Nina's pov
It's been a few days since Christmas and we're still somewhat trapped in the house. Yes the snow had stopped, and the snow is beginning to melt, but between the freakishly cold temperature and the slippery ice covering the roads, we'll be stuck here for a while.
'I'm so bored.' I say plopping on the couch next to Fabian in the common room and lying my head on his lap.
'Me too...' Fabian breathed.
'Believe it or not, but I kind of wish there was a mystery to keep us busy.' I say closing my eyes.
'What about that rose?' he asks as he starts to flip through the channels on TV.
'I really don't know, I was thinking about going into the attic. For all we know, the whole mystery could be there.' I sigh. 'You want to go tonight?'
'Or we could go now...' Fabian suggested.
'Come on.' I say getting up.
We walk up the stairs and make our way to the door which hasn't been opened since last term.
I take out my bobby pin and unlock the door showing the dark place ahead.
We walk up the steps, the only sounds being the an occasional squeak of a mouse or our foot steps.
'Look...' Fabian said after a moment of silence. In his hand was a weathered down book, "The Dark Rose" written across the top.
'A journal?' I asked myself, running my fingers over the written words.
Slowly Fabian opens the book, to see every page filled with, you guessed it, hieroglyphics.
'Lets get back and translate this.' I say
'Ok-' Fabian began to say before being interrupted by a slam of the attic door.
'Come on,' I say pulling him behind the wall to hide.
We slouch down and see Victor walking around a frown present on his face, as if it ever leaves...
'Finally...' he says taking a page from a shelf and scanning it quickly.
Without another word he stuffs the paper in his pocket and leaves the attic, the slamming of the door making me jump.
'Let's head back.' I whisper.
We walk down the steps and I lock the door behind us.
*20 minutes later*
'Finished' I sighed.
'You finished the first page?' Fabian asked getting off his computer.
'Yeah, it says "Thy rose and the chosen,born on the 7th of July on the 7th hour,has the simplest but most powerful being of all, but when together it can cause true terror. But the shelter in coordinates 40 degrees North and 20 degrees West holds the only substance that can destroy the rose, only this or the death of the chosen will make the Earth again at peace."' I finished.
'The death of the chosen?' I asked, my voice cracking, tears starting to fall down my cheeks.
'Or the destroying of the rose..' Fabian added. 'Nina, nothing is going happen to you, I promise.' he whispered putting his hand on my shoulder.
Smiling, I give him a tight hug.
'Thank you...' I say into his shirt.
'No problem.' he said kissing the top of my head.
'I'm scared...' I admit. 'We should probably tell the others.'
'Yea...' he agreed.
'Nina! There you are! I've been looking everywhere for-oops!' Amber said as she ran into the room.
'Hello Amber.' I said giving her a small wave.
'Where were you guys, I almost thought Rufus came back to life and kidnapped you guys or something.' she said.
'Well, Fabian and I went up to the attic and look at what he found.' I said handing her the journal.
'The Dark Rose! Finally Sibuna's back in business!' she squealed.
'Look's that way!' I smiled.
'So what does this stuff mean?' she said looking through the book.
'Basically it means we have to go to some type of "shelter" where there's a substance that will destroy the rose.' I summed up, skipping the part about my death and the terror.
' Where is this shelter?.' she asked.
'I don't know, thats why I'm calling a Sibuna meeting, at 5 ok?' I asked.
'Ok I'll tell the others.' she smiled before leaving.
*5:00*
'Ok, so earlier today Fabian and I went up to the attic and Fabian found this journal. Inside is says there's some shelter that has a substance that can destroy the rose... We have to find it or as it says in the clue, we all will experience true terror.' I finished explaining.
'So where is this "shelter"?' Patricia asked.
'Fabian?' I asked turning to him as he studies the map.
'By the looks if it, this shelter is in the woods.' Fabian said.
'There's a shed in the woods, I saw it the other day, we can get there in no time if we hurry.' I exclaimed, already putting on my jacket.
'Um don't you think someone will notice if 80 percent of the house is gone?' Patricia asked.
'You're right... 2 of us should go.' I said.
'I vote Nina and Fabian!' Amber squealed.
'But won't Mick ask questions... Maybe Amber and I should-
'No,no,no,no,no! I am not going in those scary woods!' Amber screamed.
'Come on Amber, Sibuna?' I asked putting my hand over my eye.
'Ugh! Fine...Sibuna.' she said putting her hand over her eye as well.
'That's the spirit!' I smiled walking towards the door.
As we get to the final step, and Amber has already done enough whining to last a lifetime.
'Amber, it'll be fine, just calm down.' I say.
'I know...' she said walking outside.
'Nina,' Fabian said as I was about to walk out.
'Yeah?' I asked.
'I don't know if you guys should-
'We'll be fine Fabian...' I smiled. 'Listen, if we're not back in 30 minutes, come for us, ok?' I said putting one hand on his arm.
'Alright, be safe.' he said giving me a small smile...
'I will, bye.' I said kissing him on the cheek before walking outside.
'Ready?' I asked Amber, the sun just setting.
'I guess..' she said.
'Well lets go!' I say starting to walk towards the woods.
*10 minutes later*
'Here it is!' I say coming up to the old shed.
'Are you sure we should go in there?' Amber asked walking reluctantly up to the shed.
'Yes, now come on.' I said pulling her to the shed.
I opened the door to see it filled with books and bottles.
'Yes!' I exclaimed, already beginning to searched the bottles.
'Which bottle do you think it is?' she asked.
'I don't know... this one!' I said looking at the glittery black liquid in a small bottle.
'Are you sure that's it?' Amber asked coming up next to me.
'I think so...' I said looking at it.
'Well let's get out of here, this place is giving me the creeps.' she said.
'Ok...' I say walking to the door. I try to open the door but it won't budge.
'Amber... It won't open.' I say.
'What?' she screamed coming to the door.
'Open, open, open, open, open!' she screamed at door.
' Don't worry Amber, I told Fabian to come if we're not back in 30 minutes..' I say.
'Whew that's good!' she smiled.
'Lets just look at some more stuff until they come.
I walk over to a broken window and started at the trees.
'Nina, do you smell smoke?' Amber asked.
'Now that I think about it, yeah I do...' I look back outside and everything looks normal.
'Amber...' I said looking back out.
The windows start to fog with smoke as an orange flick of light starts to block out the rest of the view.
'Oh no...' Amber whispered.
Please come soon Fabian...
