

"We'll arrest him" Vector interrupts with a grin.

"Good" Hex and Espio said unison.

"So what should we do with the Ankh Emeralds?" Espio asked.

"I'll keep them with me. Putting it in a museum could be dangerous since I learned that it has powers similar to the Chaos Emeralds" Hex said.

Espio and the gang agreed with her and they walked back to Cairo.

The next day, the gang flies back to Station Square and they celebrate Christmas weeks later at the Triple S house. Espio and Hex shared a moment together at the window. Silver came with two cups of warm chocolate for them.

"Here you go, guys. Merry Christmas" Silver said and walks back for Blaze.

Espio and Hex drank from their cups and glance at each other again, then shared a kiss under the mistletoe they were under.

The End
