I sat up in an alleyway in a pile of 9 other people. My head was throbbing, my throat burned, and the smell of liquor was heavy around me.
"Ughhhhhhhh..." I heard from beside me, and saw Nick rubbing his head.
"Nick, you HAVE to help me. Help me wake my friends, you see we have to go back to Anubis house before someone notices we're gone!" I rambled on. I frantically looked around trying to find some clue of where we were. Scared, I began crying. "W-w-what am I going to do! I-i have no idea whaere I am, or how I'm g-g-going to get home or ho-" I was suddenly cut off by Nick taking my hands and calming me down.
"Shhhhh Joy. Just, don't worry. I have to be back at Osiris house anyways so we're both headed the same way. Meanwhile, you go get the van you and your friends came in, and I'll wake your friends." He kissed my cheek and I blushed. From behind me I heard a squeal and the sound of a phone camera shutter. I whipped my head around in shock to see Amber's face glowing like crazy. Then her face went from estactic to painful as she realized the pain in her head.
"Amber, you come with me to go get the van, Nick's going ot wake the others, and I really don't want to go alone." I said with pleading eyes. Amber nodded and we walked the block toward the Black Hole. As we came around front, we saw people being loadeed into cop cars out front, and empty cans of pepper spray all over the place. I exchanged glances with Amber, and we sneakily got into our van. I started it and drove off. When came back around the corner, I saw all the others with painful looks on their faces, and their hands rubbing their heads or fixing their clothes to cover up a little more. Looks of worry embarrassment and fear showed on everyone's faces. "Let's go home." I said and everyone piled into the van as I drove. It was a quiet ride, and when we pulled up to Osiris house, Nick jumped out.
"Bye, Joy. Good luck with... Well you know." Nick shot me a sympathetic smile and waved goodbye as we drove off to Anubis house.
We arrived to see a very worried Trudy wearing a bathrobe and slippers, with a green facial mask all over her face. When the van was parked she ran over to us.
"Dearies! Oh my, you've had me so worried! Where were you! It's almost 4 in the morning!"
"Sorry Trudy. We didn't mean to worry you we were just... Uh... Out..." Amber replied trying to find an excuse.
"Oh dear, you guys look messy, come inside and clean yourselves up, then meet me in the common room. You 9 have some serious explaining to do."
"Make that 10." I turned around and saw Nick in the doorway with his bags. "I'm moving into your house, and yes i was out with them."
"Oh dear, this is all so much!" Trudy said exasperatedly as she walked inside and sat down in the common room. The 10 of us stopped in the foyer and I saw Nina rub her stomach.
"Does anybody else feel a little queezy?" she asked, before running upstairs and into the bathroom, leaving the rest of us to ponder on how we feel. Seconds later, we all felt the same and ran to our bathrooms to throw up.
