Hey,Sadie here. Yep. That's me, Sadie Kane, the girl who saved the world. The girl who recited the spell that took down the giant snake, the girl who got both boys she wanted and yes, the girl who was always in danger. The girl that has been sitting on the couch for two months doing almost nothing.
It was on one of these days, I can't embers the precise date, i bet carter can.
(Okay, okay carter.) Carter says it was the 15th of August. Anyway I was lounging around on the rooftop, perfecting my tan, when Walt, my boyfriend who is really a god of funerals, walked calmly up.
'hey, eh, Sadie?' he says slowly.
I shot to my feet, packing. Omg omg,what if he wanted to dump me. He just stands there, with his good looks absolutely shining in the sunlight. Walt is tall and built to play basketball. He almost never wore the proper magician clothes, but instead board shorts and singles, unlike me who always have to prepare for magic.
Carter says that's because trouble follows me around, but anyway.
'Yes, Walt?' I say meekly.
Walt gestures behind him, towards Manhattan.
'Oh. 'Walt wasn't breaking up with me, he was pointing out the massive bolts of lightning hitting the top of the empire state building that nobody else seemed to notice, even though it was a sunny day.
'Sadie, someone using magic on the empire state building, and it's not a magician.'
I usually trust Walt to know, he does have a god in him, but this was just ridiculous.
'Ha-ha Walt, very funny.' I laugh sarcastically.
Walt regards me carefully. 'This isn't a joke, you and carter need to go over and check things out. '
I shake my furiously and start to walk away, down the stairs into Brooklyn house.
Brooklyn house is a mansion and the headquarters of the 21st Nome.
'Sadie!' Walt snaps as he strides to catch up. 'This is serious. Something is over there.'
'Even if there is, which there can't be because no one apart from a trained magician would be able to cast that much lightning, the Manhattan Nome can look after it. '
Walt grabs my shoulder and spins me around to face him. God is he cute when he's angry. 'But that's the thing, is there even a Manhattan Nome? Amo's has always said...'
I cut him off, with a sinking feeling in my gut. 'Manhattan has other problems, other gods. Omg Walt. Could there be other gods?'
'Yes, it's possible.'
I glare at him. 'What are you waiting for? Call a meeting, get carter back from his date with Zia and kidnap Amo's if you have to. This is very serious Walt, why didn't you tell me sooner?'
Walt rolls his eyes but heads back upstairs to our portal.
