"Where am I?" I asked the white, nothingness. Then I saw smoke start to rise and I panicked.

"Someone! Help me! Fabian! Amber!" I shouted, scared, but I knew I was in a separate, ummm dimension? Okay, let's call it a dimension, "Fabian. Amber." I whispered in a desperate hope. Of course nothing happened.

That's when I started getting hysterical. I pounded the walls, and screamed. After about five minutes of that, I heard laughter. I turned around to see none other than solid Sarah, standing there, smiling!

"SARAH!" I screamed, and then I ran at her and hugged her with such force, we got knocked down! I was so worried I hurt her, but then a tsunami of relief hit me when I heard her laugh.

"Little one, you cannot hurt me here, don't worry," she said reassuringly, yet as if reading my mind. Can she do that?

"Also, when you told your very dedicated friends that you thought that one of my parents was the chosen one, you were correct. My father was, and my mother loved him so much that she helped him through everything. Anyway, since your probably wondering what this place is, it's the place all chosen one's go to when they die," she finished.

It took a minute for the words to sink in. Wait, if this is the place chosen one's come to when there dead then why am I here? I'm not dead! Thank you very much.

"Sarah, I'm not dead though," I said stating the obvious, wanting an answer.

"No, no your not. I've been wondering that myself," she mused, "I think you're here because you are the one and only chosen one who has lifted the curse, but now the locket needs your, um, essence, to survive."

"Will I ever be able to leave!" I shouted.

"Not until the next chosen one dies, or someone with the chosen one blood in them, comes along and sets you free." She said, calmly, as if it were nothing.

"By the time a new chosen one is dead, so will all my friends! And what am I supposed to do here, for like, another century!" I screamed, I am here for another century. Here! In the middle of white nothingness!

"Well, not many are in your situation," she said.

"No kidding," I muttered under my breath, and waited for her to continue.

"But I guess while you're here, we could teach you how to use your powers, well the powers with the locket. We can't teach you any others though. You have to figure those out on your own, not many have had a chance to learn to harness their powers."

I was dumfounded. I had powers? This was too much. I was completely and utterly confused. It must have shown because Sarah looked at me with a small smile, while shaking her head.

"You see Nina, all chosen ones are related to an Egyptian god or goddess. You are related to Hapi. Controller of water. Son of Horus, which is why only you can use the locket, Nina. Your how ever many greats grandpa is Horus. And one of the few things you can do with the locket, is use it to see into the outside world, by using the 'eye'. You will see and hear whatever the beholder sees and hears. Would you like to try?"

Would I like to see my friends again? Yes please!

"Absolutely," I said with finalization.

"Okay, here's what you have to do. Close your eyes and imagine a ball of light, or a flame of light, but not fire! Now in that ball of light, there is a tiny red dot. The light is you and your essence, soul, etc. The red dot is the locket. Focus putting in all your light into the dot. If you do this correctly, then you are there. Now I am going to leave, I have some business, then I'll be back, eventually," she smiled and faded from sight.

"Wait! Sarah!" I cried too late, nervous to be left alone.

"Fooooccccuuussss Niiiiiinnnnnaaaaaaa," I heard a distance voice call out to me, echoing.

What the heck. Any chance to see my friends, I'll take it. So I did as Sarah told me, and second by second I got pulled into a deeper and deeper meditation. Then it was like a bubble bursted and I opened my eyes to see Rufus threatening to kill Amber.

"Amber!" I yelled. Then I remembered no one could hear me. I sighed and watched worriedly and mesmerized. I couldn't believe Rufus Zeno-cruelest man ever- had my best friend's life in his grimy, dirty, hands! His!

Then Fabian did the worst thing possible. He gave Rufus, the evil, evil, EVIL Rufus, the elixir and the cup of Ankh. I can easily understand it though. Amber can't just die!

Rufus then ranted over his victory. Then Alfie started freaking out! WHAT THE HELL DID RUFUS DO? I'm gonna kill him! Elixir or not.

That's when Victor came in. He and Rufus exchanged words. Then part of their conversation caught my attention.

"It's a life for immortality. That boy is going to die!" Rufus said angrily.

Alfie is going to die and I can't do anything! Nothing! Na da! We may not be bffs but it doesn't mean that I want him to die! Thank god Rufus left then, if he didn't I might of just blown up this locket and kill him!

