Hi again! Here's the next chapter. Feel free to send me your ideas.
''WHAT ARE YOU DOING KENDALL ELEKTRA?'' Victor bellowed angrily.
''I...I...was just...'' she stuttered.
''I wasn't clear when I said my office was out of bounds, was I! IF I CATCH YOU HERE AGAIN, YOU'LL BE SORRY!'' With that, Kendall ran out.
''Well, did you find something?'' Patricia asked.
''Yeh. This.'' Kendall showed her the box. It had a familiar symbol on it.
''Is that a crook?'' Patricia examined the box.
''I think so. Let's go show the others.'' The two girls went downstairs and knocked and Patricia barged in to the room.
''Patricia, what did I say...'' Fabian was interrupted by Patricia.
''Look!'' She showed Fabian the box. He opened it and out came a plain, gold ring, with 'Osirion' engraved into it.
''There's a piece of paper in it.'' Fabian pointed out, reading it. ''Congratulations! You have found the clue! This ring is to be worn by the Osirion. It will unlock a portal.''
''Where is the portal?'' Patricia was getting worried. Although she didn't really have a soft side, she cared about Eddie, and by the looks of it, they were going to fail. And then Eddie would be gone.
''I think Eddie knows.'' Kendall pointed to a sleeping Eddie. He was tossing and turning. A moment later, he shot up from his bed, shouting Attic.
''Attic?'' Patricia went up to him.
''But Nina's locket opens it up. We've searched everywhere!'' Fabian said with a strange look on his face
''Guys, I have to tell you something.'' Eddie sat up on his bed. ''He has a doll.''
''Eddie, be more precise. What does it do?'' Patricia sat on the bed next to him.
''If the spirit hits it, then it hurts me. '' Eddie explained.
''Slow down, I thought it was just a voice!'' Fabian gasped.
''We have to tell the others. Apep has got a body.'' Eddie texted KT and Alfie and they came down.
''Guys, Apep has a body. He wants the crook bad. So that's why he has a doll that can hurt me. I think it's his way of telling me that we've done something wrong.'' Eddie explained.
''But who's body is it?'' KT asked.
''What d'ya mean?'' Alfie was getting scared.
''Well, if it was just a voice, then it needs a body to go in, if you get me.'' KT explained.
''It wasn't a person though.'' Eddie sighed. ''We need to get into the attic. Fast. And that means stealing the key from Victor.''
''Eddie, you have to wear this.'' Patricia put a ring on to Eddie's middle finger of his right hand. It adjusted to the shape of his finger.
''Why? Do you wanna marry me or something?'' He joked.
''It says it on this sheet that Kendall found under Corbierre.'' Patricia showed him the box. Immediately, another sheet fell from it.
''The Osirion has the power to use this box as his secret weapon. It will give you clues. Open the box.'' Eddie read out. He opened the box and a key lay in it, with another note with it. ''This key can only be used once.''
''Let's go to the attic now!'' Patricia suggested. ''Sibuna''
''Sibuna.'' All of the Sibuna members went up to the attic. Patricia and Eddie tip-toed towards the door whilst KT and Kendall hid in the girls' bathroom and Alfie and Fabian hid in Patricia's room. Eddie carefully put the key into the keyhole, whilst Patricia kept watch.
''Guys, I've opened it. Come on.'' Eddie crept into the attic followed by Patricia, an eager Kendall (she had never been up there before), KT, Fabian and a frightened Alfie.
''Right, what are we looking for?'' Fabian asked.
''Anything. A door, a window, or a curtain which may be the portal.'' Patricia replied, searching.
''Guys look at this!'' Eddie smirked as he saw an old checked jacket which looked like it was from the 1800's.
Eddie was in the attic. He was looking around. Then, he saw a box near the window with a sun on it. He opened it and there lay a doll. Then, he saw his dad coming. Eddie hid behind a curtain. His dad carefully lifted the doll and pinched its leg. Eddie felt a small twitch on his leg. His eyes widened. That's what they had to find. Suddenly, he saw Apep.
''I have a soul!'' Apep laughed evilly.
''Hey! Whose soul do you have?'' Eddie blurted out in confidence. He then realised that it was a bad idea. Apep continued to roar in laughter.
''Oh, I really hoped that you wouldn't ask me that!'' Apep bellowed.
''Come on, tell me!''
''Your little sister!'' Apep replied.
''Amy'' A lump formed in Eddie's throat.
''NOOOOOOOOO!'' Apep vanished into thin air.
''EDDIE!'' Patricia went and put an arm around him. They sat down on an old couch.
''He took my sister!'' Eddie croaked out. There was a gasp.
''So he...'' KT said.
''Killed. Yes. She was 2.'' His head fell into Patricia's lap. The others left, giving them some space.
''Eddie. We have to finish this.'' Patricia said, stroking his blonde hair.
''No. We can't.''
Please review! Bet you didn't expect that!
