Chapter 1
The warm feeling of the sun blazed down on Mick's sweaty face as he came to a halt in front of his adopted home, Anubis House. He had woken up early in the morning to take a jog around the school to relieve his stress, but ended up running more than he expected to run. By the time he was back, he was drenched, and he longed for a good, long shower. All he needed to do was get past the few steps under the Saturday sun and into the house. He didn't get very far though. As he was about to press his knuckles against the majestic door, he spotted a figure covered in black, sprawled across the floor in front of the bushes. He couldn't see much, only full head of brown locks lying on the ground in front of the boy's unseen face.
"Strange," was all he could mutter at the sight before him. Mick considered striding over to the boy to see if he could help, but thought it better to get appropriate help. He turned his attention to the door yet again and knocked quickly. He wasn't surprised to see the cheery house-mother, Trudy, staring out at him from inside the house.
"What's the matter, dear?" She looked up at his worried face.
"Trudy, there's this boy lying in front of the house. Come quick!" Mick blurted out. His words came out all jumbled together.
"Speak clearly, Mick. Now, can you please repeat?"
Mick explained the situation to Trudy a bit more clearly. Her face shifted with emotion as he finished telling his story. By the end of the tale, she almost knocked the athlete over as she bustled over to the unconscious boy. "Oh dear," she frowned at the boy, feeling his pulse. "We better get him inside."
Loving that he was getting another work out this morning, Mick volunteered to pick up the boy and take him inside. He slowly lifted him up, and with help from the house-mother, he managed to get into the building and drop the boy on the couch. He hadn't stirred a bit in those two minutes.
A few hours later, the smell of a steaming cup of hot chocolate and a bowl of soup, wafted through the air. The housemates had all walked into the room a while before to see what was happening. They all buzzed with excitement as they ate, talking about the new kid that Mick had found outside of the house. No one knew who he was or why he was here.
Finally, Victor walked into the dining room and all chatter stopped. They had been expecting him to come down with the boy so they could ambush him with questions, but now that he was here, they didn't dare say a thing. Victor strode over to an empty chair and motioned for the boy to come in and sit on it. This chair was originally supposed to be for the returning Joy, but no one had heard of her since the day of the prom. Nina was quite frankly glad that Joy had not returned.
The boy looked down as he slurped up his food. His brown hair fell into his face, and large, dark glasses covered his porcelain skin. He had muscle to him, but his face looked sweet, sort of calm. The boy seemed to be a quiet kid, and everyone stared at each other, wondering who would be the first to ask him something.
Finally, Nina piped up. "So..what's your name?"
He looked up from his food and stared at Nina. She gave him a smile and he returned it. "I'm Duncan."
All of the students muttered a quick welcome and then continued eating. It seemed like an eternity had passed before they finished up the food. Trudy quickly picked up the plates and then shooed the students, all of them going to their rooms excitedly. Duncan was escorted to Jerome and Alfie's room by Victor. He obviously couldn't share a room with Fabian, Mick and Eddie.
Nina's small body moved rapidly in her bed. She couldn't sleep, there was just something that was keeping her awake. She wasn't sure if it was insomnia, or just the lack of having another mystery to keep her at bay. Maybe it was Fabian's distance? No matter what it was, it was bothering her. She decided to get up and slowly creep to the kitchen. She walked out of the room, making sure not to wake Amber.
The hallway was cast with long shadows, lingering on the walls. There seemed to be a strong breeze in the room and the scent of chocolate touched her noise. She followed the scent and it took her to the attic. Oh great, she thought. Nina removed a pin from her hair and swiftly used it to open the attic door. She was a pro at this now. This shouldn't take more than a few minutes.
As she stepped in, the door slammed shut. There seemed to be no noise as it shut, though. Nina slowly turned around and looked around. Nothing seemed to be there. Was she just going crazy?
And then she screamed. It wasn't a muffled scream, but a high pitched scream that could be heard through out the house. Nina Martin fell to the ground, her skin slowly losing colour.
So, yeah. That was Chapter 1. Tell me what you think! I'll update as soon as I get 10 reviews. I'll accept 7 at the least, though? Farewell :D!
