Here's another chapter.

In the hotel bar, a large body man with a mustache, wearing a Union Civil War officers' uniform, his name is Winston Hevelock. He tells his old war stories to a plus size belly-dancer: "I'm one of the few survivors who fought at the battle of Gettysburg." He drunkenly stumbles into the fountain. "Oh, some bloody idiot spilled his drink. I fought along with many soldiers in the Union army and died with them, white men and black. I even respected the Confederate soldiers for what they believed in, not all for slavery. But in the end all the laddies both Union and Confederate died in the battlefield and buried in the ground. Good chaps everyone one." He said as he bumps into Nemo.

Nemo was walking to the bar but when he bumped into an old military veteran and says: "Sorry Winston." The old Civil War soldier stops and turns around and says to a former Union Naval Captain: "Nemo, ever since the of the Civil War..." He said following Nemo, to the Bar table even stepping in the fountain again. "There hasn't been a-a single challenge worthy of a man like me." He states his life up to his current age.

Nemo along with the Pines twins, the Gypsy boy, the Hispanic young man, the short-in-hight-long-haired-clown, and the long-red-head-jewel-thief-leader and her two henchmen. Nemo says to Winston: "I understand. It's hard for some soldiers to integrated back into a civilian life-style." Winston says: "I just wish I could, check in with the others and gone down in flame in glory. Instead of sitting here rotting on boredom and booze." He stated what he wished happened in his time of service as Sanson pours a bottle of whisky into a shot glass, but before he could drink it, Winston takes it. "Cheers." He drinks the whisky after he was done and puts the glass down. "Well back to the old base." He pats both Nemo and Sanson on the backs and heads back to his home in the Sahara.

As Hanson, Sanson, Grandis, and Nemo pour whisky into shot glasses, while Steven, Dipper, Marco, Mabel, and Amethyst drinks juice out of shot glasses. Grandis asks Nemo: "So, do weird things like this happened to you all time?" Nemo answers: "Yes. You weren't on the Mysterious Island, that island is one of many places that are weird." They all drink simultaneously, the Henderson and Daniels walked up to the bar to get a drink. Henderson says in disappointment: "Well we're packed up, but the damn boat leave till tomorrow morning." Sanson says in understanding: "Running with your tails between your legs I see." Henderson replies: "Yeah, you can talk. You don't have some sacred walking corpse after you." Nemo turns to Daniels and asks him: "How's your friend holding?" Daniels replies rudely: "He had his eye and tongue ripped out of him. How would you feel?"

In a hotel room where Mr. Burns is in, he's wearing a nightgown and his eyes are bandaged, in the room Preston Northwest returns, and a man wearing black robes and a masks shaped like a human's face. Mr. Burns says muffling: "I'm so pleased. To meet you." He reaches out to shake his guest's hand but Preston stops him and says: "Prince Imhotep does not like to be touched. A silly Eastern superstition I'm afraid." He explains to the blind and tongueless man who apologizes: "Please forgive me." He reaches for a cup of tea but spills it by accident. Preston says: "Oops. Mr. Burns Prince Imhotep does thank you for your hospitality." Burns being modest replies: "No." Preston Northwest continues: "And for your eyes. And for your tongue. But I'm afraid more is still needed." Burns questions: "Wha...?" He tries to grab hold of Preston who mores away. "The Prince must finish the job. And consummate the curse which you and your friends have brought one yourselves." Burns begs: "No, wait! Please no!" As Imhotep removes his mask, while Burns still frighten and screams. Imhotep's mask is removed to reveal his face covered in scarabs that scatter away to show his rotting flesh.

Back at the bar, the members of the crew, and two Americans toast their shot glasses and drank up. But then the spit the drinks out, and not just them everyone in the whole bar spit out their drinks. Henderson replies what his drink tasted: "Sweet Jesus! It tasted just like..." Nemo finishes the sentence: "Blood." He saw the fountain's water turn into blood. Marco recites a quote from the Bible: "And the rivers and waters of Egypt ran red. And were as blood." Nemo says in realization knowing what this means: "He's here." So Steven, Dipper, Mabel turn to each other and rushed out of their seats.

Connie walks into the courtyard of the hotel, and hears a storm, Steven exclaims as he and the twins rush with him: "Connie!" She turns around and replies: "Yes?" Dipper says to his friend: "We got problems." Mabel adds: "Yeah, a blast from the past." Then they look up hearing thunder and sees balls of fire raining down from the skies. The four youths hid under the courtyard sunroofs as the balls of fire hit the ground hitting and killing some British soldiers stationed in Egypt.

When the four youths stop, in front of a stair case, where Preston was coming down unknown to them. When Dipper turns around and stops him, and and pushes him up against the wall and says: "Hey! Preston you little weasel where you've been?" Then a loud roar is heard, Preston takes the opportunity to runaway.

