House of Lights:
The club was in the secret room taking another look at the hieroglyphs. Aaron took pictures of the wall.
"These hieroglyphs are supposed to tell us what to put in these tubes, but it's hard to figure out," said Fabian.
"I took pictures, so you can take a look at them later," said Aaron.
"Thank you," said Fabian.
"Let's get out of here," said Nina.
"Yeah, come on," said Amber
"Open your heart to me," said Aaron.
The wall opened and the club exited the secret room.
A few moments later. Victor was sitting in his office, reading the prescription for the truth serum.
"This will work and then we will find the Ankh and the wall. And then he has to give me the house. This house belongs to me, not to the man who is so cowardly that he has to cover his face with a Halloween mask. What does he think, that he has power over Victor Rodenmaar," said Victor.
Victor grinned. Suddenly the lights in Victor's office were out. Victor grabbed his flashlight and walked to the cellar were the lights were also out. Victor walked over to the fuse box and turned the lights back on.
"And then there was light. For a second I thought that raven head was behind it," said Victor.
Suddenly the lights went out again, but this time not just in Victor's office and in the cellar. The whole power in the house went out.
The next morning. Nina woke up and looked at her alarm clock and saw that the time was wrong. Nina looked at her phone and saw that it was almost 8:30 am.
"Amber!" Shouted Nina.
"What is it!" Shouted Amber, as she woke up.
"It's is 8:27," said Nina.
"What! Why didn't the alarm clock go off?" Asked Amber.
"I think the power went out," said Nina.
"We're gonna be so late for school," said Amber.
"Get out of bed and hurry," said Nina.
Nina and Amber grabbed their things and ran out of the room and knocked on the other girls' doors to warn them. The rest of the girls rushed out of their rooms. The girls ran downstairs and warned boys. The boys came out of their rooms and went to school with the girls as quickly as possible.
A few minutes later, the Anubis residents arrived at the school. The residents were taught by Mr. Sweet and entered the room.
"You're all late," said Mr. Sweet.
"Sorry Mr. Sweet the alarms didn't go off," said Mara.
"Alfie Lewis what are you wearing?" Asked Mr. Sweet.
"Oh apparently I'm still wearing my pajama pants," said Alfie.
"Apparently you do," said Mr. Sweet.
"It won't happen again Mr. Sweet," said Alfie.
"Sit down so we can start the class," said Mr. Sweet.
The Anubis residents sat down and Mr. Sweet began his class.
While the residents were at school, Victor had repairmen in the house to look at the electricity.
"Well, that's going to cost you a few nice bucks," said one of the repairman
"What is going on?" Asked Victor.
"The insulation loop current wires is completely destroyed," said the repairman
"How is that possible?" Asked Victor.
"You're lucky it didn't catch on fire. This all needs to be replaced," said the repairman.
The repairmen continued checking out fuse box. Victor went back to his office.
After class, Joy was at her locker, Otis walked over to talk to her.
"Joy can we talk," said Otis.
"Go away Otis, I've nothing to say to you," said Joy.
"But I've to you. I'm really in love with you. Those letters weren't a prank, they were real," said Otis.
"Yeah right," said Joy, sarcastically.
"Why don't you believe me?" Asked Otis.
"Because you're Otis, you're a prankster," said Joy.
"And this is why I wrote the letters so you wouldn't see me as a prankster, said Otis.
"You humiliated me," said Joy.
"Why do you feel humiliated?" Asked Otis.
Joy said nothing and closed her locker. Joy looked at Otis with an angry look.
"Joy, talk to me," begged Otis.
"All I've left to say to you is that your breath stinks," said Joy.
Joy walked away. Otis checked his breath and it did smell bad. Otis was upset that Joy still was mad at him.
In the meantime. Jerome was in the history room with Mr. Griffin.
"I want to see results now, so bring it," said Mr. Griffin.
"But I don't have anything yet," said Jerome.
"You don't have anything yet. Well then you take it your time, apparently you don't care about your father," said Mr. Griffin.
"Of course I do. Why do you think I'm doing this all this, I'm not doing this because it's fun," said Jerome.
"It's not enough Jerome," said Mr. Griffin.
"I placed that eavesdropping device of yours, but it doesn't work right," said Jerome.
"Listen boy, time is running out. I want you to be on it 24 hours a day," said Mr. Griffin.
"I'm already doing that. Just give me some extra time, I promise it'll be alright," said Jerome.
"We need that money, Jerome. The tomb, otherwise I can't do anything for your father," do you understand," said Mr. Griffin.
"Yes, I'm doing my best," said Jerome.
"Give me results," said Mr. Griffin.
Jerome got up and left the classroom.
A few hours later. One of the men from the electricity company was sitting at the table eating a cup of coffee and a sandwich. Victor took the sandwich away from the repairman.
"I don't pay you to sit here at your leisure, you have lunch at your own time," said Victor.
"This is my lunch break hour. My colleague is working on the last circuit," said the repairman.
"Oh yeah? And why doesn't the light in the cellar work?" Asked Victor.
"Oh uh..., well uh... then let's take a look," said the repairman
"Yeah, let's do that," said Victor.
Victor and repairman walked to the cellar. The other repairman walked to the kitchen.
"And?" Asked Vera.
"It is done," said the other repairman
"Good," said Vera.
Vera took some money from her apron pocket and gave it to the man.
"And with no one a word about this," said Vera.
"Yes," said the man.
The man put the money in his pocket and walked away. In the meantime Victor and the repairmen came back from the cellar.
"What a blown fuse? How did that happen?" Asked Victor.
"Come on and let's talk about it," said the repairman.
"Can that be repaired?" Asked Victor.
"Of course, but it will take a long time and it is not cheap. We'll have to rebuild everything," said the repairman.
