Wasn’t there a Cherik The Mummy (1999) AU fic somewhere? I can’t find it now. Or did I just imagine it in my head?
There's a few Mummy AUs as I recall, though the multi-chaptered ones are unfinished:
courting the end of the world by faerie_ground (WIP)
You honestly thought there would be nothing wrong,” Erik growls, “with reading out incantations from a book literally titled Book of the Dead.”
“Well, when you put it like that,” Charles says weakly. “Look, you didn’t stop me either!”
Or Erik is a hapless ex-soldier hunting his mother's killer down, Charles is a professor, and together they accidentally raise the worst sort of mummy they could possibly raise.
The Consort by Redring91 (WIP)
The land of Ancient Egypt was ruled over by the First One, the great En Sabah Nur, who was worshipped as a god. But when he sought to produce an army of gifted disciples, he was betrayed, and his Horsemen slain. En Sabah Nur was entombed beneath the City of the Dead, condemned to an undead existence.
Librarian Charles Xavier and his sister Raven enlist former prisoner Erik Lehnsherr to aid them with an expedition to Hamunaptra. The presence of Sebastian Shaw, leading a rival archaeological team, complicates matters. The excavation quickly turns dire as evil is reawakened. En Sabah Nur is determined to continue his work – and regards Erik essential to his success.
Love Immortal by Gerec
Iruk is the lover of Pharaoh Seti I, and General of his army. Chaires is the High Priest of the Sun God Ra, and Iruk's childhood friend.
Nothing and no one will come between them again. Not the gods, not the Pharaoh, not even death.
(Or 'The Mummy' Movie AU)
