I don't own Night at the Museum


The moment Larry swiped his card and entered in the 'Personnel Only' room, he took out his cell phone and dialed his home phone number back to New York where his son was staying over. Olivia ad Madison followed closely right behind their uncle. Madison couldn't contain her excitement whilst Olivia thought she was going to pass out. Her idea them being in this room was forbidden, as if they were breaking tons of rules and in reality, they were.

"Oh I hope they don't catch us," the seventeen year old said in worried tone of voice.

"Olivia, stop worrying too much and live in the adventure," Madison said to her with a wide grin upon her lips.

"What adventure?" Olivia asked her as she tried to keep walking closely to their heels, "we're going to get caught, we're going to get arrested! I don't want that on my academic record!"

Larry then turned his head and looked at Olivia. She worried too much and that was not good for them and for herself. "Okay, okay, Olivia," Larry said as he looked at the seventeen year old, "we've made it this long way, alright? Let's just go through it. We're not going to get nothing. Nothing is going happen," the man tried to reassure her but he could tell that it was little help towards her.

Olivia nodded her head to him. "Let's just get this thing and get out," she said.

"Yeah," Larry said, "I just need to find the proper floor their in. Nick?" he said to his phone, "alright buddy I'm in, I'm at the Northeast corridor of the Castle, just off the Commons," Larry said over to Nick as the young boy gave him directions on where to go.

The three of them went down a couple flights of stairs until they got down to the B level of the stairway which was where Larry lost contact with Nick. "Damn," he cursed under his breath as he looked at his phone.

"What?" Madison asked as she looked up to Larry.

"I lost contact," Larry said to her before looking up to see one of the Smithsonian's personnel walking about the flight of stairs. "Here guys," Larry whispered to them as he pulled Olivia and Madison into one of the rooms that was more of a locker room. Larry walked to one of the lockers and noticed the various museum night guard outfits that were hung. Looks like I'm back in business Larry thought as he as he took one of spare outfits.

Madison looked at the outfit with a raised brow. "Do we have to wear any of those?" she asked.

"If you want to blend in," Larry said as he looked at the two girls before throwing them two spare outfits, "I suggest that you do."

Madison picked one of the jackets and wore it around her frame. The jacket was huge and not the proper size. "I'll just wear this," she said as she held the jacket tightly around her, "I'd rather not trip over the stairs."

Olivia made no movement as she looked at the head of clothes on the floor, causing Larry to sigh. "Fine," he said, "but we have less than twenty-eight minutes before sundown. We have to get going now." With that, Larry led the girls out of the room and through a couple of more flights of stairs until the reached they finally reached the basement of the museum.

Olivia and Larry were the first two to reach it. "Wait," Larry said as he turned around when he heard a wheezing sound coming down the flight of stairs. Madison stumbled into the room. "Guys," she said before placing a hand over her chest and huffing and puffing for breath, "slow down your pace a little bit...whoo!" she exclaimed and straightened herself in an upright position.

Olivia went over to help Madison whilst Larry took out his ID and flashed it over to a camera where he could gain access to the storage. A buzz suddenly echoed throughout the room as Olivia and Madison looked up and saw Larry hold the door for them. "Come on guys," Larry whispered as the two sister followed him inside as the door shut behind him.

Larry flipped open the flashlight as he began to looked through the various silhouettes and wax figures that were stored within each and every corner of the museum.

"I feel like I am a part of 'The Wax People,'" Olivia whispered referring to the twentieth century horror film as she held closely onto Madison and looked at every corner of the room with fright in her eyes.

Larry then stopped short as he noticed a long rectangular box before them. "Let's see if they're in here," he said as he held on his flashlight and released the hook for the box. A long, large tentacle spilled out of the box and into the floor causing Olivia to gasp.

Madison titled her head as she picked up the tentacle. "Come on Livy," she said as she called her sister by her nickname whom Olivia detested very much. "It's just an octopus."

Larry bent to the ground as he picked a handful of the gargantuan tentacles and with Madison's help, stuffed them back into the box. "That was not it," Larry said but it wasn't until his attention was caught but a couple of shadowed wax figures and...was that a mummy that they were holding onto?

Olivia's eyes followed Larry as she looked where Larry did.

