Here's Chapter 2. I hope you guys enjoy it.


Eddie's POV

"You are ridiculous Eddie." She commented after I ordered ndarly half of the menu at the dinner near her house.

"Portion sizes in Europe are almost twice as small az the ones in America. I've been startving for a year and a half." She laughed, taking a sip out of her Sprite. "Anyways...what's all ghis about reoccurring dreams?"

"Well as I said it's Chosen One and Osirian stuff." I tried not to let my expression indicate my mood.

"Okay."

"I had a dream that you...died." I choked on my drink when hearing this.

"Sorry, please continue. "

"Well, Ra killed Katai and the balance was thrown off."

"Im sorry did you say Ra?"

"Yes, what about it?" I sighed deeply. This is it.

"Umm...Neens...about 3 weeks ago say...June 10th, did you feel a...sudden surge of power or a sudden loss of awareness of any sort?"

"Yes...why?"

"Your dream was real. "

"What?"

"Ra cursed Katai to leave me. And without him I don't have my powers."

"He...He's dead?"

"No but...we need to find a way to get him back if possible. " She stood up and grabbed her stuff. "Where are you going?"

"I haven't seen or talked to you in over 10 the first time I do see you, you tell me that Katai died and now all of a sudden you want me to go on a life endangering adventure?"

"Nina please just-"

"I'll think about it. No promises. Now come on."


Nina's POV

"Honey I'm home!" Eddie yelled through the house. "Mom! Jamie! Taissa?"

"Where do you think they are?" I asked stepping through the door.

"I honestly have no clue. I mean not even the cat is here" He threw his bags into his room. "Make yourself at home." he gestured towards the couch.

He soon followed with a bottle of water in hand. "So, Neens, how long do you think you'll need to think about it?"

"More than 10 minutes that's for sure Eddie. " I could feel Amneris trying to claw her way to the surface to make me say yes but... I left Anubis to stay out of trouble. Plus it was all Eddie's idea. Now he wants me to risk my life to do this.

We talked about what we did during the year that had passed. Now I realize why I need him so much. Our lives are intertwined. He broke up with Patricia because she took to much focus away from protecting me. And I moved away from my closest friends in order for me to stay safe. The sound of the front door opening brung our conversation to an end.

"Mom, is that you?"

"Eddie, my baby boy you're home!" exclaimed a woman with ginger hair rushing into the room. She squeezed Eddie's cheeks and kissed him repeatedly before finally realizing my presence. "Who is this?"

"Mom, this is Nina. I've told you about her before haven't I?"

"Yes, the stuck up snood who got you to break up with sweet Patty."

"Mom, Nina isn't stuck up. If anything, she's way better than Patricia."

"Dinner will be ready at five. She can stay if you watch your siblings."

"Mom Jaime and Tai are 16 and 15 years old they are capable of-"

"No excuses. Go put your stuff away. I already know that you just threw it in your room like always."

He sat back down and smiled nervously. "Sorry about my mom...she can be..."

"The direct opposite of your dad?"

"Bingo."

"Gran used to be that way with my dad...He would've liked you." I felt myself choking back tears on the topic of my father.

"Come on, I'll show you around." He grabbed my hand pulling me up and held my hand as he led me down the hall. "This is my room. I haven't used it in a while but uhm...yeah." I walked into the doorway being greeted by calming blue walls artistically covered in sketches and posters and shelves filled with trophies. In the middle next to the window was a king sized bed with a black embroidered comforter.

"It's amazing."

"Yeah right. The only reason it looks even this good is because my mom forced me to clean before I left last time."

"Well I like it...It suits you."


Eddie's POV

"So how's dad? I heard he actually got a date." Jaime commented as we ate.

"Jamieson Miller, we have company, you can cut the attitude." Mom responded as she set the peas on the table.

"Sorry for my idiot brother, he doesn't know how to act like a normal human." Nice zinger. "So how long have you been with Eddie?"

"Oh um, we aren't together. "

"Not yet"

"Taissa!"

"Sorry."

"I think I've had enough to eat. It's getting late Neens you should probably head home."

"Okay then. Thank you Ms. Miller for the meal, it was delicious. Nice meeting you all."

After she grabbed her things I walked her to her car. " You are way too nice."

"Well I'm sorry that I didn't yell at your sister for not understanding that I'm just your other half. And that if you die I might be the reason why."

"Okay okay. Are you sure you'll be okay? You haven't said a thing about your Gran all day."

"That's...because she died a few months ago."

"And you didn't tell me?"

"It isn't exactly something I like to talk about."

"Okay...well who are you staying with?"

"No one at the moment."

"Yeah no kne except me."

"What do you mean."

"I'm not gonna leave you there by yourself. Not while I'm in this country."

"You should spend time with your family, don't worry about me. "

"That's my job. To worry about you. Im coming home with you there's no changing that." I ran back into the house and grabbed my things. You wouldn't believe how mad my mom sas when she heard I was spendingthe night at Nina's. I don't think I have ever seen her this mad.

When we arrived at Nina's house I noticed that nothing had changed since the last time I was here. Everything seemed like it was in the exact spot as last time.

"The guest room is-"

"Nina I think we both know that I am not letting you out of my sight."

"Fine. There's a sleeping bag in the closet. You know I'm not defenseless Ed."

"I know, you're wreckless. Let's just hope it doesn't come to that." I replied as I strockex my fingers yhrough her hair and leaned my forehead against hers. "Now, can you tell me where the ingredients for...I don't know, a pancake run would be in this fine establishment?"

"Why of couse my good sir." She mimicked. She's beautiful when she's happy.
