House of Sisters:

Victor was face to face with the mysterious man.

"What is this a costume party?" Asked Victor, in snarky way.

"Don't make jokes," said the mysterious man.

"I'm not the one who's dressed up here," said Victor.

"Be silent! I'm going to talk and you are going to listen. And you only speak when I stop talking," said the mysterious man.

"What do you want to tell me?" Asked Victor.

"Have you got the Cup of Ankh?" Asked the mysterious man

"Not yet, but I know who has it, just not yet where it is," said Victor.

"Find out as soon as possible," said the mysterious man.

"Okay, I don't take orders from a man in a bird suit," said Victor.

"I wouldn't make any jokes about me, Victor, or you'll regret it. Especially because of what I'm going to tell you now," said the mysterious man.

"Then tell me," said Victor.

"Have you ever heard of Amneris?" Asked the mysterious man.

"She is Tutankhamun's secret love," said Victor.

"So you already know that. And did you know that he made her a love tomb," said the mysterious man.

"No, what has that got to do with the Cup of Ankh?" Asked Victor.

"The Cup of Ankh is the key to the love tomb," said the mysterious man.

"And you want to find that tomb?" Asked Victor.

"Yes and you're gonna help me with that," said the mysterious man.

"And why should I help you?" Asked Victor.

"Because those treasures in the tomb are worth a lot of money. And get what your heart desires," said the mysterious man.

"I don't care about money or wealth," said Victor.

"And what about Anubis House?" Asked the mysterious man.

"What are you talking about?" Asked Victor.

"How would you like to have Anubis House just for you, without those kids and without it belonging to the school," said the mysterious man.

"Anubis House all for myself?" Asked Victor.

"Yes, you help me find the tomb and you get Anubis House," said the mysterious man.

"You've got a deal," said Victor.

"But I before I go. I needed to proof you loyalty to me Victor," said mysterious man.

"What do you need me to do?" Asked Victor.

"You need to cut ties with Eric Sweet, he can't be a part of this," said the mysterious man.

"And if do that, then we're partners?" Asked Victor.

"I'm a man of my word Victor. You do that and we're partners," said the mysterious man.

"I'll do it," said Victor.

"Good choice," said the mysterious man.

"But if we're partners. How would I address you?" Asked Victor.

"My name is Raven and that's all you need to know," said Raven.

Raven picked up a smoke bomb and threw it on the ground and disappeared into the smoke.

In the meantime, all residents were back in the house. Fabian was reading in the living room. Otis entered the living room and sat down. Otis saw that Fabian was reading something, but not the book that he was holding.

"Fabian can I ask you something?" Asked Otis.

"What would you like to ask?" Asked Fabian.

"Do you read girl magazines?" Asked Otis.

Fabian shook his head. And Otis quickly grabbed Fabian's magazine, which he had hidden in his other book.

"I was...," said Fabian, not able to come up with an excuse

"You were reading this to understand Nina better, I get it," said Otis.

"Maybe," said Fabian.

"You've taken a look at the rubrics," said Otis.

"Which rubrics are you talking about?" Asked Fabian.

"Which magazine is it?" Asked Otis.

"Teen Girlz," said Fabian.

"Go to page 36, there are all the problems they discuss with their boyfriends," said Otis.

Fabian checked out page 36 and saw that Otis was right.

"How do you know this?" Asked Fabian.

"Fabian, I've three older sisters who constantly read these kind of magazines," said Otis.

Otis got up and left the living room. Fabian decided to read the rubrics.

Later that night. Patricia and Joy were in their room and Mara was still in the bathroom.

"So Rufus is really dead?" Asked Joy.

"Yes, according to the obituary about Rene Zeldman, aka Rufus," said Patricia.

"Thank you for telling me," said Joy.

"Thought you'd wanna know because thanks to him you had to go in to hiding," said Patricia.

"All because he and that crazy society thought I was the chosen one," said Joy.

"Yeah but he's gone now," said Patricia

"And what about you?" Asked joy.

"What do you mean?" Asked Patricia.

"Well Rufus kidnapped you and you had trauma because of it," said Joy.

"I'm sleeping a lot better now, knowing that he's gone," said Patricia.

Patricia and Joy stopped talking when Mara entered the room. The three girls went to sleep and everyone in Anubis House was asleep.

The next day the residents had already had breakfast and were at school they had French class from Ms. Delaney.

"Good morning class," said Ms. Delaney.

"Good morning Ms. Delaney," said the class

"Today I want to use this lesson to get to know you better, so that's why you are going to write this lesson about yourself, in French of course," said Ms. Delaney.

"And what do you want to know?" Asked Alfie.

"what your favorite color or your favorite animal is, about your hobbies, etc," said Ms. Delaney.

"Do we get a grade for it?" Asked Mara.

"No, this is just so I get to know you better. And at the end of class, you hand it over to me," said Ms. Delaney

Everyone in the class picked up their notebook and began to write. The class passed quickly, and everyone turned in their notebooks to Ms. Delaney. When everyone left the classroom, the room was full of pictures of Jerome dressed in a dress. Everyone except Jerome laughed.

"Is that Jerome?" Asked Alfie.

"He makes a real pretty lady," joked Otis.

He looks like cousin Michelle with that dress. Don't you think Amber?" Asked Aaron.

"Oh yeah, you're totally right," said Amber.

"And I have plenty more where that came from. Here we have my brother, Jerome, Sitting on his potty, age two. Jerome crying on Santa's knee, age 11," said Poppy, while she was handing out more photo's

"Poppy!" Said Jerome.

"Oh, hi, gerbil," said Poppy.

"Why are you doing this?" Asked Jerome.

"Do you remember the time you dressed up as a girl?" Asked Poppy.

