Hello, hello, feeling much better, thanks for all the reviews!

disclaimer: McKenna: They only own me!

Chapter- Is now really the best time?

Ahkmenrah took it surprisingly well, Nicky helped him unravel from the bandages and he was revealed to be wearing some... Pretty cool clothes underneath. Larry came up with the plan, and Ahkmenrah spoke quickly to his statues as he grabbed his crown from his sarcoughogius and when he placed it on his head, the jackles threw a stone and busted down the gate.

All four of us ran out, Larry calling to the Jackles as we ran,"Thanks, guys. Don't worry. I'll watch out for him! Thank you."

As we ran for the Lobby, it was somewhat funny because Ahkmenrah's clothes were mostly made out of beads and small metal pieces so her jangled as he ran. Larry caught up to me,"So, McKenna, did you call me dad back there... You know when-"

I shouted at him over my shoulder,"Is NOW really the best time to talk about this?!"

"Alright. Fine. Well do it later!"

We came to a halt at the banister of the lobby and found everything in anarchy. My eyes widened at the mess that was being made. I looked over and spotted Kota sniffing around the floor... Looking for me?

My head snapped up at shouts in a different language and Ahkmenrah asked Larry,"What is that?"

The men shouted and pointed at Larry, angry and apparently out for blood. Larry paled,"Huns," Larry straightened his back and said," I gotta deal with this guy."

The next thing I knew, Larry was running and the Huns were running and they were both screaming. I walked behind them, not really focused on the screaming match.

I spotted Kota tasting the air and called down to him,"KOTA!"

Kota's head snapped up and he chirped happily before heading to the nearest staircase. He got up them fast and ran up to me, I patted his head,"Good boy! Good boy!"

I walked back over with the screaming match pretty much over, Larry had attempted to speak the Hun's language, pretty amusing. Ahkmenrah had stepped forward and said,"Pardon me, Larry. I speak Hun."

Ahkmenrah and Atilla the Hun, yeah I think that's the Atilla model in the museum, spoke for a few moments before Ahkmenrah turned to Larry,"He says that he wants to rip you apart."

"All right. Again with the ripping," Larry sighed,"Listen, I understand. I get it. Ripping for you... You want to rip things, okay? And I think maybe that's because somebody ripped you a long time ago. In here. Somebody ripped little...baby Attila a long time ago, right here. They ripped something out, didn't they? They ripped the love. They ripped the love right out of you, didn't they? A little baby all alone in a tent...whose daddy went off...to pillage some town...or go and plunder somewhere, just doing his job. But who was left alone? You," my eyes widened as Atilla was quickly reduced to a crying mess and Larry tried to sing him the lullaby that everyone should know," It's okay. It's okay. Good. That's good. Just breathe."

"Larry Daley," Atilla said.

"Yeah?"

Attila said some more stuff I didn't catch and Larry just nodded and went with it,"Good. Yes," he said happily as the two of them hit each other's chests,"Yeah. Okay. Good, good."

Larry went over to the banister and I watched as he tried to he everyone's- who was fighting/partying- attention,"All right! I need everybody to listen up! Guys! Come on!"

"Quiet," The Easter island statue yelled, and Kota and I both jumped when he shouted. But, thankfully everyone stopped fighting, and the head said,"My dum-dum want to speak."

"Thank you," Larry thanked him,"Now, this here's King Ahkmenrah. His tablet is what brings you to life every night. And those old night watchmen. They stole it. Now, we need to find those guards and get the tablet back...and we need to do it before morning. Civil War guys," Larry pointed to them and they all instantly snapped to attention,"head over to the Planetarium Wing. My explorer friend ...whose name escapes me."

I coughed and muttered,"It's Columbus."

"Right, Columbus! Right, I'm sorry. There's no nameplate, so... Columbus, take the Neanderthals...and do a sweep from lnvertebrates all the way through Reptiles," Lasry ordered an pointed, "Jed and Octavius, their van's parked out back," he motioned to the back parking lot,"Go take care of it!"

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, no," Jedidia called up to Larry," No, sir. I ain't working with toga boy."

"Romans work alone," Octavius claimed checking his nails, but Jed slammed the butt of his gun into Oct's foot,"OW!"

"That didn't hurt," Jed sneered,"Don't be a baby."

"Yes, it did," Oct whined.

"Come on," Larry sighed as Oct slammed his sword into Jed's hind end.

"That was much harder!" Jed yelled and the two started fighting again.

"Guys, come on," Larry yelled and they froze,"Jed, Octavius. Take away the fact you were born 2000 years apart- you guys aren't that different. You're both great leaders. You just want what's best for your people, right?"

"Yeah."

"Yep."

"Civil War dudes," Larry called out," You guys are brothers, for God's sakes. You gotta stop fighting. North wins. Slavery's bad. Sorry. Don't wanna burst your bubble. But, South, you guys get Allman Brothers," who? Larry took a few moments to think of something else,"and NASCAR, so just chill! Look, without that tablet, all of this...this whole coming-to-life-at-night thing, it all goes away. Now, I don't wanna let that happen, but I need your help. We can get this done, but we gotta do it together. So who's with me?"

Most of the exhibits cheered.

"Who's with me?"

Everyone cheered this time, even I did. Kota let out a chirp for his, Teddy pulled out his own sword and held it out,"Charge!" I smiled as Rexy let out a roar.

"All right," Larry shouted triumphantly,"Now, let's do this, people! And animals! And weird, faceless puppet creatures. Come on, let's go! Let's do it!"
