Chapter 1 (Nina's POV)

"How did this exactly happen?" [Amber]

"I don't know. She was already passed out when I found her. She was at the side of the house. You don't think somebody like, raped her, do you?" [Fabian]

"Heavens, no! Well, I don't think so." [Amber]

"Well, I hope she's okay. She has been out for at least three hours, right?" [Fabian]

"Sadly. You really did hurt her, Fabian. Maybe she hurt herself because of it." [Amber]"

"Amber, if that's what happen, I don't think I could live with myself. And I really thought it was Joy! She was wearing the same mask, and the same dress! You have to believe me." [Fabian]

"When you put it that way…" [Amber]

My head was pounding. My heart must be going a million times a minute. Who the heck is Amber? And where am I? What house? The last thing I remember was… Well, I don't really remember. Fabian is my best friend, but I have never heard of an Amber. Hmm.

I spring up, and the two of them eyeball me worriedly. Yep, I have never seen this blonde in my life. I don't recognize this room either.

"Nina?" Fabian asked, putting a hand on my shoulder. Amber smiles at me, but I don't smile back. It actually makes me feel a bit freaked, so I scoot closer towards Fabian. Fabian and Amber look at each other questionably and then back at me.

"Is something wrong, Nina?" The blonde asks me, and tries to come closer to me.

"Keep off!" I lean into Fabian.

"Nina, do you not remember Amber?" Fabian said, hugging me closer. Amber looked at him, and a sad look crossed over her. I really don't know who she is.

I stay near Fabian, and away from Amber. I don't want to go near her. She scares me. I have no idea who she is. Fabian's hand rubs my back, and Amber decides it's best to scoot back. Which I totally agree with.

I shook my head, and Amber almost freaks out. She runs over to (what I think is) her desk, and grabs a photo frame off of it. She runs back over, and hands me the frame. I take it cautiously, and look at the photo inside.

It's of Amber and I. I never remember having this taken. I don't remember posing with her, with a huge grin across my face. I hand it back to her, shaking my head. What's going on? I have never met Amber in my life. How could she have a photo of us together?

"Nina, do you remember what happened? I found you unconscious by the side of the house. Do you remember that at all?" Fabian asks me, still rubbing my back calmly. Amber still stays back, even though she looks like she was going to burst any second.

Something happened? I don't remember anything happening before this. I know I am best friends with Fabian, but I don't remember where I was. I remember being in London (They both are speaking British, duh), but not being here. I only know I was in London for some reason.

Maybe I was on a vacation with Gran. But then why would I be unconscious, by the side of the house? If I was on vacation, I would be at a hotel right now.

I shook my head.

"Well, so far, we know nothing of what happened to Nina, and she has no memory of Amber. Great." Fabian said, walking to the other side of the room, letting go of me. Amber walked along with him, still looking like a bomb that could explode at any second.

"And another thing, what exactly is this place?" I asked, raising my hand, forgetting that I'm not in school. I quickly put it down, and Fabian's face goes from confused to hopeless. Amber's "bomb" takes a rest.

"You don't remember the House of Anubis?" Fabian asks.

"The House of what?" I ask him. What kind of name is the House of Anubis? Why the heck is it called Anubis? Does that stand for something?

Fabian and Amber once again, exchange glances. Both of them look utterly confused.

"Oh my gosh Fabian, does she not remember the mystery?" Amber said, getting nervous. The mystery? How many memories of mine are gone? I don't remember a mystery, I don't remember anything Anubis, and I don't remember any Ambers! This is getting frustrating!

The confused look on my face said it all. Fabian let out a sigh, making me feel terrible. Obviously I was needed for it. What kind of mystery was it? Did somebody lose their dog or something?

"Yet, somehow, she remembers me." Fabian said, smiling at me. I smile back, and Amber crosses her arms. I think she might have been my best friend. She is surely acting like it. She seems nice, but I still don't want to trust her.

"Okay, so till we can get this figured out, let me give you the scoop. This house is a dorm for this school. This is your room, and I believe you told me you have a schedule somewhere in your desk. Amber is your best friend, and roommate. You can trust her." Fabian said, as he walks over toward my desk. He opens up the first drawer, and takes out a yellow piece of paper.

He hands me the piece of paper, and I look down my schedule. When did I start taking French?

"Okay. I trust you." I tell Fabian, and he smiles again. He waves, and he walks out of the room. He closes the door behind him quietly. What time was it?

I realize I was wearing a watch, and check. It was only four in the afternoon. I want to explore here. Fabian says I go to some school here, and I apparently live here. I should at least be able to look around.

