Chapter 15 - CHAPTER FOURTEEN

"I can't believed he took her. He knew what we doing last night and he knew she were alone. He take this chance while we _ I don't know what can I explain what means is".

Mr. Charles glance over his wife, she keep blaming herself for Evelyn's kidnapping. That wasn't her fault, non of this is someone fault.

"What the world is He?" ask Charles. "A priest in Egypt?"

"Imhotep is the Pharaoh adviser. Trusted priest. Some say it some kind of betrayer between the Pharaoh and Imhotep. The Pharaoh sentence him to death when he still alive".

Breathing. Ardeth spoke again. "We, the Medjai, the warriors protect the land. But he suddenly awaken by mistakes".

"Evelyn wake him. I know. My wife told me. I could said that was insane but true. It happen right now. Now his have our Evelyn, what will he'll do to her".

"I can't do to protect her. I'm here. I was here.". Ardeth blaming himself. "I can't turn back the time where it happen. If I can and I'll be ready for him".

Mama Madeline shaking her head worry about Evelyn in Hamunaptra alone with Imhotep. "What can you do if you can turn back the time? You can't do nothing, his strong than us".

"His love toward the princess never endless. He still love her even after his dead. His dead follow by the princess marriage to Ramesses II the great. King of Egypt and she his the queen".

He stared to Mama Madeline. "Yes. I cannot fight the creature but I know how to defeat him by Evelyn help, she's the only one who could bring him back into the underworld. A place where he'd belong _ forever".

Mama Madeline sigh, said. "Can't the priest falling love?"

"There's no reason the priest can't had his own life, a family of his own, love. There's no forbidden in ancient".

He rub his head. "I felt guilty toward Evelyn".

"Don't blame yourself, Ardeth. You did your job and we appreciate it. Now, this time we must think how to get her back. This is not the police doing. So you and Jonathan must go back there".

"This creature people are afraid of. With his return _ I must kill him". He turn to Jonathan. "The weapon couldn't kill him, but for our protection. Obviously if someone attempt to stop the creature, he's not belong to this world".

Ardeth walk pass Jonathan. "Come, Jonathan. We safe her and kill the creature". They walk. Mama Madeline spoke.

"Be safe. Return to us in one pieces. I have no strength to grief, crying upon your death".

"That's urm _ devastating advising". said Jonathan. "We will".

"Don't worry, Mama Madeline". said Ardeth. "Evelyn and Jonathan will be back safe without harm. I promise you". He smile.

Meanwhile in Cairo, Egypt. Nowhere place, empty town, empty building, empty house and empty bed. Evelyn are sleep on the cold cement, the empty house were previous place Imhotep and Babu stay.

She wasn't in London anymore, not even her comfy room. They're back now. Where it begin.

Weird smell around the room caught her attention while she sleep. Gently she stretched her bones, yawning so hard and louder.

Her eyes slowly open up, getting her sight back from blurring sleep. As she got her sight eyes back, she jolt in panic, slide her hips at the end of the corner. Her back leans on the empty wall.

She look around the room. Scared? No, she wasn't scared at all. Just confused. How the hell I'am back to Cairo? She thought. Imhotep?

"Oh my God! I'm not supposed to be in here. Did Imhotep took me back in here?" She ask herself. "No jokes".

She crawling on the cement, looking for the window. She can't breathe and need an air before she suffocated for no reason.

She found the window. Raise up from the cold cement, standing. Her eyes look out middle of the empty ground. There's no one on the ground. The town are completely no one. Just couple of people whom walk pass in here.

What kind of this place is it?

"Did I just flew from London. This is insane. Truly no jokes about this. I'am back in Cairo but what kind of this place? Who gonna help me? Jonathan, Ardeth. Please tell me you both men are prepare for your arriving in here".

Look down again. "Care for a jump? This is _ "

She about to vomit, the building kind a higher, if she jump _ well, she probably death or having broken bones.

"What if he caught me again. I'm too brilliant for escaping".

She felt someone standing behind her, she look over her shoulder finding Imhotep standing behind her with damn smile. She back away from him, back to the corner room.

"Get way from me!" He approach her, "STOP! Don't you understand. Get away from me!"

"I can't understand you". said Imhotep in ancient. But then he remembered he had Mr. Burns tongue. If Mr. Burns speaks english, maybe he can. He use Mr. Burns tongue. Yes, he can. "Evelyn?"

"You? You speaks english?"

Imhotep stunned a bit, he'll do speaks english.

"I - I have someone tongue with me. His tongue speaks this".

His lips stutters as he spoke to Evelyn. It's hard to said but he must get use to it, so then she can understand him.

"Can - can you understand me?"

Her eyes widen. "You stole Mr. Burns tongue. You stole his eyes, you eat his flesh. That what you are". Gulping, she spoke again. "You kill those americans. Get away from me your pervert!"

"Please, I don't mean to _" He stop, his face sudden change for no reason. "Pervert? Is that what they said. What they called?"

"Huh?"

"Pervert".

Evelyn blinked, she look confusing too.

Doesn't he know what that mean.

No wait, he got Mr. Burns tongue and eyes. Not the brain, but he eat him also part of his brain too.

"Pervert". Imhotep repeat that words.

"That wasn't a nice words". She explain to him. "Because you had sexual obsession towards me that _ is the words". She breathe. "What kind of this place anyway".

