Warning this part will have a lot of Breaks in it so I can switch POV from Katharine, Rick, Evy, Jonathan and Ardeth to Imhotep, Anck-su-namun and Alex.

"That's the blue Nile down there. We must be out of Egypt by now". Rick commented as both he and his wife looked over the side of the Dirigible down to the crisp clean beautiful blue water.

"In ancient time's all this still belonged to the upper kingdom". Evy added on as she walked over to the pair.

"The oasis must be around here somewhere". Katharine said as she looked around the cavern.

"Don't worry, Kat, we'll find him. He's a smart kid. He'll leave us a sign". Rick called out as he walked away from his wife.

~*Break*~

Alex was in the process of making the next sandcastle for his parents when a foot came down on it.

"Surprised to see me"? Lock-Nah yelled as he picked Alex up, who was starting to shake.

"Leaving breadcrumb's, huh? Huh"? Lock-Nah continued as he shook the boy violently. Imhotep who was standing in the river turned towards the man with a glare.

"Lock-Nah! Put the boy down". Imhotep yelled at him making Lock-Nah scowl before doing as his lord commanded. He didn't understand why his lord was so protective over the boy especially now that they were near the end of their Journey. It couldn't be because of the O'Connell woman as he knew Lord Imhotep was in love with Anck-su-namun, after all it had been the reason why Meela had broken things off with him as she desired more power and Lord Imhotep could provide her with that.

"I hope your father enjoyed his journey". Imhotep told the boy before turning his attention to the river. He would make sure he didn't harm his wife during this but he had to get rid of O'Connell.

Imhotep used his powers on the river creating a tidal wave, one remarkably similar to his sand wave from 8 years ago. Behind him Hafez and Anck-su-namun backed away gasping although there was a slightly pleased smirk on the woman's face.

Alex watched in horror as a wall of water rushed towards the canyon.

~*Break*~

Katharine's eyebrows furrowed when she felt the air change in temperature slightly and the wind pick up. A loud rumble was heard through the canyon making everyone look around wearily. Evy, Jonathan, Rick and Ardeth walked to the front of the dirigible while Katharine continued to look behind Izzy.

Both Katharine and Izzy gasped when they saw the wall of water come around the bend.

"We're in trouble"! Izzy yelled out in a panic. Everyone turned to look towards the wave.

"Whoa"! Katharine heard Jonathan gasp as she backed away from Izzy and towards her husband.

"Does this seem familiar to you"? Katharine asked her husband as they watched the wave get closer and closer before Imhoteps face appeared in the water. The face gave a cruel smirk and seemed to laugh an evil chuckle as it caught sight of the Dirigible.

"Horus, fly"! Ardeth ordered the falcon as he threw his arm over the side of the ship.

"Izzy, come hard right! Starboard! Starboard"! Rick yelled out to the man as he watches Horus fly in that direction. Katharine gasped as she watched the mouth open wide before coming forward at a fast pace. The Dirigible was inside the mouth when it suddenly gave a burst of speed. Rick grabbed onto Katharine who nearly fell over at the speed as the Dirigible flew out of the mouth making the wave crash into itself.

Izzy quickly turned the corners as fast as possible as he tried to get away from the wave making Rick keep a tight hold onto his wife as they all stumble over the deck. Water crashed over the Dirigible making them all soaked as Izzy started to fly up higher.

Katharine followed by Rick breathed a sigh of relief as they stood up. Rick patted Katharine's cheek to see if she was okay as she managed to give a small nod in reply.

"Is there a little something you forgot to mention"? Izzy growled out in annoyance as he finally got his bearings.

"Uh people". Katharine heard her brother say from behind her making the group turn to him.

"My god"! Katharine gasped as she smiled in awe at the sight in front of her.

They'd reached Ahm Shere.

It really was as beautiful as the legends described it. A lush beautiful green rain forest with waterfalls scattered throughout surrounded a tall golden pyramid which sparkled at the top. To top it off the whole area was surrounded by a wall of sand.

"Ahm Shere". Ardeth added as he looked at the lost city with Evy beside him. Rick grabbed the telescope to look at the pyramid in the middle and when he saw the glinting at the top of the pyramid (just like Alex had described) he knew exactly where they we meant to go.

