Hello again readers! I don't own HOA, and I don't even own the plotline for this story. H2ORikkiChadwick does. I adopted this story from her. The first three chapters will be pretty much the same, except that I might lengthen them a bit.
Actually, I will be combining her three chapters. It's easier for me to have longer chapters. Thanks to H2ORikkiChadwick for the idea as well as letting me adopt it.
Once again, I own nothing.
Fabian's POV
I opened my laptop and quickly turned it on. I had to find out more on the house and its mysteries. I searched Google for "House of Anubis," hoping those three words would give me good results. House of Anubis – Wikipedia, I read off the screen. I read the page as fast as humanly possible, wishing it would give me answers.
And it did.
Just not the answers I was looking for.
Nina's POV
I sat on the couch in the living room, bobbing my head to Taylor Swift's Enchanted (a song that always reminded me of Fabian). He walked in holding his laptop.
"Uh, Nina," he began nervously. "I have to show you something."
"Okay," I replied, letting Taylor finish 'Please don't be in love with someone else' (a silent plea to Fabian) before shutting off my iPod.
"Here." Fabian sat next to me and placed his computer in my lap. When his hand brushed my thigh, a buzz of electricity traveled through my body, just like every time he touched me. "Read this," he continued.
I glanced at the title of the Wikipedia page in front of me. House of Anubis. Huh. Didn't know it had a Wikipedia.
I read through it. My eyes went wide. "There's a TV show?" I exclaimed.
"Apparently."
"Whoa, whoa, wait:
'House of Anubis is a British teen mystery drama series, based on the Belgian/Dutch series Het Huis Anubis. The series was created by Hans Bourlon & Gert Verhulst, and premiered on Nickelodeon on January 1, 2011 in the United States.
The series follows a group of eight teenagers, who live together in Anubis House (named after the Egyptian god, Anubis), an early 1900s-era building that serves as a boarding house for an elite boarding school in the United Kingdom. Nina Martin (Nathalia Ramos),' "
I clicked on Nathalia's link.
"She doesn't have a picture," Fabian sighed.
"Why, you want to see my actress?" I teased. "Is she your secret crush?" Fabian laughed nervously. He so liked me. Right? "Let's just go to the Nickelodeon site," I suggested.
"Okay… .com …" he said while typing.
"There, House of Anubis."
"Uh, characters." He clicked on the link.
"Ha! I'm first."
"Well, it is ladies first."
I rolled my eyes and read: "Nina might play the innocent American, but not everyone in the house believes her. I mean, she did show up the day Joy disappeared. Patricia is definitely on the case and won't ease up until she gets to the bottom of it. Will Nina be able to figure out fact from fiction in Anubis House – a place where one secret leads to another? If she doesn't prove herself soon, her suspicious classmates just might send her packing back to the States." I stared at the last sentence. "Well, thanks guys…"
"I wouldn't do that."
I smiled. "It's kind of crazy, though, how much she looks like me…" We both gazed at the picture a long time, wondering how someone could look that much like me. Then we shook the thoughts out of our minds and read Amber's bio. "I'm sorry. I love Amber and all, but I highly doubt she could 'solve it all'," I remarked, shaking my head in disbelief.
"Well, you never know," Fabian replied, clicking on Mara's link.
After reading them
"So, let me get this straight," I started. I turned to face Fabian. "Mara is 'worth watching,' Patricia may 'soften up,' you're the 'cute one who might not be trustworthy,' we should 'keep an eye on Mick,' Alfie might not be all jokes, and Jerome could betray us. Well, I only agree with one of those, and not even fully. These people are crazy." Fabian laughed and stared at me for a while. "Uh, so… the first episode?"
Blinking, he seemed to snap out of his trance. "What? Oh, yeah…"
There turned out to be only four episodes so far. They ended right where our mystery did, too. But we did find out things we didn't know. For instance, the actress who played me was impaired in the skill of acting. The police were in on whatever was going on. And Patricia was more than out to get me… she was out to kill me.
"Whoa, Nina, look at this. The next episode comes out tonight."
"Then we'll watch it! We have to."
"Of course we'll watch it, but that's not what I mean."
"What, then?"
"The next episode hasn't actually happened yet. Whoever wrote this show… can see the future."
"Fabian, that's ridiculous! Maybe… maybe tonight's episode will be off." In truth, his words started to worry me.
He shook his head. "Everything else has been right so far, hasn't it?"
I bit my lip, knowing he was right. The whole thing was insane. And now we had to explain it to Amber. I loved her, of course, but sometimes she was… slow. It could take hours to explain. "So what are we going to do?"
Fabian opened his mouth and just closed it. Then he shook his head. "I don't know."
I sighed and realized how crazy my life was. So crazy they made a TV show out of it. What if –
"Well, well, well," a voice interrupted my thoughts. "Tell me about this mystery, won't you?"
That's where she left off, and where I'm leaving it for now. Like I said, I combined her first three chapters. I hope those of you who reviewed her original story will stick around and review for this. If I happen to get stuck, I'll ask her for an idea or two. After all, it's still her story.
Thanks again!
