During school Joy called Amber to talk to her.

Joy: Thanks so much for being a devil to Nina. She totally deserves it!
Amber: B-but I really don't want to do that again, it just feels so horrible.
Joy: Oh, I'm afraid you will have to do way more than that!
Amber: What?
Joy: You have to torment Nina for the rest of the day!

Amber rushed to Nina in class and warned her about the bullying.

Amber: Nina, I am so sorry about being mean to you, it is what Joy said.
Nina: I figured. You would never do that to me! You are not that kind of girl.
Miss Denby: Ok class, bring your business studies project outside in the main hall. The 7th Graders are going to come to "sample" them.

Everyone walked to the hall and set up their stalls. While that was happening, the Nina told the Sibunas straight away after the winner was announced they would go to the tunnels. Just then, the 7th Graders had arrived, and were already eating the food.

Girl: This Egyptian food is delicious!
Boy: I like these medieval cookies! Inside, they a name of someone killed or significant in the time!

By the end, all the 7th Graders had to vote for the the stall with the most delicious and history-related food and put it in a ballot box. Miss Denby counted all the votes, and got the final result.

Nina: Please be Mara and Jerome! We need to go down to the cellar.
Miss Denby: The winner is.....Patricia and Eddie!

They both groaned and reluctantly walked onto stage to collect their prize. After all of that, everyone was dismissed, and Sibuna rushed to the cellar.

When they reached Anubis House, Amber noticed a really shiny shield.

Amber: That is so pretty! It would definitely suit me. How come I never saw it before?
Nina: Actually, that shield could help us! We can protect ourselves with it when that light shines again!
Fabian: Nina. You genius, genius girl!

Fabian lifted Nina up and hugged her.

Eddie: Come on guys! We need to hurry up and find the mask.

Everyone rushed down to the cellar, all the way to the light.

Nina: Alright, here goes.

She entered the numbers and then the bright light shine on Sibuna. Everyone held up the shield. After a while, Patricia popped her head up to see.

Patricia: We passed!
Nina: Look! There is a passageway! I wonder what it could lead to...
Fabian: Well, what are we waiting for? Let's explore!

The group walked down the tunnels and eventually came across a door.

Amber: Great. How do we open this door?
Nina: Guys, look for a scan.
Eddie: Guys we can just-
Patricia: Or any codes or passwords.
Eddie: Guys, you know that-
Fabian: Explore this part of the tunnels for anything!
Eddie: GUYS!

Everyone looked at him.

Eddie: Or, we can just open it!

He pulled the door, and it easily opened.

Fabian: Yeah, I was going to tell them that as well.

Everyone entered the room, and were fascinated by the string stretched around it.

Nina: I guess...we just have to go to the other side?
Amber: Yeah....
Nina: Wait! If you look closely, you can see the-
Fabian: The mask!!!
Nina: You know what that means....
Patricia: This is the last task before we get the mask!

Everyone cheered, and Eddie was the first one to try the task.

Eddie: It seems simple enough...
He touched one rope, and let go straight away.

Eddie: Ow!
