House of Harsh:

Victor looked through the telescope and didn't see anything because a cloud blocked the moon. Victor turned to Fabian and Nina and they were worried that Victor had seen the riddle.

"Only you, Rutter. Only you would choose such a cloudy night to stargaze. Get to your rooms, both of you. You have five minutes, precisely," said Victor.

Much to the relief of Nina and Fabian, Victor hadn't discovered the riddle. Nina and Fabian hurried to their rooms.

The next morning Nina and Fabian told the club what happened last night and that they had found the next riddle.

"The riddle definitely said, light your way. Find the Demisphere hidden below," said Nina.

"But what's a demisphere?" Asked Alfie.

"I don't know. Half a hemisphere?" Guessed Nina.

"Hidden below. Does that mean hidden in the cellar?" Asked Patricia.

"We still need to collect. A sample of the elixir as well, remember? And we know where he keeps it now," said Fabian.

"We need to go back down there," said Nina.

"Why does she keep saying that?" Asked Amber. "Please don't make me go!" She begged

"To keep risks at a minimum, Maybe we should just. Let one person go down there this time," said Fabian.

"Great plan, Fabs! I'll stay here and hold the fort," said Amber.

"I'll go," said Alfie.

"Alfie last time you had a freak out," said Aaron.

"Yeah and because of that we lost the sample of the elixir. I need to make up for that, so I'll go," said Alfie.

The club didn't knew was that Jerome had eavesdropped on the whole conversation.


Later that day. Jerome had come up with a plan to get more information about the treasure without Alfie knowing that he was using him. Jerome saw Alfie and Otis standing at their lockers and walked up to them.

"Hello guys," said Jerome.

"Hey Jerome," said Otis and Alfie in unison.

"Otis I was thinking about what you said yesterday and you were right," said Jerome.

"What was I right about?" Asked Otis.

"About that has been to long since the three of us, did something together. So let's have movie night," said Jerome.

"What kind of movie?" Asked Otis.

"How about Zombie Slasher the extended version," said Jerome, while he showed the DVD

"Whoa you've the extended version? Aren't those like 10 pounds extra? Asked Otis.

"Yes, there but, I've got some money now," said Jerome, while he showed Otis and Alfie the cash.

"Did you win the lottery or something?" Asked Alfie.

"Something like that," said Jerome. "So are you guys in?" He asked.

"Yeah, you can count me in," said Otis.

"Me too," said Alfie.

Otis and Alfie closed their lockers and walked towards the drama room. Jerome had a smug grin on his face, knowing that everything was going according to his plan.

In the meantime. Mara was in Mrs. Andrews's room writing for her speech before the debate. Fiona and Caitlin walked into the classroom.

"Hey Mara, said Fiona.

"Hello girls," said Mara.

"What are you doing?" Asked Caitlin.

"I'm preparing for the final debate," said Mara.

"Oh yes the debate is coming soon," said Caitlin.

'Yes, and I will make sure that my speech is so good that Amber does not even have to nerve to speak during the debate," said Mara.

"Oh yay, this totally nothing out of hand, said Caitlin," with a nervous chuckle in her voice

"Why do you say like that?" Asked Mara.

"Well ever since that fight you and Amber had, we notice a little bit of tension in the house," said Fiona

"A bit little? Just say a lot of tension, there is a super awkward silence during breakfast and supper and I can't stand awkward silence, makes nervous and uncomfortable," said Caitlin.

"Oh come on, it's not that bad, is it?" Asked Mara.

"Yes, no-one is talking anymore during breakfast or supper," said Fiona.

"Sorry I really didn't realize that the fight between me and Amber also affected the rest of the house," said Mara.

"We hope after the final debate, everything goes back normal," said Fiona.

A few hours later and it was lunch time. The club minus Alfie were talking about that Alfie volunteered to go in the cellar.

"Guys I don't know if it's such a good idea that Alfie's goes into the cellar alone. He scared of the place," said Patricia.

"Yeah, I agree with Patricia," said Amber.

"The poor guy's eye was twitching so much and fast, even faster than when Amber is sending out a text," said Aaron.

"And that says a lot," said Amber.

"Guys he's doing this to make up for last. He feels like it was his fault and he's doing this to redeem himself," said Fabian.

"Nina what do you think? Asked Aaron.

"I think we need to trust Alfie that he can do this. But I think that we need to stay in contact with him during his trip to the cellar," said Nina.

"We need walkie-talkies," said Fabian.