Connie, Dipper, Mabel and Steven rush upstairs, to Mr. Burns room. When they reach his room they look in shocked and horror to see Mr. Burns dead dried up. The four youths turn to the Mummy regenerating some muscle-mass and some slightly better but still dead flesh, he roars at the four youths.

The members of the M9 are shocked to see the mummy regaining protein of flesh and muscle. Dipper says regarding the situation: "We are in serious trouble." Imhotep walks towards them, as Dipper pulls out a couple of pistols and starts firing only for the bullets to go right through him, hitting the vases sitting on the fireplace mantel. So Mabel uses her grappling-hooks-gun and Steven his shield by throwing it at the Mummy, but both proven ineffective. When the whole crew including Nemo, the two Americans, misfit pirates, the Crystal Gems, Mowgli, Wendy, the rest of the Magnificent 9, and even the Grandis gang enter the room, when Dipper stops firing, Imhotep picks him, his sister and Steven and throws them at their friends causing them to fall down on impact.

The creature then turns to Connie who is without her sword, the Mummy spoke in ancient Egyptian (translation): "You saved me from the undead. I thank you." Steven stands up seeing the Mummy about to kiss Connie, but stops when hears piano keys playing. The one playing piano keys is a white Persian cat, then he hears growling he turns to door entrance seeing Lion, King (an adult lion) and Bagheera, seeing all three the big cats growls at the Mummy. The creature was terrified by the four cats and he spines around into a small sandstorm fleeing the room. Dipper says after seeing the Mummy transformed into a sandstorm: "We are in very serious trouble."

At the museum of Egyptian history the crew, and two Americans are in looking for someone. Marco says to Connie: "He does seem to like you Connie." Steven says with a hint of jealousy: "Yeah, what's that all about?" Connie answers: "These's only one person who can give us answers. My mother's old school teacher." When they reach an exhibit, they see Ardeth and curator of the museum, wearing a suit and a black robe over it, an elderly man in his late 60's or early 70's bald but has a grey/white beard. "You?!" Everyone with a firearm pulls it out and aims at the two. The old curator says calmly: "Ms. Maheswaran. Ladies, gentlemen." Connie ask in a suspicious tone: "What is he doing here?" The old curator replies with a question: "Do you really wish to know, or who would you prefer to just shoot us." As so the crew lowers their guns and Amethyst says: "After everything we've seeing. I'm willing to go on faith here."

The old curator explains the story of the Mummy: "After the Diamonds became the heir to Seti the first, and they saw him being murdered by his own high priest. After he was captured and cursed with the Hom-die the Diamonds told us, that we and our descendants would guard Hamunaptra. So over time, we became an ancient secret society, to follow the sacred mission. For over 3,000 years we guarded the city of the dead. Sworn at man-hood to keep the high priest Imhotep from being reborn into this world." He explains as he sits down in one of the exhibit throne.

Ardeth adds: "And now, because of you we have failed." Pearl asks: "And you thinks this justifies the murdering of innocent people?" The curator answers with another question: "To stop this creature? Let me think..." Both he and Ardeth answer at the same time: "Yes."

Nadia sitting in another throne asks: "Question? Why doesn't he like cats?" The curator answers: "Cats are the guardians of the underworld. He will fear them until he's fully regenerated." Ardeth adds: "Then he will fear nothing." Daniels says in an upset tone: "And you know how he get's himself fully regenerated?" Henderson adds: "By killing anyone who opened that chest." Daniels continues: "And suckin' them dry that's how!" Ashitaka asks the curator: "So the Diamonds are responsible for the creature's punishment?" Ardeth answers: "Yes. But before his tongue was cut out, he swore to the Diamonds if he should ever rise from the dead he'll never rest until he sees the Diamonds' bloodline is severed." Marco turns to Steven and says to him: "Well sorry Steven. Since you're now a member of the Diamonds means you're on the Mummy's hit list." Steven replies sarcastically: "Surprisingly, this isn't making me feel better." Connie says out of remembrance: "I don't wanna cause for alarm, but when I saw him alive at Hamunaptra, he called me Anck-Su-Namun."

Ardeth and the curator turn each other after hearing that name. "And in Mr. Burns courters he tried to kiss me." Steven angrily growls in jealousy. The curator says remembering the other reason why he was cursed for: "Apparently it was for love for Anck-Su-Namun he was cursed for in the first place. Apparently after 3,000 years." Ardeth adds: "He's still in love with her." Connie asks: "Well that's very romantic, but what does this have to do with me?" The two men of the society order continues to discus the Mummy's motives. Ardeth continues: "It would seem, he'll try to raise her from the dead once again." The curator finishes agrees: "Yes. It would appear he's chosen his human sacrifice."

