Reaching over I clicked the TV in my room off, stretching as I sat on my bed. "I used to love this series as a kid. Too bad there aren't anymore episodes." I muttered to myself, clicking off the bedroom light before I pulled the covers of my bed over me.

Sometime during the night the TV clicked back on the screen glowing but I just rolled over, thinking I was still dreaming. For a few seconds there was a low buzzing noise but that I ignored as well though when a light flew out of the tv coming to rest several inches above my head I finally groaned, tossing back the covers before I sat running a hand through my hair. Still half asleep I rubbed at my eyes not even realizing the light had settled on me before I started to glow.

Immediately afterwards I started to scream, my body jolted by a series of painful spasms that made my back arch. The pain only ended when I finally lost consciousness a groan escaping as I started to fall backwards.

For the second time that night I woke with a groan though the aching limbs were a new feature. "Oww. Never had a dream with actual pain before." I mumbled and at either side I heard whispering. "I thought I turned off the TV when I went to bed tonight."

"Who are you and what do you think you're doing lying on the floor?" A man asked and I groaned, trying to sit until my body protested the slightest movement. Giving up at moving for the time being I waited in the hope that someone would help me up.

"Rath, be nice." Another voice scolded, a woman's voice this time and the previous one just snorted, obviously still annoyed at me for taking space up. "Maybe you could, I don't know, offering her a hand up?"

"Why should I? She's taking up space and..." He stopped speaking when I cracked open my eyes, narrowing them once I found the source of the voice and the attitude. "Oh you're awake. Now could you please move?"

"Hmph. I can barely move for your information whoever you are." I growled at him, my vision still blurry though as it cleared I blinked wondering if this was a very realistic dream. I must have still been staring because the source of the man voice finally cleared his throat at me.

"Nefer-Tina, is it just my eyes or is there a female mummy lying on the floor?" Rath asked, peering at me with two wide eyes.

"Female...mummy?" I asked feeling very lost until someone finally decided to help me up and I yelped my back protesting the sudden movement as I was lifted to my feet. I wobbled a little blinking as I stared at Rath and Neferi-Tina who stared right back. "I know I'm going to regret asking this but did you say female mummy?" I repeated and Rath just sighed, pointing to a TV sitting in the corner of the room. Shaking my head I headed towards it only stopping when I caught sight of my reflection.

Instead of my usual shoulder-length dark brown hair and pale pink skin I could see grey skin poking out from beneath my bandages. Even my hair had changed to pure white and when I backed away from the TV my eyes wide Rath just rolled his eyes at me. "You would think she had never seen her own reflection." He commented and I whirled around, ignoring the pain in my back as I glared at Rath.

"For your information I went to bed human." I snapped at him, lifting up my hands to find that they were wrapped up as well just my fingers poking out. "Okay this is the most realistic dream I've had. Could have done without that bright light or the pain." I added, stretching my arms above my head to ease the pain in my back. "I've never worn anything like this to bed." I muttered, looking down at the black and white cloth hanging down over my waist.

"Bright light?" Rath muttered and Nefer-Tina stared at him, raising one of her eyebrows as Rath rubbed at his chin. "It couldn't have...well it shouldn't have done this."

"Rath, did you cause this?" Nefer-Tina asked, raising her voice as I walked directly up to Rath who blinked back at me when I grabbed him by the bandages surrounding his neck and Nefer-Tina bit back a laugh as I yanked him towards me.

"You had something to do with this didn't you?" I shouted and he cringed, pushing my hands away which did nothing but make me even angrier as Rath adjusted his bandages suddenly unable to look me in the eyes. "Tell the truth." I insisted as he continued to stare at me.

"Alright so I may have made a...slight miscalculation in one of my spells. But I'm perfectly capable of fixing this just give me time to reread that passage." Rath finally sighed, waving his hand like it wasn't a big deal as I tilted my head back to glare at the mummy.

"Oh so this is a slight miscalculation?" I repeated, waving my hand at my bandages and grey skin. "I remember going to bed perfectly normal and the next thing I know I'm waking up aching all over and dead. How is that a slight mistake?" I countered and Rath, for the first time since he had woken up as a mummy, found himself speechless.

"Wait until Ja-Kal and Armon get a load of this, Rath." Nefer-Tina laughed as I fiddled with the bandages on my left sleeve.
