I do not own Night at the Museum. I only own Rose.

Story Start

The mummy seemed to stare me down for a minute or two before finally shouting a command at his guards. The guards bent down and grabbed the three old men. Thankfully they did not kill them, but it was still scary to see how tiny the men were once held by the guards.

I went to let out a sigh of relief, but that sigh never sounded because the mummy was once again staring me down. He said something to me, but I couldn't understand him so I shook my head. I watched as he reached up and started removing the bandages around his face. I was ready for a decomposed corpse or skeleton, but not the good looking man that was actually under the bandages.

"Rose, Rose, are you ok?" I heard Larry yelling from somewhere in the museum and soon his footsteps were getting closer to the Egyptian exhibit.

"Daughter of the moon," the man in front of me whispered and I looked at him again. I gasped as I was thrown into another vision and the tablet glowed brightly in my hand.

A girl that looked just like me was standing outside in some elaborate courtyard while holding the tablet and looking up at the moon. A light was illuminating her body and the small tears trailing down her cheeks.

"Wait, please, don't," a man shouted and the girl turned around to stare at the man I had just been looking at in the museum. He looked heartbroken and terrified. "Don't," he said again but the girl shook her head.

"You know that I have to. I was only here to help you and your family learn how to properly control the tablet. Now I must return home," the girl said softly as she seemed to glow brighter.

"But I love you, you cannot leave," the man said and the girl's face was covered in more tears.

"This will not be the last time you see me, but when you see me next I will no longer be as I am now. I will just be like you, a mortal," the girl said and soon she disappeared with a bright flash and the tablet floated gently to the ground.

The vision ended and I couldn't help but collapse to my knees on the floor. I felt really weak for some reason. "I can't be her, can I?" I thought before flinching when I felt a warm hand touch my shoulder. A shock seemed to travel through my body and apparently through the mummy's as well because when I looked up he was staring at the tablet in shock. I glanced down and saw the tablet glowing brightly and soon both of us were covered in the bright light. I had to shut my eyes from the intensity of the illumination.

A burning sensation occurred around my wrists, ankles, and one of my fingers. I heard the man beside me grunt from whatever pain he was experiencing. Soon the light started to dim and when it was gone, I looked down and saw that the tablet was no longer flashing. However, I did notice some new accessories on my body. I now had gold anklets, large bracelets, and a ring on my left hand.

"The legend was true," I heard the man beside me mutter and I glanced up to see he had similar bracelets and a ring on as well.

"What legend?" I asked even though I heard Larry yelling at us to see if I was alright.

Instead of answering right away, the mummy got out of the sarcophagus and held his hand out for me. I took his hand and he helped me stand up. He was a little taller than me, but not too much.

"I am Ahkmenrah, and there is a legend that one day the daughter of the moon, the secret keeper for the tablet, would return in a mortal form. When she returned, we would be together forever. I just never believed that it would truly happen," the man said as he looked at me in awe, which was flattering but also making me nervous.

"But my name is Rose McPhee, and as far as I know, I'm not the daughter of the moon," I said as I went to hand him the tablet, but I thought better of it and put it back on the wall.

"But if you were not the daughter of the moon, then the tablet would not have activated," Ahkmenrah said curiously.

"What did the tablet do exactly?" I asked already dreading the answer.

"It has tied our souls together for eternity, essentially marrying us," he answered with a big smile.

"Oh," I said and immediately everything went black.