"Right". Rick groaned as he closed the telescope only for the same rumbling from before to start back up again. Everyone quickly turned around to face the oncoming wave.

"He's back"! Izzy yelled when he saw the angry face come out from between the rocks.

"Yes thank you we see that". Katharine yelled back at the man. The wave gave a burst of speed as Izzy turned around to the controls to accelerate...

"Hang on"! Izzy yelled as he flicked the switch and the Dirigible gave another burst of speed send Katharine flying out of Rick's hold and making her hit her head on the side of the ship. As the exited the canyon the Dirigible suddenly came to a complete and utter halt making everyone look at Izzy with wide eyes.

"Well that's not good". Izzy supplied as he ducked down, preparing himself for the oncoming wave. Rick quickly hurried over to Katharine wrapping his dizzy wife up in his arms as he tried to shield her from the wave.

"Hang on"! Rick yelled out to the others as the wave consumed the Dirigible sending it to the ground.

~*Break*~

Alex looked on with wide eyes as Imhotep walked out of the barely there river and over to the boy.

"Mum? Dad"? Alex sobbed out, slightly. Judging by the smug looks on everyone's faces he could only assume his parents were gone. Tears filled Alex's eyes at the thought of never seeing his Mum, Dad, Uncle Jon or Aunt Evy again.

Imhotep walked over to the boy and ruffled his hair making Alex cringe away from him.

~*Break*~

A little while later after everyone had woken up from their black out, Izzy was trying to stop the sparks and fire that were burning up his ship while Rick and Ardeth grabbed the weapons and supplies.

Katharine was sitting on a nearby Rock hold her head in her hand. She groaned at the noise that was surrounding her as she took to pain killers. She had an almighty headache thanks to that bump on the head. It seemed as if every time she went to a lost city she was going to end up with a bump on the head and a headache.

"We're gonna go get our son. Then we're gonna wanna get out of here fast, so make this work Izzy". Rick yelled out of the man who turned and glared at him.

"No, no, you don't understand, goddamn it. This thing was filled with gas. Not hot air ... Gas". Izzy told them man outraged at the Dirigible sparked near him. Rick rolled his eyes as he passed bags to Ardeth who in turn passed them to Evy, who put them on the ground.

"I need gas to get this thing off the ground". Izzy continued not really realising that he was being ignored. "Where am I gonna get gas from around here? Huh? Bananas? Mangos? Tarzan's Arse"?

"Well maybe I could finagle it to take hot air. But do you know how many cubic metres I'd need? It's too big"! Izzy calmly started to suggest after he received a heated glare from Katharine.

"If anybody can fill this thing with hot air, Izzy, it's you". Rick rasped out, his voice croaky from the smoke as he patted Izzy's shoulder. Rick smiled when he heard Katharine laugh from behind him as Izzy got a confused look on his face. He wasn't sure if he should be feeling insulted or flattered.

Katharine looked around as she stood up and smirked when she caught sight of Jonathan pocketing his gold stick that he and Izzy had been fighting over the whole way.

"Horus"! Ardeth called out as he held his arm out to the falcon that flew to it immediately. He tied a note to Horus's leg holding his arm out again as the bird flew off into the sky.

"So Rick, what's the plan"? Jonathan asked as the all started to walk off.

"Let's find some higher ground". Rick stated quickly as he let Katharine walk in front of him. The group had only been walking for a few seconds when a gunshot echoed around the forest and Horus's gave a loud squawk.

"Horus"! Ardeth yelled out desperately as he ran a few steps away from the group who had turned around at the noise. After a few minutes of no response sadness and anger surrounded Ardeth's face before he quickly covered it up.

"I must go". Ardeth stated as he turned back around to the group.

"Wait"! Rick quickly said as he walked over to the calmly collected man.

"I must let the commanders know where we are". Ardeth continued like he hadn't heard the desperate.

"You can't go". Both Rick and Evy stated as they stood in front of the man.

"If the Army of Anubis arises..."

"We need your help to find our son, Ardeth, please"? Ardeth paused when he heard the plea from the front of the group and looked at Katharine. The calm and determined woman that he had met 8 years ago was no there at the moment. Instead a desperate and worried mother stood in front of him as she pleaded for his help.

"Then first, I shall help you". Ardeth replied to both O'Connell and his wife as he saw the same desperation in his eyes that he did her.

