CHAPTER 1

Evelyn Carnarhan-O'connell sighed as she read through the thick stack pages of the book she was reading after finding a new artifact from Egypt, it has been six days since she has come back from Egypt. She missed being home, it took a lot of work trying to convince Rick to let her go after Imotep's second defeat. It seems after that incident he got so overprotective, in Egypt he wouldn't even let Evy visit their old friends because they might have a problem. But she was glad she was able to go to Egypt, Rick was out with Alex for a father-son day and this was their first time. The two have been having a bit trouble with their relationship as father and son, so they wanted to sort that out and Evy was very glad. Not only that she seem to be having a lot of quiet time with her library and work. She heard the door being open and then two happy voices of her husband and son.

"We had fun didn't we?" she heard Rick say laughing.

"Yeah, and I threw those pies at you." she heard Alex say laughing also.

She got up and went to them, both of them went putting their jackets on the racket and they smiled at her, Evy smiled back.

"So you two had a lot of fun?" she asked, Alex came to hug his mother and pulled back looking up at her.

"Yes we did, we went to these cool places, and in this restaurant someone started a food fight. We had lots of fun." she smiled patting his head.

"Now you go upstairs and take a bath." Alex whined.

"Mom can it wait?"

"No it can't now go." she smiled, Alex slowly smiled running up the stairs. Rick came to her and then kissed her on the lips sweetly then pulling back.

"I missed you." he said.

"I missed you too." she said back making him grin. After Alex had his bath the family know were having dinner, having a convedrsation they always have.

"Alex tell her about that fat lady." Rick told Alex.

"Yeah, this lady was walking down the road with this really high heels and then one of them got stuck in one the sewer. Dad helped her but she ended up going home with one shoe." Evy laughed along with Rick. They talked about a whole lot of things during dinner, suddenly the doorbell ranged and Evy stood up.

"I will get it."

She went to the door and opened it, a black man who was badly injured with stained bandages was on the porch. He looked very familiar.

"Izzy?" she asked shocked, she heard him moan in pain and she quickly went to hold him.

"RICK!" she shouted for him to hear, moments later Rick came out with Alex following behind.Rick was shocked at the injuries on his friend Izzy, he bent down to help Evy carry him only to hear him yell in pain.

"Do worry we'll get you fixed." they both carefully carried Izzy into the living room on the couch, Rick turned to Alex who was standing there shocked.

"Alex go get the doctor." he ordered and Alex ran out the door to go next door where the doctor was living in, he knocked hard on the door. Moment later an old man with a robe on and glasses appeared looking as if he had been asleep. Alex thought why would he sleep so early.

"Oh hello Alex." he yawned.

"Yes Dr Wurnos, we had a badly injured friend in our house." The doctor looked alarmed.

"Hold on let me get my things." he ran in his house with Alex waiting impatiently, a few minutes later he came back out.

"Alright on we go now, boy."

The doctor and Alex finally reached the O'connell Manor, they went inside seeing Izzy shuddering. Evy, Rick, and Alex had to wait outside for hours before Dr Wurnos came back out smiling.

"Well it seems he just had to replace some bandages, they were very thin. He will will fine." Evy hugged him and pulled back.

"Thank you doctor." Dr Wurnos blushed nodding, Rick shaked his hand and the doctor patted Alex's hair.

"I must tell you, you saved the night." Alex smiled as the doctor left hom. The O'connells went back into the house seeing Izzy now sleeping.

"I think he should sleep here." Rick said his arms around his wife's shoulders. Evy noticed the tone of his voice meant fear, maybe Izzy was attacked by a new enemy. Alex and Rick went to bed and Evy decided to clear the table and read before going back to sleep, after her reading she went into her room seeing Rick sleeping and hearing him snore, she smiled and then changed into her nightgown and slept next to him on the bed. She felt an odd feeling, a feeling that soomething bad was about to happen. She smiled when Rick put his warm arms around her waist kissing her hair making her go to sleep without any worry.

It was morning, Evy woke and saw Rick had already gone downstairs. She knew she woke up late, she did what she was suppose to do every morning and went downstairs seeing Izzy sitting down with Rick next to him, Rick turned and saw Evy smiling at her.

"Good Morning." she went to him and kissed him. Izzy complained.

"Hey, I'm near you all so don't do any smootchy stuff." he said, the two pulled back laughing. Evy greeted him and went in the kitchen seeing Alex with the nanny Miranda.

"Morning mom." he greeted.

"Good Morning madame." Miranda said, she greeted both of them back. They all ate breakfast, it took a lot of talk making Miranda sit with them.

"No sit down." Evy said, Miranda smiled sitting by them.

"So Izzy how's Ardeth?" Alex asked Izzy who became quiet after his talking with Rick. He then looked sad and angry and sighed.

"He's the reason I was here." he said quietly, Rick looked shocked." A year ago, Ardeth told me he had a twin brother. They had some sort of a sibling rivalry, when they were thirteen his brother Anhur ran away not knowing three years later Ardeth became a leader of the Med-jai men.When Ardeth met Rick and Evy he heard that his brother was trying to take his place but never suceeded.."

