Evelyn had decided to stay in her room while her sister, Evan went for a walk. Evan calmly steps into a courtyard carrying a handful of books that she got for herself and her sister. A blast of thunder and lightning flashes making the dark haired girl jump, which caused her to drops half of the books she was carrying. Then a hand then grabs her, on instincts she drops the rest of the books and turns, throwing a punch hitting Rick. Rick let's her go and rubs his jaw where Evan had punched him.

"O'Connell, what are you still doing here?" Evan asked the brown haired man.

"We got problems." Rick said frantically completely forgetting that she punched him, then again it might have been revenge for calling her a contract or maybe for punching her brother.

Evan was about to say something but a barrage of hail and fire slams into the courtyard. Rick and Evan jump back, the brown haired male pulling the dark haired woman close to him. A water fountain bursts into steam. A wooden trellis catches fire. Rick and Evan run under the eaves as soldiers, servants and camels run in every direction, trying to avoid the maelstrom.

"He's here! I saw him! That thing is here!" Rick said panicking, Evan rolled her eyes and shrugged.

"Thanks for the information, when do you plan to leave? That way I can avoid you." Evan snapped at Rick making him glare at her.

"This is not the time!" Rick said panicking. Evan nodded slowly then a bloody curdling scream is heard coming from the living quarters directly above them. Rick and Evan race up the stairs.

Rick and Evan race into the room, past the servant who is running out screaming. They skid to a stop as they spot Burns, or what's left of him, lying dead on the floor, his body is shriveled to half it's size. Drained of all organs and liquids. Rick and Evan stare in shock. Then they hear a loud moan and notice the mummy standing on the far side of the room. Rick draws his gun, Evan took one of his other guns.

The mummy is regenerating, a thick skin forms over powerful new musculature. His tendons ripple. His bones bulge and reform. His mouth opens to an inhuman size as he moans and cries out, in severe pain. And then it's over. And he looks like an incredibly muscular, corpse-like vision from hell.

"We are in serious trouble." Rick said not looking away from the mummy.

"You think?" Evan asked sarcastically. The mummy started to walk towards them, looking directly at Evan.

"Hey! Back off, creep!" Evan yelled pointing the gun at the mummy. The mummy keeps coming. Rick and Evan open fire. Blasting the mummy, bullets rip through his body. The mummy doesn't seem to mind. Jonathan, Evelyn, Henderson and Daniels run into the room. They're all stunned at the sight of the mummy.

Rick steps forward, throws a right hook, punches The mummy in the face, his fist goes through the mummies skull and gets stuck deep inside his head. Rick stares at it, shocked, then quickly yanks his fist back out. The area of Imhotep's face that came into contact with Rick's fist quickly degenerates and decays, right down to the bone, as if Rick's hand instantly infected it.

The mummy angrily turns, grabs Rick, and with no effort, throws him across the room and into Jonathan and the others knocking them down. The mummy looks at his hand, the one that just grabbed Rick, it starts to shrivel and decay.

The mummy turns to Evan and walks closer to her, Evan holds up the gun that she took from Rick and shoots the mummy. The mummy angrily grabs the gun and throws it away from her. Evan looked shocked and kinda scared. Evan goes to throw a punch but the mummy grabs her fist.

"Abayomi, you saved me from the undead. For this, I shall make you immortal." The mummy said and went to kiss her, Evan moves her head to the side and sees Evelyn's cat. The white cat jumps on the piano and hisses. The mummy turns and his eyes land on Evelyn, "Anck-Su-Namun." He ignores the girl and suddenly the balcony doors blow open. The mummy spins into a blast of wind and sand and swirls out the doors, gone. Rick, Evelyn, Evan, Jonathan and Daniels stand transfixed. Henderson kneels next to Burns, shriveled body, horrified.
