Alrightie! This is my first story on here. It's about a trip…. That Anubis House goes on… But to find out where they have to play a little game. Muahaha… It will be mostly in 3rd person. It will focus on Amber. I don't usually write about Amber, but for some reason she's easy to write for me and she's easy to begin a story with. I hate starting stories…. Its so awkward. Just like, "Uhm… Blah blah." Then you get to the good part finally. It's hard to explain…

Disclaimer: Dancing Kitten 16 does not own House of Anubis. But she wishes she does.

Amber Millington stood at her locker, taking out the books she would need for drama class and free period. I'll need my Fabina scrapbook and photos, and magazines, and….

"Don't forget your play script this time, Amber!" Nina called as she left her locker and began down the hall. Ah, yes, my play script! Amber snatched the tiny booklet and shut her locker.

She walked down the hall confidently in her school uniform, her luscious blonde locks French braided, top-brand, designer make-up blending in perfectly with her skin tone. Everyone aspires to be Amber Millington. Daddy's girl. Rich. Beautiful. She was like fancy pink piping on the edge of a cake. No, she was more like the pretty fondant rose. Everybody wanted a slice of her.

She strutted into the drama room and took a seat next to her boyfriend, Alfie Lewis. "Hi beau." She said, setting her books down on the table in front of them.

"Hey, Ambs. Guess what?" Alfie asked, holding his hands behind his back.

"What?" Amber asked. Did he make me a heart shaped banana sandwich again? Ugh, that was so disgusting… Amber cringed.

Alfie put his hands in front of him, revealing a single crisp, fresh pink rose. "I got it for you!" He smiled at his accomplishment. "It hurt to take the thorns out." He shuddered, thinking of his thorn-infested hands from earlier.

"Oh Alfie! Thank you!" She planted a little kiss on his right cheek. He grinned widely. He loved Amber's kisses: soft and delicate, yet as vibrant as fireworks.

Just then, Mr. Winkler walked in like always. In his hands he held the play script. Good thing Nina reminded me to bring it, Amber thought.

"Hello, class. Today I have an announcement," Mr. Winkler said. Immediately everyone began to buzz over the announcement. What was it?

Maybe a new student? Mara and Joy thought.

Was there a project due today? Alfie and Jerome worried.

Hmm, I think he's going to give us a project. Nina and Fabian looked at each other and nodded.

UGH, OH MY GOD, TELL US ALREADY! Patricia and Eddie screamed silently in their minds.

Amber wasn't paying much attention. She was examining her perfect French tips, making sure each and every edge was round, making sure there were no air bubbles in the dried white polish, making sure-

"We will be going on a class trip," Mr. Winkler announced. OK, um, where? Amber thought, rolling her eyes.

"We will be going on a class trip," Mr. Winkler continued, "but not as a class."

What? Is that even possible? How can we go on a class trip if we're not going as a class? Why even call it a class trip then? Just save the time and call it a trip. Jeez Mr. Winkler, jeez!

Apparently the rest of the class was just as confused as Amber. They had begun to silently whisper among themselves. "I wonder what he means?" "Is that even logical?" "Wait… so where are we going?"

"Let me rephrase that. Everybody in here will go on a trip, with adult supervision, in a group of 9- not counting the supervisors- to a location that will be revealed later. Now, if everyone from your house is in this class right now, please stand up." Mr. Winkler said. Mara stood up first, then Nina and Fabian, then Eddie and Patricia, then Joy, then Jerome and Alfie, and then Amber.

"Perfect. Anubis House residents, you will go as a group. Trudy will be your supervisor. To find out where you are going, you will go on a scavenger hunt. Trudy has your list. You will be excused from the rest of your school day for the hunt and packing. You leave tomorrow at 3 for Heathrow Airport. Your flight leaves at 6 AM." Anubis House was already out the door.

Amber was struggling to keep up with her friends in her high heels. Eventually, she took them off and sped in front of her friends, her pale fingers undoing her braid, letting the wind fly through her hair. She felt the Earth between her toes. She felt free, and she loved it. But, a girl of her high standard cannot go around barefoot and free. No, she must be poised and civilized at all times. Amber reminded herself this, the fun draining out of her. She slowed down.

She put on her heels again and conducted banter with Nina and Patricia. You know, Amber Millington isn't so dumb. She is really smart, but she can't let anybody know. Super smart people never seem to have boyfriends. Except for Nina, but Fabian wasn't exactly Amber's type of boyfriend.

When the large group reached the house, they all burst in and began to look for Trudy. Alfie found her first. She was in the kitchen, polishing dishes. She gladly handed over a pile of scavenger hunt lists she had on the counter.

Anubis House Scavenger Hunt List

All of the items on this list have something to do with your vacation destination. All of the items will be hidden IN Anubis House.

1. A pair of skis

2. A Northern Yellow Spotted Turtle shell

3. A map of New York

4. A kayaking oar

5. A cotton-candy flavored candy stick

6. A bottle of sunscreen

7. A golf ball

8. A hiking backpack

9. A walking stick (not the bug, an actual stick)

10. A packet of hot chocolate

When you finish, you have to use the items to figure out where you are going. When you think you know, bring the items to Trudy. After 5 tries Trudy will reveal your destination.

Amber studied the list for a moment. Suddenly, everyone began to run in different directions, searching for the items. Confused, Amber looked around and followed Nina up into their room. Nothing at ALL seemed out of place.

From what Amber saw, it was going to be a LONG day.

Wrap! Sorry it's a little short, I got lazy. Puah.
