Note: Okay, people! I didn't get ten reviews, but I'm bored and I need to

be no more chapters until I get my ten reviews!! Anyway, thanks to all
those who did review. Those five people....

The next evening:
Ardeth approached the hotel "Cairo Suites" looking for Evy, Alex, and Rick. They had sent him a message about "The Creature" and Anck-su-Namun and he wondered what it was all about. He arrived and looked the woman direct in the eyes. She gasped in horror at him-all dressed in black. "Would you tell me which room Richard O'Connell checked into last night?"
She fumbled through some papers on her desk. "Room twenty-two," she replied, wondering what he wanted them for. They seemed like such nice people, she thought, she was afraid the matter was "business".
"Thank you," Ardeth replied, making his way towards room twenty-two. He knocked on the door, which Alex opened.
"Ardeth!" Alex exclaimed.
"Hello, Alex. Is your father here?"
Rick heard Ardeth's voice and stepped into the doorway. "Hello."
"Your wife told me that you had another-run in with the creature again last night. She said that they come again in-in-peace?" Ardeth said the last sentence disbelieving.
"That's what they seem," Evy replied, stepping behind them.
"I find this difficult to believe," Ardeth commented. "What room are they in?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Evy, Rick, and Alex led Ardeth down the hallway to room twenty. They knocked on the door and Anck-su-Namun answered, narrowing her eyes as soon as she saw them.
Ardeth immediately knew she was Anck-su-Namun because of what Evy had told him.
"What do you people want? Again!" Anck-su-Namun glared.
Imhotep's voice was heard from the back of the room. "What's going on, Anck-su-Namun? Who is it?"
"Oh, no one!" she replied, trying not to make him stressed any more than he already was.
"What are you up to?" Ardeth demanded.
"We are trying at a second chance," she replied. "If you will just leave us alone for once, maybe we wouldn't be trying to kill you all!" It was her chance to vent.
"The last time we tried to leave you alone, you tried to take over the world!" Evy yelled.
"Will you get off of that, Nefertiri!"
Imhotep heard that name, and walked over to the door miserably. "Nefertiri, leave us alone or we will try to be evil again just to please you!" He slammed the door angrily.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Evy, Ardeth, Rick, and Alex walked away shocked. They hadn't expected them to be so sincere again, just like last night. They all went back to Rick's and Evy's room to plan.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Why didn't you tell me they were here again?" Imhotep demanded.
Anck-su-Namun was frightened. She had never seen him this angry with her before. "You were so busy stressing over a plan that I didn't want to disturb you! I can handle them on my own!"
"I'm sorry. I guess I shouldn't be so protective of you like that, but I love you and they all scare me. They could easily kill both of us if they wanted to."
Anck-su-Namun smiled. "They can't hurt you."
"Yes they can." He looked down at Anck-su-Namun. "If they hurt you."
They smiled at each other and huddled together, distributing their individual ideas to a plan to make her suddenly eighteen.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"We have to stop them before it's too late," Ardeth said, disrupting Alex's train of thought.
"Of course, but what can we do. They seem so sincere," Evy responded, shaking inside. She had been so close to Imhotep, the man that she had hated for thousands of years.
"Just like all the other times," Rick reminded. "Just like the time when Imhotep claimed to need to rise Anck-su-Namun."
"Just to be together. The only thing that he really did was love Anck- su-Namun, who was my misguided father's mistress, and they both killed him. That was their only choice. I would do that for you, Rick; would you for me?" Evy reminded.
"The Scorpion King?" Rick cried, remembering.
"That was their distraction," Evy defended. "Besides, if you could take over the world, wouldn't you?"
"No, but what about when I had almost lost you but Alex was smart enough because he was taught by you."
"If you hated someone so much like that and they kept trying to keep you from being with your love, wouldn't you kill someone?"
"Let's not fight," Alex said uneasily. He could sense the tension in the air. "Ardeth and I have devised a plan."
They all turned to listen to Alex and Ardeth as they revealed their plans to foil Imhotep and Anck-su-Namun.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Meanwhile:
Anck-su-Namun stood up. "What do you think they're arguing about?" They could hear Rick and Evy's angry voices through the wall.
Imhotep stood up. "Probably plans to kill us again. But that doesn't matter...."
Anck-su-Namun turned around to face him. "What do you mean 'it doesn't matter'? What is your plan?"
"We're leaving tonight after they fall asleep."
Anck-su-Namun smiled. She picked up the telephone to order some dinner for her and Imhotep. Hey, if they were going to flee during the night, they couldn't do it on an empty stomach!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"What time to we meet, again?" Rick asked, making sure his ears were hearing correctly.
"Midnight," Alex replied, "then we meet outside and wait for them. They're likely to run away from here once they know we have a plan."
"We'd better all get some sleep," Rick commented, "that is if we're all going to be awake at midnight stopping evil villains and all."
"Richard O'Connell!" Evy's voice had a hint of warning.
"They know we have a plan," Ardeth said, "They know everything because of Imhotep."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"We'd better get some sleep before midnight," Imhotep told her. "I know they have a plan against us. I have a feeling in my bones."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Note: How'd you like that chapter? Well, we will never find out until you review, now will we? I know some of the Evy and Rick and Ardeth fans will be mad at me because Evy finally understood Anck-su-Namun and Imhotep and Ardeth seems a little mean, but I like all the characters! Don't flame me, please, because all the characters are my favorite, and there's a point to it all. You'll see sooner or later. This story's gonna be long, and I'm just going off the top of my head as I go along. But anyway, review!
