My moon - a Moon knight story

Chapter 4: the night shift

We were finished eating lunch then we heard a phone ringing.
"Is that you're phone or my phone?" I ask him.
"Probably mine, let me go get it just a second." He says pushing his chair and running to his phone that was on his bed.
He picked up the phone and saw that his boss, Donna was calling.
"Weird." He says to me before picking up.
"Hey Steven, glad you responded to my 3rd call." She says clearly pissed off.
"Sorry, I was eating lunch with my girlfriend but what is it?" He replies.
"I need you to finish the inventory that you didn't finish yesterday." Donna told him.
"Oh ok then, I will be at the museum in 10 minutes! See you later Donna!" Steven said.
"Bye Steven." She says before hanging up.
"I got to go to work now darling! I will be back somewhere around 20:00 or 21:00 pm! Ok?" He asks.
"Yep! That's fine! Have a great day at work love!" I say kissing him goodbye.
Before he went to the door, he went to put his dishes in the dish washer so I didn't have to do it.
"You are the sweetest Steven! Thank you and hope you have fun at work!" I say as he touched the door.
"I don't know if fun is the right word." He is laughing. "Love you Y/n! See you tonight!" He says waving to me until he closes the door and leaves for the museum.

Steven's pov:
I arrived at the museum. The museum was not open today but Donna was waiting for me so she could open the door. She opened the door and said:
"You lock the door when you are done and only stay in the storage room. No leaving until your job is done. Ok?"
"Yes Donna." I say as she tossed me the keys.
Donna left as I entered the museum.
I was heading to the staff room so I could go to the basement for the inventory check.
A couple minutes past, I was in the basement.
I took my phone out of my pocket and opened Apple Music so I could turn on some music.
I knew i wasn't aloud to put on music but I was alone and bored so I turned on the song
A man without love by Engelbert Humperdinck.
I stored the hippopotamus goddess in a box with the things I put on the shelves and reorganized the rest of the inventory.
I replayed the song when I came back upstairs.
On my phone, it told me it was 19:00 pm already. It was pretty dark out, and there were not too many lights in the museum so I tried to light up the most I could.
I was storing some candies at the register then heard a loud noise.
"HELLO?" I shouted.
No answer.
"Maybe I'm just crazy." I mutter to myself.
I store the last of the candie in the box at the register then hear the same noise again.
I go to investigate the source of the sound.
It was at the exposition. I looked around and at first see nothing.
"Hello...? I can hear you can you hear me?" I ask the anonymous sound maker.
The lights were closing slowly with every step I took.

I hear the noise, but this time I saw a dog liked creature. It had green eyes and was very tall.

I screamed and hid behind a stand with some old Egyptian sculpture.
I heard through the intercom, it was Arthur harrow.
"Hello Steven from the gift shop. Tell me what you know and you will not be ripped appart." He says.
I threw my bag a further beside me.
The creature roared and attacked the bag almost immediately after it landed there.
I take my chance too run away but knocked down a vase.
I caught it but it was too late, it had seen me.
"FUCK!" I scream as the creature roars fast towards me.
I run as fast as I can. I took a shelf and knocked it down too try and buy me some time but it did not work too much.
I try every door I can with my employee card but doesn't work.
I managed to fit into a pretty big bathroom.
I start to freak out.
"Oh god." I say walking backwards.
I turn my head and look in the mirror.
"Steven.... Steven, I can save us. But I can't have you fightin' me this time." He says.
I turn around confused.
"You need to give me control. You understand?" He asks.
"No, what... Control of what? What are you talking about?" I ask my reflection.
"That thing is about to break through the door. We're out of time." My reflection says going forward the door.
I stay there frozen, not wanting to do anything.
"STUPID. NO! NO. THIS IS NOT REAL. " I scream hitting my face.
"Alright, listen to me. Look at me. Look at me!" He says.
"THIS IS NOT REAL." I say one last time out of disbelief.
"This is real. I'm real." He says.
"NO. YOU'RE NOT REAL." I say.
"Yes. Steven. You gotta give me control, it's the only way." He says.
"Oh god. Oh god. I'm gonna die. I'm gonna die. I'm gonna-" I say.
"STEVEN LOOK AT ME." He says more arrogantly.
I turn my head to I can face the mirror.
"You're not gonna die. Let me save us." He asked.
I looked at him, still not believing this. I turn my head and looked in front of me. I stared at the ground and nodded.
Slowly I start to feel, disconnected from this moment. I roll my eyes and black out again.

Marc's pov:
I got the body and transformed into the suit. As I was doing that, the jackal broke down the door and jumped on me.
Shortly after, I had finished transforming and started hitting it until it's death.

I had finished of the jackal, so I turn back into normal Marc.
"This place is a mess." I mutter to myself. "Oh no, what time is it?"
I look around to see if Steven had thought of wearing his watch. He did.
The watch read:
7:30.
"Shit, I can't clean this. Well, i got to leave for his flat. Oh wait, his girlfriend will know. Whatever." I say laughing it off not thinking Y/n would realize that I wasn't Steven.
I walk out of the bathroom, like nothing happened.

I realize that there is a security camera above me. I looked directly into it, and left the scene.
***********************************
A couple minutes later, I lock the museum doors, like Donna asked Steven too do.
I turn around and admire the town in the dark.
All quiet. More quiet than I've seen a town be.
I was heading to the flat Steven has, enjoying the silence of the small town in London.

Y/n's pov:
I was watching tv, waiting for Steven to come back.
I was getting tired of the couch, so I make my way to the bed. I lay on our bed and watch my phone for a good 20 minutes.
***************************
20 minutes after, I hear the door and see a familiar face.
Steven was back.
"Hey babe! How was work?" I say coming up to him.
"It was great thanks for asking....love." He responds.
Why was he acting so weird? His facial expressions were not the same either.
"Are you ok? You seem weird. Do you want coffee or something?" I ask him.
"I'm fine babe. Um. What do you want to do?" He asks.
"I don't know. Maybe drink some wine?" I ask.
"Certainly." He replies.
*******************************
Steven was definitely not even himself. He didn't have the same accent, the same face. Was I crazy? Was I just too drunk that I heard something else?
I wasn't sure, but something I knew was that we had fun together.

It was now 10:00 o'clock, so we decided to go to bed.
I didn't know what happened, but I will ponder that question later....
