Hey guys! I'm back with chapter two! And dang, nine reviews! Thank you guys so much! Okay, I saw a story just like this on another archive, and I didn't want to copy it, this will still be mystery, but now it's kinda supernatural, sorry for the sudden change!


Chapter Two:

Andre's POV

Okay, Lyla just told me it's my turn to tell the story. Gladly. Okay so, I will start from Friday, the day where the real mystery began. All week, all of us where trying to find Sikowitz so we could ask him about the drumsticks. Apparently, he had fallen off a ladder and had to take a few days off. On Friday, when the bell rung, the other teens scampered out the door. Except for us fifteen. I went to the dusty old room first. As I had entered I looked around, I saw the torn wallpaper, and the old bored games, and more things covered in sheets. I saw a sheet covering some sort of table, it was right next to the glass case with the drumsticks in them. I was about to un-cover it, but I heard the door open again.

"Hey Andre." I heard a female voice say, aggravated. I looked up to see Rain. I was about to ask her why she was so mad, but then right after her I saw Jasper come in with his best friend Connor. That had explained everything. At that time, you would NOT want to be in the middle of a Rain/Jasper argument. It's like the next World War. No offense to Rain, she's a really good friend of mine. I felt a little bad for Connor though, he was always in the middle of those fights, being Jasper's best friend and all.

"Just admit it!" Jasper yelled to Rain. I looked over at Connor with a confused looked on my face. He just had shrugged like it was something normal.

"I'd rather eat my own eyeballs." Rain said sternly to him.

"What are you guys fighting about, this time?" I asked. Rain glared at me in a way that said I should shut up right about now.

"I'm just trying making Rain state the truth, she has always wanted to kiss me." Jasper said like it was some sort of scientific fact. I had laughed at that. I laughed so hard that my eyes were watering.

"See, Andre agrees that's stupid! Why are boys always so idiotic?" Rain mumbled to herself.

"Hey!" Connor yelled joining the conversation.

"You're a part-time idiot." Rain stated and Conner looked relieved and confused at the same time. I looked over at the table again. My hand snuck to the cover, but once again, I was interrupted by the door. I groaned and looked to see who was entering. I saw Cat and Cherry come in giggling and squealing, with Jade and Beck following.

"I need an aspirin." Jade stated. Beck had his arm around her, and in the other arm was a brown and white coffee cup. He handed it to her.

"Here's some coffee." Beck said, and Jade snatched it away from his palm.

"Good enough." Jade mumbled taking a sip. I heard some giggles from the side of the room. I looked over a bit and I say Cherry and Cat laughing while Cat was combing Cherry's hair. Unsurprisingly, they where best friends, and still are. They both liked the same things, and agreed with each other a lot. More people entered.

"Hey guys." Lyla greeted us, with her cool British accent (You have to admit, British accents are cool...) as she walked in with her good friend, Alex. Most of us waved back or said 'hey'. Cat giggled.

"You two walked in together! That's so couple-y!" Cat yelled as she waved her arms around, and Cherry nodded with agreement. You could see Lyla and Alex blush a bit.

"We're just friends, Cat." Alex said gently to her, and Lyla smiled and agreed.

"Phooey." Cat and Cherry said together. Basically after that, whoever wasn't there already came in one by one, with the exception of Robbie and Rex.

"So we just stay here and watch the drumsticks...? Sounds easy enough." Beck said calmly.

"What a way to spend the weekend." Chuck mumbled, that was one of the first times I had actually heard him say something.

I looked at the table again, it was getting boring, I needed some sort of entertainment. I had might as well un-cover the sheet. But someone interrupted me.

"Maybe we should see what's under that table." Tilly said to everybody.

"That's a good idea." Robbie mumbled happily as he and Beck went on opposite sides of the table and started lifting the heavy sheet off the large table.

"SERIOUSLY?" I had yelled, frustrated that it was my idea. Cherry was giggling at my silliness, so was Cat, and everyone else gave me a strange look. I swear right there I blushed with embarrassment. Well at least they where going to un-cover the table. But little did I know that, the table that Beck and Robbie where about to un-cover was going to change everything, (Dude, don't give away so much! I realize you want to be dramatic but you're ruining the surprise for everyone! Sorry Jasper.)

When Beck and Robbie had taken off the sheet, we looked at what might have been just a pool table. But the strange thing was, there was no pockets on the sides, or any sticks or balls anywhere in the room. But then, Tori had realized something that we had not. We didn't look at what was on the table, we had just been looking at the side-view.

"Guys, look at this..." Tori softly said pointing to the table-top. I looked closely, even though what was on there was bid enough for everyone to see. There was the words "OPEN ME." in large, gold, cursive letters. We all looked confused. Open what? I was thinking at the time. I could tell everyone was thinking the same thing.

"I found something..." Jade mumbled, pointing to a very small, microscopic button under the table. How the heck did she notice that? I better not question Jade though...

"Should we press it?" Connor asked, walking around the table.

"I guess, we can see what it'll do. Maybe it like, lights up or something like that." I answered. Then I realized nobody's finger was getting to the button. I looked at Jade.

"I found the button, my work here is done." Jade replied to the look I was giving her. I sighed. Rain had rolled her eyes.

"Big babies." She mumbled under her breath and pressed the button quickly. For about twenty seconds, nothing happened. "See, nothing to worry about, it's just another old, abandon-" But Rain was cut off by a large noise being made by the table. The top was sliding down until it made a large, Thump! on the ground. All of our heads circled to see what was inside. We saw a thing that caused the whole situation, the thing that change our lives...

A pure gold sphere.


I apologize about not updating, but I have been busy with some drama going on in my life, and, on top of that, I have baseball practice. And I know you guys are confused about the end of this chapter, you will see in later chapters how the sphere ties in with the drumsticks. Seeya guys later.
