"12:40.." I mumbled to myself.. I was supposed to be here like 6 hours ago. My plane ran late yesterday, my luggage with my confuter and sheets and some of my clothes, I almost got mugged in Heathrow airport, my taxi was late, its past midnight and now I have to go to some stupid dance wearing my stupid black dress and my high top black converse (well.. I don't have any other shoes except the low top ones.) I missed a full day of school, so now I don't even know what I'm up against till Monday, I'm going to walk into a dance that I don't know anybody.. But I was told to look for a girl named Mara Jaffrey. She supposedly the school representative and live at the house I will be staying in, I don't think I'm gunna like this chick.. if she's school rep, she must be an annoying nerd who does all her homework and doesn't stay up past her bed time and doesn't curse and.. I'm not gunna make much friends like this.. "ma'Am." the taxi driver called to me. "You can get out here and I will drop your bags at the house."
"oh, ok thank you very much. How much do I owe?"
" 37£." damn, is there some kind of metric conversion of this umm.
"You take credit cards? All I have is American money on me." I gave a faint smile.
"yes." he chuckle and I passed him my card. Well I can already tell I'm gunna have a fun time here! Yippidy do da day.. Yeah bullshit.. I don't even have any British currency on me. "Here we are." he passed me back my card and I shoved it back into my bag. I had opened the door and exited from the taxi. "Thank you." I waved as the cab drived way. I walked up and into the school, following the sound of music to an auditorium like room, except with no chairs, that looked like it was converted into their dance floor. Now where's this Mara girl? I walked around trying to look for someone, like a teacher who could point her out to me. No teachers.. Hmm.. You know what I think I like this school.. Our dances would be chaperoned with PTA members and staff. Yuck.. PTA.. Better not have that here. I asked a few people and they pointed her out to me. She was a small, dark haired girl, she looked Indian and was very pretty with her hair up in a bun and a few strands of hair falling on her face next to her side bangs. Oh.. I don't wanna go over anymore. She looks like she's having fun.. I don't wanna bother her. A few people bumped into me. "watch where you're going." one of them sneered. "sorry." they gave me a look and walked away. I finally walked over to her as tapped her on the shoulder. "are you Mara.?"
"Oh, yes I am. Can I help you?" she answered with a smile. Way too perky.. I don't like her.
"Umm, yeah, I just moved here and I was told to find you because you are school representative and I will be boarding at the same house as you as well."
"really? That great!" her smile got larger, if that was possible and turned to the blonde boy next to her. "Nina will probably be the most excited for another American!" I heard her whisper to him. Another.. How many more Americans can there be in a British boarding school? "Oh, I'm so sorry I didn't even ask, what's your name?"
"My name is Sarah."
"well Sarah, let me introduce you to everybody. This is Mick." she gestured towards the boy. He was shorter, not short but shorter, and had blonde hair and greenish eyes, he was stocky yet built and goofy, none of the less. "Hi." He jittered out , giving me a goofy smile. I shook his hand and then Mara grabbed my arm and led me over to a big blue eyed blonde haired hair, wearing a blue, one shouldered fitted dress and half up half down hair, maybe she's a bit.. I dunno.. Less happy than Mara.. No offence or anything. "Amber!" she called and pulled the girl aside. Amber lit up a smile "Amber this is Sarah, she is going to dorm with us at Anubis."
Her faced looked frozen and shocked. Why? Did I look that bad? "Sarah." she said blankly. "Your name is Sarah?" She asked confused. her gaze was a bit empty, a bit puzzled.. like she was thinking and waiting for the wires to click.
"Yeah." I nodded my head and giggled a bit. "Mara, I'll introduce her to the rest of the gang." she implied happily. "Oh alright." Mara responded. "Enjoy the rest of the dance!"
Amber grabbed my arm and we walks over to a skinny averaged height boy. "Alfie!" she squeaked. "This is Sarah." she elongated my name. His eyes got wide. "Is your name really Sarah?" he asked me confusingly, just like amber did. "yeah it is." his face lit up a bit.
"Your American as well."
"yeah."
"cool." a smile appeared.
