Chapter 1; Part 2

Once the plane landed, I let out a sigh of relief. I just wanted to escape and run away from all the weird glances I was recieving from strangers. But most of all, I wanted the voices from the dream to stop repeating in my head as they haunted me!

Quickly, I grabbed my bags from above me and dart out while pushing through crowds of people. The airport was quiet and the sun was just breaking through the glass windows. Quickly I glanced down at my watch, which read 4:30 AM. I pulled my luagge foward as I walked, when I heard a voice, "Nina Martin?" The voice sounded quite amused and familiar. I turned my body in the direction of the noise. There I saw the chuckling Fabian who held a sign "Nina Martin" in his handwriting. As our eyes locked for a still moment he flipped the sign to reveal another message: "Surpised?"

I dropped my luguage and ran towards him, smiling so much that my cheeks hurted. He held me in to his arms and spun me around, gleefully. Just hearing his laugh made made my heart pound unstoppablely.

"I missed you so much!" I exclaimed once he had put me down. I stared into his eyes that I remembered so distinictly. Those eyes that I fell for. Those eyes that caused me to melt inside. Those eyes that we're full of embrassment after he called me beautiful on prom night.

"I missed you too. Seeing you in person is so much better than seeing on a computer screen!" he said while grabbing my hand as we strolled through the airport. He had a way of making a dull, tired airport in the early morning the most beautiful and wonderful place in the world.

"So how did you know when I was arriving?" I asked as we walked hand and hand to search for his car.

He chuckled, "Amber."

He turned the key to his Chevy truck and we road off to the highly anticipated Anubis House. All summer I dreamed of returning.

"I can't wait to see Anubis again. It's my home now! It may be creepy but I just love it so much!" I said, with excitement. I had missed everyone there so dearly and I felt as if it had been ages since I had seen them. Espeacially Fabian and Amber!

"So did you get to catch up with you friends from America?" Fabian asked, with his cute Britsh accent that made me fall for him.

I nodded, "Yeah, they asked me all about England and Anubis. They even asked for my best British accent!"

"Can I hear it?" Fabian asked with a laugh. In a terrible impersoniation I said, "Ello Governor!"

And in a perfected American accent he responded, "It could use some work."

"How could you do that so perfectly?" I whined, jokingly.

"I don't know. I guess... Practice." he's eyes staying locked on the road.

My face was glued to hsi window as we approached Anubis House.

"Finally, I'm home!" I exclaimed as we parked on the Col De Sac. We both picked up my luguage.

"Taking a picture? Why?" Fabian asked, as I pointed my camera on Anubis House.

"My Gran wants me to take pictures of almost everything this year and send them to her. She really misses me. And I miss her a lot too." I smiled just at the memory of her. She was basically the mother I never had and being away from her was still very hard.

"I miss my parents too. But luckily they aren't as far away." Fabian said.

My camera focused on the beautiful, detailed brick house which ivy grew over deilicately.

Click.

"Perfect," I let out to no one in particular. Then, I heard a loud "EEEEEP!" From inside the house. Oh, Amber.

At that very moment, as I stood there in admiration of Anubis house, a voice whispered eeriely into my ear. The voice was a faint voice of a woman who called, "I was waiting for your return."

My heart pounded, my vision blurred, and I suddenly felt weak and powerless.

"Nina!" Fabian shouted, but I could only hear it faintly. I fell on to the floor and my eyelids became heavier and heavier.
