Author's note: Sorry about the delay in uploading this chapter, please forgive me. It's because my teacher's been giving me too much homework. Please continue to review my story and thank you! (Zixian you can strangle me now.) Now, on with the story…
Evelyn could see that the water level is rising above her eyes, and she had this burning desire to breathe, but every breath she tried to take, she always choked on the muddy water. When she decided to give up all hope, a hand reached out and grabbed, then she blacked out. When she awoke, she saw a girl around her age, with a golden tiara on her head.
Evelyn
stirred, "Tiffaniri!" " Good. You still recognize me. Don't worry; your husband
will rescue you." Tiffaniri assured her. Evelyn was confused, why would she
want to try to help me? Didn't she want to get me killed? Or is she the one to
save me? All these thoughts raced through Evy's mind. "You have a sacrificial
victim?" Tiffaniri asked this time in ancient Egyptian. " It's a present for
Imhotep." Anck-su-namu replied. Then she turned to Imhotep, " I really should
have rescue you from that pit, for that I shall pay by killing Nefertiti." Imhotep
gave a sinister laugh, "Kill her!" Anck-su-namu commanded the soldiers to do as
Imhotep instructed. One of the soldiers rose and took a gold dagger, as he got
ready to plunge in deep into Evelyn, a bullet whizzed through the air and threw
the dagger out of the soldier's hand. The dagger flew and pierced deep into a
pillar, "Rick!" Evelyn exclaimed happy to see her husband here. Dozens of other
bullets from above struck and injured many soldiers below. Tiffaniri raised her
head to see who it was, and their eyes met, she gasped, "That Medjai…" "Let's
go!" Tiffaniri took one last look Ardeth and turned to exit the chaotic place.
When they got in the car, the museum manager gave Imhotep a little gold box,
with a few twists of the knob, Imhotep managed to open it. Peering inside, he
found half of the phoenix key, "This is the East phoenix key, where is the
West?" he demanded. "It is said that the other half is found in Nefertiti's
tomb."
Author's note: Sorry this chapter is extra short! I promise I'll write one that is longer next time! And what will happen next? Stay tune.
