Mummy 3- Lost and Found.

Summery: Four years after TMR, Jonathan discovers that his daughter, who he hasn't seen in 12 years, has found out about a ritual that involves Anubis, Imhotep, the Diamond of Ahm Shere and one of the carnahan family. But which one?

Disclaimer: I do not own The Mummy or any of it's characters. Samantha is my own character. I would like to own Rick and Jonathan though. If any of my story sounds like anybody else's or if I've nicked any ideas, please tell me, not sue me.

Reviewers-

jonnycarnahan- Thanks for your review. It took me ages trying to think of an explaination of Jonathan to give Rick about Samantha. Thanks also for agreeing with me about John Hannah being a great actor.

Chapter 5.

The next few days were some of the best Samantha ever had in her life. She got on great with her Aunt Evy, helping with research on anichant Egyptian gods because of her teachings with Ardeth. She got on great with her Uncle Rick, who helped teach her how to fire a gun like he did with Evy at Ahm Shere very well, this brought uncle and niece closer than ever. She and Alex were a great pair and as thick as theives, they always got into trouble and always got out of it easily. After Evy gave her constant, Samantha started teaching her cousion a few self-defence moves, using sticks of course (swords were absolutly forbidden, Evy said if Sam was gonna teach moves to Alex). He was a fast learner and soon got his more experienced cousion on the ground in submisson, she was proud of him. But, most of the time she spend with her father, Jonathan. The pair were almost inseperable, even Jonathan had forgotten about drinking while helping his daughter settle in, which she did quite easily. They would sit up for ages, talking into the early hours of the morning about their lives so far. The family were finally together peacefully, but the adventure was only just about to begin...

Temple of Anubis, one day later...

The vast temple was deathly quiet, even the mice and rats running about the temple were quiet. On the wall straight ahead of the entrance, was a alter for offerings for Anubis and behind that, a giant statue of the jackel-headed God himself. Then, all of a sudden, the statue started cracking in places, until the rock exploded and revealed Anubis, the God of enbalming. He spoke a spell in the old Eygptain language and a person appeared before the alter, this person was bronze-skinned, bald-headed and wore nothing but a lioncloth. Imhotep. As soon as he saw the God, he got down on his knees, crossed his arms over his chest and swore his alligence to Anubis.

"Rise, my new faithful servent, and be told of this task and do it right for a derserving reward" The God bellowed at the fully regenerated Imhotep. He got up and started listening to Anubis with intrest.

"This task, I can only give to you because you are one of the most powerful un-dead that can get the task done right. First of all, do you know of the Carnahan/O'Connell family?" He was satisfied when Imhotep give a nod of knowlegement. "Well, one of them has stolen my Diamond four years ago. I need you to get it back and the person who stole it to have my revenge on them. All I know is that the last name is definatly Carnahan and they are now the Keeper of the Diamond. When you do have the two things I require, you must bring them back here as well as the rest of the families. Then you must then sacrifice the new Keeper of the Diamond using this spell and this sacrifical dagger". Using another spell, Anubis summoned two objects: an anichant scroll with a very old spell on it and a golden-broze dagger with anichant writings on it. He gave these to his servent, who looked at them in awe.

"The spell on this scroll is very important. It makes the Diamond become a vessel to carry the soul of the Keeper in. The diamond will then restore my powers to their fullest and become a most powerful weapon. The family will be there to see one of their family members die before their eyes and make them too afraid to stop me. Now to help you on this tasks, I will only give you two powers for now, the power to turn into sand and the power to raise up any mummy soilders you will need to help capture the big family. Now go, go. You need to back here in five days the most".

"Before I go, my lord. What is the big reward you are offering me to do this task?"

"Your reward is the rest of your powers and an immortal soul that can never be removed, not even by the most powerful spell. Now you must go"

Anubis then turned back into the statue from before and Imhotep flew off in a whirlwind of sand into the night.

Same day- Eveing.

Samantha found herself back on the alter table in the temple again. Her family were still down the bottem of the steps in front of the alter, crying out for her release and safety. Looking up, she could see Imhotep raising the dagger and preying up Anubis for power. Down came the dagger, ready to strike it's target. But, behind the alter, the stone statue of Anubis began to break, until the God appeared before them. He looked down at Imhotep and started yelling at him about getting the wrong Carnahan. Everyone looked in the direction that Aunbis was, straight at Jonathan. He soon went calm and fearful againest the mummies that held him. Anubis told everyone that Jon was the new Keeper of the Diamond because he was the one who pinched it from Ahm Shere. He was the one Imhotep had to kill to get his powers. The servent soon went down the steps towards the nervous Englishman and raise up the dagger. Samantha struggled againest her chains, while the rest of the family struggled againest their captor mummies. But it was too late, the dagger went straight into Jonathan stomach. The rest of the family shouted out for him...

...Until Samantha shot up in her bed in the manor, screaming with a cold sweat going down her body. Her bedroom door shot open and in came Jonathan, Evy, Rick and Alex, wondering what the hell the screaming was.

"Sam, Sam, look at me. What happened?" Jonathan asked her, panicking about this. Sam just looked him right in his eyes, hugged him tightly and started crying. "Oh God dad, you're alright. Thank the Gods you're alright".

"Why, what do you mean by that?" Samantha pryed away from her father and sighed sadly. "Listen, I've got something to tell you, all of you..."

But before she could start, A man in black robes appeared at the door. "Sorry about barging in like this, but I need to talk to Samantha for a minute. Oh, by the way sorry about the door. Are you alright, Sister?"

"Yeah. What are you doing here, brother?" Sitting up in bed, she became interested in why Ardeth was here.

"It seems that your future visions are came true. We need all of your family's help". He looked round to see puzzled expressions on everyone's faces except Samantha's. 'This is going to be a long night' he thought quietly to himself.
