As Octavius stormed away from Jane, he felt an emptiness drop into his stomach and an anger flare in the rest of his body. He knew exactly who told Jane! That no good jealous cowboy Jedidiah... Oh, he was going to get what he deserved. He-
"Hey!" Octavius stopped walking, looking down directly in front of him. A spot was on the floor about four inches high, and Jed's face popped out from underneath the hat.
Octavius's eyes doubled. "You!"
"What about me?" Jed asked.
"You told Jane that I was small!" Octavius shouted accusingly.
"Well you sure wasn't gonna do it," Jed said smartly.
Octavius's chest swelled angrily. "You're a jealous little freak!" "
And you're a giant liar! You didn't even tell her about me!"
"Why would I waste my time with Jane talking about you?" Octavius spat childishly. He folded his arms over his chest, looking away momentarily.
"Well even if you didn't talk about me, why didn't you tell her about the entire Roman Empire?"
"I did!" Octavius said.
"Oh, did you mention that you abandoned it?" Jed asked, getting under Octavius skin quickly. "How about that the entire Empire is going crazy without you there?!"
Guilt flooded over Octavius suddenly, and he pouted immaturely. "Well if you're so great, why don't you look after them?"
"I guess I'll have to since you can't," Jed said dangerously. "I don't have to be big to be better than you."
Octavius was stung. "Why you little-"
"I'd rather be a little leader than a big idiot."
"That's it." Octavius raised his foot and said, "I am so stepping on you right now."
Jed started screaming as Octavius lowered his foot. He shut his eyes tight, thinking this was the end. But, when the looming shadow overcame him, it vanished. Jed became suspicious and went to open his eyes, but a sharp pain drove into his foot. "OW!!!"
He opened his eyes, and the Roman general stood right beside him. Four inches tall again. "What the heck's wrong with you?!" Jed shouted. He stomped on Octavius's foot. "
Ow! That's not fair! I've only got sandals and you've got leather boots!"
"Deal with it, Octo- Hey! You're small again!" Jed suddenly realized. Octavius's eyes went wide with terror, and he looked at himself in comparison with Jed.
His mouth fell open. "What on earth?!"
OoO
"Thank you pharaoh," Cecil Fredrick said as he Gus, and Reginald stood before the tied up pharaoh.
"You won't get away with this!" cried the Ahkmenrah.
Reginald laughed at this, "Oh yeah, how so?"
"Well me for instance," a voice said from behind. The three turned to find Jane who had been watching them since they had tied up the pharaoh in the Egyptian room.
"It's one of the newbie's," Gus stated as he and Reginald began to circle her. "What's your name newbie?"
"My name is Jane Austen," she said. "Now give me the tablet and release the pharaoh now!"
They did not listen, before long Reginald tied up her wrist so she could not get away. "Jane Austen," Cecil said, "wow…I must say you were the last person I ever thought I would run into here."
"Let her go!" Ahkmenrah yelled struggling in his ropes.
"Oh we will let her go, we will let the both of you go," Gus said evilly. "Over the bridge!"
"What!" Jane and Ahkmenrah screamed in unison.
"See Miss Austen, a year ago we tried stealing the tablet like we are now. We of course we did not succeed. But tonight we shall be victorious!" Cecil exclaimed.
Gus got up in the pharaohs face, "You by chance haven't seen Larry? Have you?"
Shaking his head, no. "That is because he is in jail!" Reginald laughed, "We made it seem as if he had stolen money!"
Cecil chuckled. "That poor fool! He actually believed we wouldn't get revenge!"
"How dare you! Larry did what was right!" Jane yelled.
The trio was laughing hard now, "Come on Reginald we have to go take care of these two. Gus, will you be able to burn down the museum in time?"
"Don't worry girl scouts!" Gus said. Lifting boxes of gasoline and matches. "It will be down in flames before you can say, 'fire…'"
Jane and Ahkmenrah went pale, "N-no…You can't do this!" Jane cried almost in tears at the thought.
"Yes, we can!" Cecil stated.
"This is insane, I mean what did we ever do to you that would cause this madness?!" Ahkmenrah asked.
Cecil was about to answer when, Jane elbowed Reginald in the stomach. She ran as fast as she could screaming, "Help! Help! Please help!" Not a second later people were coming.
"Jane what is wrong!" a small voice screamed, it was a frantic Octavius.
"They are—." Jane began suddenly her eyes rolled back then shut as she fell into Reginald's arms. He had hit her extremely hard in the back of the head. Cecil came out a torch of fire in one hand the pharaoh on the other. Gus was preparing the oil in the Egyptian room.
"Jane! Jane!" Octavius screamed. Getting madder and madder that Reginald had hurt her.
Cecil and Reginald ran out as more came many of the exhibit's following them. Unfortunately the two escaped; unknown too many Nicky, Attila, and now Octavius and Jedidiah were after them.
"FASTER! FASTER!" Octavius screamed from Nicky's pocket. "We have to save Jane!!"
…
Meanwhile at the museum Teddy and Mark Twain were taking care of Gus. Gus the poor man did not get too far in starting the fire. The Civil war men had captured him. Teddy and Mark were questioning the man.
"Where are the two others going with Jane and Ahkmenrah?!" Teddy bellowed.
"What are they going to do with them?!" Mark screamed.
"How long have you been planning this?!" Teddy yelled.
The rest of the questioning went like that the two men screaming. And Gus starting to cry like a little girl.
…
Nicky ran as fast as his legs would carry him while Octavius was yelling at him to run faster. As well keeping up with Attila was hard enough! Jed though remained fairly quiet and calm. This to Nicky was a sign that the world itself was at an end!
"Hurry before someone sees us!" Cecil ordered as Reginald laid a still unconscious Jane down to tie the weight on her so she would go down faster.
Octavius and Jed jumped out of Nicky's pocket and ran to Jane. Attila on the other hand ran screaming waving his weapons around in the air. "Booobalaluuuietoo!!!" Attila chanted grabbing Reginald, and taking him by the head. Then bashing his head against Reginald's, knocking the man out.
Attila looked up from his last pray, Cecil was running away. That did not stop the Hun, from running after him.
Meanwhile Nicky had released Ahkmenrah from his ropes. The pharaoh had retrieved his tablet which Cecil had dropped when running away. When his hands touched the tablet, Octavius became tall again.
Octavius took Jane in his arms getting ready to carry her back. Before though he carefully opened his hand for Jed to come on, Jedidiah came on his hand as they walked back to the museum.
Ahkmenrah looked at Nicky, as Attila came back grinning. "Should we bring the two with us?" the pharaoh asked.
"Nah, this time I don't think they will be coming back, and if they do we will send Attila on them!"
OoO
Octavius looked at his love one last time. Jane was being taken care of by Sacagawea.
Octavius held Jed in one hand as they walked in silence to the diorama room. Placing Jed inside, "I am sorry Jedidiah…you know for almost stepping on you, and everything."
Smiling light heartedly at his friend, "I am sorry too."
Octavius shrunk back to his original height knowing this would be his height for the rest of time. Walking to the Roman diorama, feeling the worst ever in his life.
"I am sorry Octavius," Jedidiah whispered, "for everything." As Octavius walked away.