"Thank you". Rick stated as he clapped the man's shoulders before going back to his wife who mouthed the same thing to the Egyptian man with a small smile. Ardeth turned to start walking, seeing Evy standing there with a large smile on her face.

"What is it"? He asked her.

"This means a lot to her you know". Evy replied as she started to follow her sister, brother and brother in law quickly being followed by Ardeth.

~*Break*~

Night had fallen over Ahm Shere and Imhotep was currently walking through the forest in front of Anck-su-namun. Alex, unfortunately, had been lost in the sea of men and Imhotep had his mind preoccupied with other thing. There were two men in front of him waving around there torches with fear etched on their face making Imhotep roll his eyes in annoyance. As they walked through the area that was littered with cages made of bone and skulls, he felt Anck-su-namun tense behind him making him smirk. Tia would not have been frightened she would have been looking around in awe and fascination.

He was currently figuring out a plan to bring his wife back and make her his again. When he'd returned Tia's memory's to Katharine he'd experienced them with her .Imhotep had been horrified to find out that Tia had once again remarried a few years after his death to none other than Tia's best friend and the man he hated the most, Perseus. He hated the man as he saw the looks the man had thrown his wife (no matter how discreetly those looks were) when Imhotep and Tia were married.

And now he had another obstacle to avoid as not only had Tia been reincarnated in Katharine and Nefertiri in her sister Evy but also Perseus in Katharine's husband, Rick O'Connell.

Further down the line Alex looked around the gruesome scene in terror. Any other time he would have been looking around fascinated but then again any other time he would have been with his Mum and Dad and it would have been daylight.

"Look. Roman legionnaires. And here. Turn-of-the-century French. Napoleon's troop". Hafez pointed out to the men as he saw the bodies and the armour they were wearing.

"What in the name of Anubis did this"? Lock-Nah gasped out before pulling out his sword, not willing to admit that he was shaking inside.

Alex nearly threw up when he saw the bodies that had been burnt to death. The group of men looked around as growling noises surrounded them.

~*Break*~

They had finally reached the tallest area that they had been able to find that looked straight down on the forest leading to the pyramid. Katharine was getting her rifle ready along with Evy as Jonathan looked around.

"You here that"? Rick asked both Ardeth and his wife, pausing from fixing up his gun.

"What"? Both asked him in reply, looking at him.

"Nothing. Absolutely Nothing". Rick answered making Katharine pause and listen around her. Besides the racket that Hafez and his men were making there was no sound. No birds, no gecko's or crickets. Not even a lion or two. Everything was silent, dead silent.

"I say, chaps, look at this. Shrunken heads. I'd love to know how they do that". Jonathan said excitedly as the group looked over at him with their brows raised.

"No, you really, really don't" Katharine told her brother as she smirked at him amused. She'd had to learn that when she had been studying and the very descriptive process had nearly made her throw up. Of course back then she had a weaker stomach than what she did now.

"Just curious". Jonathan replied as he started to pale at the disgusted look on Katie's face. If something had disgusted her, he wasn't sure he wanted to know anymore.

Ardeth walked over to Jonathan as he swung the Thompson over his head followed by Evy who was letting her sister and her husband have a moment to themselves. Jonathan had just picked up his rifle and was quickly checking it out.

"Any good with that"? Ardeth asked the man who seemed incompetent at the best of times.

"Three times Fox and Hound's champion, I'll have you know. You any good with that"? Jonathan asked as he nodded towards Ardeth's sword that was resting on his hip. Evy smiled at her big brother, anyone else would have thought that was Jonathan being smug but she knew better as she knew it was him worrying about his family, especially Alex.

"You'll know soon enough". Ardeth replied before quickly pulling out his sword and laying it at Jonathan's neck.

"Because the only way to kill and Anubis warrior, is by taking off its head". Ardeth finished threateningly as Evy shook her head at his theatrics'.

"I'll remember that". Jonathan gulped as he glanced at the sword at his neck. Ardeth gave a small smirk before lowering his sword. A few feet sway Rick walked over to Katharine, after he had finished loading his weapons, as she loaded her gun with her bullets.

"Katharine try to remember to ... Just keep it tight in the shoulder ..." Rick whispered to Katharine as he demonstrated with his shotgun "And lead the target a little bit, and then ... squeeze the trigger. Don't, don't pull it". Rick finished as he looked at his wife who gave him a small shaky smile.