"Alfie go get Nina and Fabian. Now!" she shoes him away. The boy ran away up and onto the stage, breaking away the eye locked couple. "So you're from America.?" amber asked.
"Yeah I am."
"that's So cool. Nina is American too, I don't know where though." she seems very uninterested and a bit lost. Well I guess every school needs its ditsy blonde. The couple came over hand and hand with Alfie behind them. "This is Sarah." he said jubilantly.
"Sarah." the girl said.. I think amber mentioned her name is Nina. "is your name really Sarah?" she was American.
"Your American as well?" I asked.
She gained a half smile. "Yeah I am.. But is your name really Sarah?" she asked again.
"Yeah it is why?"
She snapped out of her serious look. "Oh, because Sarah.. Is my.. Favorite name!" she exclaimed. She isn't a good liar. She looked at me confusingly, as did the brown haired boy next to her. Did I say something wrong? I didn't say much though. "Fabian, can you get Jerome over here?" she asked him. "sure." and he walked away with the shocked expression still lingering on his face. "umm so where you from she asked."
"I'm from Maine, where are you from."
"Pennsylvania."
"oh what part.?"
"Lancaster." she responded.
"Right by Hersey.!" I chirped.
"yeah! I love the bliss chocolate the best.!"
"I know.! It's so rich a creamy.!" the brown haired boy, Fabian, I think his name is came back over with a tall, dirty blonde haired boy that was messed up, but in a perfect way. He had thee most stunning dark blue eyes, the kind that you could just look at forever. They were a bit icy and cold, but I dunno.. "What is it Fabian, you dragged me over here for wh-"
"Jerome!" Nina interrupted. His eyes darted towards her and widened. "This is Sarah." she gestured towards me. I was much, much shorter than him. A little bit tinier than Mara. My hair was slightly wavy and black, extremely black, like a black tee shirt in a power outage. I look like an old Victorian doll, with green eyes. And I wore a black strapless cocktail dress that was ruffed at the bottom and a wristbands, those sweatband kinds of things, just around my left wrist except it hand a little metal brass knuckles sewn onto it, I wore it to hide an embarrassing birthmark, well I dunno if it's a scar or a birthmark, either or, it didn't matter. "Sarah." he finally sputtered out. He looked confused, just like the rest of them. "Well.. Amber popped. "Let's grab Patricia and go back to the house."
"Alf, go get Trixie and meet us back at the house." Jerome muttered to him. Alfie nodded and ran off. Why is everyone acting like this. This just makes me feel more like an outsider. I hope this isn't normal.. And I usually don't like normal, it's like a bad weird.. And I didn't even know there was a bad weird.! We all left the dance and out of the school. I saw the chain around Nina next. Wonder what the charm is. I couldn't get a good look at it while we ran back to the house. It kept bouncing back and forth as she ran. It looked familiar.. "Do we know what happened to victor?" Nina asked
"victor? Whoa, who's victor.?" I asked.
"I think he's still up in his office." Fabian responded. "Do they know your coming.?" my question was ignored
"victor is the caretaker of Anubis house." Jerome answered my question.
"Sarah. Do they know?" Nina asked hastily before I was able to respond to Jerome.
"Yeah I believe they should." I answered. What is going on? I mean this wasn't the kind of excitement I was hoping for. Well not right away, at least. We finally reached a great Victorian house, it was extremely large and had a grand exterior. They all rushed through the door and I stood in the center of the foyer. "Wow it's even better than the outside." I whispered softly to myself. "Well I wouldn't be to quickly to judge." Jerome mumbled. I looked at Nina, Fabian, and amber running up the staircase and into the door at the right of the well. But.. The railing is what caught my.. Well eye.. How ironic.. It was the outline of the eye of Horus.. "Eye of Horus." I whispered again to myself.
"Who are you?" I heard a voice say behind me. I flipped around staring at the auburn colored haired girl with colorful steaks. She looked like a tacky Goth, but.. similar style to me,, god,, If I keep judging everyone like this I'm have no friends what so ever. "oh I'm-"
"that's Sarah!" Alfie announced.
"No way! Sarah is a dead 93 year old! And she's not even British!" I totally ignored her remark.
"Umm.. Alfie. What's that? Carves into the railing poles?"
