Okay...this multi-chapter was requested by mbav57704! This is sort of what I think might happen in the HOA movie, if a lot of the things in the third season didn't happen. I know, a lot of you will probably be wanting some Jeroy (bleh), but I don't do Jeroy. That couple makes me cry because Jara is supposed to be together. So I'm not going to cry just so y'all can have some Jeroy. Deal with it.
Enjoy!
"Mara, can I borrow your notes for history?" KT asked, stepping into the common room.
Mara looked up from her chess game and nodded with a smile at her friend. She shuffled through her book bag and pulled out her notebook as Jerome moved his bishop.
"Check." He announced, sitting back in his chair, waiting for her to make her move.
"Where?" she looked back at the bored, brown eyes searching for the play, and she held up her notebook for KT.
The American thanked her quietly and left the room. Mara stared at the board for a minute and then reached forward, moving her queen to the left side of the board.
"Checkmate." She grinned triumphantly.
"What?" he jumped up, scanning the pieces for his mistake. "Oh, shoot."
"I'm sorry, J," she giggled, reaching across to brush his dirty-blonde hair away from his sparkling blue eyes.
"No you're not." He grumbled.
"You're right, I'm not." She laughed.
He glared at her halfheartedly and then started laughing with her.
It was several weeks after the world had been saved by Sibuna. The school was back in order, everyone was friends again, and everyone was happy. The end of the school year was nearing and all the students were cramming for final exams.
Patricia and Eddie had finally sorted out all their problems and were now together, closer than ever. Willow and Alfie had started spending more time together, discovering that they were much more alike than they ever thought. KT, Fabian, and Joy, though still single, were happy as well.
"Hey, lovebirds," Eddie greeted, taking a bit out of a meatball sandwich.
"Hey, Eddie," Mara smiled, packing up the chess pieces.
"Edison," Jerome nodded in acknowledgement.
"What are you guys doing?" he asked.
"Nothing, we just finished our chess game; the fifth that I won." Mara replied, smirking at her boyfriend.
Jerome just stared at her boredly. Over the last month, she had gotten much better at the game. He was beginning to think that she did research on how to win every time. He believed that she was playing mind games on you when you played with her. She would move one piece to a bad place, just to confuse you, and then you'd end up losing.
"Aw, Jerry, does it hurt to get creamed by your own girlfriend?" Eddie chuckled.
He leaned his elbow on the fireplace mantel so he was standing next to his friends.
"Shut up, Junior."
Eddie smirked, tapping the mantel. He was about to retort when suddenly, a flash of light blinded him for a second. He blinked. After the flash, he briefly saw the neck of a woman, and a necklace hung there, sparkling in the light. And as soon as he'd seen it, it was gone. He was looking at the wall in the Anubis House living room. He looked around and his eyes landed on Mara and Jerome, who gave him questioning looks.
"Dude, we were talking to you." Jerome said.
"Sorry, but I have to, um, go." He mumbled, fleeing the room quickly. Patricia was stepping down from the staircase landing when he grabbed her hand and pulled her down the boy's corridor. She protested, trying to break free from his grip. He pushed her into his room and grabbed Alfie by the collar as he walked by. He shut the door behind him once he was in the room as well and leaned his back on it.
Fabian and KT stared at the three wide-eyed.
"Everything okay, guys?" KT asked hesitantly.
"I don't know, he just randomly shoved us in here." Patricia said, annoyed at her boyfriend. She crossed her arms over her chest and sat on his bed.
"Eddie?" Fabian spoke up, watching his roommate with worried eyes.
"Would you guys hate me if I said the mystery isn't over?" he asked.
"Oh, man…." Alfie murmured, running a hand over his face. He sat on the floor, leaning back on the trunk at the end of Fabian's bed.
"What do you mean it's not over?" Patricia questioned. "We just saved the world from ultimate destruction; I don't think this mystery can get any crazier than that."
"I had another vision."
"What did you see?" asked KT.
"A woman's neck—"
"We're looking for a woman's neck?" Alfie said in disgust.
"No, around her neck was this necklace. I can't really describe it, but it was pretty. And it's obviously an Egyptian relic. I know the house gave me this vision, I was touching the mantel when it happened." He slid to the floor.
"Okay, so we're looking for a necklace that we don't know anything about. This will be the easiest mystery yet." Patricia muttered sarcastically.
"Here, let's see what kind of jewelry was found in Tut's tomb." Fabian suggested, typing on his laptop quickly.
The others gathered around him, peeking over his shoulders to see the laptop's screen. The webpage loaded to a site that was all about Egypt. He skimmed through the sections and selected the tab that read Tut Artifacts. He browsed through the many pictures, but after double checking, they came up empty.
"Well, I'll have to do more than just that I guess. I'll head over to the library and see what I can dig up." He said, standing up. He stuffed his laptop in his bag and left the room.
"What now, Slimeball?" Patricia asked, immediately ready for the next move Sibuna will make.
"I have no idea." He mumbled, running a hand through his hair.
Well...that was the first chapter...trust me, they will get longer! Review?
If anyone would like to make a cover for this story, please PM me! I need one! :)
And so, dear brothers and sisters, we can boldly enter heaven's Most Holy Place because of the blood of Jesus. By his death, Jesus opened a new and life-giving way through the curtain into the Most Holy Place. And since we have a great High Priest who rules over God's house, let us go right into the presence of God with sincere hearts fully trusting him. For our guilty consciences have been sprinkled with Christ's blood to make us clean, and our bodies have been washed with pure water. Let us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be trusted to keep his promise. -Hebrews 10:19-23
-Rachel
