Chapter 7
Nina's POV
I woke up with a sharp pain in the back of my head. I reached back to feel it, and I realized I couldn't move my hands. My eyes popped open, and I looked around. Eddie and I were tied side by side in two, plastic chairs. We were in what looked like an abandoned warehouse. There was a cold, metal floor, and the ceiling was a bunch of wooden boards that were so crooked, I was afraid they would all come crashing down.
"Nina?" Eddie asked in a whisper. I turned to look at him, but before I could say anything a man walked in. (Rufus).
"Good good, you're awake" he said in a voice that sent goosebumps up my arms and back. Then the room filled with four more people. These people, we knew. Victor, Ms. Andrews, Ms. Denby, and Ms. Devenish.
"YOU!" Eddie screamed at all four of them.
"Yes. Me," Ms. Denby said in a quiet, but eerie voice.
"READ!" Victor yelled, and threw a piece of paper onto Eddie's lap. Then, the five left. I studied the page. It looked like it was ripped out of an old book. There were also notes scribbled on it. We both began to read it silently.
THE CHOSEN ONE. The chosen one is a descendant of Amneris. Amneris is a descendant of Isis and Osiris. She was King Tutankhamen's lover. The Chosen One is born on a certain month, day, and time, all of the same number. 7/7, 7:00 is Nina Martin. The Chosen One can see ghosts and spirits.
THE OSIRIAN. The Osirian balances out the Chosen One. He is the Chosen One's opposite, and protector. The Osirian and Chosen One usually share a brother/sister relationship. The Osirian is linked to the Chosen One.
Well, that explained a lot. Nope. Not really.
