The Mummy | (Rick X Reader)

Chapter Seventeen

"I'll get you a coat, I'm glad your safe." I smile and grab mine, I politely give it to her and she puts it on silently. "Museum, right now, we don't have much time." 

I rush out the room and find the nearest car, Jonathan drives as I sit next to O'Connell. We arrive in a haste, stopping the car sharply in front. We all get out and start walking up the museum stairs.

"This book brought him here, maybe we can use it to banish him back. If not, then I think a weapon could be in the book as well." He hums and agrees with me, making me realize my statement. "It's not the black book, it's the gold.....Amun-ra, if black indicates death or darkness then the gold must--" O'Connell continues.

"Indicate light and living." I laugh.

"If we're correct then I think we might've found our answer." We both stop and look at once another, until we hear chanting from outside, we all move to the nearest window seeing a whole army of people chanting Imhotep. "The last plague..."

"Ah, yes. My least favorite, boils and scars...." we watch as they pile in, making the museum owner speak up.

"Slaves. Beginning of the end, it's starting." I look over to him.

"Not yet it hasn't, now come on." I say to them, leading them away. "Eve translate the stone." She nods and starts reading aloud.

"Black book was inside Anubis, it was switched." I turn around shocked. "Then the gold gold must be inside..-" The army breaks in, I look over the rail with O'Connell seeing them pile in. "Patience is virtue..." She states as she reads on.

"Not right now it isn't." O'Connell sarcastically says.

"It all makes sense." I turn to O'Connell, "Opposite of black is gold, meaning the opposite of Anubis is...." Eve and I state at the same time.

"Horus!" I lock eyes with her and nod, knowing we got our answer. "Jonathan...the car..." Evelyn says.

"He'll leave without us, we have to go now." O'Connell grabs my hand as we run down the stairs, quickly dodging the massive crowd for now. Jonathan drives the car up, making it easier for us to get in. O'Connell helps me get in the front, standing up, leaving little space between us.

"Imhotep! Imhotep!" I hear yells I turn my head seeing the same guy Beni screaming his name, I watch Imhotep go to the window watching us.

"Your gonna get yours Beni! You are gonna get yours!" O'Connell screams at him, pointing a finger. I make room and shove him down with the collar of his shirt to sit, hold on as Jonathan picks the speed up. We make it back to the little town, seeing the slaves stop in front, Jonathan slams the break as we see them. 

"We're screwed aren't we...." Evelyn says, silence fill the car as O'Connell slams on the break with his foot on top of Jonathans. 

"Hang on!" O'Connell yells as the people runs towards our moving car. The people climb on, I stand up a bit punching some off, O'Connell and the others help as Evelyn stays down. I feel my man grab my hair, I scream and head bump him, O'Connell lands a final punch as he rolls away.

We continue to fight until Hendersons friend falls out, I watch as we drive making me feel pity. I stare as we drive away, now hitting me that they're all gone. Jonathan loses control of the car, we crash into a hydrant and water supply, I bump hard into my seat. Everyone jumps out while O'Connell grabs me, lifting me off my feet onto the pavement, his hands go towards my head, checking. He stops and grabs my hand again, making me run with him. We get surrounded, O'Connell pushes me back as he grabs a torch on fire, swinging it around. 

The group chants Imhotep, as they part apart, making room for him to strut out. Beni is right behind, they both stop. Imhotep speaks, making Beni translate slowly after.

"Come with me my princess, it is time to make you mine, forever." He states, I furrow my brows and scoff.

"For all eternity, idiot." I tilt my head annoyed. I raise my brows at him, until Imhotep speaks again.
