"I" Patricia is next to me just as I was about to go to bed "want to say thank you" she got to talk to Joy who told her and the others that her parents removed her to spend more time with her, what a shocker! No big conspiracy theory!
"Save it" snapping at her "I'm done with you and the rest of the people in this house" looking her straight in the eye "I stay away from you all and you stay the hell away from me" turning off the lamp, I pretend to go to bed. I hear her huff before going to her own bed.
If your wondering why I'm still awake, it's because I'm going up to the attic. The night before I was getting dreams of being in the attic, so now I'm going up into it.
After a few hours, I get up and go up to the attic staying silent. Another good thing about living with military parents, is knowing how to sneak past them and the high tech security system they keep in your house when you want to sneak out.
Grabbing the Bobby pin, I head upstairs after unlocking the door. Closing it as quietly as I can, that presence from before I sense again. Looking over, the woman is on the stairs offering me a smile before walking upstairs.
Turning on the flashlight, I go to the attic where I see the lady motioning to a small jewelry box. Grabbing it, I open it to find this necklace—it has the symbol of the Eye of Horus upon it. Like the symbol you are taught in school and not that other symbol of the Frobisher-Smythe's.

It begins to glow and I notice from the side that there's this circle spot. Placing the necklace on it, this secret door opens having me stumble in before jumping at this portrait with a woman upon it whose eyes you think glow red but they don't. No, it's just a portrait and the woman looks like me but her hair is shorter and yeah.
Looking down around, this place is like a hidden compartment. How do I get out? I'll figure that out after finding this jewelry box that won't open, frowning I set it aside when there's this letter that has my name on it. When I mean by my name I mean my name.
Breaking the wax seal, I read the letter which is like a riddle.
On the same day of the same time of the same month, the true descendant of Isis is born.
Upon entering the House of Death her power shall rise but won't be awoken until the Cup of Ankh is complete.
For those who attempt to love her shall fail, for her heart belongs to the immortal Tracker.

That is weird, I mean the numbers ten ten ninety three? What does that mean? Paragon? Shaking my head, I put the paper into my pocket before looking at the portrait taking it off of the wall to look at it.
Behind the portrait there are these hieroglyphics on the bottom left, quickly taking a photo of them with my phone I put the portrait back. Pint necklace begins to glow and there's this one spot that also glows, so I place the necklace there and the secret door opens.
Stepping out, I hold the jewelry box close before heading back downstairs. I open the door looking around before walking out and closing the door quickly.
Back in my room, I put the jewelry box in one of my storage bins. Patricia is still asleep, I'm pretty sure. But until then, I take off the necklace and put it into the bin for personal stuff. Well everything is personal, I mean feminine hygiene stuff.
In the morning, I head down to get some breakfast "I tried apologizing" I hear Patricia's voice "she won't accept it"
"Why would she?" Fabian asks "you kept bullying her and she asked her dad to do something she didn't have to just do we could talk to Joy"
"Who" Mara adds "left her phone behind as her parents took her out of school all of a sudden you really pushed it this time Patricia"
Entering the room, they all look my way as I grab an apple before leaving "Wait!" Looking over at everyone as I have a resting bitch face "Emily" Fabian motions to a seat beside him "please sit, have a proper meal"
"I'd rather eat shit" motioning to everyone "than spend another moment with any of you—I hope Mr. Sweet is able switch me out of this house and into one where people are I don't know...nice" narrowing my eyes on each of them "stay out of my way and I'll stay out of yours" taking a bite of my apple and leaving, the room is silent.
When I get to school, I head to the library since I need a refresher on Egyptian hieroglyphics. When I find a book, the symbols I found translated to "Under the eighth stair" What's under the eighth stair? Another clue? A puzzle piece? What? Guess I'll have to go looking tonight.
Going to French, the latest language I'm learning. I sit next to this one kid who is by himself, he looks my way "Problem with me sitting here?"
He shakes his head "Go ahead"
I notice those from my house come in and see me sitting with whoever this is, putting on my headphones I begin to email my dad, sister and friends from America or the Crew. The Crew have been curious about how things are going in England. From what I know Dom, Brian and Mia are in Mexico. Giselle and Hans are in China. Roman is somewhere along with Tej, and last I heard about Santos and Tego—they are in Monte Carlo I think.
After school, Kelly brings me to her car and we drive off campus and to the nearby store to get some clothes for this weekend "Okay so" Kelly recaps what happened "you gave your other roommates Joy's home number and they spoke to her"
"Yes"
"They backed off" she continues "but you still hate them?"
"Patricia got to them that they think I was involved in this whole conspiracy situation" waving my hand as I grab this hot white bralette "about this Joy, it doesn't matter what they say. They all thought I had something to do with her disappearance, so now I'm on my own in that house. It doesn't matter how many times they apologize, first impressions and peoples actions are everything. I don't trust them and I never will"
"Remind me never to get on your bad side" she says before grabbing this tube top "ooh! I love this! What do you think?"
