"We gotta put this Mummy down fast. The longer we wait the stronger they get". Rick yelled as he ran down the stairs of the museum with Kat and their daughter (who's hand was firmly in Katharine's grip) following closely behind him.
"Open the gate" Rick shouted as he got closer to the guards standing near the closed gate. "Open the gate"!
"Abby I need you to stay right beside me, okay"? Katharine pleaded desperately with her daughter as she watched her husband run into the middle of oncoming traffic.
"Mum, calm down. I promise I won't leave your side". Abby said calmly trying to smile reassuringly at her mother but she knew she hadn't done any good in trying to calm her mother down as was proven by the vice like grip on her wrist.
"You wanna drive"? Rick asked his wife after he had pulled the man out of his truck. What ... He said excuse me ... sort of.
"Why not"? Katharine said before easily catching the keys thrown to her. The trucks seat could easily fit 2 adults and an almost teenage girl. Abby quickly hopped into the middle of the truck as her mum got behind the wheel.
"God I love a woman who can drive a truck" Rick muttered to himself loud enough for Abigail to hear and pull a face. While she adored the fact how much her parents loved each other, hearing them flirt was a whole another matter.
"What kind of truck doesn't have seatbelts"? Abby asked as she looked around for a seatbelt. Giving up on the idea of having any sort of safety she looked out the window to see her dad throwing money at the guy he'd quite roughly pulled out of the truck.
"Hit it, Honey" Rick yelled out as he climbed up into the back of the truck. Abby looked back at her father and saw the stacks and stack of crates surrounding him.
"Dad … what's in the crates". Abby asked her father wearily. If it was dynamite she was so going to kill Alex for getting them into this situation. Rick quickly opened one of the crates to his left before turning to his daughter.
"Fireworks". Abby's rolled her eyes at her father's answer. Yep definitely killing her brother.
"Look there's Uncle Jon" Abby yelled as she pointed towards her uncle who was screaming in horror as he stared at his now destroyed Rolls Royce.
"Oh great, we're never gonna hear the end of that". Katharine Grumbled underneath her breath as she quickly pulled up beside her brother. "Jonathan get in the back with Rick".
"You guys are like mummy magnets". Jonathan cried as his brother-in-law pulled him into the back of the truck. As soon as Katharine saw her brother was safely in the trailer of the vehicle she took off as quickly as she could, which wasn't all that fast considering the truck her husband had stopped seem to be a hunk of junk.
"Hey, we could use this". Abby's brow furrowed when she heard her Uncle Jon call out and she quickly turned around to see him hold a fire work in his hand, burying her head in her hand she mumbled only loud enough for her mother to hear her "This is not gonna end well".
"Give me that". Rick yelled before bashing open another crate and whooping in victory when he saw what lied inside. Abby quickly whirled around when she heard him and her face quickly contorted into one of horror when she saw the massive dragon firework. She was so going to kill her father after she killed her brother. "Size Counts".
"Will you two grow up, they're getting away" Katharine rolled her eyes as she tried to navigate the traffic blocking her way to the carriage and her son "For god's sake move"!
"Just Drive" Rick yelled as he thumped his elbow into the roof of the car.
"I'm going as fast as I can Rick with this hunk of junk that you picked out". Katharine yelled angrily making her husband quickly go silent as he told Jonathan what to do. His wife terrified him sometimes.
"FIRE"! Abby heard her father yell and she watched in shock as the huge firework head straight for the emperor only for him to kick it away and for it to smash into a bus full of civilians. Abby's mouth opened in horror before she quickly whirled around when she heard her Uncle screaming in terror.
"Spank my ass. Spank my ass". Abby mouth dropped open once again this time in disbelief as she watched her father hit her uncle ass (which was on fire) with his jacket. She turned towards her mother and was about to day something when her mother held up a hand with an irritated look "I don't want to know".
Abby turned her head out the window only to see a market full of people were screaming in terror as a maniac drove down the middle of the place. Said maniac being her own mother.
