The three men and lady set off in Jonathan's crashed car, how it was still running, we have no idea. Rick was driving and he drove on the large dunes of sand and soon arrived at a small area where a World War One Bi-plane is parked with a rather older-looking man in an outdated military uniform lounging in a chair under an umbrella with a gramophone playing beside him. There was also a sign near the plane reading His Majesty's Royal Air Corps.

The elder man was enjoying himself sipping a drink and humming along to the song as the group exited the car and walked toward him. The older man's name was Winston Havlock. "Ah! Hello!" he greeted when he finally noticed the group. He invited the group to sit. "Winston, I'm going to cut it short. We have a problem and we need your help" Rick said as he preferred to stand. Everyone stood except Jonathan who went and laid in the Hammock behind them. "Ah nice," He said and laid back. Evy watched her brother and shook her head before snapping back to the conversation at hand. "So what's your little problem got to do with His Majesty's Royal Air Corp?" the pilot asked O'Connell. "Not a god-damned thing," Rick said plainly. Winston looked intrigued. "Is it dangerous?" the two kept on, "You probably won't live through it" this really interested the retired pilot. "By Jove, do you really think so?" he said with joy. Wanting to feel that rush again. "So what's the challenge then?" Winston pressed and looked ready for it. "To save the damsel in distress, kill the bad guy and steal his treasure," rick said. Evelyn's jaw dropped slightly but Rick shushed her not wanting to ruin his chance at a way to rescue Rosie. A slow grin spreads across Winston's face, then he gives them a snappy salute. "Winston Havlock at your service, sir!"

"My sister is anything but a Damsel in distress," She said and watched as the men shook hands and they got the Bi-Plane ready.

THE SAHARA DESERT - DAY

Way off across the desert, a large sand-devil races over the dunes. The sandy whirlwind comes to a stop and starts to dissipate. Roslyn and Beni are suddenly ejected out of it, they land in a dune. The swirling sand condenses and forms into Imhotep. He looks up into the sky, listening carefully. Rosie tumbled out with Beni on her as they tried to find their footing "get off me, you slimy git!" She said and smacked him. Beni yelped and stumbled away from her and rubbed the areas she hit. She stood up and fixed her dress and shook the sand out of her hair. "Ugh...I hate sand" she muttered. Her thoughts were cut off by the sound of a plane above them. All three of them look up to see it was Winston's Bi-plane with Rick behind in the co-pilot seat, Evie sitting on his lap clinging to him and Jonathan and Ardeth strapped to the wings of the plane. Rosie smiled, they came back for her!.

Up in the air, the wind was whipping hard in their faces. Evie too scared to even look out where they were, she clung to rick and hid her face in his neck. Not that rick-minded of course. The other two were a different story. One was screaming like a baby and the other was smiling and cheering. Imhotep's jaw unhinges, his mouth opens to an inhuman size, and he lets fly with another one of his horrible shrieks. --Anda massive wall of sand rises up out of the desert. O'Connell watches the desert below him come alive and rise up towards the plane. Winston looks over the side and sees what's coming. He laughs, throws the throttle, and puts the plane into a dive. "Hang on, men and lady!" they were getting closer and closer, about to be engulfed by the sand. O'Connell looks back into the blinding sand and sees a giant face forming inside the sandstorm. Evie looked and screamed at the sight. It's Imhotep. Grinning. O'Connell grabs the Lewis machine-gun, cocks the bracket "here take it, I cant shoot, pull the trigger, and aim!" He instructed and Evie looked at the gun and took it "oh my god oh my god- ah! This is stupid it's just sand Rick!!" she screamed and started blasting away at Imhotep's giant face inside the sandstorm. Imhotep's face begins to laugh, then his jaw unhinges, his mouth opens wide, and he engulfs the plane. Winston blindly fights for control, elated.

"We're going down!" Winston yelled and everyone started to freak out and scream. The biplane spins inside the bowling sand. Engines roaring and emitting smoke. Wind howling. Jonathan, Evie, and Ardeth Bay screaming. Winston Havlock laughing his ass off. "Here I come, laddies!" he cheers. O'Connell braces himself for impact, holding onto Evie and trying to cover her from the crash.

