Chapter 4 The cellar

A/N This chapter is going to be told from a few different perspectives and it's going to be about when the real Egyptian mysteries start

Kayden POV

When we got into our rooms, I had a little bit of an idea. Trudy said the cellar is out of bounds and im always up for a bit of snooping.

"Hey guys, do you fancy snooping around the celler later tonight?" I asked Ben and Danny.

"But its out of bounds."Danny pointed out.

"Exactly, it will be perfect."I replied.

"I'm up for it" said Ben

"Me too."Danny said.

"Great, shall we get anyone else in on this?"I asked

"What about Jenny?"Ben answered. Ben was the only person who called Jen:Jenny. I called her Jen or to annoy her Jenna. Most people called her Jen except a few people who call her Jennifer. When I said that I thought Jamie was cute, I guess Jen,Summer,Maia and Lexi are cute too but i'm incapable of thinking about them in any other way than family. It was surprising to find that none of us were gonna be traveling to school together.

"Yeah, good idea."Danny stopped my thoughts.

"I'll go up and ask her now."I got up and opened the door.

I went up the old staircase and knocked on the first door to my was Lexi who opened it.

"Hey, Kayden. What's up?"She questioned.

"Is Jen in this room?"

"No."She closed the door before I could ask which one she was in.I went to the door I knocked. Kia opened the door.

"Hi Kia is Jennifer in this room?"

"No she's not. Before you ask, I don't know which one she's in." She replied to which then she closed the door. I went to the door next to Kia's. I knocked for the third time. Jamie opened up.

"Oh Hi Kayden. I heard loads of people are calling you 'Ash', why?" She asked.

"Er, my middle name is Ashton. You can call me Ash if you like but is Jennifer in this room?" Jamie looked a tad offended when I said Jens' name.

"No. Bye Ash." She closed the door. I went to the last door and guessed what, I knocked. I had almost forgotten what I was going to ask when Maia opened the door.

"Hey Maia, is Jen in here?"

"Yeah"She opened the door fully so I could get into the room. Jen was lying on her bed listening to her ipod.

Jennifer POV

I climbed the stairs to my room. My feet were dragging for some reason. I opened the door and went face down onto my bed. I hadn't decorated my room yet but I had put 'JENNIFER' in the plastic light up letters above my bed. I was planning to unpack and decorate tomorow as ,of course, it was saturday tomorow.

Maia came in then with Peyton and sat on their own beds.

"I don't really like the look of those 4 girls."Peyton said.

"Neither."I agreed."I'm gonna listen to my ipod if that's okay, if you ask me something i'm not blanking you."

They both nodded in agreement and went back to chatting.

About five songs later I felt someone shake my shoulders.

Kayden POV

I went over to where Jen was laying and shooke(I think thats how you spell it!) her shoulders. Her eyes pulled her headphones off and sat up.

"Can I ask you something?"I nodded and followed me out of her bedroom. "Me,Ben and Danny were wondering if you would like to snoop around the cellar with us and possibly upstairs in the attic.

"Yeah, i'd love to!"She exclaimed."When?"

"After 10, we will come and get you. Be ready for then,okay?"

"Yep, see you then."

She went back into her room and I went back to my own.

Benjamin POV

Kayden came back after a bit and nodded to say she had agreed. Me and Danny had just talked about stuff like our old schools before Ash had come back.

At that point a booming voice shouted:"It is 10 o'clock, you have 5 minutes precisely and then I want to hear a pindrop!"Then there was the sound of a pin hitting the floor, my mum and dad had told me about that.

About five minutes later we were on the move. We snuck past Victors' office and into Jennys' room. She was sitting on her bed in leggings, a black top, a leather jacket and converse.

"Come on,Jen." Kayden whispered. She tiptoed across the room to the door and closed it behind herself quietly. We went down the stairs and in front of the dirty,white cellar door.

"How are we gonna get in? It's locked."Danny pointed out.

That's when Jenny stepped forward and said"Thank God you have me."She pulled a pin from her hair and twiddled it around in the lock until it unlocked. She pushed the door open. Kayden pushed to the front of us and looked back before he stepped down the small staircase.

Daniel POV

The cellar was really creepy. It had cobwebs and spiderwebs everywhere and bugs in corners. The dust was in the air. Books on the shelf had not been touched for years and on the desk infront of us, there were chemicals and test tubes.

Jen was the first to move. She went to the old wood bookcase. She dusted some of the cobwebs away."All the books are on Eygpt,Eygptian Gods and Godesses and Eygptian Mthology." She said reading the titles. Kayden then moved to her side and took the book with a sort of eye design, similar to the one on staircase.

Kayden read underneath the symbol "The symbol on the front on this book is called the eye of Horus."He was trying to open it but it would't budge"It won't open"He was about to put the book back but Ben stopped him.

"Hey one second."Ben pulled something from his back was a locket, an eye shape like the one on the book. He took the book from Ash and aligned them.

Suddenly there was a light and the book opened.

"Whoa what is that?"Jen asked.

"Something Dad gave to me,"Ben stated"He said 'just in case' nothing else."

"Why did you get it and not me?"Kayden looked offended.

"Probably because i'm more responsible and wouldn't lose it."

"Fair enough" Kaydens' expression softened a bit.

Jen took the book from Kayden"It says something here:

'Horus was the ancient Egyptian god with a falcon with two eyes. His right eye was the sun, Ra. According to myths the right eye was a symbol of protection, royal power and good health. Set, Horus' uncle tore Horus' eye out because they were rivalling for the throne. However, the god Thoth created a brand new eye and that is the eye of Horus. The new eye was then made the symbol of strength, victory and seeing. (Seeing means the art to see visions) Together The Eye Of Horus and The Eye Of Ra make the Hora(Derived from Horus and Ra). The Hora is an Egyptian myth that can be used for either god or evil.'

That must be the eye of Horus."

"Or it could be the Eye of Ra it doesn't describe them."Ben stated.

"Well it says something about that here:

'The eye of Horus is a pointed oval with two circles inside each other. The outer circle is black, the second is silver and inside the second circle is a stone. Horus. It is red. The eye of Ra is the same except inside the second cirlce is a blue stone,Ra. The reason for this is to confuse the wearer as red is usualy accosiated with Ra and blue with Horus.'"

"That's deffinitely Horus" I said.

"Yep. Guys, I'm gonna take this back to my room. Ben you keep the eye. We get out of here but we can go up to the attic if you like" Jen suggested.

"I agree, let's go." Kayden replied.

A/N: The next part in the next chapter, obviously. Please tell me if this is turning to rubbish!
