Thank you for the reviews! It makes me happy! Now here's is my next chapter.

The Secret of the Locket

"Ah!" Mara shot straight up. Her vision was blurry at first. Her head hurt so much she fell right back into a sleep. Then from there things got a little weird.

Mara opened her eyes. Looking around she realized she wasn't Anubis House anymore. So where was she? It was white room with blinding light. Has she lost her mind? Yeah, quite possibly.

"Mara," a voice called. "Mara. Over here. It's me, Nina!" Nina? She was here?

"Nina?" Mara called. "Is that you?" There was no response. She tried again. "Nina? Is that you?" Mara walked around the place aimlessly, looking for the Sibuna leader. "Nina? Where are you? Nina?" Was it really that hard to find a person like her in place like this? Apparently, yes it was. "Nina? Nina? Nin-ah!" Mara was pulled behind a door, that appeared out of nowhere.

"Sh!" Nina? It was. It was Nina!

"Nina? Is that you? Oh, my God, I thought, you were-"

"Sh! Let's not get caught," Nina said. Caught? Caught by whom?

"What you mean?"

"Look," the Sibuna girl said. Sure enough there were three people. A man, a woman, and a small girl around the age of six of seven.

"Where are we?"

"Outside, Anubis House, I think," Nina said. "That girl, I have seen her before, but I can't remember where," Nina murmured.

"Anubis? This doesn't look like Anubis House. It looks nothing like the school campus!"

"I know, but it seems weird. I feel like I know the place. What year is it?"

"I-I don't know," Mara replied. She really did hate not knowing.

"I wonder if... No! That can't be right, can it?" Nina questioned herself. It seemed more as if she trying to prove herself wrong than talking to Mara. She has been doing a lot of that lately.

"Um, Nina? Who is that and what they doing in Anubis House?"

"I'm not sure, Mara, but if I correct I think we're seeing a memory; a vision of the past."

"The past?" OK, now Mara was completely confused.

"Yeah, I think we are seeing Anubis House in the 1900s. 1921 to be exact."

"How do you know, Nina? I mean a vision of the past, how?" There was no reply from Nina. "Nina?" Mara looked down and saw Nina's locket glowing. What the-? Even here the locket glow, what's up with that? Looking back at Nina, she realized that Nina was stiff as a stone. "Uh, Nina are you-" The locket glowed brilliantly and light surrounded the two girls. Mara felt herself go stiff and forced to look into Anubis's windows and listen to the following conversation:

"Mother, Father, you are back so soon? Why?" the little girl asked. She was sweet and innocent. Her face was pale, her eyes a brilliant blue, and had blonde hair with pig tails on the side of her head. She only looked six, Mara noted, but talked almost like an adult.

"We couldn't bare not see you, sweet," the mother said.

"Egypt was beautiful, my dear, but not as lovely as my dear daughter," the father said as picked his young girl and spun her in his arm. She giggled. Her mother smiled. It was sweet family moment.

"How was Victor, darling?" the mother asked. The girl stiffened. Mara had heard about Victor, but didn't get the full story. Maybe this vision will.

"Fine, Mother, but..." the girl.

The father pressed on. "But what, my dear? Go on; no one is going to hurt you Sarah," he said. Sarah? A jolt went down Mara spine, and apparently the same went for Nina.

"Victor, was mean to me. He called me names, mean ones, papa. They hurt me," young Sarah said, holding back tears. Wait Victor? But Victor's like old. Why then yell at Sarah? Victor always yelled at the Anubis kids, but never called them rude words to them. Maybe behind their backs maybe, but not to their faces. So why Sarah?

"Wait, Sarah, honey, which Victor? Victor Sr. or Victor Jr., dear?" Sarah's mother asked. Two Victors! The thought of one already freaked Mara out, now two? So did that mean the Victor at Anubis now is Jr. or Sr. Mara went with Junior.

"His son, Victor. They hurt me, mama. Why? Is Victor not my friend any more?" young Sarah asked her parents. Mara's heart reached out to the little girl. Here she was friends with Victor Jr. who in turn says rude things her. Poor Sarah.

The Frobisher-Smythe parents looked at each other, wondering what to say. Victor Jr. was such a sweet boy, who love Sarah with all his heart. Why he would do this to their daughter was beyond them. Sarah's father looked at Sarah's mother as if asking her if he should do something. She nodded her head.

Meanwhile, Sarah was crying was sniffling. Why her best friend would do this to her saddened her. She thought they were friends, she thought they would protect each other. Sarah felt betrayed, she felt sad. Victor was her friend, or at least Sarah thought he was.

"Sarah, honey?" Sarah turned her head towards her smiling father. He really knew how to make her feel better.

