I hope everyone had an excellent Christmas and hope that you all got what you asked for.

Chapter 19

The Moonray landed just outside the museum in London. Its systems shut down as the landing clamps clamped into place. With a hiss the door at the side lifted opened allowing Steve Rogers still in his Captain uniform to step out of the jet. He was followed by Nightshade. Jumping down the final few steps Steve looked at the problem that was London was facing. Soldiers wearing black uniforms stood outside the museum. They were not fazed by the suddenly appearing alien jet that landed just in front of them. These soldiers were making sure that no one got entrance into it until the problem was resolved.

The problem was Seth. The Demigod had finally made his move when they were all focused on Leatherback back in New York. He and Nightshade were only able to get to London thanks to the other Avengers arriving to help Iron Man and Thor. Edward also stayed in New York to help the UNIT forces to transport Leatherback to a UNIT facility outside of New York City just before Nick Fury arrived. It was hard for him to believe that that only happened a few moments after he and Nightshade left for London.

Looking over his shoulder he saw Nightshade bringing out her sword. Following suit, he grabbed his shield from where it was strapped to his back. The two were ready for what they faced within the museum. Nodding his head, he followed Nightshade up the stairs and towards the doors of the museum. The doors were closed with two UNIT soldiers standing on either side of one door. The two UNIT soldiers opened the doors for the two of them allowing them entry into the deserted museum. The reception area that not too long ago was filled with people was empty with nearly all the lights turned on.

"Where do we look?" Nightshade asking as he looked at everything that she could see from where she was standing.

Steve looked back at her. He kept forgetting that she was not from their world. "What did you find out about Seth from that meeting you were attending to this morning?" he asked when they started to hear strange noises coming from one end of the museum. The noises were animalistic from snarls and growls but there was also shouting in a long dead language that he did not understand.

Nightshade looked back at him. She was still holding onto her cutlass tightly ready to defend herself should Seth suddenly spring up out of nowhere. "I was told by the African delegate that Seth was the Ancient Egyptian god of Chaos. He was close to taking over the world if it was not for the works of some high priest at the time of taking his source of power away from him: The Book of the Dead!" she replied as Steve walked over to the reception desk. "What are you hoping to find there, Rogers? I am pretty sure that you do not know how to get on to their system!" she said when he sat on the leather chair behind the desk and began to rifle through the draw at the desk. He brought out a map of the museum.

Steve unfolded the map on the desk. Moving the keyboard of the computer to the side so that he could see everything on the map without it being crumpled. The map was basic. Nothing like the detailed maps of Europe that he got when he was over there during the war. It showed the layout of the museum and all the exhibits. "You said Ancient Egypt, right?" he asked her focusing on the Ancient Egyptian exhibit.

Nightshade stood beside him also looking at the map. "Does the museum happen to have the Book of the Dead on display?" she asked him as he read the small written about what was on display.

"It doesn't say. They just have a Golden Book and a black coffin!" he replied looking back at her. "The book might be the book of the dead and it won't hurt to check out!" he said rising from his seat only to be shoved down to the floor by Nightshade who had also ducked underneath the desk. Steve looked over at her. Her sword was lying flat on the floor almost hidden in the shadows that formed under the table. "What was that all about?" he asked only for the response from Nightshade was her telling him to be quiet. She then looked past a leg of the table to see what was going on. "What is it?" he asked keeping his voice low as Nightshade watched what was going on out in the floor.

Nightshade looked back round at Steve. "We're not alone! It might be a UNIT soldier but I am not taking any chances from hearing what Seth done to you and Edward back in New York!" she said reaching for her cutlass. She went back to watching the hallway ready to jump out at the sign of trouble.

"You think you can defeat me, Imhotep!" snarled a voice. The voice that not long ago was the voice of a well-educated young German man, but now it sounded like it came from some beast with sharp teeth. "I'll tell you one thing I am not letting you take away my book again!" the voice snarled as something impacted against the table that Steve and Nightshade were hiding behind. "I see that for your trouble you were put through one of my curses! How ironic?!" the voice boomed again. Again, something was smashed into the table. Steve had to roll out of the way of a leg before it got any closer to his hand.

A second voice then spoke out, "I was able to defeat you once before, Seth and I will do it again! I will burn this body that you have created and feet it to the Devourer!"

Seth began to laugh as he forced Imhotep back into the edge of the table. "Why do you continue to fight against me, Imhotep? You know it is only a matter of time before I rule this world with humans in chains and at my feet!" Seth snarled as he dropped the Mummy onto the ground before kicking his stomach with a clawed foot. The Wereset was about to kick the Mummy again but this time something impacted against the back of his head. Snarling he turned around to come face to face with Captain America who had caught his trusted shield. He bared his sharp teeth completely forgetting about what was behind him. He roared in pain when something sharp and cold racked through his back. He swirled around to face a one eyed skeletal tiger. The tiger roared revealing sharp teeth like the saber toothed tiger. The tiger stalked closer to the Wereset that towered well above it but it didn't seem fazed about the height difference.

Seth spun back round to face Captain America just in time to see a fist coming towards his face. He didn't have any time to move out of the way or block the attack. The fist of the super solider was much stronger than he thought. A tooth came flying out of his gums and he couldn't help but rub his tongue on his gum that was now missing a tooth. Growling at Captain America he allowed the Mummy to roar at him. A blizzard of flying insects flew out of his mouth surrounding the Demigod. Seth roared as he tried to swat the flies out of his eyes and mouth. The annoying insects allowed the UNIT soldiers that were within the museum to surround the Wereset.

Steve watched as Seth slowly got smaller as the beast that he was slowly receded back into its cage. His dark fur went back into his skin that slowly went back to pink with the tattoos still visible. As soon as Seth was once again human two UNIT soldiers grabbed his arms and forced them to his back. They then pushed him so that he was facing the ground and in no position to defend himself even with all his powers. Another UNIT soldier came with cuffs that were not of human design. The cuffs were Dalek in origin, able to hold back a raging Silurian or even a Time Lord known as the Doctor. Nightshade had nicked the cuffs the last time that she had been a prisoner of Davorus during the Time War. Seth was then escorted out of the museum and to the waiting Moonray that was waiting to take the Demigod to take him to one of UNITs Black Archive underneath the Tower of London.

They had caught Seth. The thing who had been behind the Red Skulls beginning and end. Steve thought that Seth would have put up more of a fight than he did. He was defeated by a bunch of flies, but that was after his brutal fight against Imhotep and Julian. Leading the way-out Captain America watched as Seth was blindfolded and bundled into a black police car. Once he was in the car it sped towards the Tower of London as the Avengers jet landed beside the Moonray.

"You better get back to America, Steve!" Nightshade said as Julian lead Imhotep to the Moonray. The werewolf and the Mummy talking about something that they both found interesting. "This is not your fight! You are not fighting in the Night Wars as UNIT keeps calling it!" she said as she walked towards the Moonray. With the pilot on board the Moonray quickly rose to the air and was gone in a blink of an eye.
