Chapter 11: Pyramid of Ra

As the exploration team went deep into the pyramid, Uncle was carefully preparing his Chi spells with Tohru holding a lanturn to light the way.

"So why do we need the old man for?" asked Cyborg.

"Please, don't agitate Uncle" replied Tohru.

"Where do we know where we are?" asked Beast Boy who was at the back of the team.

"According to the archeologists who discovered this pyramid, the Earth amulet should be at the center of the pyramid" replied Captain Black as he passed a map of the pyramid to Beast Boy.

"So why do we need the old man's help?" asked Raven.

"The Earth amulet is guarded by the elite mummified preist of Ra" replied Uncle, "I would need some time to put the ingredients together for the Chi spell while you and your team mates distract the mummies."

"You mean we have to fight real mummies?!" exclaimed Beast Boy.

"Do you want to get the Earth amulet? Yes?!" replied Uncle, "Then do as Uncle tells you to!"

"Just until I have enough time to prepare my Chi spell" replied Uncle.

The group of explorers walked into a large room. Jackie and the Titans could see mummies in special armor along with unique sword to go with the armor all lined up between the walls of the room.

"What, these guys don't look so tough" said Beast Boy.

Suddenly the mummies had glowing green eyes and a greenish glow around their armor making them come to life.

"Jackie", said Uncle as he was getting his ingredients out, "help the Titans and Captain Black keep the mummies busy while Tohru and I prepare the Chi spell."

"Great" replied Captain Black in a sarcastic voice.

"Titans go!" commanded Robin as he directed his team mates to fight the mummified priests.

The Titans, Captain Black and Jackie Chan started to fight the mummified priests of Ra while Uncle and Tohru were preparing the Chi spell to stop the mummified priets. One of the mummified mummies came toward Jackie with its sword and tried to slice him, but Jackie dodged the sword.

"Uncle, how long?" asked Jackie as he dodged the attack.

"Just a little longer" replied Uncle.

Cyborg blasted two mummies with his laser cannon.

"Boo yea!" smiled Cyborg as he blasted the two mummies.

Meanwhile Robin was using his rod backing off an attack from another mummy.

"Raven heads up" said Robin as he got out of the way of the on coming mummy.

Raven used her powers to throw several stones at the mummy knocking the mummy down.

"Uncle has the Chi spell ready" said Uncle. Then Uncle made his famous chant. The mummies then turned into nothing but dust. Only the armor and weapons of the elite priests of Ra remained.

"Wow, Uncle made a good Chi spell to stop those mummies" said a voice to Jackie.

"Yes he did" replied Jackie, "Jade, what are you doing here?! Oh nevermind."

"These are the places you bring my son?!" cried another voice.

"You brought her too?!" cried Uncle.

"This is how you treat my son, bringing him to dirty run down places like this?" continued Tohru's mother in a harsher voice.

"But mother, I am his apprentice" replied Tohru, "I must follow my sensai's orders."

"The only orders you will be following are mine" scolded Tohru's mother.

"Yes mommy" replied Tohru.

"Jade does this happen everytime when Tohru's mom is over" whispered Beast Boy.

"Sure" replied Jade, "and Uncle gets really mad when he's called a 'billy goat'."

"Please Uncle" said Jackie as he rushed to break up a fight between Uncle and Tohru's mother, "we don't need this now. We need to find the Earth Amulet before the Dark Hand and the Hive do."

"Yes" replied Uncle, "thank you Jackie for reminding me that, before I lost my temper when she came along. Come, follow Uncle this way."

Everybody else followed Uncle deeper within the pyramid, unaware they were being followed by the Dark Hand and the Hive along with several of Slate's robotic ninjas.

"I am getting quite impatient Jinx" said Valmont as he was walking through a narrow pathway following closely behind Jinx.

"Patience Valmont" replied Jinx, "the Earth Amulet is not that far away."

As they got closer Valmont could see a large room ahead. The skull on the scepter grew bright red as they slowly entered the room. Suddenly at the other end of the room, the Titans along with Jackie, Tohru and Captain Black were on the other side of the room.

"We've should have expected this" said Fynn, "come on boys, let's get them!"

Fynn, Ratso and Chow charged right at the Titans. Robin immediately instructed the Titans to get the amulet. As Starfire tried to make her way toward the amulet which was sitting on the table in the center of the room, Fynn used the heat beem eye Tailsman or the Pig Tailsman to try to stop her. As Starfire dodged the lasers coming out of Fynn's eyes, Chow used the Dragan Tailsman and tried to use it against Cyborg as he was racing toward the amulet. Cyborg managed to dodge the first few blasts, but the last dragon blast almost hit Cyborg if it were not for Raven shielding Cyborg from the attack.

"Go" said Raven as she puts up a shield with her power, "I'll hold him off."

As Cyborg ran toward the amulet, Ratso pointed the Monkey Tailsman at Cyborg.

"Hmm, I wonder what would a metal turtle would look like" said Ratso trying to aim the Tailsman at Cyborg. But before Ratso could use the magic Tailsman, Captain Black raced right toward Ratso and kicked the Tailsman out of his hand. The Tailsman fell right on the ground.

"Hey, no fair!" cried Ratso.

As Ratso was about to back up, he bumped into El Toro. As sweat ran down Ratso's forehead he paniced and picked up the Rabbit Tailsman and managed to evade being grabbed by El Toro as El Toro tried to squeeze him with a bear hug. Ratso ran so fast that he didn't see he was running right into Viper. Viper's fist was coming right at Ratso, punching him right in the nose and sending him flying across the room, dropping the Tailsmans he was holding. Viper quickly grabs the Tailsmans and races toward Tohru giving him the Tailsmans Ratso once held.

"Jackie, help Cyborg retrieve the amulet!" pointed Uncle at the amulet.

Jackie leaped toward Cyborg to help him evade Slate's robotic ninjas that were on his trail. Jackie kicks two of the robotic ninjas down to the ground, giving Cyborg more room to get the amulet. But as Cyborg was about to approach the amulet, he was struck down by Valmont's enhanced laser that was attached to his new armor he retrieved from Slate. Although Cyborg was damaged from the sneak attack he managed to get up. Jackie saw this and leaped toward Valmont, kicking Valmont down to the ground. Chow was still busy using the Dragon Tailsman at Raven, unaware that El Toro was right behind him. As El Toro grabbed Chow, Chow used the Ox Tailsman and threw El Toro across the room, almost hitting Raven.

"That's got to hurt" said Paco covering his eyes.

Jackie then grabbed the Earth Amulet from its place. But after Jackie grabbed the amulet, the entire pyramid started to shake as if there were an earthquake.

"We have to get out of here" said Captain Black.

Viper threw the Rabbit Tailsman to Jackie. Once Jackie grabbed the Tailsman, everybody else fled the pyramid as Jackie raced around the pyramid dodging falling debris. Jackie managed to step out of the pyramid alive and well as everybody could see.

"Well done Jackie" said Captain Black, "the Earth amulet would be safe in our hands."

"Yes" said Robin, "we'll be glad to watch over the amulet under our watch."

"We just have one more amulet to go" said Uncle, "as for the rest of you except for the Titans, get out!"
