Chapter One – House of "A"nubis

Aria Montgomery was standing outside of House of Anubis, scared because she was the first of many Rosewood residents to be joining this place. Why she got there? Because, apparently the school sent her a scholarship. She hesitated and walked up the steps and was about to knock when her phone went off, indicating she got a text. Aria reached in her pocket and took it out.

"Just my luck," she mumbled to herself. The text-message was from a blocked-ID. It read:

Welcome to Anubis House, Liars. This is where drama, mystery, and ME live. Have fun.

-A

Aria rolled her eyes and knocked on the door. The door opened and stood there was old man with the name of Victor. He wore a vintage coat and spoke with a British accent - well, Aria is in the U.K.

"Ah, you must be. . . ." Victor started.

"Aria Montgomery," she replied.

"Ah, yes, come in," Victor said.

Aria walked in and was shocked about what she saw. It was beautiful, and she could tell this place is full of secrets. Just her place.

"So," she said, turning to see Victor. Yet, she didn't see him. It was a blonde boy. "Um, who are you?"

"I would love to ask you the same question," he replied, with an attitude.

"I asked you first," Aria replied.

"Jerome."

"Aria."

They shook hands.

"If you're looking for Victor, he stepped out," Jerome said, walking to the hallway.

"Why?" Aria asked. Jerome stopped and turned.

"Because there's more going on here than you think," he said, and he turned around, and walked to the hallway.

"Great, more secrets to keep," Aria said.

Two girls walked downstairs. One was blonde, and the other had brownish hair.

"I'm telling you, Nina, the world is going this year!" the blonde said.

"No, it won't Amber," Nina said. They looked up and noticed me.

"Hi," Nina said.

"How about you, girl," Amber said. "Do you think the world is going to end this year?"

"Um, I highly doubt it," Aria replied.

"You must be Emily, right?" Nina asked. Aria shook her head. "Hanna?" Aria shook her head. "Then you're rooming in the attic with Spencer or Aria. You are . . ."

"She looks like an Aria," Amber said. Aria nodded.

"Well, nice to meet you Aria," Nina said.

"Nice to meet you, too - I want to say Nina?" This time, Nina nodded.

"Good," Amber said. "Who am I?"

"You must be Amber," Aria said. Amber nodded.

"Hey, you're American," Nina said.

"Yeah, and trust me, we're not going to be the only ones," Aria said. "Emily, Hanna, and Spencer are my best friends."

"Great," Aria said.

"The attic's upstairs," Amber said.

"I figured," Aria said, as she made her way upstairs.

Nina and Amber made their way to the living room when Nina's phone went off. She grabbed it and read the text.

Hey, Nins. Remember me?

-A

Nina looked up from the text, shocked. She looked left, right, and in back of her. The only thought that went through her head was:

It's happening again.
