House of Eggs:
Back at school. Joy walked to the computer room and looked up her ad and saw that someone had bid on the stones. Joy received a message from the buyer stating that he wants the stones tomorrow, Joy agreed to this. Joy shut off her computer and happily walked out of the room.
"Tomorrow Otis will be free of his debts," said Joy.
At the same time in the cottage in the woods.
"We did it, tomorrow we will get the stones," said the man in the raincoat.
"Good, for the stones will lead us to the Mask of Anubis," said the sick man.
Thanks to Joy," said the man in the raincoat.
"You know what to do now," said the sick man.
"I'm calling Ade Rutter," said the man in the raincoat.
The man in the raincoat picked up his phone and called Ade Rutter's shop.
"You speak with Ade Rutter," said Ade.
"Hello Mr. Rutter, have you ever heard of The Way of Amneris?" Asked the man in the raincoat.
"The Egyptian domino game," said Ade
"Do you know how many copies of that are?" Asked the man in raincoat.
"As far as I know there is only one copy of it," said Ade.
"And do you own it?" Asked the man in the raincoat.
"Yes I'm the owner of the copy. But I must tell you that I lent game...," said Add
Suddenly the man in the raincoat hung up the phone.
"It is the original set, the stones are authentic," said the man in the raincoat.
"Are you sure?" Asked the sick man.
"Yes. Joy has no way out, she's trapped, said the man in the raincoat.
"Get me the stones and quickly," said the sick man.
In the meantime. The club had gone to the place Nina had found to train. The club walked to an old abandoned building somewhere in the woods.
"What do you think?" Asked Nina.
"Super cool," said Alfie.
"This really is the perfect place to train," said Fabian.
"You do fitness in the gym, with those handsome muscular teachers," said Amber
"Amber we've to train in secret," said Patricia.
"I know that, but why does it have to be here?" Asked Amber.
"Because no one here will disturb us," said Nina.
"Alright guys let's start with the forest run right away," said Aaron.
"Forest run?" Asked Amber.
"Yes, come on," said Aaron.
Aaron started jogging and the club jogged after him.
In the meantime. Victor Jr. came home with all the boxes and almost bumped into Eddie.
"Hey Victor," said Eddie.
"Can't you see this is heavy, don't disturb me boy," said Victor jr.
Victor jr. took the boxes to the cellar.
A few hours later after an intensive training, the club returned home. Fabian walked into his room and saw Eddie sitting on his bed and saw that he was making strange movements with his mouth.
"What are you doing now?" Asked Fabian.
"I'm mentally preparing because tomorrow I'm going to beat the egg eating record," said Eddie.
"Beat the record eggs? Eddie is all right in that head of yours?" Asked Fabian.
Suddenly there was the sound of hammering.
"What is that?" Asked Fabian.
"That's Victor, he's working on some kind of project. He came this afternoon carrying all kinds of boxes," said Eddie.
Fabian grabbed his towel and went to the bathroom and was suspicious of Victor Jr.'s project.
At the same time in the cellar. Victor Jr. had just finished assembling the fitness equipment.
"I did that pretty good, if I say so myself," said Victor jr.
"Don't think you're already there, junior. It takes weeks, even months, to get that flaccid body into shape," said Victor sr.
"I'll start tomorrow, immediately tomorrow morning," said Victor jr.
"And then? Then you're a beanpole with a few muscles, then we're not even one step further," said Victor sr.
"When I'm in shape it'll be all right," said Victor jr.
"Without the amulet we are no junior anywhere! First the amulet, then the rest, got it?" Asked Victor sr.
"Yes, father but…," said Victor jr.
"No buts!" Shouted Victor sr.
"How am I supposed to get one of those amulet? Asked Victor jr.
"There are 6 children, 6 amulets and therefore 6 chances and you can't manage to get one! You're not worth being a Rodenmaar, said Victor sr.
"I promise I'll get one, I swear," said Victor jr.
"When I see it I believe it," said Victor sr.
Victor Sr. disappeared again and Victor Jr. now had to come up with a plan to get hold of an amulet.
A few hours later, the residents had just finished eating and Nina and Fabian were doing the dishes. Fabian tells Nina about what Eddie had told him about the boxes Victor Jr. had.
"Eddie was talking about huge boxes," said Fabian.
"What does he intend to do with that?" Asked Nina.
"I don't know, but I don't trust it," said Fabian.
"Think it's a good idea to go to the cellar tonight to find out," said Nina.
"I was thinking about that too," said Fabian.
"Let's not say anything to the other until we know exactly what's going on," said Nina.
"Agree," said Fabian.
A few hours later, all but a few residents were asleep. Nina crept downstairs and walked to the kitchen, where Fabian is already waiting for her.
"Hey," said Fabian.
"Hi," said Nina.
"Are you ready for it?" Asked Fabian.
"For what?" Asked a voice.
Nina and Fabian turned to see Amber standing by the doorway.
"Amber what are you doing here?" Asked Nina.
"Your bed was empty so I knew you were up to something," said Amber.
"We're going to the cellar, Victor is up to something," said Nina
"With what then?" Asked Amber.
"I don't know, that's why we're going to find out," said Nina.
"And I also want to go to the tunnels, because if we want to do tasks well, then I want to know where we stand," said Fabian.
"So you think Victor is also doing the tasks?" Asked Nina.
"That's what we're going to find out," said Fabian.
Nina opened the secret passage and she, Fabian and Amber went inside. When the three entered the cellar, they all saw fitness equipment.
"What is this?" Asked Nina.
"Fitness equipment, said Fabian.
