This is my first story on Fan fiction, and I know this is a ridiculously short chapter, but I couldn't wait to get it down! I'm hoping to update pretty often as I've got the first few chapters outlined So I hope you enjoy it! Oh, and all the characters belong to Nickelodeon and the writers. Only the plot is mine!
Fabian Rutter sat on his bed, staring down at his phone. It had been two weeks since he'd almost helped to destroy the world, two weeks since Ammut had been defeated. He had been putting off this moment for far too long. He pressed call and listened to the dial tone impatiently. Finally, he heard the call being picked up, and a familiar voice on the line.
"Fabian? Is that you?" Nina's muffled voice asked. In the background the robotic voice of an announcer rang out.
"Nina? Where are you? Your voice sounds all funny?"
"Hold on a sec- Damn that's the- Sorry!" Nina's voice was suddenly silenced as the call was cut off.
Putting his phone back in his pocket, Fabian considered what had just happened. It sounded like Nina was in a train station, but why would she be? Hadn't her main reasoning for not returning to Anubis been to look after her Gran? Why would she be travelling around America?
Suddenly he was roused from his quandary by the noisy entrance of Eddie. He charged through the door like a bull, skidding to a wobbly holt right in front of Fabian.
"In a rush there Eddie?" Fabian teased. Then he saw Eddie's face. It was the same face he had worn the day of K.T's arrival, the time he had his first 'day-mare'. It was the face he pulled when his weird Osirian part was affecting him.
"You know how Nina and I have some freaky Egyptian destiny connection?" Eddie began shakily. Fabian nodded stiffly.
"Well during last year I had this weird feeling the whole time, like a part of me was missing. At first I thought it as just the break up with Yacker, but it was still there once we got back together. Then yesterday it started feeling different, like something was changing. And about 5 minutes ago, I started feeling strange. Like I was almost whole again. So, I know this sounds really creepy, but do you think there's any chance Nina is back in England?"
"Yes." Fabian affirmed.
"I know, it's crazy but it was the only thing I could- wait , did you just say yes?" Eddie whirled around in shock.
"Yes," repeated Fabian "I honestly do think that she's back. I just spoke to her on the phone and she sounded like she was at a station. And if your Osirian senses are tingling, then that just confirms my suspicions."
Eddie grinned and stopped pacing the room, throwing himself back on his bed. He leant over to the bedside table the two boys shared, pulling out the Eye of Horus.
"So what do we do?" he said, twisting the chain around his fingers fondly.
Fabian pushed down the burning jealousy he felt at seeing Eddie make that simple gesture. It was just her locket. It wasn't Nina Eddie had twisted round his little finger. He tried to think logically.
"I think it might be time to call a certain group of people back together."
