Chapter: Seven I believe.
Genre: Anguish, drama... heck everything! Whoo hoo!
Disclaimer: The Mummy belongs to it's respective people. Tho I sure
as heck wish I owned this...
Wouldn't this be one kicken trilogy?
Note to Readers: Talk about Luck. I was shocked to discover that people actually reviewed my last chapter.
I thought no one liked this and forgot all about it because I had not recieved any e-mails.
Fanfiction.net denied me of them! I threw in the towel and out of curiosity I checked and
saw your reviews!! Man I so apologize for not putting this out sooner. What torture.
Well, you will have to wait awhile for the next installment, it's on a cliffhanger for one
great reason.. I'm stuck. I have everything outlined out so I know how to end it but I'm
Stuck. Pray that I get unstuck. Hehe... And hey, e-mail me your thoughts!
Pen2page@bellsouth.net. Without reviews I stop production... hehe I'm silly that way.
Enjoy!! This is kickin!! You will adore it!!
Evi lurched and Rick almost ran into her. The scream echoed from the deep dark chambers
within. Rick wrapped an arm around his wife's waist and she tried to run forward.
"That's my baby..." She cried out painfully and Rick held tightly onto her.
"Our baby... and we're going to get him back." Rick said and his eyes hardened,
his burden behind him carrying all the ammunition and supplies he would need to take out
a small army... or one really spoiled, rejected Princess. Gently Rick pushed his wife behind
him. "Stay behind me." He warned and she followed after him, Ardeth Bay, Jonathan and
Nick bringing up the rear.
"That pilot will be all right won't he Rick?" Nick asked and Rick shrugged, his
torch held high in front of him.
"He wasn't shot... he'll live." Rick said then quickened his pace, following down an
eerily familiar path. Evi shook, her nostrils flaring slightly as an old feeling traveled through
her bones.
"Darling..." She began and Rick didn't turn but kept moving forward.
"Uh-huh?" He asked and she let out a breath uneasily, the dead spirits that dwelled
within this damned city unnerved her and images of alters and the dead flashed too clearly
into her mind.
"When..." She began and Rick almost smiled at her confidence. "When... we get
through this... Darling I think it's definitely time we hang up our... adventurous ways..."
She said, her eyes darting nervously around the place. That statement alone almost made
Rick stop in his tracks. If he had a free hand he would have reached back and grasped
upon her own but as it is, they were pretty full.
"Can I second that?" Jonathan asked from behind them and Ardeth Bay nodded.
"I shall third that." He said in his deep accent and Jonathan nodded and he took a
few more hesitant steps forward, trying to keep up but still being over cautious. He took
another step forward and the dusty floor beneath him vanished, his form sliding into the
hidden sands below, catching him so off guard, his scream was only released in the bowls
of the desert. Rick turned and stared at his wife, the light from the torch bouncing lovingly
off their faces. Evelyn stared deeply into her husband's penetrating blue eyes. He nodded
and wished he could hold her but she would be too much of a distraction if he did.
"That sounds great." He breathed out instead and her eyes softened, a smile
curving on her lips. "I think I'm ready to retire." He said, his old sly grin gracing his
handsome features. Nick smirked from behind Evelyn and it took all he had to stay focused
on what was going on around him.. his mind was a realm of chaos. Evelyn smirked as well,
her eyes teasing him.
"Indeed." She replied and Rick smiled, his form taking a step backwards. His gaze
looked past her then his smile fell.
"Where's Jonathan?" He asked suddenly and Evi spun around to stare.
"Oh no." Evi said and turned back to her husband. Rick took a step back, his brows
knit in confusion. Suddenly the floor slipped out from under his frame. His body felt
weightless as he plummeted to the unknown depths below. "Rick!" Evi strangled out as she
fell to her knees before the hole. Ardeth and Nick rushed forward and stood across from
each other and looked down at the hole. Ardeth looked down at Evelyn and put a hand on
her shoulder.
"You must stay here." Ardeth commanded and Evi looked up at him and her eyes
lit aflame.
"What?! A deranged women kidnaps my son and my husband falls into a pit and
you want me to sit here and wait?" She said as she began to rise to her feet.
"Yes." Ardeth bit off and his look made her stand frozen.
"Coming Rick!" Nick yelled as he jumped into the hole. Evi bent down to hear
anything. She heard a rustle then a loud groan.
"Nick!" Rick yelled and Evi gasped and tears sprang to her eyes.
"Rick!" She cried into the hole and Rick rose and looked upwards.
Ardeth sighed and sheathed his sword on his back. Evelyn moved back and looked
at him pleadingly.
