It had been a very long night, but Rebecca couldn't rest. She had to go to work. She looked at Larry who was passed out on the bed. Shaking her head she left the apartment. At least someone could get their rest.

When she got to work it started at the any other day. She gave a few tours and answered any questions the guests had. It wasn't until noon that she had an unexpected visitor.

"Hello Ms. Hutman."

Rebecca stopped what she was doing and looked up, shocked at who she saw.

"It's Kendra, right? I thought you would be on your way to Greece."

"I was looking around you city and I enjoyed what I saw so I decided to stay here for a few months."

"Don't you have a job to get back to?"

"My father owns the museum so he doesn't mind if I take a vacation. Besides, he always says I work too hard and need to take more time off so I'm taking his advice."

"Where are you staying?"

"I've found a nice little apartment. Well, I need to be going. I hope to run into again soon." Then she left.

Rebecca thought it strange that Kendra decided to stay. What reason would she have? Nothing was making any sense. Maybe she didn't even work for a museum. One way or another Rebecca was going to find out about Kendra.

During her break, Rebecca decided to call the museum where Kendra worked, if she worked there at all. She knew something was going on and she had to find out what it was. Greece was seven hours ahead of New York so it would be around eight o'clock. She was hoping someone would still be there.

She dialed the number and after a few rings she was beginning to think that no one was around. Then finally someone answered.

"Athens City Museum, how can I help you?"

"My name is Rebecca Hutman and I work at the museum in New York where Cyrena was sent. I'm sorry to be calling late, but I was wondering about Kendra Regatos. Does she work there?"

"Yes, but she isn't here. She decided to stay in your country for a few months. Is there something wrong with Cyrena?"

"No, everything is fine. I was just hoping I could ask Kendra more about Cyrena's history."

"I do have the address she is staying at if you would like to visit her and ask her more questions. I'm sure she would be happy to explain."

"That would be kind of you."

After work Rebecca wasted no time in going over to where Kendra was staying. She called Larry and told him what she was doing.

"Are you sure you aren't looking too much into this?"

"Larry, how can you not think something strange is going on? When need Cyrena to break the curse on Nubia then all of a sudden we get her? Kendra decided to stay and there really isn't a reason. And she already has an apartment."

"Maybe she does just want to get away for awhile."

"I think there is more going on and I'm going to find out what it is."

Larry sighed, knowing he couldn't change her mind. "Fine, but just be careful."

"I will." Then she hung up.

When the sun set Larry was a little afraid of what would happen. He could still remember what happened the night before with the chimera. Would something else come alive tonight? He was hesitant to leave the lobby.

"Lawrence, why are you just standing around?"

Larry looked over at Teddy. "You missed what happened last night. One of the monsters that chase Nubia came to life. Nubia was also fighting with Cyrena."

"Sounds like you had a busy night. And here I was enjoying it with Sacagawea."

"Well, if tonight is anything like last night then you won't miss it."

In the Egyptian department, the two royals climbed out of their sarcophagus. Ahkmenrah was expecting Nubia to run to Cyrena like she did the night before, but to his surprise she did nothing. Instead she just stood there, staring at the ground.

"Nubia, are you all right?" Ahkmenrah prepared for her to snap.

"I'm sorry about last night. I shouldn't have acted the way I did."

"It's all right."

"No, it's not." Nubia looked at him. "I was filled with anger and wanted revenge, but I took it out on you. For that I am sorry."

"I forgive you."

"I want to stay in here tonight with you. I don't want to worry about Cyrena or anything else."

"I don't mind. I do want to ask you something. What did Cyrena say to you last night?"

When Cyrena woke up she started looking around the museum. She wasn't able to last night since she and Nubia were fighting. It was very different then what she was use to. She walked into the lobby, noticing the different exhibits. She made her way to the front door. She wanted to see what the world looks like today.

"You shouldn't go outside."

"Why not?" She asked, looking at the man on the horse.

"Because if you are outside at sunrise you turn to dust."

"Teddy, you shouldn't have told her that." Jed said. "We would be better off if she did."

"Then I'll make sure I'm in by sunrise."

"Hopefully you'll get lost."

"Keep it up and I'll take you out." Cyrena glared at Jed.

"I'd like to see you try."

"Do you forget how small you are?" Cyrena asked as she picked him up.

Cyrena then walked over to the door and pushed, but nothing happened. She then tried to pull, but again nothing happened.

"How do you work this thing? It's a door, correct? How hard is it to open a door?"

"I guess they didn't have locks in your time." Jed laughed.

"I order you to open this door."

"I don't take orders from anyone."

"Why don't we don't we take a walk around the museum." Teddy said before a fight started.

"Wonderful idea." Cyrena said as she put Jed down. Then she and Teddy walked off.

Rebecca arrived at the apartment building that Kendra was staying at. She wasn't sure if she would get any answers, but she wasn't going to give up. Rebecca knocked on the door and when Kendra opened the door she didn't seemed surprised to see her there.

"Ms. Hutman, what can I do for you?"

"You can stop acting nice for one. And you can tell me what you're really doing here."

"My being nice is not an act. Also I told you earlier what I am doing here."

"I don't believe it. How is it that Cyrena is the one who cursed Nubia and your museum suddenly decides to let us have her? I don't think its coincidence that you chose our museum."

"You're right, it's not. I have to give you credit. You're a lot smarter then I thought you were. Come in and tell you the real reason I'm here."

Rebecca walked in as she looked around. There were many papers scattered on the coffee table and books lay open on the couch and floor.

"You can move the books and papers. I'll go get you something to drink. What would you like? I have coke, tea or water."

"Water is fine."

"All right."

As Kendra went to get the drinks Rebecca moved some books so she could sit on the couch. Out of curiosity she looked at one of the books and was shocked at what she saw.

This chapter was full of mystery and questions haha. I hope you enjoyed it. And thanks to everyone who is reading and reviews. It means a lot.
