The Seeker's Daughter.
Chapter 1: The Arrival
It was two weeks into a new school year and for the Sibuna gang, there wasn't any mystery on their hands. Surprisingly for them though it didn't feel normal as they were so used to spending all of their time battling old Egyptian spirits and trying to save the world. Not having a mystery did have its positives though; as it gave everyone the time to be doing the things that they didn't usually have the time for. Patricia and Eddie for example were just coming through the doors of Anubis house after a Friday night date. Hands were being held and there was a lot of laughter coming from the two of them.
"Okay would you rather lick an old man's smelly armpit or chew someone's rotten yellow toenail?" Eddie asked Patricia.
"That's easy, I'd rather lick an old man's smelly armpit" Patricia replied.
"Why?" Eddie questioned curiously.
"I'm afraid of feet" she shrugged.
"So I had a good time tonight" Eddie smiled, placing his hands around Patricia's waist.
"Me too" Patricia replied.
"And I'm going to kiss you now" Eddie whispered, leaning in towards her. Just as the two were about to kiss, Eddie heard a familiar laugh coming from the common room, which he found rather distracting. "That sounds like my Sister" Eddie panicked before marching into the common room to find out if he was right or not.
When Eddie entered the room a look of surprise and slight fear washed over his face. His younger sister was stood right in front of him. It looked as if she was entertaining the rest of Anubis house because everyone was finding something highly amusing. Why was she here though? Eddie knew that their Mother would never have let her come here; it wasn't a safe place for her.
"Hey Eddie, you're Sister is great" Joy smiled and it seemed that everyone else agreed.
"Erica what are you doing here?" Eddie asked, ignoring Joy.
"It's nice to see you too Eddie" Erica replied sarcastically, she was a lot like her Brother.
"What are you doing here?" he asked again.
"I've come to meet my Father of course" she told him.
"You have some explaining to do because we both know that Mom would never of let you come here and you've come alone, your only twelve years" Eddie replied.
"Okay long story short, Mom went on a four month cruise around the Caribbean and left me with Auntie Jenny. Auntie Jenny then had a crisis, which is such a long story. So I told her I would go and stay at a friend's house and here I am" Erica explained.
"Erica you need to go home. You know that Mom doesn't allow you to come here. What are you going to do when Mom finds out? What are you going to do about school?" A very worried Eddie replied. The fact that his Mother didn't know that Erica was here made the current situation far worse.
"When I meet my Dad I'm sure he will let me go to school here and I'm sure I can make this work so Mom doesn't find out" Erica told him.
"You can't meet him" Eddie protested.
"That's not fair. Why should you get to know our Dad and I don't? Do you think you're more important than me or something?" Erica questioned. "I've waited twelve years to meet my Dad and now that I have an opportunity, I'm going to take it" she told him.
"You can't meet him" Eddie told her once again.
"Well I'm going too" she replied, beginning to exit the room.
"Erica get back here!" Eddie called after her but it was too late she had already left Anubis House.
Eddie panicked; his Mother had always forbidden Erica from meeting her Father, Mr. Sweet. He didn't quite understand why but he understood that his Mother had a good reason for doing so. He respected his Mothers opinion. Eddie knew that he had to stop them from meeting; he had to do something but feared that he may have been too late.
"Eddie I'm sure things will be fine" Patricia said, trying to comfort him as she noticed the stress on her boyfriends face.
"It won't be. You don't understand my Dad left before my Mom told him that she was pregnant with Erica" Eddie explained. "He doesn't know about her" he added before running out of the house to try and stop Erica…
