DISCLAMERS: I still only own a few things, if you haven't gotten that fact by now then deal with it.

Like the previous chapters I edited it a bit so it may be slightly different. I know you can't review twice but I will have the next chapter up soon so you can review that.

And I don't know if I ever gave a description of Nerissa so…

Chapter Two: That Stupid Thing?

Nerissa was sitting on a throne like chair watching Jonathon try to climb into a tomb with a raised eyebrow.

"Johnny? What are you doing? You realize a dead…person is in that thing?" She asked her friend as he nearly fell on his face. It was obvious he was hung over.

"Well Rissy I plan on-ohh. Scaring Evy. And by doing so I must get in here." He slurred as he fell into the casket landing on a mummy. She stifled a laugh as he groaned in pain.

"Well you know I don't think the mummy there would like to have your rancid breath in its face. It's so bad today it could wake the dead! Well not really wake it…but ah who cares? So how long do you think it will take Evy to show up?" she asked as Jonathan sat up arm around the mummy.

"Not a clue. Why don't you hide? It'll be like old times!" he said with a childish grin.

"Oh you mean like the time you left me in some tomb like that one? Three hours in that damn thing Jonathan! THREE HOURS! I screamed for THREE HOURS! Finally my father found me and opened the damn thing! So…NO I WILL NOT HIDE." She growled at him he simply shrugged and lay down with the mummy.

"Fine I'll hide up on that pillar ledge thing…" she said as she began to climb up the pillar.

"No, no! Come in here with me! It'll make it even better!" he paused before thinking about what he said. "Wait…not like that please don't, kill me!" She sighed as she climbed down and hopped in shoving the mummy on Jonathan.

Just then Jonathan began to moan really loudly making Nerissa stare at him.

"Jon? What are you doing? Please tell me you aren't shagging that damn mummy!" she questioned as she looked at her friend.

"No I am trying to get Evy's attention!" he whispered harshly. Nerissa just nodded as she heard Evy's heels clicking as she walked in. She didn't hear Evy talking but she heard her walk closer. Just then Jonathan tapped her arm signaling that it was time to jump out. Both flew forward causing the mummy's torso to spring out of the tomb making Evy scream.

"OH DEAR LORD!" she grabbed her chest in terror as she jumped back a few feet. Only to glare when she saw the two friends sit up laughing.

"You two are going to get me fired! Now get out of there!" Shouted Evelyn. Nerissa and Jonathan hopped out in laughter. Jon wrapped an arm around both girls.

"Oh come on Ev! It won't kill you…it's just a dead…mummy!" she said in an eerie voice. "When dead it stays dead!" laughed Nerissa. Evelyn just glared at her friend.

"Aww…don't be mad at me it was all Jon!" she said in mock desperation; which made Evelyn laugh a little.

"Here Evy; tell me I found something here! I won it in a poker game…" Jonathan said as he handed his sister a small hexagon. Nerissa stared at it with wonder and noticed it was her box.

"SHIT! GET THAT AWAY FROM ME!" she screamed jumping back a few feet making Evelyn gasp in shock.

"Good heavens! Nerissa are you alright? As to what you said Jonathan you have found something! We must show Dr. Bey! He'll know what to do with it!"

"OH! GOOD A MAP! I love maps!" Jonathan practically squealed. Nerissa bit her lip. If they had the map it would only end badly. She knew where it led to; hell it was technically her puzzle box slash map! She knew she should've burnt the damn map!

"So Dr. Bey what do you make of it?" questioned Evelyn as Dr. Bey looked at the map.

"It is authentic…but then again it could be for trickery or ones' entertainment. Many have died trying to find Hamunaptra." Nerissa bit her tongue to prevent her from throwing her two cents into the matter. But as she looked closer she noticed Dr. Bey held the map towards a candle and watched it burn with a small grin before gasping out in fake terror.

"YOU BURNT IT! BLOODY HELL A CORNOR IS BURNT OFF!" Jonathan wailed in displeasure and terror.

