Although I wanted to disagree with her on returning to the museum for a mere unveiling party, I knew by now Molly was a determined and persistent person, human or otherwise. Whether I like it or not, Molly was determined to appear at the museum's unveiling of the mummy Sphinx tonight. However, before Molly was able to head toward the vanity to get dressed for the evening festivities, I instinctively put my hand on her shoulder, causing her to turn around and face me as I said, "However, if you're going to that party tonight, I'm coming with you."
A little surprised by my response, Molly couldn't help but ask, "....You're afraid of me being turned into nothing but a freakshow.....aren't you, Jacob?" "*sigh*....Molly, I.....I don't want to see you get hurt again. I mean, you were strapped to a chair and injected with godknowswhat by a bunch of bastards masquerading as circus performers, then transformed into something out of mere myth." I answered, kneeling down on one knee, putting myself at eye-level with my beloved Molly.
From there, shortly after I gently laid a left hand against Molly's right cheek, she raised her right paw-like hand and placed it over my hand, caressing it mildly out of loving compassion. I knew there that the Molly I fell in love with was still inside the entity that she has unwillingly become. Out of reassurance, she then planted a kiss on my lips, then receding away from me a little and said, "....Thank you, Jacob. Thank you."

Later that day, with a mere few hours away from the start of the unveiling at the museum, Molly was just nearly finished getting dressed up for tonight's festivities,which included wearing some Egyptian jewelry that had lapis lazuli in it, delivered by my cousin Julia as a gift of courtesy by the museum's curator, British Professor William Brooks. I haven't met him in-person, but both my mom and cousin have talked about him extensively.
As for what she was wearing, let's just say that the style is.....Ancient Egyptian. The dress was as white as ivory with a golden pattern to it on the sash-like belt, with the skirt of the dress split down the middle somewhat to promote leg movement, since the dress' skirt reached down almost to her fur-covered ankles, along with having a hole in the back for her tail to go through.
But when it came to the accessories given to her by the curator via Julia, Molly was wearing these semi-loose golden bracelets around her ankles, along with this large golden bracelet on her fur-covered right wrist, which had a scarab made out of lapis lazuli embedded into the bracelet, while on her left arm, she was wearing a golden bracelet clasped around her left bicep, which had these hieroglyphics engraved into the bracelet.
Around her neck, Molly wore a golden necklace with a medallion that looks like the Eye of Horus attached to the wide Egyptian necklace. Finally, she inevitably used an Egyptian eyeliner style on her eyes, completing the look of someone who have just stepped out of the past.