"Yes, Father?"

"Would like a present?" A present?

"Yes, Father," Sarah sniffled. Her father pulled out a locket. Not just any locket, the Eye of Horus locket. Nina's locket. Mara felt shivers go done her spine. This is the locket. The locket.

"What is this, Father?" Sarah asked. It was pretty. It shimmered in the light. It was mystical. She would keep it forever.

"It's called the Eye of Horus, Sarah. It's a symbol of protection. It can protect you from anything you want. It can even open doors to a brand new adventures and treasures. In fact, I have hidden a treasure in this house, my dear," her father said.

"A treasure?" Sarah asked, her eyes shining with spirit.

"Yes, dear. Only the sly and cunning can solve the mystery and find the treasure. But here's the thing you can't tell anyone. It's only for you and those you are willing to find and protect the secret. So, can I trust you?"

"Yes, Father. You can count on me! I'm gonna protect the treasure of our home. The treasure of Anubis. But daddy, how will I find these treasures, if they are hidden?"

The dad chuckled at his daughter's curiosity. "Well, the Eye will show the way, if you can follow my clues correctly. Are ready, Sarah, for a grand adventure?"

"Yes. Yes, I am!"

"Then, let's go!" Sarah's father picked her up, put her on his back and they flew around the house. Sarah held up the Eye of Horus and began to glow. A bright red-orange light filled the air and everything turned to black.

Groaning, Mara got up and saw Nina in a feeble position.

"Nina!"

Mara ran towards Nina, only to be knocked back by an invisible force.

"What the-?"

Nina's form changed into a form vaguely familiar. Her form was...was... Sarah? An older Sarah, but Sarah. However the form kept shifting from Nina to Sarah. Fabian was right, Nina did look like young Sarah, she didn't imagine that Nina would become Sarah. The area around Nina/Sarah changed into Anubis House. This Sarah looked to be about 15 or 16. Meaning about 10 years as past since the previous vision. Based on what Nina said, Sarah's parents died when Sarah was young. So that meant Mr. and Mrs. Frobisher-Smythe have dead for some time.

To Mara, it looked like as if Nina/Sarah was trying escape Anubis House. Nina/Sarah was banging on the front doors and was pulling at them. Behind Nina/Sarah was the-the-the Raven man. Mara tried to scream, "Look out! Behind you!" when she realized she was only watching the vision and since it was a memory, Mara couldn't do anything even if she tried.

Nina/Sarah turned and saw the Raven.

"So, we meet again, Sarah Frobisher-Smythe," he said.

"I suppose we do," Nina/Sarah said.

Mara glance at Nina/Sarah's locket. It was glowing, ready to protect it's owner.

"So, now, what are going to do now? No one's here to save you. Mr and Mrs. Zeno are out and little Rufus isn't here, so that means there's no one here to protect. No even Victor. Oh, joy!" The Raven said gleefully.

Mara felt a strong urge to punch the living crap out of this guy. The audacity that this guy has.

Nina/Sarah looked around and she did the only thing she knew how to, she ran.

"Oh, no you don't. Come here, you girl," he snarled.

Mara felt herself shift upwards towards Victor's office. The Raven had locked door and cornered Nina/Sarah.

"What are going to do now? Oh, I know, nothing!" He lunged for the girl. Suddenly the house shook and Nina's/Sarah's locket glowed brilliantly and shot a red-orange light, making the Raven fly back and hit his head against Victor's door.

"Agh! You insolent girl!" The Raven lunged again for the girl. Nina/Sarah picked up a letter opener held it in her hand like a dagger and when the Raven came close to her, she took it and slashed it across his mask and stabbed in his arm.

"Ah!" he squawked in pain.

Nina/Sarah made a mad dash for the door, but the Raven caught her with his good arm.

"You foolish girl! You shouldn't have done that!" He took the letter opener and prepared to stab the girl. As his hand came down, the house shook violently, the walls turned a bright red-orange color and the locket shone and blasted a brilliant light. The Raven flew back, hit the window, crashed through it and landed on the ground, dead.

Unbelievable, Nina/Sarah, not only did she almost do the same thing Mara did, she actually killed the Raven. Nina/Sarah used whatever strength she could, and fell to ground. Everything around Mara shook, a bright light flashed and everything turned to black.

OK, if you didn't figure it out already, the whole chapter was a vision of the past. How this happened might be explained in the next chapter. But what will happen, is an appearance by Jerome. Yes, Jerome and the Rufus fiasco has not been forgotten. We get to see Jerome and how he's holding up against Rufus. And you will see more Jara, a little Fabina, a dash of Moy (Mick x Joy) and a hint of Amlfie.

Oh, and review!