"Stop faking, Alfie," I heard the voice that I knew loved me. Even now. Too bad I'll never see him again . . . he sounded numb? Dead? Did my leaving really hurt him that much?

I wish I didn't have to leave, then I wouldn't feel guilty about something I couldn't control, and I would be able to kiss him more. Awww, those sweet lips, that I only got the chance to taste once. Saddening. Now I feel dead! And I'm pretty close to death!

Woah! I missed a lot. Okay, let's see Alfie's okay, Amber's mad at him for making her worry, and now Joy is trying to cajoled an unwillingly Fabian to go to the dance.

Joy. . . confuses me. I think she's really nice one second, and the next she's trying to kill Fabian's feelings for me, or is she? Ugh! See this is what I mean! Is she trying to steal Fabian from me, or does she understand Fabian's feelings, still loves him, and is just hoping to pull out some of his feelings for her. I think so. But I trust people way too easily so. . . maybe she's blinded by love?

That's when I heard something that pulled me right out of my thoughts.

"Joy, I'm sorry, but after I met Nina, everything changed. I truly believe that she is my soulmate." Fabian said it with such sincerity that I believed it so much, it hurt.

But within seconds Joy reminded me life doesn't have happy endings. Nina Martin, you refuse to start thinking about how depressing life can be sometimes!

That's when Joy became the kill-joy.

"Tiny crushes? You won't even give me a chance! Fabian I love you! I understand as to why your hurt! But she's gone! Might as well get over her, she's not coming back! I can comfort you! She did one wrong thing according to me Fabian, she told you she loved you too late. She also didn't tell you to let go. Well, you wouldn't anyways, your too stubborn."

She was right. I was being selfish. I should've told him to move on. But I didn't.

Another moment came when Joy confuses me. She offered Fabian the necklace.

It broke my heart when he didn't accept it.

Then, he explained. And my never-ending guilt came back, times three.

I was so wallowed up in my guilt that the next thing I see is Patricia accepting the locket, and dancing the night away with Jerome.

Hmmm, does Miss. Goth have feelings for the Smirking Prankster? Nancy Drew instincts tell me so.

A little while after, Amber announced herself and Alfie to be prom king and queen, I started getting dizzy. Then I couldn't hear any of Jerome and Patricia talking about some sort of plan . . .Fabian. . . Nina . . .relationship. That's all I caught.

Then I couldn't see Jerome anymore. The dizziness became worse, and a headache started. Soon turning into a migraine.

That's when I went back into the Death Spot, as I prefer to call it.

Then I fainted.


Next morning still nina:

"Where am I? Ugh. I'm so achy. . ." I trailed off in confusion. I looked around the room I was in. It was white, all white. The bed was white, the walls were white, everything was white. The room resembled a nurse's room. I was still confused as to where I was, so I got up to look around. I closed my eyes and fell backwards, onto the bed.

And that's when all my memories came back.

I stood up suddenly, and raced out the room. Only to be in a hallway with hundreds of portraits. Some human, others were the Egyptian gods. I want an explanation, now!

"Sarah!" I called., I turned around looking for her.

"Child, I'm right here. Now. What's the matter?" she asked gently.

"Where am I?" I asked.

"Um, since you fainted we made up a nurse's office. This um, heaven, we can call it, is meant so that you can't get hurt, or I think so, you are the only person alive who has been here," I sighed, just another reason as to how I'm different. Can't I just be normal?

"So, what exactly happened to me, Sarah?"

"You used too much of your powers and wore yourself out."

"Makes sense. So, when will I be able to use them again?"

"Tonight."

"What time is it?"

"On Earth, it's noon."

"What do you mean 'on Earth'?"

"Well there is no day, night, or any sort of time here."

"Woah, this place is so odd"

"Not after you get used to it."

"Hey Sarah?"

"Yes?"

"I haven't had anything to eat since yesterday. How am I not hungry?"

"When you're here, you don't get hungry. Considering everyone, except you, is dead."

"Oh," was all I could respond with.

"Is that it?" Sarah asked politely.

"What am I supposed to do exactly?"

"Aren't you tired still?" she asked, surprised. Now that she mentioned it, I was.

"Actually yes."

"Thought so. You used so much of your powers. You should only use them until you start to feel dizzy," she said with concern.

"Get some sleep," she told me, and so I did, by the time I was comfortable, I was asleep.


Few hours later:

I woke up with a yawn. And rubbed my eyes, only to be blinded by the bright white. I sighed and let my eyes adjust to the light.

