While walking in the underground tomb underneath the Sphinx, Shadow and his earthling friends are still wearing the face covering veil since this underground tomb smells rotten and ancient.

"Big-Ass-Rat, man. I know you like rats but this is no time for lunch break, Hex" Nebula said, ignoring the rats squeaking.

"Yes but they look delicious" Hex said, flickering her tongue under the veil but no use to smell through it.

"Forget the rat. We got an emerald to get" Shadow scoffs. They were unaware danger was inside the tunnels.

"Man, I hate tombs. Filled with disgusting rats and spiders, and corpses" Nebula shivered.

"Well at least there are no human corpses here in the Sphinx" Hex said.

"Or is it?" Nebula asked.

"How are mummies different to corpses?" Shadow asked.

"You don't wanna know but I'll just say it. Mummies are wrapped in bandages and their vital organs are removed" Nebula said.

"Incredible" Shadow said.

"But they keep the heart in the body. The eyes are replaced with jewels or stones, the brain are shredded apart too" Nebula added.

"Okay. On my planet out corpses becomes like dust" Shadow said with a slightly greenish muzzle, hinting disgust.

Above them, some slimy saliva drops on the floor, they looked up to see the Latro creature, the scorpion/spider like alien monster. It growls at them and jumps down, swinging its long tail with a venomous stinger full of poison.

"SSSSGRRRAAAH!!!!"

"Oh, boy. I don't think he's friendly" Hex backs away slowly.

"SCREEEEEEEEEEEERCH!!!" the Latro leaps at them and grabs Shadow and Nebula by the claws, but Nebula uses her blasts to get off it and gets into position to fight the beast.

"Is this one of your brother's alien friends?" Nebula asked Shadow.

"Yes. We call this the Latro!" Shadow yelled. Then the Latro attempts to sting Nebula but she dodges it. Shadow's red streaks glowed and he breaks free from the claws to fight it. He then uses his chaos rage to beat the Latro. But the alien monster uses its web to glue Shadow on the wall.

"Shadow!" Nebula gasped, "THAT'S IT!!! I'M GONNA SQUASH YOU LIKE A BUG YOU MONSTER!!!" her eyes glowed purple.

The Latro turns to her and uses its web to glue her feet to the floor but missed when Nebula flies over.

"ARRRGGHHH!!!!!" she fires a purple energy beam at the Latro's tail stinger.

The stinger exploded and its poison splatters everywhere. The Latro growls angrily at Nebula and pounced on her with its eight lets, about to bite her head off. That until Hex appeared and throws a pink blast at it.

Shadow was able to get out of the sticky web glue with his chaos blasts from his hands, "Hey, Latro!" he got the alien monster's attention, "Sting on this!" he threw his chaos spears at it.

It hits the forehead of the monster and it began slam it's stinger-less tail around and charges at Shadow. But Shadow ran to make a black tornado to do a killing move on it.

"EAT THIS!" Shadow picked up a steel rod and threw it in the Latro's mouth. It penetrated the alien monster's head and it collapsed on the ground.

"Is it dead?" Nebula asked.

"I hope it is. That stinger is very poisonous than my venom from my fangs" Hex said.

"Yep, let's find the emerald" Shadow said. They then checked every chamber in the tomb and there were many crates and even dead rats lying with the spider-webs, then they saw something shining from the Sobek statue's mouth.

"Is that what I think it is?" Hex said.

"Yup, the yellow Chaos Emerald" Nebula said, "But first we need to look around just to be sure there are no booby traps. You know what happens when we grab the artifact it can trigger a trap" she said.

"Alright, but it's just a Chaos Emerald" Shadow said. They looked around but found no button or lever there.

"Hmph, nothing. I'll just take it" Shadow picked the chaos emerald and it seemed nothing happened except...

"Wait a minute. It sounds like water" Shadow's ear twitches. From the walls water ran through and it burst open filling the chamber with water.

"You said there's no lever here!" Hex said as the water began rising to her waist.

"Check again before these things eats us!" Shadow points at the heads poking from the water, crocodiles!

"Ahhh!!! Nile Crocodiles! Not good!" Hex shrieked.

"We gotta find something to get us out of here before we all drown!" Nebula said.

"But we gotta defeat the crocodiles first and fast!" Hex said.

Shadow grabs one of the crocs and threw it to the walls and kicks another one. He threw one to Nebula who knocks it out. Hex was swiping with her tail and kicks them and used her bad luck powers.

"Careful, Shadow! These crocodiles have a very strong bite! So watch out!" Nebula warned Shadow while snapping the crocodile's jaws with her strength. Hearing the jaw bones crunch.

"Okay, hope they won't death-roll me!" Shadow punched the crocodile that bit his hover shoes.

"We're running out of time, guys! I'll hold them off while you two find something in the water to get us out!" Hex said, shooting her bad luck jinxes at the crocodiles.

"We're on it, Hex!" Nebula said, takes a deep breath and swims down in the water. Shadow did the same too and follows her underwater.

They looked around until Nebula saw something on the wall, a hidden switch. She swims back up to tell Hex that she found a way to get out.

"I got it!" Nebula poked her head from the water.

"Okay, coming!" Hex dives down and dodged the crocodiles that were snapping after them. Nebula presses the switch and an opening causes them all to get thrown out like a waterslide.

Once they come out, the crocodiles fell out as well and they still tried to bite them, but they were much quicker and they ran away from the crocodiles.

"Phew, let's get back your place" Shadow said, walking with Hex and Nebula.

"Yes and we need to get ourselves dry" Nebula said. They headed to the daylight in the Nile River on their way home.

At Hex's house, Blaze was looking from the view on the balcony and wondered when they'll be back.

"I better hope they got the chaos emerald here. The next one must be at Italy I bet" Blaze said to herself.

"Don't worry, Blaze. They will. And I just hope that Knuckles can stop listening to the song from Monster High Boo York movie. He's been playing that song like 20 times" Silver said, feeling annoyed.

Knuckles was listening to the song 'Empire' by Nefera and Ramses De Nile from the movie Monster High Boo York Boo York.

He was humming to the song and tapped his feet. Tails came in and he was also annoyed.

"Knuckles stop playing that song. Stop it!" Tails tries to make him turn it off. But Knuckles didn't listen and this forces Tails to turn it off himself.

"Hey, I like that song!" Knuckles snapped and got up.

"You listened to it twenty times now, man!" Tails said, "And don't touch Hex's iPhone music player thingy"

"Fine! But now the guys should be back in any minute" Knuckles said. As he said that, Hex along with Nebula and Shadow came in with the yellow Chaos Emerald.

"Ah, good job guys. You got the yellow Chaos Emerald!" Tails smiled at this.

"Yeah, it's a long story but we got it right now" Shadow said.

"The next one, the green one is in Italy" Tails said.
