I am so so so so sorry. I just quickly uploaded it. I fixed it though. I'm sooo sorry.

Rufus: haha! I have you now!

Nina: Not yet!

Starshine: I don't own the disclaimer!

Nina: *runs away*

Rufus: *chases her*

Starshine: Well that was…

Fabian: *jumps out of bushes* I gotta save Nina!

Starshine: :O

Nina's POV

Great. Rufus is here. Just…great. Of course I did the natural thing, I asked him what he wanted.

"Just you, girl."

No! This is supposed to be my LAST normal day! He can't ruin it! But he SOOOO just did!

So I did the second natural thing when someone's trying to kidnap you and turned around and ran away. I ran and ran until I thought I lost him. And then I turned the corner and saw him buying a pretzel. Wow, but I guess even criminals need to eat. But seriously? Now? Well I took the chance and ran into the nearest store, which happened to be Petland.

Normally I would run into here and pet all the rabbits and ferrets but I was a little too occupied. I hid behind a shelf and thought. Town is basically a big circle. If I ran long enough then I would eventually get to the food court again. But the closest way there is blocked by Rufus eating a pretzel.

So I called Fabian.

(F: = Fabian talking

N: = Nina talking)

F: Hello?

N: FABIAN! I NEED YOUR HELP!

F: What's wrong?

N: I was in town with Mick and Rufus showed up! I need you to get down here!

F: I'm kind of…already there…

N: What?

F: I'm at the food court in town.

N: Ok, I'm not gonna even ask why. But I'm at Petland! Help me please!

F: Ok I'll be there in five.

I hung up, ok was Fabian stalking me or something? Nevermind I have way more important things to worry about. Like the fact that Rufus just walked into Petland! Eating a pretzel! Pleaseee someone kick him out for eating in here! Pleaseeee!

Luckily the manager came out and made him leave. Five seconds later Fabian walked in…wearing all black? Ok I'm pretty sure he was stalking me. But once again MORE IMPORTANT PROBLEMS! My ex boyfriend from America! What the heck was he doing here?

And an even BIGGER problem? Rufus just walked back in without his pretzel. I guess he wanted a really thorough search. And if things couldn't get any worse, my ex boyfriend Chad just noticed me. I guess he was as surprised to see me here as I was to see him here.

"Nina?"

I gave him the universal SHHHHHH sign. But he didn't seem to get the signal.

"Nina? Is that you? Why are you hiding behind that shelf? I haven't seen you in forever, we need to catch up!"

Great, Rufus is coming my way. So I ran as fast as I could….again. I ran all the way to the food court. Just as I predicted. Fabian was beside me and Rufus was behind me. I looked all over for Mick, I couldn't find him. Then I realized that I had been gone for like 45 minutes. He probably thought I ditched him.

I went to the table that he was sitting at and there was a note there. Considering that Rufus was still chasing me I only had time to skim it but basically it was about me "ditching" him and how he doesn't like to be "stood up."

Great, the guy I like thinks I ditched him. Boy was he wrong. I just wish that he would have known. I grabbed my cellphone and texted him explaining what was going on. Hopefully he would get the message, like, literally.

So me and Fabian did a whole bunch of loop-de-loops around town and finally we lost Rufus. We flagged down a cabbie and told him to drive. After about 10 minutes of aimless driving we told him where to go. When we got there I saw Mick sitting on the steps to Anubis House looking worried.

As soon as I got out of the cab I ran to him and hugged him. He hugged me back thankfully.

"I'm so so sorry Nina. I was already at Anubis House when I got your message." He apologized. Then he saw Fabian with me. "So what's with Fabian?"

"Oh…he was in town already so he helped me get away from Rufus."

He looked grim. But then he put a forced smile on his face and said "Come here mate! I wanna show you something in our room." And then he looked at me and said "Be right back babes."

So they went inside and I stayed outside. It felt good to be outside and not be worried. But worry came as I saw Rufus walk out of the woods and come straight for me. Suddenly my legs felt like jelly and I couldn't move. So I stood there.

"Nina, I just want to talk."

Yea, sureee. But what else could I do but stand there and listen? Answer: literally, nothing.

"I've been sent to warn you! I am not the villain! I am not who wants you! There is a man, you know him very well. He wants to live forever."

It couldn't be who he thinks I mean…

"Yes Nina! You know who I'm talking about! Why else would he come all the way to England? In the same area where you are when you never told anyone where you were going?"

How did he know that?

"Anubis has informed me of everything. I did want to tip the scales of life, but like Victor Anubis has enlightened me! I only want to help!"

Then Mick came out. He looked pissed, and he got even angrier when he saw Rufus. It looked like he was about to punch him but I stepped inbetween them.

"I'll be going now." And then Rufus turned around and walked away.

"Why'd you let him go like that?" Mick demanded.

He looked angry…at me. I have a lot of explaining to do, but can I really trust Mick?

Nina: Of course I can trust Mick!

Starshine: I don't know….

Nina: And what did Mick do to Fabian?

Fabian: He…

Starshine: SHUT UP AND WAIT UNTIL THE NEXT CHAPTER FABIAN!

Fabian: Sorry….

Sorry. I was in a really good mood so I made this a little humorous.
