House of Anubis: The Grail of Anubis

House of Anger/House of Babysitters

The bell had rang in Ms. Davidson's class the next day, and she asked Jax and Riley to stay behind.

"Oh, no." Riley whispered.

"It has come to my attention that, you two have cheated. On my test." Ms. Davidson explained.

"What? No, no we didn't. Riley, tell her we didn't!" Jax exclaimed. Riley hesitated. "Yeah, we didn't."

"Look," Ms. Davidson interlocked her hands. "she was your tutor-"

"We didn't."

Ms. Davidson sighed. She pulled out their tests. "Are you sure about that, Mr. Clarke?"

Jax held his test. He examined it. "This isn't my handwriting." He frowned.

Ms. Davidson pulled out an assignment that belonged to Riley. Riley closed her eyes.

"But it's hers." Ms. Davidson responded. "Riley, how could you?"

"I'm going to have to give you three days of detention, Ms. Miller. Mr. Clarke, since you did absolutely nothing wrong, you're getting off scot-free." She smiled.

Jax and Riley handed back their tests, and Jax stormed out into the empty hallway.

"Jax." Riley tried to catch up with him. "Jax!"

Jax huffed, and turned around. "Do you really think that I'm that stupid?"

"No, of course not. I just-"

"You just what?" Jax spat. "I just didn't want to see you fail."

"I don't need your help with school, Riley!"

"Clearly, you do!" Riley yelled, getting angry. "What?"

"Most of your answers on that test were wrong. I was doing you a favor." Riley replied, not seeing the error of her ways.

"You sure have a funny definition of favor." Jax scoffed. "You know what? If you're going to act like-like this person, maybe we shouldn't gotten together at all. The old Riley would've let me fail, instead of trying to make something real in my head, when you knew, it wasn't."

Jax walked away.

"So." Rhys put his hands in his pockets. "Any idea how we take care of a baby?"

"Eddie left a list of things with us." Leslie stared at it. "Too bad he has really bad handwriting."

Leslie threw it on the couch. Fiona began whining. "Ugh." Rhys groaned. "Well, what are you waiting on, mother duck? Pick her up. Swaddle her, or something."

"It's 'Mother Goose'." Leslie corrected. "Whatever! I promised Eddie that we would take care of his child, and that's what we're going to-" Rhys sniffed the air. Fiona stopped whining and she began smiling.

"Do you smell that?" Rhys asked. "Uch..." Leslie covered her nose. "You know Rhys, if you had to go-" Leslie pointed outside the door.

"It wasn't me." Rhys said. Leslie and Rhys looked down. "We have to change her diaper?" Rhys asked.

There was silence.

"Not it!" Leslie yelled. "Bollocks." Rhys picked up Fiona, and the pack of diapers and baby wipes Eddie had left.

"Alright, Fiona. I'm just going to change your poopy diaper. No biggy." Rhys began removing the velcro parts that held the diaper together.

"You're doing great, Rhys!" Leslie complimented.

"Ew, I don't want to touch this." Rhys complained. He picked up a pair of tongs, held the diaper with it, and placed it in the trash can. He was about to put it back, when he put the tongs in the trash can as well.

Robert was in his room, working on the star map. Sarah walked in. "Hey, any luck?"

"No, not yet." Robert sighed. He looked at her. "I could use some help."

"Oh, okay." Sarah sat down beside him on his bed. "So, I think I'm supposed to make a constellation here, but I don't know which one."

"Can I see that?" Sarah asked. She began connecting the dots that she saw. "What are you doing?"

Sarah was finally done with it. "Here you go." She handed him back his computer.

"Y-you did it Sarah!" Robert exclaimed. "I did, didn't I?"

"What is this supposed to be?" Robert asked. Sarah traced around the constellation with her finger on the screen, when words began showing up.

"Day, of, wedlock? The, Siring, Hour?" Sarah put space between her words as she read.

Robert shut his computer. "Who else do we know whose getting married?"

"No way. The day we're supposed to put the ingredients together, is the day of Trudy's wedding? Okay, that solves the 'day of wedlock' issue." Sarah gulped.

She frowned.

"Robert?" He looked at her. "What's the 'siring hour'?"

Another chapter! Hope you liked it! I'm up at three a.m making this story. That shows commitment.

What is the 'siring hour'?

Will Jax forgive Riley?

Sibuna.