Rosie runs over to Imhotep, pulling at his arm. "Stop it! You'll kill them!" she begged and smacked his arm, but he pushes her away hard causing her to fall to the ground. She glared at him and looked to see the plane with her friends and family on it screaming. She had no time to lose. She got up and put her hands on each cheek and pulled him close. Kissing him hard on the lips. Imhotep grabs her and pulls her close, her eyes widened as he kissed back making her squeak in surprise as he held her arms... Then he kisses her, hard. The kiss made Imhotep distracted and the plane is released from the sand. Rosie pulled away and cheered. They were safe! But then she noticed how bad of shape the plane was in. The biplane smashes over a dune, rolls over, and crashes. "Evie, Jonathan!" she yelled and went running to them but Imhotep held her back.

upside-down into another dune. The sand swirls as O'Connell falls out of the gunner's compartment with Evie, he makes sure she isn't hurt as they get out from the wreckage. The left wing is jammed into the dune, and Jonathan hangs upside down. "Excuse me...A little help would be useful...IF IT'S NOT TOO MUCH TROUBLE!!" Jonathan yelled. O'Connell goes to help Jonathan. Ardeth Bay stumbles over to the gunner's compartment and tears the Lewis gun off its mount. He throws the machine gun over one shoulder, a cartridge belt over the other, and staggers away. O'Connell and Jonathan look into the cockpit. Winston Havlock is dead. A smile on his face. The plane suddenly starts to move, the sand sinks under their feet, and they quickly high-tail-it away. O'Connell, Jonathan, Evie, and Ardeth Bay make it to some rocks and look back. The biplane, with Winston Havlock inside, slides away over a dune. O'Connell gives it a salute. The plane vanishes over the dune and into the swirling sand...........

HAMUNAPTRA - DAY

The 'rescue crew' come down a ravine in the volcano and look out over the ruins of Hamunaptra. "Okay, now what the hell does this Khonsu guy look like?" OConnell asked, He's a big fellow with a big headpiece like a moon disc on his head and has a face like a falcon" Jonathan explained. "Got it," he said and then looked to Evie, giving her one of his guns. "Keep your finger off the trigger when you walk and remember to squeeze when you shoot ok? Don't close your eyes too" he said and she nodded. "Ok...come on let's go find The Book of the Living!" she said with a determined glint in her eye. No matter what she was going to save her sister. Carrying torches, the four make their way down a long, winding, narrow staircase. Heading into the bowels of the necropolis. A passageway to hell.

Roselyn follows Imhotep into the underground cemetery. She stops at the sight of all the big hairy rats scurrying through the mausoleums and over the gravestones. Beni shoves his rifle into her back and pushes her forward. "Keep moving" Beni hissed. Rosie gives him a look. "You know, my sister used to tell me this, assholes like you always get what's coming to them," she said with venom in her tone. Beni gulped and looked concerned. "Yeah?" he replied. And Rosie nodded "oh yea always, and if not then I can just give it to you straight," she said and looked at him with a look to kill. Beni shivered at her stare and looks even more worried, he nervously starts chewing on his lip. All three of them walk over the bridge crossing the disgusting detritus moat. Rosie looks down at it, horrified.

O'Connell, Evie, and Ardeth are busy digging out a collapsed doorway. Jonathan notices a jewel encrusted scarab on the far wall. "I say, look at that", He walks over and tries to jiggle it free. It comes loose in his hand. He looks at the scarab in his palm. It starts to glow. And then something inside it starts to wiggle. "Say, gents! You should come to have a look at this" he said with a smile. The wiggling continues; a long, agonizing beat, and then the scarab breaks out of its cocoon and instantly burrows into Jonathan's palm. Jonathan starts to freak out and scream. O'Connell runs up and rips the arm off Jonathan's shirt. Evie screamed and looked as the scarab is now BURROWING UP JONATHAN'S ARM. "it's a flesh-eating scarab! You need to cut it out before it gets to his brain!" She said and O'Connell whips out his butterfly knife, snaps it open, and grabs Jonathan's arm. Jonathan's eyes widen in terror as the knife passes in front of his face. Jonathan SCREAMS LOUDER, obviously being cut open. O'Connell digs out the nasty bug. The scarab hits the floor and immediately starts scurrying back towards Jonathan, wanting to finish the job. O'Connell pulls out his gun and blows it away, --BLAM!