After hearing human sacrifice that isn't good news. Marco breaks the silence yet sounding sarcastic: "Oh great. You woke him up, so in return he'll kill you to bring his girlfriend back." Nadia says: "This isn't good. Not good at all." The curator says in disagreement but as an opportunity: "On the contrary. This can give us time, to kill the creature." Ardeth looks up at the ceiling window and says: "We will need all the help we can get. His powers are growing." Then everyone looks up seeing the moon blocking and eclipsing the sun. Marco quotes from the Bible again: "And he stretched froth his hand towards the heavens. And there was darkness throughout the land of Egypt."

In a ruin building, in city of Giza, Imhotep starts throwing his anger breaking every vases and even the table, he roars in anger. Preston hesitates but asks: "Uh...master?" The creature stops and turns to his minion. "I understand you're upset. And it's perfectly reasonable to be scared of a lion and a black panther. But being scared of a white lion-cub? I figured a powerful mummy wouldn't be easily scared." Imhotep replies in ancient Egyptian, (translation): "Cats are the guardians of the underworld. You wouldn't believe or imagine what they did to me, for the last 3,000 years. I cannot go near the woman who will become Anck-Su-Namun new body, so long those beast are near her." Preston says to his master with confidence: "Rest assure my prince. I got that taken cared of. Thanks to that gold, I hired a few mercenaries." He said with a confident smile.

Imhotep turns to see outside the window an old wanted poster of the Magnificent 9. The creature walks out and rips it off the wall and returns into the building, he stares at the picture especially at Steven's image. Imhotep asks Preston about the poster in ancient Egyptian (translation): "Who is this boy?" Preston answers: "Oh no one my liege. Just a peasant boy. Why do you asks?" Imhotep answers still in ancient Egyptian (translation): "No. This boy isn't some mere peasant. I smelled his blood. He's a direct decanted of the Diamonds bloodline. The same who drove Anck-Su-Namun to commit suicide and imprisoned me with the Hom-Die. I'll start with him, and then the rest of the Diamonds will know my wrath."

Preston says to his living dead master: "Well good luck master." Then the door opens revealing three mercenaries.

The first mercenary wore a black-blue robe and turbine, he has bad skin, and teeth, and is blind in the left eye but doesn't wear an eyepatch.

The second mercenary is wearing a grey shirt, with a brown vest over it and brown pants, he wears a read turbine, and has scar running down his left jaw-line.

The third one wearing a rag yellow hood, a black shirt and pants, and has a beard.

The first mercenary asks the former millionaire: "Are you Preston Northwest?" Preston answers: "Yep. And here's our master Imhotep." They turn to see the Mummy, the mercenaries gasp in shock at the creature. The second mercenary says still in shock: "So the rumors are true! The mummy has risen from it's tomb." The first mercenary swallows his fear and asks: "What do require of us, oh powerful one?" The Mummy replies as Preston translate: "I require you to retrieve the book of the dead, and this woman, alive and unspoiled. Kill the rest." He points to Connie on the wanted poster. The mercenaries bow and responded at the same time: "Yes master."

Back at the hotel room, the M9, Grandis gang, most of the misfit pirates, Pasifica and the two Americans are in discussing how to stops the mummy. Jean says in a serious tone: "We must stop him from regenerating." Connie adds: "Who opened that chest?" Henderson answers: "Well there's me and Daniels here. Oh and Burns of corse." Daniels adds: "And that Egyptologist feller." Pasifica asks: "What about my father?"

Daniels answers: "Nah, he scrammed out of there before we opened the damned thing." Henderson comments the former millionaire's cowardliness: "Yeah he was the smart one." Pasifica says stating her father's predictability: "Yep, that sounds like my dad." Connie says knowing the situation: "We must find the Egyptologist and bring him to the safety of the fort before the creature can get to him. Steven says in agreement: "She's right. Connie stays, the rest goes with me." Everyone begins to protest especially Connie: "Who put you in charge Steven? Besides I can take care of myself!" Steven didn't want Connie to abducted by the mummy, so Steven replies: "...Uh...Well...I guess..." Dipper being annoyed and impatient says: "Oh for the love of-Okay chicken little, clear the runway. I'll be the bad guy." So Dipper hoists Connie over his shoulder, walking into bedroom, and laying her on the bed, leaving the room and locking it from the outside, all while Connie protesting her friend's action.

Dipper grabs Daniels' shirt collar and says in a demanding tone: "This door stays closed. She doesn't leave and no one goes in. Right?" Both Daniels and Henderson nod yes. Steven is both uncomfortable and yet relieved and says to Dipper: "Thanks Dipper." Dipper replies: "No problem."

