Chapter 14: egypian rememberance
Cindy, thinking through her plan, decides to pack everything she thinks that she will need. She packs, in Jimmy's old hypercube, some food, plenty of water, a lot of weapons, all of Jimmy's old inventions, and clothing. By the time she is done packing, she has packed everything in the lab. Concidering the circumstances, Cindy sneeks into her house and packs everything from her room, and her house, into the hypercube. Then she stealthily exits her house, unpacks the hovercar, and drives the car, feeling so alone. As she is driving, she is dreaming of the long forgotten past.
Flashback
"Hey Jim, I still got your electrolife thingy that makes a light." said Carl, as he pulls the device from his pocket and flickers it on.
Just as Carl predicted, the device made a light. Unknown to them, the device also made the mummies come alive.
End of flashback
Cindy was about to sleep, as she put the hovercar on auto pilot, but there was a sudden jerk, that keep her awake. Suddenly, she heard the hovercar speak.
"Emergency, vehicle under attack. Must take immediate evasive course of action. Destination will be reached."
Dead ahead of her, Cindy sees a missile flying at the hovercar. She thinks she is going to get hit, however, as the missile approached, the hovercar ascended, avoiding the missile completely. Cindy hears a voice on the built-in walkie-talkie.
"This is General Abercrombie. You are under arrest for 32 accounts of murder and 13 accounts of assault-and-battery. Descend, or we will bring you in, dead or alive."
Cindy, knowing her mission, tries to explain herself to the fighters. When that fails, Cindy speeds up the hovercar, keeping it on auto pilot, to try to out-run the fighters. When she does this, the military aircrafts open fire. Miraculously, the hovercar avoids all the fire. Eventually, after 55 minutes of dodging fire from the planes, Cindy is out of American airspace, meaning that she can no longer be pursuit-ed by the American army. After Cindy starts to un-tense, she decides that she needs a companion, so she takes Goddard out of the hypercube. Cindy and Goddard "talk" the entire time of the trip, even though Cindy was the only one doing the talking. All Goddard did was not, pant and bark every once in a while. Finally, Cindy tells Goddard her plan.
"Once we get to Egypt, we are going to look for the tomb of Libby's ancestor, Queen Howsaboutislapya. We will then look for the electrolife device, and bring everyone back, and then I won't fill go bad about their deaths." said Cindy.
Goddard barks, sympathetically, as if he understood what Cindy was going through. Deep down, he probably did.
After another 30 minutes, the hovercar lands, coincidentally, right by the tomb. Cindy and Goddard climb out of the hovercar, which Cindy immediately puts back inside the hypercube. Cindy and Goddard bravely walk into the tomb. Cindy looks around for the room that her and her friends were in before. They walk into the room with the big statue in it. There she sees the three mummies that Libby put to sleep weeks earlier. The mummies were still in their deep slumber, so Cindy walks right past them. For safe measure, through, Cindy wraps them in rope, tightly, so they couldn't move or escape. To Cindy's surprise, after she was done, the mummies were still sleeping. Cindy walks over to the hole that Jimmy threw the electrolife down into. Cindy, not having packed a ladder, jumps into the hole, with Goddard by her side. As she approached ground, Goddard caught her in his mouth and slowly brought her to the bottom. As they hit ground, the hole above them shut. Cindy hears two familiar voices laughing manically. There was no light at the bottom so Cindy could not see anything. Fortunately, she packed a flashlight, so she took it out and turned it on. Goddard had also turned on his internal flashlight, so the room was now well lit. Cindy looks around in horror. There are dead bodies everywhere, and there was no exit to be found. Suddenly, Cindy felt woozy. Cindy slowly closed her eyes, and went to sleep. The last thing she saw or heard was the sound of Goddard barking noisily.