"He never told us." Rick said, Izzy nodded.

"Three months later after he told me this, his brother came and took his place. Anhur somehow made the men think that he was doing all these bad things because they had to be strong, fearful. They listened to him, Ardeth is still a med-jai but he is working for him. He can't do anything about it and I never saw him when his former man attack cities for no reason, I complained and recieved these injuries. Anhur has been killing innocent people, some men he just takes them to fight for him. Women were taken as slaves." he said.

"Slaves!" Rick said. Izzy nodded.

"Why can't Ardeth do anything about it?" Evy asked.

"Because if he does he will have his loved ones killed and if he goes away, his brother will burn every house in the cities to find him." Izzy said sadly.Rick got up.

"I'm going to Egypt, Evy and Alex will stay here." Evy stood up looking at him.

"Rick, no!" she said, he looked at her.

"Look Evy I don't want people dying. I will be alright."

"How do I know that, Rick! Some things come unexpectedly." she yelled.

Miranda stood up and held Alex's hand pulling him into another room, she always does when Rick and Evy are arguing.Rick sighed holding Evy's shoulders.

"Evy look at me." she didn't, she was looking away and he put a finger to her chin moving her face to him.

"I promise I won't be harmed." he said.

"But-"

"No buts, I will be back I promise." she hesitated and slowly nodded. He smiled sadly hugging her close and pulling back.

"I promise." he then kissed her, Evy felt that it was his last kiss. And then a 'bang' on the door was heard. And then another one was heard followed by crashing sounds on the windows. Very familiar men identified as Ardeth's Med-jai warriors started coming in.

"How the hell did they came here?" Rick said, one of the men threw a dagger and luckily he caught now proceeding to go and fight them. Also he was glad his gun was right on the table next to the couch., when he had punched one of the men and went to get it someone took it with so much speed Rick didn't even see. He slowly looked up and saw Ardeth but he had no tatoos on his face and had an evil look: it was his brother Anhur.

"Stop." he shouted when the Med-jai men were about to stab Rick. Rick got up as Anhur pointed the gun at him.

"Since Izzy is here I trust you know who I am?"

"Yes." Rick glared at him. Anhur heard noise, he turned and saw in a corner Evy stood. Izzy was pushing one of the men off him and Miranda holding Alex, he smirked and looked at Rick.

"I must tell you O'connell but you have very beautiful women in here, especially the one standing next to table." he said. Rick then punched him and quickly held the gun. Anhur stood up again wiping the blood of the corner of his mouth.

"By that punch I am guessing that she is your wife, correct?"

"Correct." When the men were about to fight Rick, Anhur raised his hand stopping them. And then he punch Rick who blocked it and used the gun missing Anhur. Anhur took out a sword, two of them and gave one to Rick.

"Let's play fair."

Evy looked at them then at one med-jai who was grinning at her. She couldn't move because he was looking at her, she looked at the knife on the table and then at him. But he was now looking somewhere else, she took the knife and whispered for Miranda and Alex to go.

"HEY!" One of the men saw them and was running to them but Evy threw the knife at him, Izzy was now fighting the other men. He was in pain when they hit his injured parts. Rick was cut on the leg, but he still fought. Anhur was smirking while fighting with Rick which made him mad because he was losing. Anhur blocked Rick's sword with his sword, Evy saw Alex was being grabbed by one of the Med-jai's.

"Mom! Let go." Alex yelled and kicked him.

Evy heard Miranda screaming and then a sound of killing. She felt her heart break and looked at Rick,he was kneeling on the ground with Anhur in front of him, his sword in his chest. She fought the Med-jai off her.

"RICK!" she screamed crying. Anhur removed his sword, and Rick fell to the ground. She looked at Anhur who now turned to her smirking, she was grabbed by three of the Med-jai warriors and they threw she to the ground, she went to Rick looking at him and holding his cheek. He looked at her and smiled.

"I-I love you." he said and she kissed him forgetting Anhur was there. But when she pulled back, he didn't moved.

"He's dead." she looked up at Anhur glaring at him. She was hit him but he held her arms.

"You looked oddly familiar."

"She's Evelyn Carnarhan master, the one Ardeth talks of." one Med-jai said but Evy did'nt look.

"Ah yes, you were on that picture he has." he grinned evilly.

"Let go of me." She said dangerously.

"I'm afraid I can't, actually I won't." she gasped when he grabbed her neck."You will be my slave, scrubbing my floors, making my food, that is by day. And at night.."she struggled from his grasp hearing the men laugh quietly."I think you have the idea." he released her.

"I will never be your slave!" she yelled.

"Alright.." He turned to Alex held by two men." Bring him." they did, and Anhur held him bringing out his sword.

"NO DON'T" Evy shouted when Anhur pointed the sword to his neck, she began to cry.

"Don't? I thought you didn't want to be my slave." he was about to cut Alex who shut his eyes.

"No! I will, just please don't kill my son." she said. Anhur let Alex go until he saw his Med-jai mark.

"In fact he will fight for me, at least he will not die." Evy hesitated but nodded. Anhur smirked.

"It's settled then."
