Hope you enjoy it!

"Mom, why are you taking away my phone! We're going on a vacation! I need my phone to get in contact with my friends and stuff!" I complained as my mother removed my phone from my hands and packed it in her suitcase.

"First of all, Melanie, are you aware how much it would cost to contact your friends from over there? A lot of money. Second, you know for a fact that I said no beach!" My mother, Nina Martin replied.

"But, mom,-"

"No buts!" My mother said sternly, I sighed and began walking out of the room, "Hurry up now Melanie, we need to catch our flight."

I yawned as we got off the plane and called a cab. I'm almost pretty sure I fell asleep in the cab and my mother carried me into the hotel room. I wouldn't be surprised either, because for a thirteen year old, I only weigh about 98 pounds.

I dreamed peacefully that night, even though I was still mad about mom taking my phone away. The last thing I remember about my good dream was Cassie laughing over me falling over and hurting myself.

But that was where the nightmare began.

"Melanie…" I heard a voice whisper. I shot up in the hotel bed and saw my mother sound asleep in the one next to me.

"Melanie…" came the whisper again.

"Who's there?" I whisper-shouted extremely frightened.

"The eye calls to you Melanie, and the secret will remain buried within…" The voice whispered, slowly fading away. I screamed and broke out into cold sweat.

"What eye? What secret!" I screamed. I covered my ears to get the voice out of my head. I closed my eyes just as my mother woke up and came to put her arms around me.

"It's ok, Melanie. Everything's ok, I'm right here! It was just a nightmare." My mother comforted me. She held me in her arms and sang to me. I don't remember the song she sang, I only remember that it put me to sleep almost instantly.

When I woke up the next morning, my mother was out of bed and all changed sitting next to me and stroking my hair.

"Are you OK? You were pretty frightened last night; you want to tell me what happened?" She asked.

"It was nothing," I said quickly nodding my head and sitting up. I got out of bed and got changed into a white T-shirt, black skinny jeans and my favorite pair of converse.

"We have to go straight to the museum so I can talk something over with the head of the Egyptian Artifacts exhibits. But we can grab a bite to eat right after," My mom explained. I nodded my head, grabbed my navy blue coat and we headed out the door.

England seemed like a very…elegant place. Everybody I saw was very formal and polite. Much different from America. We arrived at the museum within minutes and I automatically told my mom I was going to go off exploring. She gave me back my cell phone so if I got lost or something I could call her, and only her. She made that clear enough.

I was walking through an exhibit on Ancient Rome, something about The Coliseum, when I ran into someone. More like they ran into me actually.

I looked down at the person who had fallen on the ground and offered my hand. They took it and righted themselves on their feet. I took a glance at them.

It was a girl, about my age, 12, 13 years old possibly? She had Dark brown hair and hazel eyes, but she had pale skin and a bright smile. She wore light shades of make-up on her face and had a very casual dress on, which happened to be pink, a color I despised.

"Sorry 'bout that," The girl said in a heavy British accent "I can't find my mum and dad, or my younger brother anywhere! I thought maybe they came this way…guess not,"

I just nodded my head and gave a shy smile to the girl.

"Where are my manners?" The girl said and held out her hand "I'm Susan Lewis, but everyone calls me Suzy."

"Melanie Martin," I said taking her hand and shaking it.

"Ooh! Maybe your mum and dad can help me find mine! Do you know where they are by any chance?"

"No, my mom's at a meeting at the moment somewhere in the museum… and I don't exactly have a dad." I admitted.

"Oh, my goodness, I'm, like, so sorry!" the girl apologized.

"It's ok," I replied.

"Would you care to hang out with me? This museum is, like, really easy to get lost in and I'd rather have a partner with me around here,"

"Umm, sure," I said and smiled. I think I just made my first British friend.

So we walked around the museum and talked for a while. She found my American accent hilarious apparently and I told her I found hers intriguing.

"So, what's it like having a younger sibling?" I asked fascinated.

"Ugh, it's horrible! It requires, like, so much work! And he's 12! You'd think he'd act more mature for his age but no! Plus, he constantly likes to pull pranks on me or scam me or whatever."

"He can't be that bad!" I replied smiling at her.

"Oh trust me it is," she said and rolled her eyes. She looked to her left and noticed something "Charlie!" She cried and ran toward a boy who looked about our age but I could tell he was younger. He had a much darker skin tone then Suzy did, but he still had the same brown hair and hazel eyes. I walked over to the two.

"I'm guessing this is your brother?" I asked Suzy.

"Yes, indeed he is. Charlie, this is Melanie; Melanie, this is the bane of my existence, Charlie," Suzy introduced me. Charlie rolled his eyes.

"What a lovely sister I have, don't you think?" Charlie replied sarcastically and stuck his tongue out at his sister. He just grinned at me before turning back to Suzy.

"Susan, Mum and Dad have been looking all over for you, come here," He said and looked over at me, "And I guess you should bring your friend here too."

So the three of us walked down a few hallways and into a cafeteria where I saw a pretty blonde woman and handsome dark skinned man. They saw Suzy and they're eyes lit up. The blonde woman, who was easily in her early 30's, just like my mother, ran to embrace Suzy.

"Dear, why did you run off like that? You had me and your father worried sick!" She cried.

"I'm ok, Mum, I just got lost. Anyways, I made a new friend!" Suzy said waving me over "Mum, Dad, this is Melanie Martin, from America."

As soon as Mr. and Mrs. Lewis heard the name Martin, they seemed to go blank, as if remembering something, but they soon turned and smiled at me.

"Well, then, nice to meet you. Would you like to join us for some breakfast? We're about to head into town, would you're parents let you come along?" Mrs. Lewis asked me.

"Umm, I'm not exactly sure; I'd have to check with my mom…" I replied nervously.

"Well, would you like us to come with you to help you find her? Maybe we could all go out together?" Mr. Lewis suggested. I nodded my head and smiled nervously once again.
