ROOM- NIGHT

My eyes fluttered open as I noticed the pressure on my mouth. I opened my eyes to see Imhotep's mouth on mine. My eyes widened as I screamed. I tried to push him away but he wouldn't budge. I heard someone burst into the room and scream bloody murder. Evelyn. I shoved at him as I saw Rick and Jonathan burst in.

I saw Rick glare at Imhotep as he yelled, "Get your ugly face off my girl!"

Imhotep pulled away from me. I pushed myself to the other side of the bed and wiped my mouth off. He spoke in Egyptian much to quickly for me to understand.

Suddenly Rick smirked,
"Look what I've got."

He held up the cat from this morning up and Imhotep screeched then turned into a sandstorm as he flew out of my window. I wiped my mouth and spit on the floor. I looked up to see Rick watching me in concern,
"You alright?"

I opened my mouth to answer but I was cut off by Jonathan,
"I'm not sure."

I frowned at him before wiping my hand across my mouth,
"That was disgusting."

He smiled and shook his head as I got out of my bed,
I"We need to get to the museum, I've got an idea."

We all ran down to Jonathan's car and all of us hurriedly piled in. I sat in between Rick and Jonathan as we drove towards the museum. When we arrived Rick hopped out and offered me a hand. I softly smiled as I grasped his hand and carefully stepped out of the car. I nodded at him before I quickly grabbed Evelyn's hand and pulled her into the museum with me as the boys rushed to keep up. We hurried through the hall ways before we ran in to Ardeth and the Curator.

"Follow me." I breathily said as I fast walked towards the stairs. I cleared my throat,
"According to legend, the black book found by the Americans can bring people back from the dead."

Evelyn gave me a look,
"Until now I did not believe it."

I rolled my eyes as Rick said,
"Believe it. That's what brought our buddy back from the dead."

I reached the top of the stairs as I said,
"Yes, and I believe that if the black book can bring people back to life, then the-"

Rick cut me off,
"Then maybe the gold book can kill him."

I nodded my head,
"That's them myth, now we just have to figure out where the book is located."

I stopped in my tracks as I heard chanting from outside. We all looked out of the window to see a humongous crowd was moving towards the museum, with Imhotep in the middle of them all. Evie gasped as I frowned, great.

Jonathan sighed,
"Last but not least... Sores and boils, my favorite."

"They are his slaves, the beginning of the end." Ardeth said with a sigh.

I looked at the crowd once more before I walked over to the tablet,
"Not on my watch, we've still got time."

Evie, the curator, and I all began to translate it before Evie said,
"According to Bembridge scholars the golden book of Amun-Ra is located in the statue of Anubis."