"I know how to shoot a gun, Rick. I promise you, I won't miss". Katharine whispered back to her husband as she put her hand against his cheek. He leaned into the palm of her hand for a moment before surging forward and kissing her. Both put as much love and passion as they could into the kiss, both knowing very well it could be there last. Rick pulled away; slightly breathless as he leaned his forehead on his wife's before tearing away from her, knowing that if he didn't leave now he never would.

Katharine watched as her husband walked away from her with Ardeth in tow patting Evy and Jonathan on his way past before she turned back to look out at the forest watching the torches in the distance get closer and closer to the pyramid.

~*Break*~

The snarling and growling was getting louder around the group making all the men fidgety and to start turning around in circles looking for the source of the noise.

"Pyramid". Imhotep smiled as he caught sight of it around him the men started to gasp in awe at the sight while their lord continued to smile. He was one step closer to getting his wife back.

Alex gasped when he saw the golden pyramid from his visions in the distance surrounded by the night fog.

"Cripes, I'm in trouble now". Alex exclaimed as he looked around for Lock-Nah. The man had been threatening to kill him slowly and painfully the whole journey and now that they were so close to their destination he was afraid at what the large man would do to him.

"Now may I kill him"? Lock-Nah asked Hafez.

"My lord ... Now there is no need for the boy". Hafez said to his lord as Anck-su-namun looked to Imhotep to see what his reaction would be to the subtle hint to kill the boy.

"I told you Hafez the boy was not to be harmed in anyway. Besides we need the bracelet it will unlock the Army of Anubis". Imhotep growled out at the ignorant man as he strode away from the group, not noticing Anck-su-namun narrow her eyes at his figure.

"The bracelet. The bracelet is the key"?! Hafez gasped before turning to Lock-Nah "Retrieve that bracelet". Hafez ordered him, ignoring his lord's wish for the boy not to be harmed. The man would understand ... after all they had no need for the nuisance as long as they had the bracelet in their possession. Fortunately for him Imhotep was too far in front of him to have heard Hafez.

"With pleasure". Lock grinned as he walked away from Hafez in search of the boy.

Imhotep came to a stop in front of the group, a few minutes later, as he looked around. Hafez stopped his men as Anck-su-namun stood beside Imhotep.

"What is it"? She asked him as she looked around. Around them the winds a started to pick up, carrying an eerie squeal along with it.

"Something is coming". Hafez gasped out terrified.

~*Break*~

A little ways away from the group Ardeth and Rick were running to get closer to them as the wind picked up around them as well. They came across the field full of bones and skulls and pulled their guns out ready as hooting noises started to surround them.

~*Break*~

Lock-Nah pulled out his sword as he looked around for the source of the noise that was surrounding them

"Fan out! Eyes open! Guns up"! He called out ordering the terrified and whimpering men to move as he continued on with his original mission to find the boy and end him.

~*Break*~

Up on the cliff Jonathan, Evy and Katharine were aiming their weapons at the group of men below them when Katharine paused as she turned to her big brother.

"Jonathan"? Katharine called for his attention.

"Yes". Jonathan replied to let her know he was listening.

"That's my husband and my son down there. Make me proud". Katharine said as she turned to him with wide eyes.

"Today's that day, Katie". Jonathan nodded as Katharine knelt down on the ground for a better stance.

~*Break*~

"They cannot harm me". Imhotep smirked as he looked around before walking off, Anck-su-namun hot on his tail. Down near the end of the group Lock-Nah was reaching the end of the line and his patience.

"Where's the boy"? He yelled out at the men in annoyance as they shrugged at him. One of the men walked closer to a tree that seemed to have a body engraved into it. Fascinated he started to walk closer unknowing that around him his comrades were being pulled down to their deaths. He continued to walk closer until he was face to face with the small body.

Only for empty eye sockets to flash opened as the body snarled at him. The man barely got a scream out before the pygmy mummy jumped on top of him killing him instantly.

The pygmy's started to pull man down, the grass hiding their small bodies, making the men look around helplessly and in fear.

~*Break*~

Both Ardeth and Rick heard the gunshots start as they shared a look.

"Let's go"! Rick yelled as he ran deeper into the forest to find Alex.