"They made me do it. They made me do it. It was a school play. It's a kind of Christmas tradition over here, Nina," said Jerome.

"Hey, no need to justify yourself to me," said Nina, trying to hold in her laughter.

"You never told us you had a kid sister," said Aaron

"That's because I refuse to acknowledge she exists," said Jerome. "Take it down now," he ordered

"No chance," said Poppy.

Poppy walked away with some of her classmates and Jerome took down the picture.

A few hours later and it was lunch time. Joy, Fiona and Caitlin went to the drama room to have lunch and discuss how to bring Mr. Sweet and Ms. Delaney together.

"Now we know that Mr. Sweet and Ms. Delaney are perfect for each other," said Joy.

"Yeah, for the part that Ms. Delaney likes Bruno Mars and Sci-fi," said Caitlin.

"That doesn't matter, the like Joy said they're perfect for each other," said Fiona.

"We've to set up on a date. Because we know that Mr. Sweet will turn into a nervous wreck," said Joy.

"Yeah, you're right," said Caitlin.

"I mean I can't be that bad. I believe he was married once," said Fiona.

"You may be right, I believe there was a Mrs. Sweet once," said Caitlin.

"But now there isn't one anymore," said Joy.

"Does anybody have an idea of how set them up on a date?" Asked Fiona.

"Don't ask me how to do that. I'm no love expert. I can't have no normal conversation with Aaron, without somehow embarrassing myself," said Caitlin.

"Yeah I'm also not an expert when it comes to love," said Joy.

"Well when I met my boyfriend this summer it just kinda happened, so I don't think my advice would help either," said Fiona.

"Whoa, whoa, did you say that you've a boyfriend?" Asked Caitlin.

"Yes, I've a boyfriend," said Fiona.

"And you waited until now to tell me?" Asked Caitlin.

"Not on purpose," said Fiona.

"Mr. Sweet and Ms. Delaney can wait, tell me all about your boyfriend, Fi," said Caitlin.

"Yeah, come on spill," said Joy.

"Okay so his name is Cory and one year older than me. We met while we're watching so hatching of the turtle eggs and then we started hanging out," said Fiona.

"And what's he like?" Asked Joy.

"Well he likes animals just as much as me, so he also is a vegetarian. He is a poet and he's just very artistic and wants to go to the same college as I want to go once I graduate," said Fiona.

"Seems like you find your dream guy," said Caitlin.

"I think I've," said Fiona.

"Do you've a picture?" Asked Caitlin.

"On my phone," said Fiona.

"Show us," said Joy.

Fiona grabbed her phone and showed a picture of her and her boyfriend Cory. Cory has middle length wavy black hair and grey eyes.

In the meantime. Nina and Amber were in the girls bathroom. Amber was putting something lip-gloss and Nina was standing against the wall and wasn't feeling to happy.

"I wish Fabian and I had never kissed. Then I wouldn't feel like this," said Nina.

"Do you've buckling knees?" Asked Amber.

"Yes," said Nina.

"Pain in your stomach?" Asked Amber.

"Yes," said Nina.

"And you feel super unhappy?" Asked Amber.

"Yeah all three of those things, said Nina.

"O la la, Nina is hopelessly in love," said Amber.

"Yeah, but I don't think it's mutual," said Nina.

"Love makes you so blind. Fabian fancies you so much," said Amber.

"For real?" Asked Nina.

"Yeah, of course, duh," said Amber

"But what do I do now?" Asked Nina.

"That's where you got me for as your best friend, I'm gonna help you get Fabian," said Amber.

"How?" Asked Nina.

"You leave that to me," said Amber.

"I don't know whether to be very happy or very worried," said Nina.

"Be both," said Amber.

Amber was finished putting on her lip-gloss and she and Nina left the bathroom.

Later that day. Mick and Mara were walking down the hall and talking about that Jerome kept his sister a secret from everybody.

"Why is Jerome always so secretive about everything?" Asked Mara.

"I don't know. He's weird like that," said Mick.

"Speaking of being secretive. I know that Jerome isn't the only one keeping secrets," said Mara.

"What are you talking about?" Asked Mick.

"About you leaving," said Mara.

"I'm not leaving," said Mick.

"Mick I've found this yesterday," said Mara.

Mara grabbed the brochure from her bag and gave it back to Mick.

"How did you get this?" Asked Mick.

"You dropped it," said Mara.

"Oh," said Mick.

"Mick are you going to move to Australia?" Asked Mara.

"My parents are moving and the want to come to. My father heard about this school and I can go there," said Mick.

"So you're really leaving?" Asked Mara.

"No. I told my dad I wouldn't go," said Mick.

"Why not? That school is one of the best sport schools," said Mara.

"I know and I would really help me, to get into good colleges," said Mick.

"Then why aren't you going?" Asked Mara

"Because I don't wanna leave you. And you're way more important to me then that school," said Mick.

Mara didn't know what to say, she was happy that Mick wouldn't leave her. But somehow she also wasn't too happy about it.

School was almost over. Nina was at her locker putting some books away, when she saw Fabian walking down the hall.

"Fabian?" Said Nina.

"Yes," said Fabian, as he walked towards Nina.

"Have you figured out how you ..," said Nina, but Fabian interrupted her.

"Don't say anything I already know what you wanna say," said Fabian.

"Really?" Asked Nina.

"Yeah before you say anything you gotta hear this," said Fabian.

"I'm all ears," said Nina.

"This is the gate of the way to my heart, open me and you will find love," said Fabian.

"Wow ...," said Nina, with a big smile on her face.

"I've cracked the code, I've deciphered the hieroglyphs," said Fabian

Nina's smile faded and walked away disappointed. Fabian was confused, why did Nina walked away like that, why wasn't she happy he made a new discovery? Fabian wondered what's going on with her.
