Song: breathe electric- emotion


Sarah (martin)'s pov:

I didn't need to be here. I didn't want to be here. Staring out at the three teenagers clambering from their car on the far side of the path it sets in my head. There's them and then there's me. They're related to their parents, they have that connection to the place and I don't, simple as.

"WILLOW!" My head stares ahead as one of my mums, KT, dives towards the weird woman and sweeps her up into a hug. God! It would have been alright if I had gone to the secondary school my real parents went to, I could research, investigate. Despite Nina telling me over and over that there's plenty to Anubis house I find myself completely under whelmed.

Ahead the parents are happily chatting away to what I gather is Jerome and Willow, I know them all, I've studied their lives countless times, and I'm still a complete outsider. Yey me.

"Hey there gorgeous!" I cock an eyebrow and stare at the spiky idiot approaching me.

"Don't even bother" I say slowly, studying my hand.

"Whatever grunge queen, you know you like, I mean damn, just look at me" he whispers. I quickly proceed to mime tearing my eyes out and brush past him. Idiot. Grunge queen? Really? Sure all I'm wearing is sweats and a hoodie, but its September and cold, I'm being practical.

"I'm really sorry about my brother, he can be a bit much at times" I stare at the girl and other boy who are approaching me now. They both look equally odd.

"I don't care" I mutter rolling my eyes. Sweet Jesus please take me away.

"So... You have two mums" the second boy this time. I grit my teeth, I am not putting up with any homophobes this year!

"Have you got a problem with that?" I growl, pushing his back a step. I regret it instantly when I see his eyes deep with shock and.. Fear, fuck. I forget some people find it hard to handle a little physical confrontation.

"I-I don't care, I was just, you know enquiring.. Its nice and-"

"Ok, I get it, shut up" I groan, drawing each word out. God they were all so bloody annoying. Damn, I really am in a foul mood today.

"Yeah come puke, calm your tits" the second boy bounds up again, ruffling up 'pukes' hair. He pushes him off and quickly re-arranges it.

"Don't listen to hedgehog here" the girl sighs "his name's Luke, I'm Rayne and the prep is-"

"John, Clarke John" John interrupts, waggling his eyebrows at me, a mischievous look on his pointed face.

"Charmed" I drawl sarcastically "the name's Sarah" and with that I leave the three and walk up to my parents.

Soon enough a third car comes along and the pair of parents tense eagerly, all refusing to leave until each family arrived. Its large, a deep pink. Flashy and un-necessary. Quickly, I scan my internal files on the couples Nina had told me about, and sure enough a glamorous blonde and goofy looking middle aged guy leap from the car, embracing the others quickly.

Two kids follow suite, a boy and a girl. The guy is pretty good looking actually, a little gormless definitely some eye candy. He proudly wears a football t-shirt and his shoes are completely immaculate, practically glowing white (as were his teeth) and I knew, despite any redeeming qualities, I wasn't going to like him much. The girl however seems much more fun. Despite being fashionably dressed in pink, her deep blue eyes sparkle with a hint of amusement and I could see her calculating every inch of the ground in front of her. She grinned lopsidedly at me and tottered up to where all the teens had seemed to congregate.

A hand flew into Luke's face and he seemed stunned for a few seconds, staring at the candyfloss coloured nail varnish. "The name's Princess". Silence. "Princess Poodle Lewis". You have got to be shitting me. Luke laughs first, his cheeks on fire as he can't help but let out a giggle and we all begin.

"Please, please tell me that's a joke" I splutter. Her eyes light up but she shakes her head, grinning widely.

"Nope, that's my name, isn't it just fab" I stare around. Honest to god Luke seems in awe of her, Rayne just grins and despite the initial delay I can see John getting ready to play the moves.

"Well then, I just can't wait to be your king hunny" he says, sauntering up. But before he reaches her a hand lands heavily on his shoulder.

"Don't" its the guy from earlier, his muscle head obviously able to comprehend John's very 'subtle' pickup line.

"Yeah, yeah, cool man" John mutters, brushing himself off and quickly retreating. I snort.

"I'm Brad, Amber and Alfie's son" he nods at us and I nod back, trying my best to look slightly like a caveman. After introducing ourselves again, the six of us plonk down onto the ground and wait for the other Anubis residents to arrive.


Ok, I think that ones a bit longer. I'm not totally keen on it, but hey, whatever. Anyways rate and review, and tell me who you like the best so far. The next chapter will hopefully be the last of the arrivals and then the story can behind (sorry if this is totally tedious, its just a lot of characters so I want them all to stand out). oh and also, should I introduce sibuna and the mysteries, or keep it strictly teen drama? Toodle pip, cheerio, see you next update