The gunshot echoes into the cemetery as Imhotep, Evelyn, and Beni step up to the strange altar, where four thousand years ago Imhotep tried to once bring Anak-sun-amun back to life. He had time to think in his four thousand-year-long prison to see how much he took his wife for granted. He wanted her back. Imhotep scowls at the sound of the gun going off and angrily reaches into a canopic jar. He pulls out the crusted remains of Satiah's heart, crushes it to dust in his hand, and starts reading from The Book Of The Dead. Then he blows the dust against a mausoleum wall, -- the walls were starting to come to life. Rosie and Beni stare at the wall, both of them wide-eyed. Two forms emerge from the mausoleum's wall. Horrific-looking mummified corpses. Two of Imhotep's long-dead Priests. They bow to Imhotep,-then turn and move off down a passageway.

Evie helps Ardeth Bay mend Jonathan's wound. "From now on, don't touch anything. Not a damn thing. Keep your hands off the furniture, got it?" RIck scolded Jonathan and Evie looked at the wound on her brother's hand, cleaning it before bandaging. Jonathan swallows hard and nods vigorously. "Oh, Jonathan" she muttered softly.

Imhotep prepares the altar while speaking in Hebrew. Beni holds his gun on her, translating "Prince Imhotep is anxious to start the ritual and regain your memories." Rosie looked confused. "What- but..I thought you were going to sacrifice me" she said and Imhotep spoke again in Hebrew to Beni. "ah, change of plan...it has come to the prince's attention that you are the reincarnation of his lovely departed wife. He will put her soul into you.." he explained and Rosie looked at Imhotep. "And what of my soul?" he smirked. Speaking in Egyptian. "Your soul will burn in the Underworld".

O'Connell squeezes through a small crevice in a wall and drops to the floor of a dark chamber. He picks up his gunny-sack and scans the darkness. Something glitters. Evie, Jonathan, and Ardeth Bay crawl in behind him. O'Connell notices a shaft of light, high above him, shooting through a small hole in the ceiling and stopping against a wall next to one of those mirror disks. O'Connell aims his gun. fires. The bullet strikes the disk's pedestal, spinning the mirror into the shaft of light, --And wham! The light hits the disk and quickly bounces around the room from one disk to another until the whole chamber is lit up. It's an enormous treasure chamber. Filled to overflowing. Everything sparkles and shines. The wealth of Egypt. O'Connell, Jonathan, and Ardeth Bay are speechless. While Evie is gushing at all of the relics that she could spot. that's when the two mummified Priest-mummies walk in. "who the hell are these guys?" O'Connell asked and Ardeth and Evie looked nervous. "Those seem to be uh" she looked at them and saw reminisce of a priest's uniform. "Priests!" she said and Ardeth explained more. "Imhotep's priests" Evie nodded as she watched them come closer.

O'Connell pulls the elephant gun out of his gunny-sack. "Well, I never killed a priest before," he said and looked to see Evie give him a disapproving look. "They are evil, cursed, they matter not," Ardeth said and got his gun ready too. "Well, okay then" O'Connell fires the elephant gun. smoke and flame shoot out. blasting one of the mummies. Blows it's upper torso clean off. O'Connell pumps the gun, the huge spent cartridge flips through the air. He fires again. blasts the other mummy, blows this one's torso clean off as well. The smoke clears. The two sets of legs keep walking forward, unaffected by the loss of their upper torsos. O'Connell can't believe it. Neither could the others. Evie made a face. "They won't stop!" she said and shot at the legs. "Oh come on, gimme a break here," Rick said sounding tired and annoyed. And then the disemboweled upper torsos start to move, turning over and crawling towards our heroes, who start to back away.

Imhotep turns from the altar as he hears more gunshots echoing out of the passageways. He angrily reaches into another of Satiah's canopic jars, pulls out her crusty liver, and crushes it to dust, then quickly starts reading a passage from the Book and blows the dust down a passageway. Imhotep's voice seemed to echo in the passageway as he spoke in Egyptian. "Kill them! Kill them all! And bring me the Book Of The Living!"