"Whoa," Madison said as she bounded over to the frozen wax figures. "They're Egyptian!" she exclaimed as she was standing face to face with one of the guards who had his spear pointed straight at the crate. As she walked her eyes fell upon a rotted mummy that one of the guards was holding. "Ngah!" Madison jumped back as she looked at it. "That's so weird!"

"Yeah Madison," Larry said as he walked up to her, "I wouldn't be standing over there."

"It's not like they're going to do anything," Madison said to him, "they're inanimate objects. What's he gonna do? Jump out a cream at me," she said as she looked at the mummy with a raised brow.

"You don't know half of it Madison," Larry said to her, "so just keep away from the wax figures."

"Uncle Larry come on," Madison said as she walked around the soldiers and accidentally bumped into another. She looked up to see whom it was but none another than a pharaoh. "Whoops, sorry about that buddy," she said as she gave a pat to the wax figure as she reached for the shoulder, "see? No response."

There was no more time to waste. "Come and help me," Larry said to Olivia as they approached the large crate. Larry peeked inside and saw that the tablet was held by no one than the famous capuchin from the Museum of Natural History in New York. "You little troublemaker," Larry snapped as he pointed his index finger to Dexter, "I'm gonna deal with you later."

Olivia rose a brow and looked at Larry as she was about to ask whom Larry was speaking to. It wasn't until Larry took a hold of one of the spears that the guards were holding that he reached inside the crate.

Meanwhile, Madison was preoccupied as she looked from one guard to the other and then back at the pharaoh. "It's amazing how accurately they capture their expressions. These guys really look like they're ready for a battle," she said as she looked back and Larry and Olivia before looking back at the wax figures.

Larry finally managed to get a hold of the tablet but suddenly, the Tablet of Ahkmenrah began glowing a bright shade of yellow "No. No! No, no, no!" Larry quickly spoked as if that was going to stop the tablet from bringing the wax figures to life.

An order was shouted from right behind them as Larry and Olivia both whipped around and Madison scurried to hide behind Larry and her sister.

"Taplet ma, rah," the once frozen pharaoh statue came to life as he shouted commands towards his guards who made their way at Larry and the two sisters. Madison's eyes wandered around the room and they fell upon the guard who was holding a young looking pharaoh hostage. Wait...wasn't he a mummy just a couple of seconds ago?

Larry looked over at the young pharaoh. "Oh man," he whispered under his breath. He knew that young pharaoh very well and after the phone call he had gotten from Jedediah, this was anything but a family reunion.

Confused, the older pharaoh squinted as he looked at Larry, Olivia, and Madison asking them a question in Ancient Egyptian. When he received no response he tried a different language, "parlez vous...parlez vous français?" he asked.

"Ooh oui!" Maidson spoke out only to get her foot stomped on by Olivia, "ow!" she shot a glare at her sister.

"Then English...English perhaps?" the pharaoh asked, a slight lisp lingered in his speech when he spoke.

Finally Larry thought thinking that he was going to have to converse in a foreign language with the Ancient Egyptian pharaoh. "I'm sorry, who are you?" he asked her.

"I am Kahmunrah,Great King of the Great Kings, and from the darkest depths of ancient history, I have come back to life!" the pharaoh exclaimed in a diabolical manner only getting no response from Larry, a roll of the eyes from the young pharaoh being held hostage, a whimper from Olivia, and a 'whoa' from Madison.

However those were not the type of responses that Kahmunrah was expecting. "Perhaps you did not hear what I just said. I am a centuries-old Egyptian Pharaoh. I was dead,
but now I have come back to life!" he exclaimed in the same manner as he had done before.

"Wait," Madison jumped in as she walked away from Olivia and Larry, "how do you pronounce your name again?"

"Kah-mun-rah," the pharaoh pronounced his name.

Madison nodded her head with every pronunciation. "Kah-mun-rah," she said as she carefully pronounced the name, "Livy check to see if it's on that assignment sheet."

"Now is not the time Madison!" Olivia snapped through grit ten teeth as she pulled her stubborn sister back to Larry.

Kahmunrah looked from one person to the next. "Who-who are you?" he then asked them.

Larry then jumped in. "My name is Larry Daley. Daley Devices?" he said as he held out his hand to him for shake but only got the guards pointing his spears at them in return. Olivia squirmed as she pushed herself closer to her uncle for protection. "It's up in New York," Larry continued until his attention fell over to the young pharaoh that was being held hostage, "it's funny, I know your brother, Ahkmenrah."

