A month later, Evy was just beginning to show as she and Rick went to the doctor for her second prenatal visit.
"Is everything OK, Doctor Lee?" Evy asked anxiously.
Dr. Lee smiled. "Everything's just perfect, Evy. The babies are doing well and so are you."
Evy breathed a sigh of relief. "That's great doct- Wait, did you say babies?"
"Yes. You're having twins! Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. O'Connell! Now, do you two have any questions?"
"No, I believe we're all set. Thank you, doctor."
"You're welcome. Evelyn, you will need to make another appointment for next month. Have a good day!"
"Thank you, Doctor Lee."
A ship on the English Channel, 1924
The woman stood on the railing of the deck, looking down at the blue waters of the English Channel. It had been a long journey from Thebes to London, but she was going to go to the home she had raised her babies in in England. She needed to get a line on them, find out where they were. She looked around nervously, but saw nothing and no one out of the ordinary. She breathed a sigh of relief. Maybe she had lost them.
She was going home.
London, a few days later.
"Rick? I'm home!"
"In here!" Evy walked through the house and found Rick and Jonathan in the living room.
"Checkmate." Rick grinned and motioned to the chess board. "Loser cleans up."
Grumbling, Jonathan began to pick up the pieces off the board while Rick took Evy into his arms.
"How was your day?"
"It was fine. I spent part of the day researching Hamunaptra and our old friend Ihemotep-"
Rick groaned. "Evy, how about we stop with this? Don't you think we've had enough adventures for a while?"
"I was just curious!" Evy defended herself. "I was not proposing we go rushing off to Hamunaptra in search of Ihemotep's sister or something!"
Rick breathed a sigh of relief. "I can think of more interesting adventures for us to have" he said seductively.
Evelyn grinned. "I'm all ears, Mr. O'Connell" she said as Rick lifted her up in his arms and took her to the bedroom.
Meanwhile, at a port on the Thames River:
The woman stumbled off of the boat, clutching her single bag. In her hand was a single piece of paper. She took deep breaths to steady herself and then hailed a taxi. She needed to find her children. However, she failed to notice the mysterious man in black watching her and waiting for his chance.
A few hours later, Evy and Rick were relaxing in the living room, sipping beverages. Evy was drinking juice, and Rick had a beer in hand as he sat next to his wife, cuddling her. Jonathan was up in his bedroom somewhere, probably sleeping. Evy's hand rested on the slight bump in her stomach as she felt her babies move inside her. She swallowed the last of her juice just as the doorbell rang. She moved to get up, but Rick stopped her.
"I'll get it. Don't get up" he said, kissing her forehead.

The woman stood nervously on the front porch. O'Connell Manor, the sign over the gate had read. She hoped this O'Connell would know where to find her children. She could only pray that they had left a forwarding address. Maybe they even still communicated with him. This paper she had was several months old, but it clearly showed that O'Connell had helped her children find Hamunaptra.
Rick opened the door to find a beautiful, if slightly older, woman standing on the porch. Her golden skin looked out of place in the chill gray air, and her wavy black hair was immaculately brushed. Her face looked familiar, but he couldn't put a finger on it.
"May I help you?"
"I was hoping you might know where to find these two people" she started, holding up the newspaper article in her hand. Rick looked at the paper.
"Of course I do" he said, looking at her as if she were crazy.
"Rick?" Evy's voice came from behind him.
"Who is at the do-" Evy broke off, swaying, before she fell to the floor in a dead faint.