"I didn't know that Victor was a sport type, that's good of him, isn't it? Said Amber.
"That's not good at all. He's doing the same as us, he's training for the task, said Nina.
"Oh dirty copycat, said Amber.
"Precisely, said Nina.
"Let's go to the tunnels, said Fabian.
The trio entered the secret room and continued toward the tunnels. The trio walked to the first task.
"Wow," said Nina.
"The hieroglyphics," said Fabian.
Fabian grabbed his bag and took out the notes.
"So we've to get over this?" Asked Amber.
"Yes, we're supposed to divide our weight over the stones, said Fabian
"That's not so difficult, is it? We just have to do it fast, said Amber.
Amber took a step forward and suddenly the large boulder hanging over the stones came down slowly. Amber stiffened with fear and Nina pulled her away from the stones and the large boulder stopped.
"Sorry," said Amber.
"What are you doing!" Yelled Fabian.
"I just wanted to help," said Amber.
"The tasks are life-threatening," said Fabian.
"Let's go back," said Nina.
The trio walked back to the entrance and left the tunnels and the cellar.
The next day. All residents were sitting at the breakfast table. Otis was half asleep and Joy looked at him with a worried look.
"And how does our champion feel?" Asked Jerome
"Is there something Jerome?" Asked Eddie.
"There is nothing at all. I just want our champion to feel as good as possible," said Jerome.
"It's just a competition," said Eddie.
"Oh no, it's so much more, you can make your name big," said Jerome.
"Very funny," said Eddie, Sarcastically.
"We mean well," said Mara.
"We just trying to give you a pep talk," said KT.
"Not that Eddie needs that, because after all he never loses," said Patricia.
"That's right," said Eddie.
"And you're hungry," said Jerome.
"And the whole school comes to see you break the record," said Patricia.
"And I'll make sure everything is fair," said Alfie.
"What do you mean?" Asked Eddie.
"Patricia allowed me to be the referee," said Alfie.
Eddie looked up less and less at the game.
A few moments later and residents and some other students were at school for the game. Otis was at his locker and pulled out a new note.
At the end of the day I want my money, I'm waiting for you!
Joy saw Otis standing by his locker with the note and walked over to him.
"Is that from Jeremiah?" Asked Joy.
'No, it's my wish list for Santa Claus," said Otis, sarcastically.
"Wait," said Joy.
"What?" Asked Otis.
"I don't understand. We were...?" said Joy.
"What were we?" Asked Otis.
"We were together, weren't we?" Asked Joy.
"Yes were, as in the past. And now you've to leave me alone, because I've to do this alone," said Otis.
Otis walked away, leaving Joy behind. Joy also walked away and went back to the house. A few minutes later Joy arrived at the house and went to Nina and Amber's room. Joy searched the room and eventually found the dominoes in the closet drawer. Joy put the stones in her bag and walked out of the room.
Back at school. Patricia, Jerome, Mara and KT were preparing for the match in the drama room. A few seconds later Eddie entered the room.
"Come sit down, said Jerome.
"But I.., said Eddie.
"No buts, you can't go back now, said Jerome.
Eddie walked to the podium and sat on the chair. And then Cameron Nyland came in and sat down next to Eddie.
In the meantime, the club was in the lockers.
"I think I found a way to help us train," said Fabian.
"What is it?" Asked Nina.
"I'm going to work on it and once it done I'll let you know," said Fabian.
Then the club saw some students running to the drama room.
"Egg Contest! They're going to the egg contest!" Shouted Alfie.
The club, minus Fabian went to the drama room. Alfie ran into the room and whistled from his pocket. Jerome walked over to the microphone.
"Welcome everyone to this legendary competition! This is the competition everyone will be talking about in 10 years. In the left corner our very own Edison 'Eddie' Miller," said Jerome.
The Anubis residents and a few other students cheered for Eddie.
"And in the right corner the world record holder with 26 eggs in a minute, the egg king, Cameron Nyland," said Jerome.
And many of the female students cheered for Cameron.
"And our referee, the stern yet fair Alfie Lewis!" Said Jerome.
Alfie walked onto the stage.
"And we also have an official Guinness World Records judge here to record it all," said Jerome.
The audience applauded the judge.
"Gentlemen, I want a fair game, you are not allowed to hit, kick or bite, all you are allowed to do is eat eggs. And whoever eats the most eggs in a minute is the winner. wish each other good luck," said Jerome.
Eddie and Cameron shook hands.
"I'll end you," said Cameron.
Eddie and Cameron sat down again.
"Ready in 3..., 2..., 1...," said Alfie.
Alfie blew his whistle and Eddie and Cameron started eating. Cameron ate one egg after another and Eddie struggled more. Cameron went faster and faster and Eddie got more and more nauseous. Time ran out and Alfie blew his whistle. Alfie walked onto the stage.
"What an exciting match. Eddie ate 4 eggs," said Alfie.
The crowd applauded softly for Eddie.
"But the absolute winner, with 28 eggs in a minute, is the egg king himself Cameron Nyland!" Said Alfie.
"Yes! I finished him! I'm the true champion, no one can beat me," said Cameron.
"Okay dude chill," said Alfie.
Some girls walked up to Cameron and asked for his autograph.
In the meantime. Joy was in the park for the meeting she had with the buyer of the stones.
"Hello. hello is anyone there? I've the stones," said Joy.
Joy looked around and saw no one. The man in the green raincoat suddenly stood behind Joy. Joy turned around and wanted to leave when she face to face the man.
What's going to happen? What does the man intend to do with the stones? And will Joy really sell the stone?