"Maybe that's a good thing? Who wants to go to the city of the Dead? I mean seriously it's not like you'll find Seti himself or anything…all there is; is a dumb statue of Anubis not much of a thrill if you ask me…" at this Nerissa noticed her mistake as all three people turned to look at her with wide eyes.

"How?" Was all Dr. Bey could get out Nerissa gave a sheepish laugh.

"I uh…heard the ancient lore?" she hoped they would buy it, though it seemed only Jonathan believed her. But Dr. Bey just shook it off and turned his attention back to Evelyn.

After Evelyn and Jon had talked about what to do next they decided to go to the man that Jon got the box from. Nerissa wasn't paying attention to what they were saying so when they pulled up to a prison she raised an eyebrow.

"What are we doing here Jon? Are you looking to find Evy a husband? 'Cause I don't recommend finding one here…" she said with a laugh Jon joined in as Evie glared at them.

"No the guy I swiped the box from is in here now. So we're going to find him and ask him about it." At this Nerissa raised her eyebrows and gave a small smile; to herself. After the warden led them to the 'man' Jon was talking about they led out a dirty looking prisoner she smirked as she saw Rick. And let out a laugh as he called Evy a broad and knocked Jon out.

"And whose this?" he asked looking up at her, only he could barely recognize her because she had her hair stuffed up in a hat much like Jonathan's. So she decided to have some fun.

"Me kind sir surly you recognize me? I am after all your wife! I save your arse from a belly dancer and such yet you forget all about me?" she wailed as she pulled off her hat throwing it to the ground; her blonde falling down to her shoulders. Rick's eyes went wide as the others just stared at her with wide eyes and open mouths. But Rick having a sense of humor went along with it.

"Why darling…I hardly recognized you! Don't you look lovely Ness! I missed you!" he said jokingly making Evy just look between the two.

"Oh Ricky darling we missed you so! Little Robert misses you so!" she laughed as Rick beamed.

"How is the little man? And how's Cora? I miss her too!" at this Evy turned around to glare at Nerissa.

"WHAT IS GOING ON HERE? You are married to this man? And you had children with him?" She screamed waving her arms around.

"Me? Married? Hell no Evy. We're just joking! He's my buddy ain't yah Rick?" Rick nodded and grinned. Evelyn just whispered an 'oh' and blushed.

"Rick this is Evelyn and you just knocked out ol' Johnny." She said hinting these were the ones she mentioned before. At this Rick looked down at Jon and muttered an 'oops'. Nerissa turned around to look for the warden to see if she could get him out of prison while Evy began asking him about the box. But as she turned around she saw Rick kiss her.

"Wow didn't see that one coming…yet." She said to herself as they began to drag him off. She heard the warden tell Evelyn he was going to be hanged.

"WAIT! HANGED? Oh god Evelyn we have to stop them from hanging Rick! He saved my ass multiple times! And he's my best American buddy!" she cried out tears brimming her eyes.

After Evelyn had managed to save Rick's life they had him promise to meet up with them. In the mean time Nerissa planned to stay with Rick until then. When she saw him walking out of the prison she ran over to him with tears in her eyes.

"DON'T EVER! EVER DO THAT TO ME AGAIN!" she screamed as she smacked his chest repeatedly before he grabbed her arms.

"Ness…stop I already nearly died today…" he said as an attempted joke. But Nerissa didn't find it the slightest bit humorous.

"Don't even O'Connell! I thought I was going to lose you!" After sharing the awkward friend hug they left to find a hotel for the night. Nerissa walked in and booked a room for the night and then told Rick to stay put.

"I have to find you some clothes…you can't expect to wear that shitty thing. I'll get you about four different outfits…that okay with you? The rest I can have sent to a hotel or something…it pays inheriting my parents' wealth I guess…now get a shower you look worse than that nasty warden." She said before she left the room to go to some shops.

After shopping for nearly two hours she decided to head back to the hotel. When she got back she noticed Rick was only in a towel and froze.

"Shit…uhh I got you some clothes? Damn what did you work out in Prison too?" Nerissa said staring at his chest. He smirked as he watched her remove the towel with her eyes.

"Alright there Ness?" Rick asked with a grin she just smacked him only to hit that muscular chest of his.

