Raina's POV
I can hardly believe it. I'm FINALLY in England. I look outside the window of the taxi; watching the trees fly by, then look beside at Kara, my BFF, sitting in the seat next to me. Soon we'll arrive at the House of Anubis. I sure hope the place isn't as weird as the name…
Kara's POV
We're heading to our new school in a taxi….I hate taxis. Especially this one. The driver will NOT stop talking. "If he doesn't shut up I'm going to jump out and walk." I mutter to Raina. "No, you aren't." She said firmly. I roll my eyes, but I don't jump out. Raina notices my eye roll and grinned. The cab driver sees Raina's smile and asked "Having fun ladies?"
"I doubt it's possible for anyone to have fun when you're in the vicinity." I snap.
"It's not you, she's always like this." Raina said apologetically.
"Why?" the driver asked.
"Shut up. Now." I say. We drive the rest of the way in silence.
Raina's POV
When we finally pull up to the school, I realize it IS as weird as the name suggests. The place looks like a castle. I think Kara scared the cab driver, because when we unloaded our bags, he drove away VERY quickly, without asking for payment. As we watch the cab leave, a boy leaves the house and walks toward us. "Hi." He says. "I'm Fabian."
"Raina. Nice to meet you", I say, extending my hand. "And this is Kara." Kara just stares at Fabian, not saying anything at all.
Then we hear a noise behind us and we turn to see a limo crawling up the drive. A man, who looks WAY too big to be sitting in the car, is at the driver's seat. The driver gets out of the car and open's another door at the back of the limo. A very pale boy with dark hair in a suit comes out talking on the phone.
"Honestly Mother, I'm fine." The boy says.
"Are you sure?" An anxious voice, that must be his Mother asked.
"Yes, Mother, very sure."
"Alright then, Arty, dear." His mother said. The boy closed his phone and sighed.
Kara's POV
Raina was the first to unfreeze. "Hi, I'm Raina, Raina Sharel." She said extending a hand.
"Artemis Fowl the Second." shaking it like he was at a business interview. As soon as I unfroze, I focused on the Sasquatch behind him, giving him my famous death glare.
"Kara," Raina said, turning around and giving me a look that reminded me of my mom whenever I pranked my brothers "stop glaring at him. What has he done to you?"
"Nothing," I sigh. I lean down and whisper in her ear "You're not my mum you know." She frowns and ignores what I said. I straighten myself and mutter
"Whatever, we should go inside before we get reprimanded."
"By who?" Raina asked
"The guy that has been glaring at us for the past couple minutes and is stroking a stuffed bird." I said simply, pointing to a window on the top floor.