~*Break*~

Anck-su-namun saw one of the men fall to their death with spikes sticking out of his back as he fell he had dropped the black book prompting Anck-su-namun to run in front of Imhotep and grabbed it. Imhotep used his powers to scare of the pygmy's that were surrounding him, unfortunately that meant protecting Anck-su-namun too. After he had scared the pygmy's off he glared at the woman before walking around her although Anck-su-namun stayed glued to his side.

~*Break*~

Alex watched in fear as the men exchanged fire with the pygmy's that he had yet to see, when he heard a voice that made his back stiffen and eyes widen.

"There you are"! Alex quickly located Lock-Nah with his eyes and hurriedly shook the man that was holding onto his shirt off.

"The time has come my little friend"! Lock-nah growled, grinning as he swung his sword in front of him getting rid of the vines and bushes in his path.

"Let go"! Alex yelled before finally shaking the man off and making a run for it.

~*Break*~

Rick and Ardeth ha finally reached the group and were shooting the men that were around them. Rick looked around frantically for his son as he shot the men and pygmies.

~*Break*~

Alex was backing away from the large man while trying to avoid the pygmy's and other men.

"DAD"! Alex yelled out helplessly not expecting to receive a reply.

"ALEX"!

~*Break*~

"ALEX"! Rick called out when he heard his son's desperate yell for him only to jump in fright when he heard two shot's and two screams from behind him. Rick quickly turned around to see two of the men lying dead on the forest floor before looking back up at the cliff to see his wife looking down at him. He sent her a small salute.

"DAD"! Rick heard and quickly whipped around before following the sound of Alex's voice. Rick ran as Katharine, Evy and Jonathan shot the men that were standing in his way.

~*Break*~

"Time to remove the bracelet, my good son". Lock-Nah snarled after he had backed Alex up into the tree. He quickly twirled his sword to give the final killing blow.

"DAD"! Alex yelled out in one last attempt.

"Alex"! Rick yelled in a mix of relief and fear as he swiped his son out of the way from the oncoming sword. Lock-Nah growled when his sword hit the tree, watching as O'Connell ran off with his son about to run after them before Ardeth intercept the man.

"Dad, behind you"! Alex yelled as he saw the pygmy running towards them as he was thrown over his dad's shoulder. Rick turned around and pulled out his shotgun.

"Whoa"! Rick exclaimed in surprise as he shot the pygmy about to shot the one swinging towards them only for another shot to go off and the pygmy to fall, dead. Looking back at the cliff he saw his wife watching them intently. Sending her a smile that he was sure she couldn't see, he started run away from the danger with their son safely in his arms.

~*Break*~

Katharine shot at anything that followed Rick as he ran away with Alex in his arms. She heard a shot from beside her and looked to where Jonathan had shot. It had seemed Jonathan had seen Ardeth about to be killed and had saved his life.

"Let's go". Katharine said as she stood up.

"Thank god for that". Jonathan breathed in relief as he moved to follow Katharine.

"Katie". Katharine heard from behind her and looked over to Evy who was staring at her meekly.

"What is it"? Katharine asked gaining Jonathan's attention as well. Both looked and walked over their little sister who bit her lips before opening her mouth.

"I'm going to go with Ardeth, to the commanders. Alex is safe now and I may never see Ardeth again and I want to spend as much time with him as possible and... "Evy was cut off by her sister wrapping her arms around her.

"You tell the desert man that if he doesn't bring you back safely and unharmed I will kill him". Katharine mumbled as she held her sister tightly.

"Thank you". Evy mumbled pulling back from her sister's embrace before hugging Jonathan.

"Go find him"! Katharine laughed lightly as she watched her sister pull away from Jonathan before smiling at them both and going to find the man she loved.

"Our little sister's all grown up. I feel so proud". Jonathan said as he wiped a fake tear from his eye.

"When are you going to follow her example"? Katharine asked as she blinked at her brother who looked at her with a mock offended look on his face.

"Why little sister I am very hurt, it hurts me right in here". Jonathan playfully gasped at his sister who laughed slightly before pulling him with her.

"Come on, idiot". Katharine said as she shook her head laughing slightly. Jonathan smiled from behind her as the two went to catch up with Rick. Katharine looked better then she had in days and Jonathan supposed that had a lot to do with the fact that Alex was now in his father's arms and away from Imhotep.

