Chapter 1: Receiving a Job for the Holidays
I have been searching for a job for months, I last worked for a T-Mobile, but I was fired for lack of work. I had heard of the recent job listing at the National Museum of History just last night, I was watching the evening news. I had visited this museum back when the nightguard was a man named Larry Daley, I had got to meet each exhibit through this man. I really liked each one, but the ones that pulled me in most were the miniatures and the pharoh. Every visit I would secretly imagine myself getting together with the pharoh, Akmenrah, as I knew I would never become a miniature woman.
Anyhow, I enter the museum this evening and see the director, he sees me and says, "Welcome, miss, here to see the exhibits?" I shake my head and say, "No, sir. I'm here for the job offering.", he smiles, takes my hand, and leads me out of the lobby, "Our previous nightguard, Larry Daley is the one offering the positions, so head downstairs and meet him in the nightguard changing room." I nod, and then head that way.
After ten minutes I am talking to Larry, he quickly recognized me from my visits, "Ah Rebecca, it's a pleasure to see you again. So are you here for the role of nightguard?" I smile and nod, he tells me, "Well let's get started. First off, you'll need these.", he hands me a flashlight, a key-ring, and some papers, I nod and kindly take them. He then asks me, "I gotta know if you can keep a secret, a major one.", I nod, and he whispers this in my left ear, "You know how the exhibits seemed to be alive?" I nod, he then continues, "Well they ARE alive, thanks to the tablet in the pharoh, Akmenrah's tomb." I actually tell him that I believed they were alive, which surprises him.
I then ask, "Do I start tonight?", he puts his hands on my shoulders, and says with a nod, "You sure do. I hope you enjoy this career." I ask him this before he exits the room, "Wait! Are any of the exhibits.. You know..single?", he gives me a confused look, I'm guessing my question seemed out there, "Err well.. I believe Jed, Octavius, Ahkmenrah, and Lancelot are.. Are you still looking for romance?" I nod shyly, he then says, "Just don't bring up romance right away to any of them, they may get upset..especially Jed."
He then leaves the room, allowing me to change in private. After a couple hours, I'm walking around the museum after all the visitors had left as well as Dr. McPhee. I enter the lobby, hear giant foot-steps approach me, I then look at the T-rex stand, and don't see the T-rex, I gasp, "Where did it go? It's too massive to move..right?" I start looking around, soon spotting the dino in front of a water fountain getting a drink, I hold back another gasp, I knew the exhibits would come to life, but I didn't expect the dinosaur skeleton to come alive too.
Soon my flashlight falls out of my hand, hitting the floor, getting the giant dinosaur's attention, I look his way, then look down at the papers Larry gave me, I see the first thing on it, "Number One..Throw the bone.", I begin thinking, "Bone? What bone?" Suddenly I hear a yell coming into the room, "COME ON, OCKIE! REXY SEEMS BORED!", I then look in that direction seeing a radio-controlled race-car entering. This car gets parked in front of me, I look down to see the mini Roman general and mini cowboy, who says, "Well if it isn't our beautiful friend."
I blush a bit, I found this line to be so cute, I then hear the Roman say, "Hello miss Rebecca. Why are you here after hours?" I then kneel down, telling the two that I'm filling in for nightguard from now on, the cowboy shouts out, "Woo-wee doggie! Are we lucky! I always wanted to see ya after dark!" I blush more, the cowboy then says, "Miss, no worries, we'll play with Rexy for a while, ya need to check on everyone else." I nod and watch as the car drives away with the dino following. I then hear a man saying, "Bully! If it isn't our constant visitor, what brings you here?"
My blush goes away, as I turn to face this voice seeing Teddy, "Hey Teddy, well I'm the new nightguard." He pats my shoulder four times, "Welcome to the team, miss. We've been awaiting our new nightguard. I hope nothing bad happens tonight." I then hear another voice behind me, "Ah our friend, Rebecca. Remember me?", I smile, turn around to see the pharoh, and say before asking if I could hug him, "Hi Ahkmenrah." Once I asked to hug him, he nods, smiles, and tells me calmly, "You may hug me, I accept hugs from many folks." I then wrap my arms around him, and he does the same, I then hear him whisper, "What are you doing here, my dear?"
I pull back, look in his eyes seeing curiosity, I place a hand on his chest where his heart is, which makes him blush slightly, "I've accepted to be the new nightguard.", "Ah so you shall be our guardian from..Err, where do you hail from?", "I live in New York City.", "Well then you're our guardian from New York City."