Olivia turned her head as she looked at the young pharaoh called Ahkmenrah. He beheld a very youthful look upon his features, making him look no older than eighteen. He looked like he was trying to put on a brave face towards this whole situation but fear lingered in his eyes.

"Do you?" Kahmunrah's suddenly spoke as he turned his head and looked at his brother. "He knows baby brother. The favorite son."

Madison crossed her arms when he said that. This was sounding a bit homologous to her relationship with her sister Olivia. For the majority of the time her parents kept asking her the same question over and over, which was why can't you be more like your sister? Maybe because she did not want to be like her sister.

"Yeah, good kid," Larry replied to the pharaoh.

That compliment about his brother did not go well with the older pharaoh for it made him grow more jealous than he already was feeling. "Isn't he just?" he bitterly replied to the three of them, "you know, mother and father always gave him the best of everything and I do mean everything. They even gave him the throne." He stopped for a brief second before exclaiming, "the throne which was rightfully mine!"

Ahkmenrah let out an exasperated sigh and rolled his eyes at his brother's exclaim. "Kahmunrah, get over it already!"

"Get over it?!" Kahmunrah angrily yelled as he whipped around and looked at his brother, "you best as well hold your tongue brother," he bitterly said as he approached his brother getting face-to-face with him, "I am the one in charge."

Madison snorted when he said that. "That's what Livy always says to me."

"I do not," Olivia said to her, "and stop calling me Livy...Maddie," she called her sister by her nickname.

Madison only shrugged her shoulders. "That does not bother me, Livy."

"Guys quiet," Larry said as he turned around and looked at the two girls and the both of them shut their mouths.

Kahmunrah turned around from his brother and raised a brow at their little debacle. "Who are they?" he asked Larry.

"Oh," Larry turned his head as he briefly looked at the two girls behind him, "these are my nieces, Madison and Olivia."

Olivia mentally face palmed. Now was not the time for introductions for she did not even want to be here standing next to a power-hungry pharaoh. "We're sisters!" Madison's enthusiastic voice suddenly made it's way to her ears as Olivia let out a groan afterwards.

"Sisters?" the pharaoh said with his infamous lisp as he looked from girl to another, "must be rather nice...at times."

"Oh you don't know half of it!" Madison spoke as if she and Kahmunrah had been friends since elementary school.

"Madison!" Larry uncharacteristically snapped as he looked at his youngest niece. This was getting on his last nerve as he could hear the voices coming within the large crate where his friends were kept and he hated seeing Ahkmenrah kept hostage.

"No matter," Kahmunrah spoke as he turned his attention back to them, "now begins the era of Kahmunrah because I have come back to, never mind just hand me the tablet."

"Don't give it to him Larry," Ahkmenrah frantically shook his head as he tried to maintain a brave face but fear was in his eyes.

"Silence!" Kahmunrah snapped at his youngest brother.

Ahkmenrah glared at his brother. "Make me," he shot back.

"That can be done," Kahmunrah said, "but I would rather not waste my energy, especially now that we have some company." His eyes wandered over to the tablet that Larry had in his arm and pointed to it, "that tablet is more powerful than you, Larry Daley of Daley Devices, can possibly imagine. Bringing things back to life is just a parlor trick. With it, I shall unlock the Gate to the Underworld and bring forth my army from the Land of the Dead."

Ahkmenrah mashed his lips together when he heard his brother say that. Bringing back his army would be nearly impossible for them to stop Kahmunrah. What then? What would happen to him? What would happen to his friends? What would happen to Larry? He shook his head when he heard his brother speak of such cruelty. "You're a..." he stopped from speaking, fearing he would say something that he was going to regret. He did not want to stoop down to his own brother's level.

Kahmunrah straightened as he turned around and looked at his brother. "I'm a what?" he asked him.

Ahkmenrah clenched his jaw, his stare not breaking away from his brother's. "You're a...disappointment." Did he regret saying that to his only brother? His only brother who had had grown jealous of him, made him feel at fault for it, and slaughtered him for the throne? Yes.

