Chapter Three

Here's the third and final chapter to my second HOA fic! Read and review! Weaselette01 is an awesome Beta! Once again- I only own the idea!

The Next Day

The gang's decided to get right to work on figuring out how to solve the mystery. They agree to meet after school, in the library, to discuss what they need to discuss. They all agree that Eddie and Nina should get to the library first, so they can figure out what is known and unknown.

After School

Eddie and Nina are in the library getting what they need to get together for when they tell the others. Ten minutes later, the others knock on the library door and Eddie says, "Come on in, guys!" They enter the library and say "Hi!", sit down at a nearby table, and wait for Eddie and Nina to start talking. Eddie speaks first, "This is what we know: when we solve the mystery, Nina and I will be at full power, that we have to find a gold cross in order to solve the mystery, and that in order to be at full power, we have to perform a ritual of sorts, once we have the cross." Nina speaks next, with a book in her hand, "Here's what we don't know: what this book means by, 'full power', everything else relating to the ritual, where to find the cross that's needed to perform the ritual and how to use it during the ritual, but we need your help in solving the mystery and performing the ritual." The others look at Eddie and Nina and say, "Lets get to work!"

Over the next month they spend every waking moment either at school, doing homework, or finding out whatever they can about the mystery.

Friday Morning

The gang all sits around the table, eating breakfast, and talking about what they plan on doing over the weekend. They all plan to do their homework and spend time with their boyfriend/girlfriend. Amber tells them that she needs helpers for The End of Year Party. Nina and Patricia agree to help her with the party planning. The Sibunas, silently, plan to do the ritual the following day. They put their plates in the sink, for Trudy to clean up later, and head out the door to go to school. The school day is an uneventful one.

Saturday

The Sibunas go to Frobisher Library to get ready for the ritual. Nina and Eddie stand in the middle of the room, in front of one another and hold hands. They close their eyes, lower their heads and say the spell that's needed to start the ritual. Meanwhile, the others get in their places- in a circle around Nina and Eddie and do the same as Nina and Eddie, except they don't say a spell. A few minutes go by, then, the others remove their left hands from those in the circle and placethem onto the shoulders of Nina and Eddie. When they do, a bolt of lightening shoots into the sky, from Nina and Eddie's joined hands. The lightening bounces back to them and then circles around the other Sibunas. They stay that way for a few minutes and then everything goes dark. Then, five minutes later, everything goes back to normal. They look at each others faces and see that they each have a symbol of some sort on their foreheads. Nina has the Eye of Horus, Eddie has the Crook and Flail of Osiris, Fabian has the Sword of Bes, Amber has the Cross of Hathor, Patricia has the Scales of Ma'at, and Alfie has the Falcon of Khonsu. They quickly take out their cellphones and take pictures of someone else's forehead. As the last Sibuna takes a picture, the symbols disappear from their foreheads. They agree to look up the symbols mean the next day. Within the week, they know what they all mean. Each symbol represents a certain Egyptian god or goddess and them having the symbols appear on their heads means that they have the power of that god or goddess.

Saturday Night

Sibuna heads down to "The End of School Year" party and join their other friends. Everyone dances, eats, talks and has a great time. They welcome others to the party, like Nina's grandmother, Jasper, Trudy, and even Victor visits for a little bit. After chatting with each person, he eats, and then decides to go back to his office. Before doing so, he stops at Nina and Eddie and asks, "I'd like to speak to the pair of you, in the hall." They nod their heads yes and he leads them away from the commotion of the party. As they walk, they look at each other with worried and confused looks on their faces. He stops and so do they, then, he turns to them and says, "I know that the pair of your and your fiends are gods and goddesses. I also know that you're the Chosen One and that he's your Osirion." They nod their heads yes and he says, "I'll keep all of your secrets." They both thank him for his silence. Nina and Eddie go back into the party and Victor walks up the stairs to his office and sits down. They walk in and find the other Sibunas instantly. Fabian asks, "What did Victor want?" and they repeat what Victor said. They each breathe a sigh of relief to finally have him on their side, but they aren't sure if they can fully trust him. All is well in Anubis House.
