A/N: This is my first fan fic I've ever posted. Please be nice about it! I hope you like it. I put a lot of work into it and tried to make it as awkward and funny as possible. I got the idea after reading other fics about Victor having love potions and stuff in the cellar, but I approached it completely different. Enjoy!

Disclaimer: I do not own House of Anubis.. unfortunately. I wish I could come up with a story that amazing!

Everyone was doing homework when Trudy annonced supper was ready. They all sat down to eat and Trudy told them she would be going out tonight.

"Oh, lovlies, I'll be going out at about eight o'clock, I'm going to dinner with Fabian's Uncle Ade," Trudy announced. "I think Victor has to go out tonight as well, so you all will be responsible for going to bed at a resonible time."

It was Mick's last night before heading back to Australia, he and Joy were sitting beside each other chatting. She decided she was going to ride to the train station to see Mick off when it was time for him to leave. Mick was kind of anxious to leave because it was a bit awkward sitting at the table with Mara and Jerome.

Seven-thrity was fast approching, that is when Mick was leaving as his train left at eight. Everyone said their goodbyes and Mick and Joy left for the train station. They all went back into the living room to relax and wait for Joy to return. Nina and Fabian were reading a book together, Amber was looking at herself in a mirror while Alfie tried talking to her, Patricia and Eddie were listening to Sick Puppies on his iPod, and Mara and Jerome were talking at the dining room table.

Down in the cellar

Victor was attempting to brew elixir again. He wanted to be absolutely certain he got the recipie correct before adding the tears of gold that he found in the ring. He added a purple liquid to a test tube filled with red liquid. He then took a beaker with a blue-green liquid off of the bunsen burner and added some to the test tube. He then took a tiny sip before gagging.

"BLASTED!" he shouted before throwing the test tube across the room. He wasn't paying attetion to where it went so he didn't notice it fly into the open doors of the furnace where he had just added fresh coal.

Back in the living room

"Well, dearies, I'm off to have dinner. I'll be back around ten or so! Bye everyone," Trudy said.

"Bye Trudy!" everyone said together.

"Have fun," Nina added.

About five minutes later, Victor came up from the cellar and went to his office. He returned a minute later with his coat.

"As you know, I have to step out tonight. Seeing as Trudy is out as well, you will be responisble for being in bed at a reasonable time. Stay out of my office and no going down into the cellar or there will be consequences." He turned to leave.

They all just continued what they were doing before when Mara spoke up.

"Does anyone smell that? Its a strange odor in the room."