There was no sound coming from Larry, Olivia, Madison, or even Kahmunrah himself. A brief change of emotion came upon the older pharaoh's eyes when his brother said that. That was how he had felt four thousand years ago. It wasn't until he took a deep breath and his features turned dark as he looked at his brother. "I do not warn my enemies twice baby brother," he snapped, "so I best advise you to keep your mouth shut!"

Ahkmenrah was about to say something back in return but Kahmunrah had already turned his attention back over to Larry. "So, if it's not too much trouble hand it over."

Larry briefly looked over at Ahkmenrah and then back at Kahmunrah, a plan was beginning to form in his mind and he crossed his fingers that it would be successful and work. "Okay, here you go," he said as he handed him the golden tablet.

"Larry!" Ahkmenrah shouted.

"Uncle Larry!" Olivia shouted in unison with Ahkmenrah as she looked at him in shock.

However, a smirk made its way to the pharaoh's lips as he looked up at Larry. "Wise decision." He then looked at his guards and motioned for them to follow him to go back to his gate where they would unleash the Army of the Dead. Ahkmenrah was dragged along with them as he looked at Larry with a helpless look that Larry never thought he would ever see before.

"I just thought you wanted the Cube," Larry said and that made Kahmunrah halt.

The pharaoh turned around as he looked at the night guard, "the Cube?" he echoed his words

"The Cube...of Rubik," Larry said.

Olivia furrowed her brows when Larry said that. What was he up to?

"All right," Kahmunrah sighed as he approached them, "what is this Cube of Rubik then?"

"The Cube. You know, the one that turns all who oppose you to dust?" Larry continued.

"Pfft," Madison scoffed when Larry said that, "what are you talking about? The Cube of Rubik doesn't do that."

"Don't listen to her, she's fifteen," Larry jumped in before Madison said anything else, "but your brother didn't want to mess with it, either. He wanted to play it safe, too."

Don't drag me into this Larry Ahkmenrah thought.

"You know," Kahmunrah said as he walked over to Larry, "I am not my brother, Larry. I will kill you, your friends, and your precious little nieces in the blink of an eye."

"Gee thanks!" Madison scowled when he said that, "one more thing I need to worry in my life along with that stupid history assignment."

"Now take me to this Cube of Rubik," Kahmunrah ordered the night guard as Larry very much obliged.

As they walked through the room, they soon came upon a large crate that looked all to familiar to Madison and Olivia. Wait a minute Olivia blinked at what she saw. If there was a fake octopus in there, then it would be alive? "Brace yourself Madison," she whispered to her sister.

Larry slowly unlocked out of the hooks in the box. Looking behind him, he gave a nod towards Olivia and Madison before unlatching the last hook. Before they knew it, an octopus jumped out of the box, sending shards of wood everywhere as his tentacles flapped about, hitting and grabbing the Egyptian guards. One guard that was holding onto Ahkmenrah was thrown to the side as the young pharaoh ran over to his brother and took the tablet out of his hand.

"You!" Kahmunrah immediately held tightly onto the tablet, "let go of my tablet!"

"It's my tablet brother," Ahkmenrah snapped as the octopus's tentacle wrapped around Kahmunrah and threw him to the side. Ahkmenrah had a satisfied smirk upon his lips. "Hence the name Tablet of Ahkmenrah." He turned and ran to Larry, "I got the tablet," he breathed out.

"Great! Come on guys!" he said to Olivia and Madison when he heard Kahmunrah screaming and ordering his guards to chase after them.

"Oh this got a lot ore fun," Madison chuckled as she followed after her sister. However, as she ran to catch up with Larry and Ahkmenrah, she was not as quick as her sister was. Before she knew it, an octopus tentacle hit her upon her stomach and sent her flying into the older pharaoh who was dusting himself off. "Oof!" Madison groaned as she looked up to see whom she had just smashed into.

Seeing this as an opportunity to keep a hostage, Kahmunrah immediately grabbed her by her arms and held her up to her feet.

"Ow, ow!" Madison groaned as he held her tightly by her arms, "a little softer would you?"

He pinned her against the wall, his hands holding her tightly around the arms as he stared at her. "You seem to have quite the cheeky tongue," he said to her, "I recommend you best watch it in my presence."

Fear suddenly began to overtake over the young girl but she tried her best not to show it. "What do you want with me?"

He answered her with a smirk. "What do I want? All the more for that Larry to come back with my tablet."