"Mum/Kat What are you doing". 2 sets of voices, one from beside her the other above her, yelled out in terror".
"Taking a short cut" Katharine shouted back as she concentrated on not running anyone over and ignored the screaming from above her. Bursting through a brick wall she quickly turned back onto the main street ending up in front of the carriage. "See, Short cut".
"Right, now he's chasing us" Rick yelled as he pulled his gun out and started shooting at the stone emperor. Only for the soldier with him to start shooting back. Abby gave a short scream as the glass behind her head broke.
"Abby get down". Katharine yelled as she felt the bullet whip past her ear. Abby thankfully listened as she scooted down the seat so you couldn't see any of her above the chair or out any of the windows.
"Here, Give me your hand". Rick said as he sat down and leaned into the now broken window. As soon as his wife held her hand out he gave her the spare bullets for her gun. "You're gonna need these. Don't wait up for me".
"Where are you going". Katharine said as she turned to look at her husband only to have him kiss her quickly on the lips before standing back up.
"Out"! Rick yelled out as he jumped onto one of the horses attached to the Emperors carriage. Katharine rolled her eyes when she saw what her husband had done.
"Your father is going to get himself killed one day with all of his foolish stunts". Abby giggled as she sat up when she heard no more gunfire and scooted across the middle seat as she saw her Uncle Jon start to make his way around the side of the vehicle.
"Where's Rick"? Jonathan asked as he sat on the seat Abby now between him and her mother.
"Where do you think, Uncle Jon". Abby rolled her eyes.
"We've got to go back and help Rick". Katharine said to her brother as she worried for bother her husband and son.
"Rick! Forget Rick". Jon yelled as he looked behind them to see the carriage speeding up. "Here they come".
"Oh, my god". Abby mumbled when she saw the back of the truck was on fire and starting to ignite all the fireworks. "Mum".
"I know". Katharine murmured to her daughter as she opened her door, Jonathan following suit. "Get ready".
She wanted to keep holding on as long as she could to give Rick a chance to get their son away from the Emperor safely but the moment she no longer could she grabbed her daughter and jumped out of the car, curling herself around Abby to protect her from the blow.
"You okay"? Kat asked her daughter after they had stopped rolling.
"I'm going to kill Alex". Katharine laughed at that.
~*Break*~
Later that night they were all back at Imhotep's. Jonathan was behind the bar pouring everyone a stiff drink while Katharine was getting a bag of ice. Katharine handed her husband the ice and giggled as he pressed the ice to his family jewels and almost collapsing in relief.
"Not funny". Rick mumbled to his wife which just set her off again this time with their daughter following suit.
"Sorry, my love". Katharine gave one last giggle before biting her lip. "We'll … stop laughing now".
"Yeah, yeah". Rick grumbled as he turned to look at his wife, smiling slightly when he saw the teasing little smirk on her face, before leaning across the bar table kissing her lightly on the lips. Even though he wasn't showing it he was scared he'd lose her again like he did the last time they had dealed with a mummy.
"Thank god" Katharine mumbled when Jonathan put the drink in front of her. She, Rick and Jonathan all quickly took a large drink of the very, very strong scotch.
"You know I would have killed the emperor if you two hadn't blown my cover" Alex angrily stalked towards him making the anger rise in Rick. Didn't the boy remember what happened to his mother the last time or did he simply not care? "I had everything under control".
"Yeah that's exactly what we were thinking". Rick snarled sarcastically.
"Obviously". Abby snarled at her brother making him look at her with a hurt look on his face. Rick was just about to step in and turn his son's anger on him when Abby spoke his previous thoughts. "Do you even remember what happened to mum last time a mummy awoke or are you just to selfish to care"?
"Abby"! Katharine reprimanded lightly knowing her little girl didn't mean the things she was saying in her anger. They were only coming out of her mouth because of how frightened she had been.
Alex looked towards his mother. Of course, he hadn't forgotten the sight of seeing his mother dead on the ground, her blood surrounding her. It still gave him nightmares from time to time. And it wasn't he didn't care he just … hadn't thought this one would wake up. Instead of trying to argue with his sister he turned to the man he was used to arguing with.