Marco comes up with a better more specific plan as Steven: "Well since there's a lot of us. That means we can cover more ground. Helmsman, you Bismuth and Albino Pirate go search for the Egyptologist in his study, while me, Steven, Dipper, Jean, Nadia, Ashitaka, San and I along with Wendy, Mowgli, Jumeirah and the misfit pirates go searching for the Egyptologist in the city and if we run into the mummy, slow him down do not engage unless you have to. Nemo and the rest of the crew will stay here at the fort to contact our ship and Grandis Gang you stay here with the Americans, stay with them at all times." They all nodded in agreement at Marco's plan, and so they're off.

In the stone housing where the common people of Giza live in, Dr. Chamberlin held both book of the dead and one of the sacred jars in his hands. He ran trying to find a way to leave Giza, but he turns around seeing a dark shadowy figure in the distance wearing robes. As the Egyptologist ran still trying to leave, the robbed figure suddenly appeared right behind the him.

In the Egyptologist room, the third mercenary searches for the book of the dead, looks in the drawers and cabinets, but can't find not realizing the Egyptologist might have it. Then Bismuth, the Helmsman and Albino Pirate entered the room, gaining the mercenary's attention.

The Helmsman says: "Well, well, well. Let me guess; spring cleaning?" The Mercenary tries to run for it, but Bismuth picks up a chair and throws it, knocking him down to the floor. The Albino Pirate comments: "Nice shot." The Helmsman grabs the mercenary by his shirt collar and lifts while saying: "Ho, you fall down. Here let me help you up!" He thrust him and backs him on a bookshelf. "What are you looking for? You don't barge into someone's room without looking for something." The mercenary replies: "I'm not looking for the book of the dead." The Helmsman says: "I never said what you were looking for." He pulls the mercenary off the bookshelf and lands him onto the table. "What's the deal with you and this guy hu? What's in it for you?" The mercenary answers: "I'm a hired sword, we were paid for this job. And it is better to be at the right hand of the devil, than his path. As long as me and my men serve him, we are immune."

The Helmsman pulls him again and thrust him to another bookshelf, and ask: "Immune from what?" The mercenary replies by insulting him in Hindu. "What did you say?" The mercenary replies in English: "I rather not. You just hurt me some more." The Helmsman drags the mercenary to center of the room under the ceiling-fan, the Helmsman says threading him: "Tell us everything what you're looking for. And try not to lie." He hoist the mercenary up to the ceiling fan, threading him to slice him alive, but the mercenary answers fearfully: "Ah! The book! The book of the dead! I was toiled to retrieve it, they said they want it back, it would be worth it's weight in gold!" As he was lowered, The Albino Pirate asks: "What's he want the book for?" The mercenary answers: "Oh, come on I'm just a hired sword, I don't know everything." The Helmsman hoist him back up, to the fan, "Ah! Something about bringing his lover back to life! But he just wants the book I swear!" He was lowered to the Helmsman's level. "Just the book I swear. And your young Hindu girl. But other that..." Before he could answer they hear a high scream, gaining their attention, the mercenary takes the opportunity and punches the Helmsman in the stomach causing him to groan and ache as the mercenary runs, then jumps out of the window, he lands on the ground and continues to run. The three crew members look out the window seeing a crowd people scattering away reveling the Egyptologist dead and dried up. The Mummy takes the book of the dead and the jar right out his hands.

The Mummy turns around seeing the three crew members in the Egyptologist' room, his skin is looking more lively but still decaying but has a hole in his right cheek and neck. Soon flies begin to fly out of his holes, and mouth, he opens his mouth slowly opens his mouth then his bottom jaw extends as he opens it while roaring as a huge swarm of flies flew out of him.

The three crew members close the window with the window doors sealing the flies out, but the people outside a screaming as they swipe the flies off them, the Mummy continues to walk ignoring the flies. The Helmsman says as Bismuth locks the window doors: "Well that's two down, two to go." Bismuth adds: "Then he'll becoming after Connie." The Albino Pirate states the situation: "And he has mercenaries. This will make things more difficult." The three leave the room heading back to the hotel.

Say I saw the latest episodes of SUF, and personally I think Steven proposed too soon to Connie. I think he should've waited till they were in their twenties, that way it's legal.

And I thought he was suffering PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder) but I think only veterans who suffered the horror of war and people who had near death experiences get those. And I'm not talking about surviving a decease or something I mean, like a car crash or explosion.

But I was wrong he's suffering cardiac stress, his physical wounds heal, by phycological is a different matter, given his early life and things to follow, this is reasonable. I think Steven needs to take therapy or did what Samurai Jack did in season five and go on a spiritual quest.
