Chpater Eight- Chases, Captures and Plane Rides, oh my!
Naboo and Bollo were still watching the film, angry and upset on how Howard and Vince were being hurt, mentally and physically. They were quite pleased they got together, it was about bloody time actually, they took long enough.
"Can we not just eject them out?" Bollo asked.
"No, if we take the film out with them in it, they could be trapped inside forever. We just have to wait until they make it to the end of the film" Naboo asnwered, in dispair he couldn't help his friends.

Jonathan drove his car into the driveway of the museum, as down in the bazaar a green mist drifts through. People start choking, before turning itno zombies for Imhotep. Imhotep strolls through the sickened mob, his face half rotted off, his deformed mouth grinning happily. Beni is at his side, looking very nervous. And then, one-by-one, the people silently begin to follow Imhotep, their skin now covered in disgustingly hideous boils and sores.
Inside the museum, O'Connell is walking up the stairs with Evy, the curator with Ardeth, Jonathan with Daniels and Vince with Howard.Evy was thinking up a plan to help her friends.
"Last month I came across an inscription that mentioned The Book Of The Dead. Yes I dismissed it, because it talked about bringing people back from the dead. A notion I was unwilling to believe" She explained.
"Believe it, sister. That's what brought our buddy back to life" O'Connell answered back.
"I'm thinking that if the black Book Of The Dead can bring people back to life -" Evy kept explaining.
"-Then the gold book will destory him" Vince spoke up behind, hopeful.
"That's the myth" Evy finished, deminishing the goth's hope. Then loud chanting is heard coming from outside. They all rush over to the upper windows and look dow to see a large, crazed mob covered in hideous boils and sores, chanting up the driveway 'Imhotep, Imhotep!' The mummy was in the middle of the crowd, directing them towards the museum. He looked up and clearly saw the paniced Vince and smirked, the goth jumped back when he looked at Imhotep.
"Vince, what's wrong?" Howard asked, placing a hand on his lover's shoulder.
"He saw me, Howard. He knows I'm here, he's coming for me" Vince replied, his voice breaking with unshed tears and fear. Howard held him close as his anger towards Imhotep grew. He had never seen Vince so scared in his life, not even when that llama got out at the zoo because Vince had never seen a llama before, said they didn't have them in the forest he grew up in.
The crazed mob crashes into the huge front doors, which are locked. They pound furiously, throwing themselves at it while chanting constantly, as Imhotep solemnly comes up the driveway. The banging on the doors can be heard as Evy and the Curator quickly sort through broken pieces of stone tablets. The others watch as Evy pulls out a large piece. The banging gets louder and multiple windows are shattered as Evy talks while quickly translating the tablet.
"Since the black Book of The Dead was found inside the statue of Anubis, then according to this, the golden Book of The Living should be inside..." She started.
"Where?" All the others yelled at her, making her smile when she finished translating "The golden Book Of The Living, is inside the statue of Horus"
"We have to back out there?" Vince's paniced-striken voice could be heard. They saw his pale complexion pale even more, tears of frustration welling in his eyes. They all felt sorry for him as Howard gathered him closer in their embrace, kissing his forehead and telling him it'll be fine.
"If we want to stop him and save you, then yes Vince" Evy said, gently. The goth sniffed a few more times then agreed, they had to or he and Howard would never get out of the film. Then two hideous boil and sore covered men charge out of a doorway, making Vince scream and Howard drag him away. O'Connell and Ardeth Ray grab them and chuck them over the railing and the men fly through the air and crash into the lower display cases. The front doors suddenly brust open and the crazed mob pours into the museum, making everyone run across the balcony and down the staircase.

Jonathan sneaks out of some bushes and quickly heads for his convertible. Suddenly, a splinter group of the diseased mob comes around the side of the museum. Jonathan instantly bugs his eyes out, starts drooling, and begins chanting with them. The crazed group runs past him and heads into the front doors of the museum. Jonathan leaps into the convertible, fires it up and 180's it back over to the bushes. O'Connell, Evelyn, Daniels, Ardeth, the Curator and the boosh boys jump inside the car. Beni steps out of the museum and sees them.
"Imhotep, Imhotep!" He yells, making his master upstairs look out at his prize escaping. He lets out a horrific screech, sending chills down everyone's spines. Howard pressed Vince next to him when they sat down, holding his hand over his lover's head and keeping it down, making sure he never saw anything as the car started rushing down the bazaar, with the zombied mob running after them.
The convertible goes fast down the narrow bazaar street. Crazies start jumping out of stalls and leaping onto the car. O'Connell and the others fight them off, throwing them overboard and Howard tries to bat them off Vince as best as he could while holding his lover's head down. He could hear the frightening whimpers coming from the smaller man and he felt his heart breaking at each sound. This spurred him on at keeping Vince safe. The others whacked some of the mob through some stalls, knocking them off, but not before they manage to open the back door and pull Daniels out.
He tumbles across the pavement and gets up shooting. He backs into a corner, firing his pistol into the hideous rabble, killing several, keeping them at bay. His gun goes empty, but the mob stays back, looking at him like rabid vultures. Daniels eyes them, filled with fear as the mob parts like the red sea as Imhotep walks through them and up to Daniels. Then he gets an idea, reaches into his pocket, and pulls out his jewel encrusted sacred canopic jar. He holds it out for Imhotep, whos it and grins. Through his tears, Daniels grins back, hopeful that he'll be spared. Instead, he yells out a blood curdling scream.
Then suddenly Jonathan loses control of the car and slams into a wall. O'Connell grabs Evelyn and Howard keeps his strong grip on Vince as they all leap out of the car, but the angry, festering mob quickly surrounds them. The crazed, chanting mob parts and then Imhotep steps through, now fully regenerated. He looks as young and handsome and muscular as he did the day he was buried alive. Evy stares at him in shock and Vince stares at him in fear.
Imhotep walks upto Vince and starts speaking in anichant Eygptian, with Beni translating "Take his hand and he will spare the others"
The goth looked up to see his lover's face, a bit worried when he saw how angry Howard looked. He looked around and saw the way O'Connell and Jonathan were protecting Evy and saw the bloody thristy look in the mob's eyes, and knew what he had to do. He pushed himself away from Howard and nearly took hold of Imhotep's out-streched hand, but his lover stopped him by grabbing his arm.
"No, Vince. Don't" Vince winced when he heard the hurt and worry in Howard's voice "I have to, otherwise he'll kill the others, and more importantly you. If he killed you when I could do something to stop it, I'd never forgive myself" He pressed a kiss to Howard's mouth and grabbed Imhotep's hand, who pulled him close. Howard went forwards to get his lover, but was held back by Ardeth "These is still time to save him, Imhotep has to perform the ceremony yet"
"And the other woman will come with me, to help. If not, I will still harm your friends" Beni continued translating. Evy gave the others a look and walked over to Imhotep and Vince, putting her hand on the goth's shoulder to help calm him down. Imhotep then turns around taking the others with him, Beni went over to Jonathan and grabbed the key from his jacket pocket, before scampering back to his master.
"Kill them" Beni yells translating, making Vince and Evy scrable back towards their friends, but the mob closed up around them. The rabid vultures were moving in for the kill. O'Connell quickly bends down, pulls open a manhole cover and shoves Jonathan and Howard down inside it, then jumps in after him. The Curator pushes Ardeth towards the hole.
"Go! Find a way! Kill the creature!" The curator yelled, drawing out his sword and striking down people from the mob, giving the others a chance to escape. But soon the mob was upon him, and his last sounds were him yelling in pain.

