Cairo, Egypt
The Cultists managed to get a train and are traveling towards Karnak as many Cultists were on top of the cabooses all armed.
Hafez: when Lord Imhotep last encountered the O'Connells, then sent his immortal soul to the Underworld. As powerful as he will become, he is still vulnerable. Only with the Army of Anubis will he be invincible. <snaps his fingers> he will need your help. <the Book of the Dead gets given to him as he spoke in Ancient Egyptian before speaking normally> keep this with you always.
Lock-Nah and Donovan entered as Lock-Nah carried a struggling Alex.
Alex: hey! The Book of the Dead! <gets set down>
Meela: what a bright little child. <kneels next to him> your mother must be missing you terribly. If you wish to see her again, you'd better behave.
Alex: Lady, I don't behave for my parents, what makes you think I'm going to do it for you?
Lock-Nah: silence!
Meela: <cups his jaw> because your parents wouldn't slip poisonous snakes into your bed <pecks his cheek> while you were sleeping.
Donovan: kid, don't test her, she looks like the type to do that.
Hafez: Lord Imhotep wishes to meet the boy.
Lock-Nah; now we shall see how brave you are.
Lock-Nah pushed Alex towards the next cart.
Alex; hey! Watch the suit! Hey!
From the door they just came in, the three thieves entered.
Spivey: me fingers!
Red: nice. Very nice.
Hafez: did you acquire what we asked?
Red; oh, we acquired it, all right. You know what? We had to kill two of those guards at the mausoleum to acquire it.
Clemons: this chest is cursed.
Clemons uncovered the chest and it was the same one the North Americans opened seven years ago.
Clemons: it says there is one, the undead, who will kill all those who open this chest.
Hafez: yes, yes, and the creature will suck them dry, then become whole again. We've all heard this story before.
Red; yeah, but I heard the yanks who found it nine years ago all died. Horrible deaths, they were. So with that in mind..
(I made an oopsie on the earlier chapters so I fixed it. Thank you Red)
Spivey; we went ten. <puts his foot in the chest>
Clemons: <hits his leg off the chest and speaks in Ancient Egyptian> this chest must never be opened.
Hafez: the agreement was for five.
Red: yeah, well, we want ten, or we'll take it elsewhere.
Donovan; come on, Mr Hafez, with what you're planning ten is small price to pay.
Meela; he's right. Ten will be just fine. Follow me, gentlemen.
Lock-Nah pushed Alex inside the cart filled with Egyptian artifacts.
Lock-Nah; get in.
Lock-Nah kneeled as Imhotep was in a black robe and wore the same mask when he killed Mr Henderson. He turned to Alex and approached him.
Imhotep: <Ancient Egyptian> I know you can understand me little one. So you must listen carefully because...
To everyone else, Imhotep was speaking in Ancient Egyptian but to Alex he was speaking English. A benefit of the bracelet.
