16	* ''Status'': Complete
17	* ''Synopsis'': After TMR. Imhotep has raised Ancksunamun and conquered the earth. Rick, Evy, Ardeth, Jonathan, and some new characters must find each other to defeat Imhotep once more.
18	* ''Comments'': This is an epic, 37-chapter-long story that starts InMediasRes and slowly but masterfully builds up to the climax. It has the particularity of treating both "good" and "bad guys" with the same fairness, [[CharacterDevelopment developing characters]] in a way that flows easily and naturally. The [=OCs=] are equally well handled, each of them brings something vital to the story. A must-read.

24	* ''Synopsis'': "She could be damnably silly at times; she dressed like a spinster and carried herself like bloody royalty; but she was my baby sister, the only one I'd ever have. I'd been through hell to get her back, and now I was going to lose her anyway."
25	* ''Comments'': Set just after the first film, from Jonathan's point of view. It's perfectly hilarious and unexpectedly poignant at times, as the author writes an excellent Jonathan voice and all three main characters are perfectly characterised.
26	* ''Pairings'': Evy/Rick.

But when a tiny gold scorpion is revealed to have much greater value, she is thrust back into her family's life, and the life of a man she once hated." Equal parts adventure and developing romance.

40	* ''Synopsis'': "When Rick O'Connell agrees to take the Carnahan siblings to Hamunaptra, his sister Madeline insists on coming along. There, they unleash an evil thousands of years old on the earth, and meet Med-jai warrior Ardeth Bay, who becomes a problem for Madeline, as he's very attractive, and she can't stop acting like an idiot."
41	* ''Comments'': Rick's younger sister joining the adventure has been a staple in Mummy fanfiction, but what sets this story apart is how fleshed out the character of Madeline is, and how she has her own story outside of the main movie. The author further delves into the world of the Mummy, in the sequels that are just as good as the first story. Plus, I adore her relationships with Jonathan and Ardeth. Followed by sequels ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/4256944/1/Self-Esteem Self Esteem]]'' and ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/5102356/1/The-Return-of-the-Medjai The Return of the Medjai]]'', with the last one still in progress.

47	%%* ''Synopsis'': When Rick O'Connell was asked to lead a duo of siblings to a cursed city, he knew it was going to be trouble. When he started having dizzy spells and dreams from 3000 years ago, he was definitely weary of what was about to happen. And now, there was a walking, talking, plague ridden mummy after his ass. Not to kill him. Oh, he wished that was the case.
48	%%* ''Comments'': A reluctant Rick O'Connell is asked to lead Evy and Jonathan Carnahan to Hamunaptra; he knows from the start it's a bad idea. Upon arrival at Hamunaptra, Rick unexpectedly has dizzy spells and memories [[spoiler: which turn out to be from his past life in ancient Egypt. High Priest Imhotep is accidentally resurrected, and unfortunately for Rick, his previous incarnation was Imhotep's first love interested.]] A romantic interest also develops between Jonathan and Ardeth.

And instead of Eve getting stabbed by Meela/Anck-su-namun. It is Jonathan who gets stabbed instead. So Ardeth goes after Imhotep while Evie and Alex go to ressurect Jonathan (who also has a secret past life. He is Ramases, brother to Nefertiri and son to Seti.) And before Meela/Anck-su-namun goes in to stab Evie (who was distracting her from Alex reading the book of the dead). Jonathan comes to her rescue.