Jonathan's bashed-in convertible steams it's way up to a set of semi-abandoned Quonset huts. A single WWI biplane with R.A.F. insignias sits in the sand beside them. These is a sign reading: His Majesty's Royal Air Corp. O'Connell, Jonathan, Howard and Ardeth stand before Winston Havlock.
"So what's your little problem got to do with His Majesty's Royal Air Corp?" The old pilot asked.
"Not a damn thing" O'Connell answered.
"Is it dangerous?" Winston asked, curious.
"Well, everyone else we've bumped into has died, why not you?" Jonathan asked, not notising the worried look on Howard's face as he thought of his lover in danger.
"So what's the challenge then?" Winston asked again.
"To save the damsels in distress, kill the bad guy and steal his treasure" O'Connell answered, making the old pilot smile.
Way off across the desert, a large sand-whirlwind races over the dunes. It comes to a stop and starts to dissipate. Evy, Vince and Beni are suddenly ejected out of it and they land in a dune, a few miles away from Hamunaptra. The sand then forms into Imhotep, looking up into the sky, listening carefully. Then they hear a plane in the sky and look up.
"Howard" Vince called out happily. Imhotep then unhinges his jaw, making his mouth open to an inhuman size. He lets fly with another one of his horrible shrieks and a massive wall of sand rises up out of the desert.
The wind whips at Winston in the cockpit. O'Connell sits in the gunner's compartment, with Jonathan is strapped spread-eagle across the left wing, Ardeth Ray is tied tight to the right and Howard tied in the middle of the wings. O'Connell watches the desert below him come alive and rise up towards the plane. Winston looks over the side and sees what's coming and laughs, throws the throttle, and puts the plane into a dive.
O'Connell looks back into the blinding sand and sees a giant face forming inside the sandstorm, until it's Imhotep grinning. O'Connell grabs the Lewis machine-gun, cocks the bracket and fires blasting away at Imhotep's giant face inside the sandstorm. Imhotep's face begins to laugh, then his jaw unhinges, his mouth opens wide and he engulfs the plane. Winston blindly fights for control, elated. The biplane spins inside the blowing sand. Jonathan, Howard and Ardeth are screaming with Winston laughing.
Vince knew something had to be done, and he notised Imhotep had to concentrate very hard to control the sand wall. 'Howard better be grateful for this' The goth thought, as he grabbed Imhotep's face and kissed him hard, startling the mummy out of his trance. The wall disappeared and Vince and Evy jumped for joy, only to see the plane crash into the dunes in the distance.
Vince felt his tears fall freely down his face as he thought how badly injured his lover could be. He tried to walk towards them, but Imhotep grabbed his arm hard and dragged him towards the ruins, with Beni bringing Evy behind them.
--
The biplane smashes over a dune, rolls over and crashes upside- down into another dune. The sand swirls as O'Connell falls out of the gunner's compartment. The left wing is jammed into the dune, Jonathan hangs upside down and Howard is lying on his back a few feet away.
"Excuse me... A little help would be useful... IF IT'S NOT TOO MUCH TROUBLE!!" Jonathan yelled.
O'Connell goes to help Jonathan and Howard, as Ardeth stumbles over to the gunner's compartment and tears the Lewis gun off it's mount. He throws the machine-gun over one shoulder, a cartridge belt over the other and staggers away and stands next to Howard. O'Connell and Jonathan look into the cockpit to see Winston Havlock is dead, a smile on his face. The plane suddenly starts to move, the sand sinks under their feet and they quickly high-tail-it away. O'Connell, Jonathan, Howard and Ardeth make it to some rocks and look back. The biplane, with Winston inside, slides away over a dune. O'Connell gives it a salute as the plane vanishes over the dune and into the sands.
