House of Anubis: The Real Ones - Book 1 - COMPLETED.
"Sarah, do you know where I'm supposed to go next?"
"Go next? You're leaving me?"
"Yes, but I'm somewhat of a superhero, I'm saving lives right now. Don't ask how. It's too complicated."
"Cool! In my dream, after I saw the rainbow, I saw strange monsters under my bed. Are you here to fight away the monsters?"
I sighed. What a cool metaphor she used for a seven year old who didn't know. "Yes. So I just need to crawl under your bed?"
"I think so. But, before you go, I want you to have this." She ripped her painting off of her easel and handed me a rainbow. "To remember me."
I lightly touched the rainbow. It had dried really fast. Was she using fast dry paint or something? It seemed like it. I folded the paper and put it in my back pocket. I thought of something to give her back in return. For the rainbow, and for showing me where to go. "Now, I know it's not much, but I want you to have this ribbon bracelet that I made myself. It matches the ribbon in your hair." How convenient. I had made this bracelet when I was bored in bed a couple of nights ago with Amber's extra fashion supplies. I took it off my wrist. Next to it was The Treasure Was You bracelet Fabian had gave me for Christmas. I missed him. I wondered what he was doing right now.
Her little eyes seemed to glow. "It's so pretty and it matches perfectly! I love love love it! Thanks, um, what's your name?"
"Nina, Nina Martin." Another rule broken. I got on the ground, ready to slip under her bed. "But, you won't remember me or my name, and I won't remember you or your name when we meet."
"Why not?"
"Because-" I said, my waist down under her bed now, "-I am the only one who is Real here."