"Oh…crap." She whispered as she looked up at him. Was it just her or did it get hot in the room? She licked her lips quickly as she did so he brought a hand up to her cheek. She watched as he slowly moved towards her she out of instinct moved forward as well. They both stopped millimeters from the other.

"Rick…" she whispered before he kissed her. At first it was just a peck but then it turned passionate. Her hands moved up to his hair and latched on his damp locks. They both opened their eyes and stopped the kiss staring at the other before pulling away.

"That was awkward..." she whispered as she looked him in the eye again.

"Maybe because it was the first? We could try again?" he suggested she just nodded as he kissed her again. Only seconds later they pulled apart again.

"Any different?" he asked she just shook her head.

"No…like kissing a brother…sorry…" she said avoiding his gaze she noticed him staring at anything but her; before she burst into fits of laughter.

"Look at us! God what the hell is wrong with us! I was planning on setting you up with Evy and you were going to help me find an American Cowboy!" she yelled rolling her eyes.

"This never happened right?" he asked wincing slightly she nodded her head fervently.

"Alrighty…moving on now!" she said as she hurried to pack a small duffle bag with clothes and another with some guns and knives.

A few pistols, a shot gun and even some dynamite, making the duffle bag packed with the essentials only the best! Packing up the rest of her things was easy and took less than a minute, unlike Evy she didn't bother with foolish things such as folding. It took too much time!

When it was time to go to the docks Nerissa rolled her eyes at Rick who was pampering himself in front of them mirror like a teenage boy for his first date.

"Rick stop acting like a girl and let's go Evy will think you're Adonis himself…even though she likes Egypt mythology better than Greek…now get your fat ass out that door mister!" As she began to walk out the door; purposely smacking him in the gut with her bag.

"Gee thanks Ness I was hoping to get a bruise before we left. Thank you for practically reading my mind!" Rick growled in mock anger making Nerissa laugh.

"Let's go! You have to woo Evy with your devilish good looks! It'll make up for your shitty personality…you never did have a good personality Rick, So tragic really." Nerissa said with a laugh making Rick stick his tongue out at her.

At the docks she saw Evy and Jon waiting knowing Evy she was probably saying that Rick most likely wouldn't show and Nerissa would most likely be at a bar. Nerissa laughed at the comment and how in a matter of seconds Evy was a blushing school girl at the sight of Rick who thankfully cleaned up pretty good.

"And Evy darlin' I came prepared! Instead of wasting my time alone in some bar I brought my own drink! Look, see I brought Bourbon! Isn't amazing how prepared I am these days? I scare myself sometimes at my preparedness!" At her comment Evy rolled her eyes and walked up the plank only to be practically shoved out of the way by the fat smelly warden.

"Who invited the fat ass? If I knew he was coming I'd of brought perfume…by the truck load. Great I think I am going to be sick!" Nerissa growled in anger not even listening to the warden. Minding her own business she walked past her friends and bumped into a tall man.

"HOLY SHIT!" she screamed as she fell back only to be caught by strong arms. Looking up she saw a blonde man…an American Cowboy.

"You alright there miss? Sorry I wasn't looking where I was going…" The man had blue eyes; she was certain she was blushing like a school girl.

"Neither was I…it's, okay luckily you have quick reflexes or I'd be pretty sore about now…" she said with a smirk. At least she still had the ability to think properly.

"Jacob Henderson, you beautiful can call me Jake. And you are?" God she was falling in love with his voice she was ready to give him a dictionary to listen to him read it!

"Nerissa Wilson at your service. Wait no, I take that back I'm not a prostitute. But my name is Nerissa…ah fuck I'm babbling!" she said making him chuckle.

"I never thought you were a prostitute. You're too pretty, all the ones in this country are ugly old hags…not that I'd know. I…just oh look you got me babbling too now!" Henderson said with a laugh it made his blue eyes sparkle and that sent a shiver down Nerissa's spine.

This is a filler in a way. But I thought I should at least give you all something. I can't promise an update soon but I will see what I can do I am rather busy these days. I'm not a huge Mummy fan anymore...but for my loyal readers I shall continue!