The hours passed by and school was over and the residents returned to Anubis house. Nina and Patricia were walking in the hallway when the saw Victor and Trudy talking.

"Are you still going out tonight? Asked Trudy.

"Yes, and I won't be back until morning. So will be responsible for lockup. And lights out, said Victor.

"Not a problem. I've got my pin, and it's ready to drop, joked Trudy.

With now knowing that Victor was going out tonight Nina and Patricia gathered the club and met in Nina and Amber's room.

"What's the meeting about?" Asked Fabian.

"So Victor is out till late, So tonight is definitely the night," said Patricia.

"Perfect this our chance to get into the cellar," said Aaron.

"Oh guys I kinda made plan to watch a movie with Jerome and Otis tonight," said Alfie.

"Alfie why did you do that?" Asked Amber.

"Well I didn't know at the time that tonight was going to be the night that I had to go into the cellar," said Alfie.

"That's true," said Amber.

"Can't you cancel. We may never get an opportunity like this again," said Aaron.

"No don't cancel it Alfie," said Fabian.

"What? Why not?" Asked Patricia.

"Look I know that Jerome is one of your best friends Alfie, but he's a sneak," said Fabian.

"Can't argue with that," said Patricia.

"If just cancels without a good explanation, Jerome might get suspicious and we can't have that," said Fabian.

"And what about Otis?" Asked Amber.

"Otis might annoying from to time. But he doesn't stick his nose into other people's business, like Jerome does," said Aaron

"So what are we going to do then?" Asked Nina.

"Alfie you're going the watch the movie with Jerome and Otis, once to movie is over you say that you want to bed. Once Jerome is asleep you sneak out and meet us in the kitchen," said Fabian.

"You want us the wait in the kitchen until Alfie's arrives?" Asked Amber.

"No, we'll stay here and keep in contact with the walkie-talkies that Patricia got for us," said Fabian.

"Sounds like a plan," said Aaron.

"Sibuna," said Fabian, while he did the Sibuna gesture.

"Sibuna," said the rest of the club, while they did the Sibuna gesture.

A few hours later and it was dinner time. The residents were having a quiet dinner, when Trudy entered the living room to tell them that Victor would going out tonight.

"Sweeties, I've news. Victor is going out for tonight and will be back in the morning," said Trudy.

"Yes, we've got the house to ourselves," said Jerome.

"Oh no, I'll be staying her tonight," said Trudy.

"Yay," said Caitlin.

"Trudy, if you like you can stay in our room tonight," said Fiona.

"Thank you sweetie, that would be lovely," said Trudy.

A few hours later. Jerome, Otis and Alfie were in the room of Jerome and Alfie watching a movie.

"Man it seems like forever since we did something with just the three of us," said Jerome

"Yes, the Golden Trio is back," said Otis.

"Yes, back in action, right Alfie?" Asked Jerome.

"Yes, yes, we are again," said Alfie

"We gotta pull a prank again, then we can really say we're back," said Otis

"I agree," said Jerome.

Alfie didn't really pay attention to what Jerome and Otis said or the movie. Alfie looked at the closet where he had hidden the walkie-talkie. The club could listen in via that walkie-talkie. After an hour the movie was over.

"That movie was epic," said Otis.

"Yes indeed, but now I'm really tired," said Alfie.

"Are you too tired to watch Zombie Slashers 2?" Asked Jerome.

"Whoa you've got Zombie Slashers 2? Asked Otis.

"Yes, I have the entire DVD box of the Zombie Slashers franchise. And they are all the extended versions," said Jerome.

"But a whole DVD box with extended versions of Zombie Slashers, doesn't that cost a lot of money?" Asked Otis.

"I know but these movies are worth it. So shall we watch?" Asked Jerome.

"Yes, of course I'll watch," said Otis.

"And you Alfie?" Asked Jerome.

"Um, yes of course I'm watching Zombie Slashers 2," said Alfie.

In the meantime, the club minus Alfie was in Nina and Amber's room, so they'd heard the whole conversation.

"Oh no, they're gonna watch another movie," complained Nina.

"I can't sit through such a horrible movie again," said Patricia

"Hey Amber don't fall asleep or we'll miss Alfie's signal," said Nina.

"No, no I didn't fall asleep," said Amber.

And half an hour and Alfie was still watching a movie. Alfie looked around and saw that Jerome and Otis had fallen asleep. Alfie checked if Jerome was asleep and when he thought he was really asleep he walked to the hiding place of the walkie-talkie.