"Sarah? You there?" I called out to nothing, but air.

"Yes? What is it?" She asked concern etching her voice.

"What time is it?" It was a normal question for me.

Sarah laughed at the question and answered, "You should forget about time. It doesn't matter here. But, if you must know it is 10:00 p.m."

My eyes widened. Did I really sleep that long? I got to see my friends and what their up to!

"So my powers should work," I said it more as a statement than a question.

Sarah nodded her head, "yes," she said.

"I'm guessing you want to see your friends again?" she asked. I nodded my head in response.

"Okay then, I'll leave you to it."

She disappeared, and this time I wasn't afraid to be left alone. I started imagining the light, and soon enough I found myself, walking around Anubis house. I figured Patricia still had the necklace, since it was a short walk to Amber and I's- I mean Amber's- room.

When she entered I saw everyone from Sibuna there. I looked over to the other side of the room, that used to be mine, and saw Joy's stuff there. I frowned at this. Had all my stuff been taken care of that quickly? Did they really not care about me that much?

I sighed and tried to tell myself to abandon the negative thoughts. I looked around the circle that was formed in the room. I saw all my friends and felt tears slipping down my cheeks. I also saw Joy was there too. Again, I wondered about her.

I drank in their appearances. All seemed depressed. How could I have ever thought such mean things about them? I asked myself, appalled by my earlier thoughts of them.

I decided to break my heart even more and looked over at Fabian. He seemed the worst.

"I'm so sorry," I whispered in a thick, unusual sounding voice. The tears would not stop.

"Ok, mission get Nina back from that stupid locket, and give her and Fabian a happy ending, commences," Amber said it so seriously, that a shaky laugh was brought out of me. I didn't want to miss a single second with my friends, but I knew eventually I'd have to stop since I wasn't strong enough with my powers yet.

"Um, don't you think that's a little too long, Amber?" Alfie asked.

"Nope," Amber responded without hesitation, then she gave Alfie 'The Look'. Alfie gulped and said "okay."

"Come on, Amber, no one is going to remember that!" Jerome whined.

"I did," Amber said, Giving Jerome 'The Look' also.

Jerome smirked and said, "That's because you came up with it."

"FINE. We'll change it!" Amber huffed.

"Okay mission, Gnbftslaghafahe, commences," Amber said. Whaaaat? Gnbftslaghafahe? Huh? Yet I was also cracking up with laughter. I looked at everyone and they all shared my expressions, even Fabian was trying to hide a smile.

"WHAT?" They asked in unison, choking on their laughter, I smiled.

"Mission, get Nina back from that stupid locket, and give her and Fabian a happy ending. Duh." Amber said it as if everyone was supposed to know.

"I said shorter not more confusing," Jerome said.

"Which do you want then," Amber demanded.

"Neither, I want a whole new title."

"It's either this, or that, which one?" Amber demanded, not letting up. Just as Jerome was about to respond, someone else did.

"How 'bout mission save Nina, simple, and you get Amber's point across. Now stop arguing! Were wasting precious time, that could be spent saving Nina!" Patricia butted in.

"Fine," Amber huffed.

"Agreed," Jerome said.

"Good so any ideas?" Patricia asked the group. No one said anything. If only I could tell them what Sarah told me. But maybe. . . maybe there's another way?

"We could smash it?" Jerome asked, rather than stated with his self-confidence.

"NO! WE ARE NOT SMASHING mit. . ." Amber had been yelling, but then was muffled by Patricia's hand.

"Are you trying to wake the rest of the house up?" Patricia hissed in Amber's ear. Amber shook her head 'no', "then stop screaming." Patricia said.

"Sorry, but we are not smashing it," Amber said.

"Why?" Joy asked.

"Because, what if when we destroy it, we kill Nina too! Or what if the next chosen one needs it? We can't just destroy it! It's too big of a risk.,"

"Amber has a point," Patricia sighed in defeat.

"Guys! I just got an idea! Okay so what if we Google how to attract aliens. Then when we find out, we do whatever it says-," Alfie was cut off by many "Alfie's that is the stupidest idea I have ever heard!"

And that's how it continued each day and night, with no ideas coming up. One night they just gave up. And I can't blame them they thought of almost everything. It still hurt when they gave up though. But they never forgot. Yes it hurts all of us now, but I should know the most that eventually this pain will numb. And who knows? Maybe there is hope out there.
