ONTO THE CHAPTER!
Eddie's POV
Sure, maybe I only knew Nina for two months in the summer, but I felt like I've known her my whole life. She was to close to everyone at Anubis for this to happen, I was even hoping to be able to hang out with her a little more. "Ok, so, whats the plan?" Kt's words pull me from my deep thinking. "Well, I thought that we could go to the scene of the crime, and try to find any evidence of where we could look." I say, just as Patricia enters the room, holding a stack of papers. "Or, we could look through these, recent kidnappings list." she says dropping them on the coffee table in Kt's basement. "Most have been tracked to Holly Wood." she states, pulling one paper away at a time. She was right. Most of these people were tracked down to Holly Wood, then were never seen again. One boy, who must be about our age now, was named George, his eyes were light blue and he had light brown hair. "Look, they say they tracked Nina there too." Patricia says, pulling out another piece with Nina's photo on it. "So, I say we still check her Gram's house, but then we go to Holly Wood." Amber speaks for the first time in a while. Since we got off the plane, she has been on her phone. Who knows what she is doing, but whenever she is, she become overcast, like a pink rain cloud. "Ok, so, who's going to the house?" Joy asks. "Well, I am." I say. Fabian raises his hand, and so does Amber, and Patricia. "Ok, so, me, Fabian, Amber and Patricia will go check her house, then when we get back, we head to Holly Wood." I say. Everyone nods, and Kt stands. "I'm going to tell my mom the school is taking us on a trip to visit Holly Wood." she says as she walks away. "So, lets head out." Fabian says, getting up and leading us out the door to my car, which Kt help me get from my house.
While we were driving, Amber was on her phone, looking at something. "Amber, what are you looking at?" Fabian asks. Amber looks up and blushes. "Just at some old photos." she mutters. Fabian still looks confused, but I understand. She is looking through old photos of Nina. I did the same the first couple days of her disappearance. As we drive, a red light stops us, and my eye sight turns white. 'Hurry Osirian! Your Chosenone will not survive long if you take this much time!' Yells the strange voice. Before my eye sight returns, an image of Nina, in a chair that looks like it is used for torture. I gasp for breath. "Eddie, you ok?" Amber asks and Fabian nods to what she is saying. "Ya, but Nina might not be." I whisper to the blond in the front seat. I know she will keep this a secret from Fabian, so he won't freak out. We continue driving until we reach the familiar house. It's hard to miss which window is Nina's, it's covered in Egyptian hieroglyphics. "Ok, we need to speak to her Gram, and see if she knows anything, then, we check out her room." Fabian says. I nod as we park the car. We get out and walk to the front door. "I imagined my first time being at Nina's house, would involve Nina being here." Amber mutters sadly. Fabian agrees sadly. I ring the door bell, and soon after, none other than Nina's Gram answers the door. "Oh, hello Eddie." she says, wiping a fresh tear away. I smile sadly. "Hey. Um, this is Fabian and Amber." I say. "Friends of Nina from Britain." I say. Her eyes brighten. "Oh, Nina spoke so much of a Fabian, and a Amber. She loved you kids a lot." she mummers. Amber smiles. "Well, may we come in?" she asks kindly. Nina's Gram nods, with a smile, as if happy to have other people connected to Nina in her house, and leads the way to the living room. "So, isn't today in England the first day of school? What brings you here?" she asks us all. "We came to find Nina." Fabian says. Her eyes go dark for a moment. "Oh deer, you have amazing hope that you can find her." she whispers. I sigh. "Um, Gram, do you know anything about Nina's connection to Egypt?" I ask. Her eyes widen. "No, what are you saying?" she asks worriedly. "This is going to seem bazaar, but Nina is whats known as the Chosenone. Just being the Chosenone got her into a lot of trouble. And, in the last two years, Nina found two Egyptian artifacts that were deemed not real. Before the summer, she gave one to our friend Mara. Then, right before she went missing, she told our friend Jerome where the other one was." I say. She thinks for a while. "How do you know this Eddie?" she asks in a weak voice. I sigh. "Because I'm her Osirian, or protector. And I failed my job to protect her, so it's my job to get her back." I say sincerely. By now, her eyes are huge, and then understanding flashes through her face. "No wonder after she got back form her first year she was suddenly so interested in all things Egypt." she says. Fabian smiles. "Now that you understand, do you mind if we see if she left any clues in her room?" Fabian asks. She nods. "Go on ahead." she says pointing to the stairs. We all get up and walk up the stairs, to the first room in the hall. "Here we go." Amber says who holds the doorknob to the room Nina was once always in. When the doors open, I can see her room. Same purple walls, same bed, same books, same random chain under the bed... WAIT! What!? I push past Amber, and grab the chain. "How the hell did the police not see this!?" I shout angrily. Fabian and Amber gather around the object. "Why is this in Nina's room?" Amber asks. I shrug. "She doesn't wear any chains except..." Fabian trails off. "No!" Fabian yells, leaning down, reaching under the bed to try and find something. I think it over and realize what he's looking for, and join him and Amber. "Well, it's not here." Fabian says desperately. Nina's eye of Hourus necklace was gone, only leaving the chain behind.
