Chapter Eleven: More Victims
Alexia Ashford stumbles through the dark alleys, looking haunted. She clutches the Book of The Dead in one
hand and her sacred canopic in the other.
Meanwhile, Imhotep is stalking her. A vendor turns and sees Imhotep's horribly decayed face. He reacts and
scurries away. Imhotep lifts his hood, covers his face, and moves in on the woman, who is heading into the
bazaar.

Inside Alexia's office, Vinny is ransacking the place, pulling out drawers and files and throwing them on the
floor. He finds a silver pocket watch, shakes it, then throws it into his pocket.
"Well, well, well," a voice said from the door. "Lemme guess, spring cleaning, right?"
Vinny spins around. Chris and Leon stand in the door. He turns and runs to the window. Chris grabs a chair and
flings it a Vinny. The chair smashes into Vinny's legs, sending him to the floor.
"Nice shot," Leon commented.
"Here, let me help you up," Chris said as he walked over and lifted Vinny off the ground and slammed him into
the wall. "You came back from the desert with a new friend, didn't you, Vinny?"
"What friend?" Vinny whimpered. "You're my only friend."
"Wrong answer." Chris tossed Vinny across the office. Then he grabs him and slams him against a file drawer.
"What are you doing with this guy, huh?"
"It is better to be the right hand of the Devil, than in his path. As long as I serve him, I am immune."
Chris slammed him against the wall again. "Immune from what?"
"Pishkah allat."
Chris tightened his grip on Vinny. "What did you say?" He then dragged Vinny to the middle of the room, where
the ceiling fan was at. "Tell me what this guy want, and don't lie to me." He then lifted Vinny off the ground,
so that Vinny was barely an inch from the rotating blades.
"The book!" Vinny screamed. "The black book they found at Hamunaptra! Imhotep wants it back. Said to me it
would be worth it's weight in gold!"
Chris lowered him back to the ground.
"What does he want the book for?" Leon asked.
"Come on, does it look like I know--" Vinny changed his tune when Chris hoisted him bach to the ceiling fan.
"Something about bringing back his dead girlfriend back to life! He needs the book..." He turns to Leon.
"...and you sister."
They were interrupted by a woman's scream coming from the bazzar. Seeing that Chris was distracted, Vinny knees
him in the groin. Chris doubles over and almost collapses. Vinny then jumps out the window, crashing into a
vendor's stand. Chris and Leon quickly run to the window and look down in the bazzar.
Down in the bazzar, the locals are screaming and backing away from the shriveled corpse of Alexia Ashford. A
partially decayed hand reaches down and takes the sacred canopic jar out of the Alexia's shriveled hand. It's
Imhotep, having regenerated even further. He now looks liks a skinless zombie. He looks up and catches eyes
with Chris. Imhotep grins, then unhinges his jaw, his mouth stretches to an inhuman size, and then a huge
swarm comes out of his mouth and races straight up at Chris and Leon, who both slam the shutters. The flies
crash into the closed window and immediately spread throughout the bazaar, sending people screaming and running,
while Imhotep cassually walks away.
Leon and Chris look at each other, panicked.
"Two down, two to go," Chris said.
"Soon, he'll be coming after Jill," Leon said.
***
Back at the British outpost, Alfred turns from the window, while Wesker sits in a chair next to Jill's door,
playing with his gun. Both look wired with fear.
Alfred walks toward the door. "The hell with this. I'm going downstairs to get me drink. You want something?"
"Yeah, get me a glass of bourbon, a shot of bourbon and a bourbon chaser," Wesker replied.
Alfred nods and heads out. Wesker just sits there, alone. He reaches into his jacket pocket, pulls out his
canopic jar and reguards it. A BREEZE suddenly comes in through the open window. The curtains flutter.
Wesker gets up and goes over to shut it. He looks out the window...
...and a mass of swirling sand comes rushing in the room, lifting him in the air. His body twists and turns
and slowly shrivels as the life is sucked out of him. Then he collapses to the floor. The swirling
sand changed, forming a human body.
Imhotep/Alexander has how regenerated even further. He looks human, save for the gaping hole on the side of his
face and another on his chest. A scarab runs out of the hole from his chest in into the other one. Imhotep
promptly begins to chew on the scarab as he takes the canopic jar from Wesker's corpse and steps up to Jill's
door.

Jill is asleep in her bed as sand begins streaming in through the keyhole, pouring onto the floor, forming a
large mound. Jill starts to toss and turn. The sand is gone and in its place is Imhotep. He walks over to the
sleeping Jill and studies her for a moment, thinking of his own lost love. He leans down and kisses Jill full
on the lips.
Jill opened her eyes and found herself sucking face with Inhotep. Then the door to her room was kicked open.
"Hey!" Chris shouted. Get your ugly face of of her!"
Imhotep stands up and says something threatening in Egyptian to Chris.
Then Chris shoved the white cat into Imhotep's face. Imhotep shireked, then he stumbled towards the window, which
was thrown as he spun, changing into the mass of sand and flew out the window.
"You okay?" Chris asked Jill.
"I'm fine," Leon replied.
Chris looked at him before tending to Jill.
"I'm fine, Chris," Jill replied. "Come on. We got to get to the museum."