"Amber, if you don't mind, could I go look around?" I ask her, and she nods. She was deep into thought, while managing her hair. I quickly get up, and open the door. The hallways don't seem familiar, but it does feel like a déjà vu.

I wonder where Fabian is. Maybe he is downstairs. I go down the stairs, and see a bunch of people in the living room (or so I think is the living room). Fabian isn't there. Where could he have gone? I go down the hall, trying my best to stay unnoticed.

I decide nothing was down this hall, and decide to go outside. Some fresh air would be nice. When was the last time I went outside? I can't even remember that. This is so pitiful.

I open the front door, and step outside. The warm air touches my face, making me smile.

Fabian said he found me at the side of the house. Maybe some clue of what happened laid there. I doubt he looked. He was probably more concerned about me than finding a clue. I would be.

I ran over to the first side of the house, and looked around in the small garden. There was absolutely nothing there. Maybe, with luck, there is something on the other side. I quickly run over, to see a garden that looks exactly the same as the other. I look anyways, and only find one thing that looks suspicious.

And it was nothing. Maybe there is nothing. Meaning, I have absolutely nothing.

"Hey Nina! Are you looking for something?" A voice asked, and I quickly turned around. It was some boy, who was very dark-skinned, and reminded me of… Well, I have no idea.

"Um, no…" I said, which sounded very unconvincing.

"Is it about the mystery?" He asked, and he came a little closer to me. It made me feel very uncomfortable. I have no idea who this kid is, and he keeps getting closer.

"No…"

He walked closer to me, until we were only about an inch apart from me. I moved away from him, and started walking back towards the front door. He followed me slowly, until I started running. After that, he started chasing me.

"Please, leave me alone!" I said, trying to open the front door. It was locked. How did I not think that would happen? I didn't think about knocking, and started running towards (what I think), is the school. The boy kept chasing me, and eventually pulled on my jacket. It stopped me in my tracks.

"Nina, what is going on?" The boy said, sort of chuckling. It's like he had no consideration for me at all. How does this kid know me? Does he go to the school? I have no reason to trust him. Fabian only said I could trust Amber. This isn't the blonde. And still, I was wary about Amber.

I looked at him intensely, nervously. I pushed him back, so he wouldn't be so close. But he took it the wrong way, and pushed me too. Who the heck does he think he is? Does he want to hurt me?

"Please, stop!" I said, starting to run again. He stopped me, and stepped in front of me.

"Nins, why are you running?" He asked, and I turned around to run the other way. I must have been making him upset, because he turned me around himself fiercely, and started yelling.

"Just stop, Nina!" He yelled, and as soon as he touched me, I screamed. He moved his hand quickly, not expecting that I would scream. I heard the front door slam open, and Fabian and Amber were standing there. They both started running over, and the boy stepped back.

"Alfie, what in the world are you doing?" Amber yelled, as she reached me. Fabian was way behind, as if he was keeping anger in, and was trying to calm down. Tears were falling down my face, and the boy (which I now assume is Alfie) had a confused look on his face.

Amber was about to lead me away, but I stopped her.

"Just stop! Please! Just, don't touch me! I-I don't know you!" I said, scooting back once again. Fabian, hearing the noise, now rushed towards me. He reminded me of Edward, and how he always rushed to Bella's side. I swear he was just as fast as him (but not really).

He put me into a hug, and I cried into his jacket. He shushed me, and Fabian asked Amber to talk to Alfie. She agreed, and pulled Alfie aside.

"What did he do, Nina?" Fabian asked when I relaxed a bit. We stopped hugging, so he could get a clear response.

"It was nothing. I-I just don't trust him because I don't know him."

"You don't remember Alfie either? Hmm." Fabian said, crossing his arms, watching Amber and Alfie. They were arguing, like an old couple does.

"Are they dating?" I ask, and Fabian laughs.

"Nobody knows. But don't change the subject Nina." Fabian said, going back to being serious.

I don't like serious Fabian. I like the fun Fabian, which somehow I remember. I don't remember anything I did with him though. But I remember everything about him. And that's a total mystery to me. Something I will never figure out in my lifetime.

"Let's go inside, and eat. I'm sure your starving. We can talk later about Alfie and the others." Fabian said, and he leads me inside. As he does, I turned around, and saw Amber with a frown. I didn't let her lead me away like Fabian was. In fact, I didn't even want her near me. Fabian said I could trust her, but I still have my doubts.

And I always will.

I already have 7 reviews! Woo! Ok, so I will post the next chapter when I have at least four more reviews. And also, when you review, feel free to write some suggestions for me! I always love to "weave" in people's ideas! Thanks for reading! This chapter was extremely hard to write, so if you have any ways to improve THIS chapter, also tell me!