"Protect my husband... He and Alex are my world." She said, her eyes betraying
her complete fear. Ardeth put a hand to her face and smiled gently at her.
"I shall swear to always protect you and your family. You are my dear friends." He
said and placed a soft kiss upon her forehead then jumped into the unknown hole. Evi
gasped and stared down the hole where her husband, no doubt brother, brother-in-law and
close friend had vanished.
"Evi! Go back to the dirigible! Stay there!" Rick suddenly yelled and Evi's face
twisted into anger.
"You want me to leave you in a hole and desert my son?" She snapped.
"Hello!" A voice yelled and Rick blinked as a dusty form began to stumble towards
them.
"Jonathan! What are you doing down here!" Rick yelled annoyed and Jonathan
stammered then straightened his back.
"I'll have you know it completely was not my fault the floor beneath me vanished!"
He yelled and Rick rolled his eyes.
"Evi!" Rick called and Evi stared down the hole. Fear and panic gripped onto him.
His son was kidnapped... again and his wife wasn't near him where he could protect her.
Tears threatened to brim over Evi's tender eyes. Her son was in danger, her
husband was in danger... she was alone, and uncertain of what to do. She knew deep down
that she wouldn't obey Rick in this... she could never wait outside as her family perhaps
went to their deaths alone. Death... she gasped as the horrifying thought struck her.
"Nefertiti..." A voice echoed down the hall and Evi's head jerked up. A gasp
escaped her lips as the word was again repeated and it bounced off the golden walls.
"Do you hear that?" Rick said, panic rushing to him as he stared at the three behind
him. Nick's eyes widened and his chest tightened. He knew that voice very well... Seeing
his brother's panicked face Rick looked back up and screamed again. "Evelyn!" He yelled
and he waited... he gulped, a hand crushing around his heart... Why hadn't his wife
answered. He yelled again and was only greeted by silence. He cursed and stared at the
three men behind him with determination.
"All right... my son is kidnapped... my wife is missing... We are getting out of here
now." He said and grabbed roughly onto Jonathan, spinning him around to grab onto
Jonathan's bag. He began to pull out dull red sticks and a grin came to Ardeth's lips.
Evelyn's steps echoed down the deep historical walls of the great temple. She
turned and began to head to the room where she was being taunted. Her teeth clenched
and anger rushed through her. She felt bad that she had left Rick and the rest of them in
that hole... especially without telling them where she was going. Yet, she remembered
something that Jonathan had told her long ago... It's better to beg for forgiveness then to
ask for permission...
Finally she came to the main room and she slid to a stop, her eyes widening in
horror. Another clang of metal was heard and Neferkare, drenched in gold swiped at the
women across from her. Black wavy hair fell down the women's shoulder and she looked
heavily weakened. The women cried out something in Egyptian and Neferkare struck her
across the head, sending the women sprawling to her knees at Neferkare's feet.
"Mom!" Alex suddenly yelled and Neferkare's head snapped up in the direction
that the young boy was looking at.
"Alex..." Evelyn said, an emotionless expression coming to her face as she locked
eyes with Neferkare. An evil glint flashed in Neferkare's eyes and it was taking all she had
not to laugh as loud as she could. Neferkare sucked in a deep breath, her chest rising and
falling and she grinned. "I'll be there in just a moment darling... Mommie has something to
deal with." Evelyn said and a devilish smirk played on Neferkare's painted lips. With a
shove of her foot she tossed the weakened resurrected form of Nefertiti to the side. Evi
stared at her, her face was a mask of hardness and determination, her angelic features
poised for defiance. She took steps forward, her white shirt tucked tightly into her brown
pants, leather boots covering her feet. Her physical appearance was quite different from
Neferkare's... Neferkare was drenched in gold... scantly drenched, but in gold nevertheless.
Her arms and wrists were adorned with gold, her black hair had woven golden braids, Evi
stared at her, and a shiver washed over her. She was dressed in fighting armor... dressed
exactly like she had been the day Nefertiti had defeated her... apparently she wanted a
different ending this time... Evi wasn't ready to re-write just yet though.
"Neferkare..." Evelyn said evenly and Neferkare gripped at her tridents, a sick light
coming to her eyes, the pleasure of the kill... she could almost taste Evi's blood as it
splashed across the dusty earth.
"Nefertiti... come to dishonor me again?" Neferkare smirked and Evi turned and
grasped two tridents from an abandoned sarcophagus. On further inspection Evi would
have seen that it was the resting place where Nefertiti had been laid... but details were
something that could wait for later. Raising the cold weapons in the air in a beginning
stance, Evi turned and glared at her.