"Alfie to Nina. Come in. Alfie to Nina. Are you reading me?" Over, said Alfie

"Nina to Alfie. Yes, I'm reading you loud and clear. Over," said Nina.

"Rendezvous in five minutes. Over," said Alfie.

"Got that. Over," said Nina.

Nina woke up the rest of the club to go to the kitchen. And at the same time Alfie was getting ready. Alfie put the walkie-talkie in his bag and left his room to change into his mission outfit. When Alfie left the room, Jerome opened his eyes. Jerome walked over to Alfie's bag and stole the walkie-talkie out of it and hid it under his pillow and pretend to sleep again.

A few minutes later Alfie was all dressed up. Alfie wore black boots, army print cargo pants, an army print t-shirt, an army print open button-shirt and on wearing an army print bucket hat. Alfie had stripes painted on his cheeks.

Alfie what are you wearing? Asked Aaron.

"Super Alfie's mission outfit, said Alfie.

"Take no notice. I think you look very nice, Alfie, said Amber.

"You know what you're doing, right?" Asked Nina.

"Getting a sample of the elixir. And looking for a demisphere, Whatever a demisphere might be," said Alfie.

"We'll stay here and keep watch in case someone is coming," said Fabian.

"And we'll contact you via the walkie-talkie. If you need to get out of there. Yeah?" Said Aaron

"Where is your walkie-talkie?" Asked Patricia.

"In here," said Alfie, while gesturing to his bag

"Okay, good luck," said Nina.

"Thanks. Amber," said Alfie

"Yeah?" Said Amber.

"Could I have a good luck kiss?" Asked Alfie.

"Aw, of course you can," said Amber.

Amber gave kiss on Alfie's cheek, which made Alfie very happy.

"Thanks. Super Alfie can face anything now," said Alfie.

"Okay, come on Super Alfie," said Nina.

Nina opened the door to the secret passage and Alfie crawled in the oven to go down to the cellar. The club headed upstairs to keep watch.

While the club headed upstairs, Alfie had arrived in the cellar. Alfie took out his flashlight and started searching for the elixir and the demisphere.

"There's no such thing as ghosts. There's no such thing as ghosts," said Alfie.

Alfie then realized that he was talking to himself.

"Stop talking to yourself. Stop talking to yourself," said Alfie.

While Alfie kept searching the cellar. The club was upstairs, trying to stay awake and to keep an eye out. Suddenly the club heard something.

"What was that?" Asked Patricia.

"It sounds like a car," said Fabian.

"Victor's car," said Nina.

"Oh no, Victor is back earlier," said Aaron.

Alfie was still down in the cellar and after searching for a while, he had found the bottle with the elixir in it. And at same Nina grabbed to walkie-talkie to contact Alfie, but little did she know, that Jerome had Alfie's walkie-talkie. Jerome was walking down the hallway.

"Nina to Alfie. Can you hear me? Victor is back! I repeat, Victor is back. Alfie, come in, please. Super Alfie, please come in," said Nina.

"Okay, got that," said Jerome, pretending to be Alfie.

"He got the message. That was close," said Nina.

Victor entered the house. Jerome hid as quickly as he got. The club saw that Victor was heading for the cellar. Nina tried to reach Alfie, but no answer. At the same time Alfie was still in the cellar searching for the demisphere. Suddenly Alfie heard the door of the cellar open and Alfie quickly found a hiding spot. Back with the club, who were still trying to warn Alfie.

"Alfie, come in, please. Super Alfie? Please come in," said Nina.

"Okay, thanks. over," said Jerome.

"Fabian, Aaron, you two should get back to bed. While Victor is down the cellar," said Nina.

"Okay," said Fabian.

"Let's go," said Aaron.

Fabian and Aaron headed back to their rooms. When the girls saw that Fabian and Aaron were safe in their rooms. Nina tried to reach Alfie again.

"Alfie, are you safe? Where are you?" Asked Nina.

"Yeah, I'm safe. In my room," said Jerome.

"He's safe," said Nina.

"Let's get back to our rooms too," said Patricia.

The girls headed back to their rooms. Meanwhile Alfie was still in the cellar. Once he thought to coast was clear, he quickly escaped the cellar. When Alfie was out of the cellar, he was about to go to his room, when he heard Victor coming. Alfie quickly hid in the sarcophagus, so that Victor wouldn't see him. Jerome sneaked up to the sarcophagus and locked it. Now Alfie was trapped and who's going to get him out.