Katharine came to a halt and let go of Jonathan's hand as a wide smile spread across her face when she saw her husband and her son burst through the nearby bushes.

"Alex"! Katharine gasped as she wrapped her son in her arms, holding him very, very tightly.

"Mum"! Alex breathed as soon as he saw her. That Imhotep dude had been freaking him out with all that talk of his mother like they were old friends.

"Hey nice shooting, Tex". Rick complimented Jonathan from behind her. She really didn't care what they were talking about at the moment she had her son in her arms after nearly a week of think he could've been hurt or worse.

"What were those creepy little pygmy things"? Jonathan asked his brother -in-law as Rick looked around.

"Just the local natives". Rick answered trying not to scare Jonathan more than he already was.

"Hey where's Evy"? Rick asked as he looked around for the woman worriedly. He knew how much Katharine's family meant to her and knew if anything had happened to Evy she would never forgive herself.

"She's gone with Ardeth". Katharine said as her son let go of her letting her stand up to hug Rick.

"Are you sure"? Jonathan asked, making the two of them go back to the previous conversation.

"I'm sure. It was nothin'" Rick gasped for breath as he wrapped his arms around his wife as Alex started to pull on their shirts to get their attention.

"Come on, Mum! Come on! Come on, Dad"! Alex exclaimed as he looked at his parent's desperately. "We have to get to the pyramid. I have to get the bracelet off now"!

"Oh leave it on, Alex. Looks good on you". Jonathan joked making Rick and Katharine flash him a small smile.

"No, you guys! You don't understand! He told me the bracelet will kill me if I don't get inside the pyramid before the sun hits it! Today"! Alex yelled at his parents watching as their expressions changed from amused to scared.

"Oh my god"! Katharine gasped out in disbelief at yet another problem. The four of them turned quickly when they heard the pygmy's screeching from behind them.

"Time to go"! Rick yelled as he grabbed his son's hand and started to pull him along, Katharine hot on their heels.

"I thought you said it was nothing"! Jonathan screamed as he followed his sister and her husband. The group were running away from the pygmy's as lightning flashed around them, the pygmy's right behind him. Katharine looked over her shoulder to see that Jonathan wasn't there.

"Where's Jonathan"? Katharine yelled as she continued to run, scanning the woods around her for any sign of her brother as she went. They came to a ravine we're a huge tree stump had fallen across the cavern making the perfect bridge. Rick lifted both Alex and Katharine up onto it before getting up himself grabbing the dynamite out of his pocket at the same time.

"Wait for me"! Jonathan yelled out as he came through the bushes with the pygmy's right behind him.

"Hurry up, Jonathan"! Katharine yelled out to her brother who got up onto the stump and started to cross it. Jonathan turned to rick as he jumped off of the stump.

"What's that"? Jonathan gasped out at Katie's husband who was in the process of lighting the dynamite.

"Ah, nothin'. Just a little something in case of an emergency". Rick replied offhandedly to the man as he threw the dynamite at one of the pygmy's who caught it and started to run with it like a torch. A couple of seconds passed as the pygmy's reached the middle of the stump only for the dynamite to go off in its hands , blowing up the ridge and the pygmy's along with it.

Katharine gasped for breathe as she looked up at the sky only for her heart to stop when she saw the sun starting to rise.

"Rick. Grab Alex and run". Katharine gasped out knowing that if he waited for both her and Jonathan that they'd never make it. Rick looked towards where Katharine was looking before grabbing his son's arm.

"Let's go Alex". Rick shouted as he started to pull Alex along. Katharine watched as they disappeared through the shrub a few feet in front of her. Katharine continued to run following where her husband had parted the shrub in his haste as he and Alex had long disappeared from her sight.

Katharine watched helplessly as the sun streamed past her feet making its way faster towards the pyramid. Katharine looked up and sobbed out a gasp when she saw that the sun had already reached the pyramid.

"Oh god, Jonathan". Katharine sobbed out as she gazed at the sun stroked pyramid.

"Hey, hey. We don't know if they didn't make it, okay. Ricks very fast and Alex isn't so bad himself. Katie calm down". Jonathan soothed as he wrapped his sister in his arms. It seemed like the last week's events were finally catching up to her.