Imhotep look around the room. "This is where I lived since I awake. There a boy too who lived with me. Because of my mistake, the boy scared of me and I don't know where is he right now".

"You mean Babu?" His eyes locked on hers. "If is true, he safe in medjai base".

As she mentioned about medjai, Imhotep face change to anger. "You hurt the boy, Imhotep. You scared him away. Don't look for him anymore".

Imhotep sigh. Nod his head. She feel sorry for him, imagine a 3,000 years dead man who accidently awaken to the future he barely known. And now this? That he had to face the new world alone _ again.

"I wasn't trying to scared that boy. I don't have to, people already fear me anyway". said Imhotep in low voice. "I'am the monster".

He look up at her. "You wake me. That the reason why I'm here, you did it. And now you face it with me".

He walk towards her. There no where she could run, there no escaping, there no space between her and Imhotep.

Bugger!

"And now, I'm gonna show you who you really are".

"I'am who I'am. My name is Evelyn Carnahan, born in London to famous adventurers parent and I have a brother name Jonathan Carnahan. I'am what I'am".

Snickering, he said. "Are you sure? Are you sure which sort of place you born. I don't think you know what you saying".

"I don't have any mental issue of my own. I'm not belong to the past _ especially I'm not belong to you". Again, he walk towards her slowly. "Stay _ AWAY!"

"I mark you, Evelyn. The queen of Egypt married to Ramesses II the great. Had a large harem who incredibly devoted to his wife and was obsessed with her beauty. His admiration for his wife, as this love story is so important to Egyptian history".

Imhotep bow to her. Then look up.

"You are the Queen of Egypt, his first and most beloved. She also highly educated woman and she had the ability that non other women have. She's not an ordinary woman. This is why _ I love her so much".

"That nothing had to do with me, Imhotep. I'm not hers. I'm not Nefertiti you think. I wasn't her either".

"You are her reincarnation, Evelyn. You have her strengths, her brilliant, her brave, her pride _ I pray to have her in my arm and here you are. You can't change your faith that your destiny is mine. It was before you born".

They now are closer than she thought. She can feel his breath on her forehead, she shut her eyes.

"You are my Nefertiti and you also are Evelyn. I've been longing to have you, waited for you. Waited for this moment".

Smile. He about to kiss her on lips. She push his hard body away from her. What Imhotep told her about Nefertiti that she had her strength. Now, she use it. She push him, he about to stumbled on his back.

But he keep it steady by his muscle legs.

"Enough of your dreaming. It make me sick! Nefertiti is dead like 3,000 years just like you. She won't reborn or meet you. Confessing her love. Never".

She lick her lips then smirking. "You can't have me as long I still lived".

She look over her shoulder where's the window at, and she had an stupid ideas how will she escaping from Imhotep.

"Never!"

She scream right in front of his face before she jump iut from the window. Imhotep couldn't react but panic.

Evelyn did jump out the window. Thanks to Ardeth who teach her how to landing in good position to the ground without having broken bones.

She reach the ground without looking her back, she run. Until she reach at the market where she could seek for help.

"Help me!" She scream in Egypt. "Someone? Help ME!" She run again. "Do something!"

She feel hopeless as no one trying to help her. Are they deaf or blind? Can't their see what happen? What happen to these people, did Imhotep over power them.

"Anyone?" Tired. She standing middle of the market. "That not possible".

Ignoring. Resuming her run. She look at her back, but Imhotep stand before her with his unsatisfied face. She bump into him, her forehead on his hard chest.

He caught her arm and squeeze it. She hissed in pain. "Let go off me! You cursed them, that why they don't help me where I need. You over power them!"

"I don't need to over power them. In here they don't care how panic or pain you are. They just don't care and mind your own business".

"NO! It can't be right". Again she trying to push him. "You hurting my arm, Imhotep!"

"If you don't want to get hurt, you must listen to me and what I'd said".

He pulled her together, carried her back towards the empty house where she sudden become a stunt woman who jumping out the window without saying action.

Screaming, shouting, punched his face, his hard body even kicking. Nothing could effected him. He strong enough to crush her bones to dust.

She couldn't fight him. Not by her bare hand. She too gorgeous to fight for.

They're now back to the house. Gently he laid her on the cold cement, he push her legs apart so then he can stand between her legs.

She's the most beautiful woman he had loved for. His Nefertiti. "GET OFF! HELP! SOMEBODY HELP!"

"Don't waste your time screaming, they don't hear you from here".

With him between her legs. He won't letting her go again, he won't failed to have her in his arm. Even twice of his death.

"Your heavy. GET OFF!"

Imhotep on top of her now, he slowly leans closer to her face. Without doubts, he kissed her passionately on lips. Until she can't breath for a once.

She muffled between the kiss. He didn't even bother how much he had her hurt, swallow her scream. His hand begin to unbuttoned her clothes. What she wearing last night.

Imhotep growled as his lips move down between her neckline, nip and sucked there. Evelyn scream again. This time she can't push him away, he pinned her down by his craziest strength.

Who gonna stop Imhotep for having Evelyn in his arm.

His hand cupped side of her face as he spoke to her. "Your belong to me my princess. You are my soul, my stars".

Silent. He lick between her cleavage. Whimpering. Evelyn close her eyes.

You're mine, my moon, my stars and my light. Together.