"Oh that's called the eye of-"
"Horus" I interrupted.
"Yeah! How'd you know that?" Alfie asked all smiles.
"Nina!" the girl called running up the stairs.
"Patricia.!" Alfie called running up after her.
"What is all the noise.!" Jerome yelled. I spun back on my heals to see him standing still in full tuxedo. "Is that the eye of Horus.?" I asked abruptly. He eyes got wide again.
"Yes. Why?"
"I've seen it before.. Umm one more question.. Who is Sarah?" who is this Sarah person that Patricia mentioned. I am certainly not 93 years old and I am not dead either.
"Why are you here?" he asked avoiding my question.
"Why should I answer your question if you didn't answer mine.?"
"because I outrank you. Now why are you here." he got a step closer.
"What's the charm on Nina's necklace?" I had to ask , it was bothering me. I also got a step closer. "Is it the eye of Horus?" it was quiet for a moment.
"how do you know that.?" he voice got deeper and angrier, his eyes did really look like ice right now.
"Because.." I took off my wristband. "It's the mark on my wrist."
He looked down at my wrist, eyes wide at the curved diamond shape with the circle inside. The eye of Horus. My mom told me never to tell anyone or things would go real bad real fast. People would manipulate me and try to kill me to get what they want. She told me the story on how one day I would meet the girl with the locket and how we would have to work together to save they would and make the curse existent. "Sarah!" Nina called. I slipped the wristband back on. "Don't tell them please! They're gunna hate me. Or think I'm crazy! There is a lot more behind the scar that I don't even know about just please don't tell them.. Not yet.. Nina has the locket that my mom used to tell me stories about the locket , just don't tell anyone! Please! Jerome, please." I pulled on the colas of Jerome's tuxedo and looked him straight in eyes, begging him not to tell them. "Sarah!" Nina called again. "Oh please Jerome! Please?" he closed his eyes and rubbed his face. "Alright, alright."
"thank you!" I hugged him out of pure excitement. Only one other person knew besides my mom and now Jerome, and that was my friend Marley.. she told me how I must be the real life harry potter, she even thought I could do spells. Which I couldn't do any sort of spells. But after I told Marley, things got different.. she expected a lot more out of me. Me to just do everything better by hundred and ten percent and soon I told her to stop or something bad was going to happen to her. I really didn't want to impose a true threat on her, and but of course, she just kept bothering me and then one day, she didn't come to school, and didn't text me, and I hadn't seen her the weekend before either. and I thought she didn't want to be friends with me anymore. But when I got home, she was sitting there on the couch in my living room, I didn't have time to ask her where she had been or why she didn't come to school because my came in the room. " honey." She said to me softly. " Marley, she got into a car accident.-"

"but she's fine." I smiled, I knew because she was sitting on the couch in front of me.

"no.." my mom said even quieter. "no, she umm.. she had passed away in the hospital this morning along with her father. I'm-"

"no your lying.!" I yelled " she right there on the couch.!" My mother shook her head.

"no.. she's not really there Sarah.. but I know you can see her.."

"mommy my wrist hurts." She took of the wristband and my scar was all bloody and red. "Marley.!" I yelled. "Marley.!"

I only saw Marley a few times after that.. I wasn't much different that if she was really there. She just could touch anything. Soon she said she had to go, her dad needed her to come home. I didn't know what she meant at first but I got it a few years later when I met another little boy who come and scared me at first but my mom just said I had to show him the light.. And that's exactly what I did. I didn't know what it had to do with the scar, and neither did my mom, but she knew there was so sort of connection. I unlocked from the hug. "there is so much more that you're going to find out about that little scar. " he said to me stone faced. Nina finally came down the stairs. "Sarah!" she called again.

"Nina, can I see your locket?" I grabbed the charm on the chain and rubbed my thumb against it. "The eye of Horus.." I whispered.

it was a bit shakey and all over the place, but thats the main idea. please reveiw and everyting.! kthanksbye.! 33