"I can do that myself," said Victor.
"You go ahead and do that if you want to get a power shock, this is something you can't solve yourself. So please leave it to the professionals," said the repairman
"And what is going that professional job going to cost me?" Asked Vera.
"Let me put in the numbers," said the repairman.
The man took out a calculator and calculated the amount and showed it to Victor. Victor almost had a heart attack when he saw how much the new construction would cost.
"What that much? Are you sure there isn't a zero too many?" Asked Victor.
"Sir, if it could be cheaper, I'd do it, but this is already very tightly priced," said the repairman.
"Yes, that will be fine," said Victor
"I've to go I've another job," said the repairman.
The repair men left again. Vera walked over to Victor.
"Are you okay Victor?" Asked Vera.
"No, we really can't use this," said Victor.
"Too bad, I'd like to help, but I only have a little bit of money myself," said Vera.
"I understand," said Victor.
Victor walked back to his office. Vera got a grin on her face knowing that the plan was going further and further into effect.
A few hours later and the residents were back home. Fabian sat in his room, studying the photo of the wall. Eddie sat on his bed with a tennis ball bouncing against the wall.
"Eddie would you stop that, I can't concentrate like that," said Fabian.
"Sorry," said Eddie, as he put the tennis ball away.
"What are you doing?" Asked Eddie.
"Just doing some homework," said Fabian.
"How's Nina?" Asked Eddie.
"She's doing better," said Fabian.
"And are you two still lovey-dovey?" Asked Eddie.
"I would never describe it in those words, but yeah," said Fabian.
"Okay," said Eddie.
"And what about you?" Asked Fabian.
"What about me?" Asked Eddie.
"You and Patricia, what's your relationship status?" asked Fabian.
"We're a couple, I'm sure of that," said Eddie.
"But is something missing?" Asked Fabian.
"No, I mean Patricia is very special, but I don't know what it is," said Eddie.
"Maybe you can go on a date?" Suggested Fabian.
"We've already been on a date," said Eddie.
"But not yet on one as an official couple," said Fabian.
"No, that's true. Maybe I should come up with something, but what?" Asked Eddie.
Eddie started thinking about something he could do with Patricia. Fabian focused on the riddle again.
"I've got it," said Fabian.
"What can I do for my date with Patricia?" Asked Eddie.
"No, something else," said Fabian.
Fabian got up, grabbed his note and left the room. Fabian knocked on Aaron's door.
"What is it?" Asked Aaron.
"I solved the hieroglyphics," said Fabian.
"No way," said Aaron.
"Yes, in Nina and Amber's room in five minutes," said Fabian.
Five minutes later. The club was in Nina and Amber's room. The club did not know that they were being bugged by Jerome.
"You solved the hieroglyphics?" Asked Patricia.
"Yes," said Fabian.
"What do they say?" Asked Nina.
"Okay we've to collect these 6 things Black Liquid Gon. The taste of the Great Bitter Lake. Balm of the Nomad. Oil of the Egyptian Victory Flower. Sweet Scent of Mourning essence. Fire of Prometheus," said Fabian.
"And what does that mean?" Asked Patricia.
"I don't know," said Fabian.
"But you said you solved the hieroglyphics," said Aaron
"Yes, and this is what the hieroglyphics say," said Fabian.
"So basically it's a riddle with in a riddle," said Patricia.
"Yes, that's what it comes down to," said Fabian.
"What now?" Asked Alfie.
"I'm going to visit my uncle tomorrow maybe he can help us, said Fabian.
"I'm coming with you," said Nina.
"Do you want that?" Asked Fabian.
"Yes," said Nina.
"Sibuna," said Amber, while doing the Sibuna gesture
"Sibuna," said the rest of the club while doing the Sibuna gesture.
The club had finished their meeting. And in the meantime, Jerome had called Mr. Griffin.
"I hope it's important," said Mr. Griffin.
"I've listened in on them and I found out that Fabian is going to his uncle with Nina tomorrow," said Jerome.
"And what else?' Asked Mr. Griffin.
"I don't have anything else yet," said Jerome.
"Well at least it's something, said Mr. Griffin.
Mr. Griffin hung up. A few hours later and everybody in Anubis house was asleep.
The next day. Fabian and Nina were at the nursing home where Ade was staying.
"Uncle Ade, it's me Fabian," said Fabian, as he sat down.
"Hello," said Nina, as she sat down.
"We planted the seeds in the dead earth, remember? The seeds we found in your shop," said Fabian
"My shop?" Asked Ade.
"Yes, thanks for that. It worked, Uncle Ade, a new riddle has appeared," said Fabian.
Fabian took the photo out of his bag and showed it to his uncle.
"Here is the picture," said Fabian.
"The lioness," said Ade.
"What?" Asked Fabian.
"The healing lioness," said Ade
"The healing lioness?" Asked Nina.
"Uncle Ade what does that mean?" Asked Fabian.
"She's the key," said Ade.
"Key? What key?" Asked Fabian.
"This is no use," said Nina.
"Beware there is danger! Watch out for the man with the hat and the raven head!" Said Ade, as he grabbed Nina's arm.
Nina got vague flashes of her kidnapping and of her kidnapper Raven. Nina got scared.
"I want to get out of here," said Nina, as she got up and walked away
"Nina," said Fabian.
Fabian said goodbye to his uncle and went after Nina. One of the nurses walked over to Ade and gave him his medicine. But it wasn't a nursing home nurse at all, it was Vera dressed as one. Had she heard what Ade said to Nina and Fabian?
(Side note: The next task is mostly based on the next task from the British/American version, so that one wasn't in the Dutch/Belgian version. But I liked the chemistry task so I wanted to include, but I'm changing it a bit)