"But what if they didn't, Jon. What if they didn't"? Katharine asked as she started to calm down.

"We don't know that, Katie and we won't until we get to that pyramid". Jonathan said as he pulled away from the hug to see the tears had cleared up in Katharine's eyes leaving only a slight red tinge to them. Katharine gave her brother a thankful smile as the two ran towards the pyramid again. They reached the pathway leading up to the pyramid and saw Alex and Rick talking inside.

"They made it. Oh thank god"! Katharine gasped out as she watched her husband wrap his arms around Alex.

"Yes, great. Fabulous"! Jonathan gasped out in astonishment as he gazed at the beautiful golden pyramid. Both were so distracted by the sights in front of them that they didn't notice Imhotep starting to walk towards the pyramids entrance or Anck-su-namun who had walked away from him and stalked up to them.

Katharine gasped when she was turned around to face Anck-su-namun only to feel the sting of the large dagger in the woman's hands enter her chest.

From inside the temple Rick's head shot up hearing Katharine gasp in pain. He finally caught sight of her watching Anck-su-namun with wide eyes as Imhotep walked towards them an angry look on his face.

"NOOO"! Rick yelled as he got up and ran out of the pyramid towards his wife. Katharine stifled a scream as she felt Anck-su-namun being pulled away from her, pulling the blade out in the process.

Imhotep pulled Anck-su-namun away from the sight of his dying wife with tears in his eyes. He watched as Tia looked towards Perseus with a pained look on her face.

"Kat"! Rick yelled as he watched his wife fall to the ground.

"Katharine"! He gasped as he landed beside her. Imhotep growled when he saw Anck-su-namun wave mockingly at Tia's son (Who was not far behind his father) before shoving her into the pyramid in front of him. He would bring Tia back. He would!

Rick gasped as he cradled his wife in his arms who continued to stare at him with wide pain-filled eyes.

"Mum"! Alex yelled as he neared his mother who turned her head slightly to look at him and smile softly.

"Jonathan! Jonathan"! Rick yelled out to his brother-in-law who was only just getting himself up off of the ground where he had been thrown by Anck-su-namun. Jonathan ran over staring open mouthed when he saw the wound. This was not what their dad had meant when he told him to always look after his sisters.

"She's going to be alright. Isn't she dad"! Alex asked his father.

"She'll be fine". Rick tried to reassure Alex as well as himself as he held his would (he refused to say dying) wife in his arms.

"She's going to be all right". Alex said as he looked at his mother who had her hands lying on her chest area.

"Just get him ... take him. Take ... Mummy's fine". Rick ordered Jonathan who quickly pulled Alex into his arms and away from the pair.

"Where ... Kat..." Rick looked around helplessly before he moved his wife's hands off of her wound as Jonathan tried to reassure and comfort Alex. "Oh my ... god"! Katharine merely blinked at her husband as Alec disappeared from her sight.

"You're real strong. You're gonna make it. You're gonna make it. You're". Rick gasped out as he recovered her wound with her hand before looking at her face to see her smiling at him lightly as a tear slid down her cheek.

"What do I do? What do I do, Kat? What do I do"? Rick asked his wife, desperately. In times like these she always knew what to do.

"Take care of Alex". Katharine replied softly sounding resigned as Rick started to shake his head.

"No. Sweetheart, no". Rick shook his head at her as a tear slid down his face. She couldn't leave, she couldn't give up. Not now.

"I love you" Katharine breathed out as her eyes started to close. She need him to here that as the last thing that would come out of her mouth. She just hoped that he wouldn't blame himself.

"No, don't ... No". Rick started to sob as Katharine's eyes closed and her chest stopped moving. "No"!

"Kat? Katharine"? Rick sobbed out as he started to shake his wife softly while behind him Jonathan pulled Alex into a hug as Alex started to cry, Jonathan just barely holding back his tears as he wondered how he was going to tell Evy.

"No. No. Katharine"! Rick cried as his heart broke pulling his wife to him.

"Come back, Kat. Katharine, please, comes back. Come back" Rick begged his wife before letting his head drop down onto her chest and crying, mourning the woman he had loved since he was a teenager.

The little family stood there, broken, as they cried for the woman they all loved.

AN: Okay so this chapter quite literally broke my heart, what did you think. Please leave a review and tell me.
