Chapter 4-

Nina's POV
I ran. That was all I could do. Fabian was behind me, Thank God. I didn't stop running until I was safe inside the house. Fabian walked in, worried. Everyone was in the middle of breakfast, and they all stared. I couldn't do it. I just started crying, and ran up to my room, Fabian on my heels. When we were safely inside, I closed the door, waited about 3 minutes, and then opened it to see Amber fall onto the floor, eavesdropping. I told her to leave, and she did. I watched her go down the stairs to make sure she was gone. Then I walked back in the room, closed the door, and turned to Fabian. Poor Fabian, I'm surprised he didn't collapse from worry on the way here.
"What happened there, Nina?" he asked.
"Ok, I'll tell you," I began.
Fabian's POV
I had to hold back tears the entire time she told her story. Poor Nina, the girl I loved, tortured by Egyptian mysteries, her ancestors, men in black, (A/N: That reminds me of Alfie, hehehe.) and black birds. And there was nothing I could do. She broke out in sobs, and I just held her. There was nothing I could do; I couldn't tell her it was going to be okay, because I didn't know that. The gods are cruel, there's nothing I can do about it. I just wish there was.
Nina's POV
I couldn't help but cry after I told Fabian my story, he just held me. I was really sweet, now that I think about it. The only thing I left out was who the man was. I couldn't let him know. That would get him killed too.
"Nina," Fabian began, "Promise me that whenever something happens, you tell me right away. I can't stand to be like that."
"I promise," was all I could say, and then I started crying again.