"Good... you remembered." Evi spat and Neferkare's smirk faded, twisting into
anger and she lunged. Metal clashed against metal as they began to walk backwards, they
were blocking each other's hits, hit for hit. Suddenly Neferkare growled and kicked, her
foot interacting with Evi's side, sending her sprawling against the first three steps of the
royal staircase where Imotep just years before lost his priceless immortality in the
underground chamber.
"Evelyn you child... How dare you even think you can be a match for me?"
Neferkare spat as she held her tridents at Evelyn's throat. Evelyn sucked in deep breaths
and stared at her, her deep brown eyes shooting daggers into Neferkare's. "Did you not
think that I would devote my life to beating you? You silly fool... I bet you never dreamed
that the past would come back to bite you in the ass.." Neferkare smirked and Evelyn
continued to stare. That was Adele talking. Suddenly a deep Egyptian accent caught
Neferkare off guard.
"I should have finished you off when I had the chance." The Egyptian syllables
came out clearly and a trident smacked across the side of Neferkare's head, sending her
sprawling to the left, blood trickling from the wound near her left ear. She turned to stare
angrily at the form of Nefertiti. She looked identical to the two women in every way, yet
her features were much more chiseled, she was priceless and every inch of her screamed
her nobility. She pointed her trident defiantly at Neferkare. "You have angered the gods!
First you steal their jewel in taking our mother's life... then you take mine as well?!"
Nefertiti screamed in deep Egyptian. Neferkare growled, the sound turning into a cry of
anger as she rushed forwards. Evi watched the spectacle of flying tridents, the metal
clashing against metal. Neferkare was right... she was most likely no match to her
strength... but Nefertiti... she might pull it off. A sudden urge inside of her couldn't let her
just sit there and watch as a helpless spectator. Gripping the metal weapons in her fingers
once more she lunged toward the battle. 'Forgive me Rick...' she whispered quietly into
her mind. 'But I can't stand by... this was my life and it needs to be finished.'
She joined the battle and Nefertiti glanced at her and Neferkare turned slicing at
Evi, her shirt ripping at her sleeve as the cold sharp metal interacted with her soft skin,
slicing it deep. Evi let out an annoyed cry as she began to back up, Neferkare pounding
upon her. Nefertiti rushed forward and grabbed onto Neferkare's hair, the violent tug made
Neferkare's neck snap back and Nefertiti sliced off a large chunk of her hair. Evi backed
up onto the steps, holding her tridents out and Neferkare turned to stare enraged eyes at
Nefertiti.
"Next time I will settle for your flesh." Nefertiti spat as she let the dark black
strands fall from her fingers to hit the dust. Neferkare growled and lunged. Her elbow
interacted with Nefertiti's stomach making the Princess double over in agony. She grabbed
Nefertiti by the hair and yanked her toward Evelyn.
"I am the Princess of Egypt!" She cried and Nefertiti glared at her with hatred.
"Think again." Evi spat in Egyptian as she kicked at Neferkare's stomach, sending
her falling to her bum back on the dirt. Nefertiti collapsed on the steps and Evelyn rushed
forward grasping onto her hand. A spark traveled through them and their piercing screams
filled the underground chamber...
"I am most glad she is not my lifemate... or I would have tied her to a pole by
now." Ardeth said dryly and Rick shot him an evil look.
"Hey... That's my wife! I love her, stupid ideas and all! Though this one I'm going
to kill her for..." Rick growled as his fingers lit a dull red stick of TNT.
"Right... shouldn't we be behind something? This flying debris is dangerious you
know..." Jonathan asked uneasily from behind Rick and Rick tossed the stick to the left.
They all ducked and hoped that this would lead somewhere. All the other sides of the holes
had been dead ends. Rocks and sand splattered across the room and dust filled the
chamber for the third time. The men waved at it with their arms and Rick rushed forward.
A small dot of light was shining through the dark crevice and he grinned.
"Got any more of those sticks there O'Connell?" Jonathan asked from behind him
and Ardeth walked forward and kicked at the gaping hole which two inches further would
lead to their escape.
"Nope. Start digging." Rick commanded and Jonathan gulped.
"Perfect..." He groaned and the four men began to push against the wall. More
light was slowly being exposed as the thick rock of an Egyptian wall slowly deteriorated
and crumbled. Suddenly piercing screams echoed down the halls and interacted with their
ears. Rick gasped and rushed forward, pressing against the wall with all his might. His face
was close to the small opening and he yelled as loud as his lungs would allow him too.
"Evelyn!!"