"Good going you raised another mummy". Alex mumbled as he leant against the bar.
"Don't turn this around on Dad, Alex". Abby defended her father. Alex continued to ignore his sister in favour of his father. Twelve years old and just as scary as their mother when she got angry.
"And this buggers got superpowers". Jonathan grumbled as he held his glass to his temple.
"So did Imhotep if you recall". Katharine pointed out.
"Not to this extent mum. He's got control over fire, water, metal and god knows what else". Alex said as he tried to remember all the powers his studies had brought up.
"And you dug him up anyway". Both Rick and Abby yelled at him.
"Yeah, well you're not gonna pin this one on me, dad". Alex yelled angrily.
"Why shouldn't he. You're trying to pin it on him". Abby retorted just as loudly only for her mother's loud scream to cut them all off.
"ENOUGH"! Abby whirled around to look at her mother and saw tears and barely disguised pain in her eyes. "No one's to blame here. Wilson manipulated all of us".
"That's true" Rick mumbled as his wife made her way around the bar to stand beside him, running her fingers through his hair as he laid his head down on her shoulder.
Abby rolled her eyes in disgust as she watched her brother walk over to the young woman from earlier and begin flirting with her. Katharine however smirked before walking over to her.
"I'm sorry, we haven't been properly introduced. Who are you exactly". Katharine tried to say as politely as possible.
"My name is Lin. My family has watched over the Emperors tomb for centuries. The Emperor cannot be killed unless he is stabbed through the heart with this. My Mother put a curse on it long ago". Katharine watched as Lin p4assionately and quickly said all this without seeming like she took a breath once.
"Right". Katharine mumbled as she slowly back away from the girl and started heading towards her husband and daughter. "Family meeting, Alex".
Alex rolled his eyes as he walked over toward his family.
"Sit". Alex flinched as his mother looked at him sternly.
"Down". He rolled his eyes at hearing the same tone in his mother's voice.
"Now". Abby glared at her brother making him look at her with wide eyes before he sat down rather sheepishly.
"What do you really know about this girl"? Katharine asked her son.
"Well not much. But after her help tonight I'm willing to go on a little faith".
"Faith … seriously". Abby rolled her eyes at her older brother blind stupidity.
"Time is running out". Rick jumped as he heard the voice from behind him and turned around to see Lin practically on top of him.
"You don't really understand the concept of personal space … do you"? Rick questioned making Kat smile slightly.
"If the Emperor reaches Shangri-La and drinks from the pool of Eternal Life, he will raise his army and no one will be safe". Lin ignored his question.
"As much as I'd like to stay this boyishly handsome forever … Shangri-La is a crock". Jonathan rolled his eyes as the ridiculousness.
"You used to say that about Mummy's to Jon now look where we are". Katharine said as she smirked at her bother making him roll his eyes again "Good Point".
"The gateway to Shangri-La lies in a mountain pass high in the Himalayas". Lin continued as if they hadn't spoken not noticing Alex watching her admiringly "Beyond it is a golden tower Once the diamond is placed at the top it will point the way to Shangri-La".
"Of course, it will" Abby grumbled right now all she wanted was to go to bed.
"Yang still has the diamond and that's where he and the Emperor will go". Lin said as she looked to the woman of the group.
"She's right". Katharine spoke up making them all look at her. "All the legends of the eye that I've ever heard mention a gateway".
"I like her Alex. She knows what's what". Jonathan winked at his nephew making him smile while Abby rolled her eyes irritated.
"Just say we were to believe you". Rick said and he wasn't saying he did. "Could you guide us there"?
"Yes, I have been there once. I remember the way". Katharine and Rick shared a look as they debated. Rick wasn't particularly willing to put his family in danger again but after seeing the puppy dog eyes his wife had perfect when they had been children, he quickly found himself giving in.
"Himalayas … we're going to need a plane". Katharine shared a smirk with her husband.
"I know just the mad dog for the job".
