I'm Nina Martin a 16 year girl with a spirit for adventure. I have long dirty blonde hair and blue eyes.
Today marks the day of my parents and brothers death and 3 years ago today was the day that changed my life and I'll tell you my story.
I wake up to the sun coming through my window. I trudge down the stairs and smell the aroma of bacon and pancakes. Yum, I think, wait aren't my parents at work? I walk in the kitchen to find my older brother, Danny, making pancakes and a big mess.
"Danny you know you are going to clean that mess up, right?" I say grabbing a piece of bacon and taking a bite.
"No, you are. Grant is coming in 15 minutes and I need to get ready." he says back before leaving me with the mess.
I grab a towel and start brushing some flower off the counter into the trash until I hear something clink against the medal trashcan. Looking to see what it was I saw a key with engraving on the side that says "Through the looking eyes you shall see a treasure that will give you the power to rule the universe,"
Forgetting the mess in the kitchen I walk to Danny's room. Since it was in his mess maybe he knows what it means. But I hear a noise and decide to find out what the noise was. I walk closer to the noise and end up at the basement stairs. I slowly walk down the stairs to find my brother dead and tied to a support beam.
I run up the stairs and to the nearest phone. I dial 911 and put the phone up to my ear.
"Hello this is 911 please state your emergency," the lady on the line says
I was crying all I was able to get out is "brother…dead…basement" before bursting out in tears
"They are on their way to you but what I need you to do is calm down and relax everything is going to be alright,"
"Thank you I think I do need to calm down for a while bye." I say than hang up.
Sitting on the couch I turn on the TV and the news is on
"John and Jenny Martin died in a crash early this morning on interstate 78." I turned the TV off not able to bear what is going on. I hear sirens outside so I open the front door and walk outside.
Since my parents and brother died I've been living with my gran in America but today I'm going to my first year of boarding school at House of Anubis.
I'm at the front steps of the house taking in the site of the house fingering the key that I found 3 years ago for the memory of my parents and brother. I walk up the steps onto the porch and go inside where I meet our house mother, Trudy, I think.
"Hello, I'm Trudy." She said sticking her hand out which I accepted.
"Hello I'm Nina Martin from America. You can probably tell from my accent."
"Well, it's nice to meet you Nina but I must get dinner ready. If you need help finding your room ask for Amber. She's your roommate."
"Thanks." I say exiting to what I presume is the common room.
My first chapter story I want a review and idea for the next chapter I have no idea what to do next.
