Nina's POV

I glanced at the worksheet. Then I realized I hadn't taken only a worksheet, but I took Mr. Winkler's "to do list". I turned to head back to the classroom, to return it, but something caught my eye...

I saw "attend secret meeting at 1:00 A.M." sprawled across the paper in very sloppy handwriting. I froze.

"Hey," a voice said from behind me. I whirled around. Just Fabian.

"Oh, hey," I said. "Look what I found." I shoved the paper into his hands and pointed to the task.

"A secret meeting?" Fabian asked suspiciously.

"Yep. And, it under tonight's date," I said.

He looked up at me. "So, Sibuna tonight?" he asked.

"Sibuna," I said, cover my right eye.

"Sibuna," he responds, mimicing my motion. We quickly find everyone and tell them.

~That night~

We met up at around 12:30. All the boys were there when Amber and I arrived. Patricia, Mara, and Joy followed shortly after.

"Okay, here's the plan," Fabian said. "Five of us stay up here and alert us through the walkie talkie when the society comes down. The rest of us will go down to the cellar and watch the society, see what they're up to. Who wants to stay up here?" he asked.

Immediately, Alfie, Amber, and Jerome raised their hands.

Jerome defended himself with, "That cellar creeps meet out."

"Who else wants to stay?" I asked. Everyone was silent.

"Come on, guys," Fabian said, irritated. "Two more people."

"Why doesn't one of you two stay up here?" Joy asked.

"Because, they're like, the best at this. The smartest," Amber said. I smiled slightly at this.

"Still, I don't see why Nina can't stay up here and Fabian go down. Or vice versa." Joy said again.

"No. Fabian and Nina are both going," Alfie said.

"I'll stay up here. We can snoop Victor's office during the meeting. Make sure you guys tell us when the meeting is over," Patricia said.

"I'll stay," Joy said. Thank you, Patricia! I thought.

I opened the passageway and crawled through, but not before I heard a couple gasps. I smiled slightly.

When we reached the room where we hid last time, we all sat down. Amber brought her big bag, so Mara brought it. Fabian asked for a blanket and we snuggled up together. Under the blanket, Fabian reached for my hand and held it. I layed my head on his shoulder.

Mara and Mick shared a blanket too.

"Nina, pick up, over," I heard. I picked up the walkie talkie.

"I'm here, over," I said.

"Jason's coming, over," Patricia said.

"Roger, over," I said. I set the walkie talkie down and we all did the little head stack thing so we could all see. Jason came down the steps and pulled on his robe. One by one, all of the members came down and pulled on their robes.

"Welcome, society members!" boomed Victor. "We are starting a new mission. To garuntee we will live forever!"

I raised my eyebrows. Still trying to live forever, are we?

Next chapter will be about Patricia, Joy, Jerome, Alfie, and Amber's discovery *hint, hint*
